It's ideal for anyone who is going to be or wants to be invovled in an agile project: developers, product people, managers, and of course, project managers. Course Description: On a software project, uncertainty is certain. The customer will change their mind, a 'must have' feature will be discovered, deadlines will move, or an unexpected competitive threat will need to be countered. The agile approach to project management allows the team to easily adjust to these changing conditions in order to produce the most valuable software possible. This experiential workshop teaches the fundamentals of agile project management, and is recommended for everyone who w c s ^ !ԡ o3;33 3 Urban Edibles Development Meetingf 33 3 JqAeA Emerging Business Networking Event: Building/Scaling Your TeamEmerging companies face a tough fight for growth.

Once a program fault is discovered, evolutionary algorithms are used to generate program variants until one is found that both retains required functionality and avoids the defect in question. Standard test cases are used to represent the fault and to encode program requirements. Once a successful variant is discovered, structural differencing algorithms and delta debugging methods are used to minimize its size. Initial results will be presented on a wide range of C programs, including security vulnerabilities such as integer overflow, denial of service, format string, and buffer overflow. Finally, the talk will describe how the automatic repair mechanism can be combined with anomaly intrusion detection to produce a closed-loop repair system.

Moose's recent rise in popularity has led to a surge of declarative class-building and accessor-generating modules, but the real power of Moose comes from its metaclass fundamentals, not from the syntactic sugar of has(). Using Moose as a foundation makes it easier for your code to grow and scale. I'll cove r some of the concepts in Moose that the MOP (Meta-Object Protocol) makes possible, especially roles and type constraints. If we have time, I'll go through a simple Moose extension, focusing on the mechanisms Moose provides to help your code play nicely with others'. If the first sentence of this description was news to you, you should at least read the SYNOPSIS of Moose, and if you can get through Moose::Manual and Moose::Manual::Concepts, so much the better. I'll expect a lot of questions, but I hope to move past "what is an object" pretty quickly. By the end of the night I hope you'll have a better understanding of the depth of what Moose provides, and why has() is only the tip of the iceberg. I don't expect that everyone will immediately understand every concept provided – my goal is to impress you so much with Moose's awesomeness that you're willing to follow up later on the documentation pointers that I throw out. 2009-04-09 01:53:00http://pdx.pm.org/2009-03-25 17:24:59 92009-04-09 04:00:00 of nflrx~ &,28>DJPV\bhntz "(.4:@FLRX^djpv|p://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/1503399/ ] Ever wanted to control your toaster from Twitter?

Presented by ABPMP. Association of Business Process Management Professionals "Wicked problems" are problems so complicated you essentially cannot even define the problem. A formal definition for a wicked problem is that it is "unsolvable by classical, linear problem-solving processes." Wicked problems, which have been understood in the context of the planning world for some time, are now increasingly being recognized as an issue in organizational change management and business process management. Implementing a BPM initiative is at times a wicked problem.

In the last 6 months the economy, access to capital, the cost of talent and the opportunities for innovation have all changed. We think it’s time for the relationship between entrepreneurs and the State of Oregon to change, too (the state needs jobs & entrepreneurs need capital!). Hear stories of successful, local homegrown companies that have either bootstrapped or raised funds and then grown themselves to success. Most importantly, though, the goal of this event is to prove to the State of Oregon that there are enough jobs, compelling ideas and entrepreneurs to warrant an immediate investment of $100,000,000 for start ups that want to hire local talent. We are working to raise a $100M fund that makes small investments in Oregon-based companies who hire Oregon-based employees. Now, in 2009. Not next year or some point in the future. In growing these new startups, we are investing in innovation, creating jobs and building Oregon’s brand with in C S C CubeSpace!

Once a program fault is discovered, evolutionary algorithms are used to generate program variants until one is found that both retains required functionality and avoids the defect in question. Standard test cases are used to represent the fault and to encode program requirements. Once a successful variant is discovered, structural differencing algorithms and delta debugging methods are used to minimize its size. Initial results will be presented on a wide range of C programs, including security vulnerabilities such as integer overflow, denial of service, format string, and buffer overflow. Finally, the talk will describe how the automatic repair mechanism can be combined with anomaly intrusion detection to produce a closed-loop repair system.

But which, if any of these options should you consider? What are the alternatives? Topics that will be discussed: • Update on the patent broker marketplace - how has it evolved and does the economic downturn provide more opportunities for monetization or less? • How to decide which patents j e to revisit your strategy and business plan? Especially given the challenges of the current economy? And are you either a tech company, or NOT a tech company? (OK - yes, everyone qualifies for that last one.) If the answers to the above questions is "yes", come learn about FastTrac® GrowthVenture™, a Kauffman Foundation entrepreneurship program that will be offered jointly by OTBC and the OEN to help growth companies. Not to be confused with FastTrac® TechVenture®, GrowthVenture™ targets companies that are a bit beyond the startup stage, and into some revenue (a few hundred thousand to a few million). GrowthVenture™ takes you through a process of reassessing and building your strategy. And GrowthVenture™ is NOT limited to tech startups. In these challenging economic times, it's critical to be sure your strategy fits the new challenges. GrowthVenture™ will help you get there. 2009-03-05 20:00:00http://www.meetup.com/otbc-events/calendar/9736589/2009-02-14 12:29:55 <2009-03-05 21:00:00 5 5hown how to get that data in to the map.

and the Oregon State Procurement Office will have experts on hand to provide insights and answer questions on what can be a bewilderingly complex process.\n\nResearch Drives Us\nWe recently took a surv ey and found that over 63% of software decision-makers thought that obtaining a state or federal contract would enable them to hire the most employees. To our surprise, this was more popular than obtaining venture capital, tax credits or enhanced private lending.\n\nWe Want to Help\nSince the current economic crisis can be traced back to a lack of jobs, and since the stimulus packages present new job opportunities, and since we have federal & state experts that are willing to help, we decided to be part of the solution instead of whining about the state of the economy.\n\nOur Trainer s\nShipley Associates are well-respected as the best private support for obtaining federal contracts\nShipley Associates has:\n• Worked with 43 of the top 50 Fortune 500 companies\ n• Developed a virtual proposal center for a Fortune 10 client\n• Trained over 30,000 people worldwide\n\nThe Oregon State Procurement Office establishes and administers contracts for goods and services on behalf of state agencies, state universities, select non-profit organizations, and local governments. They will give very practical advice for working with the ORPIN (Oregon Procurement Information Network) system, which is Oregon's #1 resource for viewing Public Agency Opportunities.

Are you a geek looking to serve a nonprofit all that bacon knowledge you have bubbling over in your head? We will try to match nonprofit needs and give you a few hours to talk one-on-one with a technology know-it-all. NTEN 501 Tech Club and NetTuesday join forces with Day On. Day On connects nonprofit organizations that need advice and assistance with volunteers who are ready to help. Their first project was Geeks Day On, a day of service during MLK Day, Monday, January 19, 2009 where geeks offered free technology and Internet communications advice and assistance to nonprofit organizations. u They have agreed to offer their brain power for a higher calling. This is a test run of what we hope will convert into an live help desk.

Since this is a community organized event, you'll be buying your own drinks, but it will be just as fun! We'll be pairing up with Portland Beer and Blog for this event, and it will be a great opportunity to chat with others about sxsw. We can find out who else is going and talk about ways to stay in touch at the event. If you are new to sxsw, you can get some tips from the experienced attendees. Quite a few of us are planning to use Shizzow to keep in touch at the event to find the best sessions and the best parties.

Attendees will learn how to generate and interpret operating system (Linux) and database statistics, and the effects of some system tuning techniques. This involves studying the well known Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) benchmark called TPC-C ( www.tpc.org ). TPC-C was developed by a committee, representing all major players in the database marketplace, to be representative of typical online enterprise databases. TPC-C consists of a precisely defined schema and 19 queries. We will review the schema and queries and demonstrate how each tuning technique affects their performance. We will use an open source package that the speaker has developed, called DBT-2, which many DBAs have found useful.

___________________________________________________________
About the program:
Portland has a productive and creative open source community, and great business advantage awaits companies who can use open source code to make a better proprietary product cheaper or faster. However, traditional thinking divides companies into two camps: open source companies, which embrace the open source business model and have no proprietary products, and proprietary software companies, which may want to use open source software either in the development process or as part of the product, but which often dare not risk doing so because of the legal risks.
Portland's open source community is vibrant and energetic. Can proprietary companies tap into that creativity while avoiding the legal pitfalls?
A panel of local entrepreneurs will discuss new law on open source license agreements, how local technology companies have successfully (or not so successfully) incorporated op
social venture launchers, all designed to help move good ideas into action.
This month's topic is "Hunger." Hear from gleaners, food educators, school gardeners, state offices, food security policy makers, nutritionists, CSAs and others who are feeding our neighbors---and feeding them well. Join this important conversation to learn where your work overlaps and supports this goal.
In conjunction with the forum, nine local artists have converted refrigerators into creative statements about hunger. Their provocative art installation opens Friday, November 7th from 6-8pm at the Urban Grind and will remain on display through the month of November.

About the program:
Portland has a productive and creative open source community, and great business advantage awaits companies who can use open source code to make a better proprietary product cheaper or faster. However, traditional thinking divides companies into two camps: open source companies, which embrace the open source business model and have no proprietary products, and proprietary software companies, which may want to use open source software either in the development process or as part of the product, but which often dare not risk doing so because of the legal risks.
Portland's open source community is vibrant and energetic. Can proprietary companies tap into that creativity while avoiding the legal pitfalls?
A panel of local entrepreneurs will discuss new law on open source license agreements, how local technology companies have successfully (or not so successfully) incorporate leadership team and IT business and technology leaders to apply open source methodologies to software development and business communities.
Bill McQuaide, Executive Vice President of Products and Services, Black Duck Software
Bill will review what you need to know about how to protect your software value in a merger or acquisition and how to accelerate software development through the managed use of open source and third-party code.
Carl Ruggiero, Trilinear Technologies
Carl has real world experience integrating open source software into commercial products, including managing legal issues and investor concerns. He will discuss his approach and what he has learned from these experiences.

In this global economy, the economic meltdown happening in the U.S. is also affecting economies around the world. China, Oregon’s largest export country in 2008, is being negatively affected. We often see bad news coming out of China, such as:
* "China’s Slowdown Sends out Aftershocks”,
* "Jobless Migrants Hit 20 Million as China’s Unemployment Rises”
* "China’s Small Factories Struggle”, etc.
We have assembled a panel of seasoned business people and professionals who have been working and/or traveling in China to give us a closer look at what is really going on over there and share their insights with us. We will also learn about any implications to the Oregon economy due to the current situation in China. Please bring your questions and join us!

show us a way of doing this which will benefit both ourselves and other people.
THE GLOBAL POTENTIAL OF THE GUIDELINES
The 16 Guidelines are more than simply words: they are an inspiration for taking action in all kinds of
ways to benefit oneself and others. Many workshop participants continue to use them not only on a
personal level, but also in their working lives.
Since they were first launched in 2007 they have inspired a range of practical projects – in schools,
colleges, businesses, healthcare organisations, drug rehabilitation centres and prisons – all around the
globe. They are currently being translated into over 6 different languages, and a range of multimedia
resources for children, young people and adults is under development.

In this global economy, the economic meltdown happening in the U.S. is also affecting economies around the world. China, Oregon’s largest export country in 2008, is being negatively affected. We often see bad news coming out of China, such as:
* "China’s Slowdown Sends out Aftershocks”,
* "Jobless Migrants Hit 20 Million as China’s Unemployment Rises”
* "China’s Small Factories Struggle”, etc.
We have assembled a panel of seasoned business people and professionals who have been working and/or traveling in China to give us a closer look at what is really going on over there and share their insights with us. We will also learn about any implications to the Oregon economy due to the current situation in China. Please bring your questions and join us!

These systems were used for computer graphics, design, and general numeric problem solving, but most of these solvers were domain specific and thus of limited usefulness.
Bertrand is an equational programming system whose purpose is to build constraint satisfaction systems using simple equational rules. Bertrand has an purely declarative semantics and an absurdly simple syntax, yet it is a powerful and expressive language, capable of solving problems in a large number of domains including graphics, word problems, electrical circuits, or -- with the right rules -- virtually any mostly-linear domain.
Since this is the Functional Programming Study Group, this talk will cover the underlying equational programming language of Bertrand and ways in which it could be extended to make it more powerful.

PJUG meetings start with some time to eat and socialize (pizza and beverages are provided), followed by the featured speaker, then some time for Q&A, discussion, and sometimes a drawing to give away swag. :)
Though we like knowing how many people to expect, you don't *have* to RSVP, on Upcoming or otherwise. Go ahead and just show up!
Many people also go for drinks afterward, at a location decided on the fly (more often than not, Jax on 2nd).

I call him Dante Vatican. (That's his Ron Mexico name. Suiting, isn't it?) Everyone else knows him as that unpronounceable twitter handle @xolotl or the otherwise normal-sounding Nate Angell. Me, I like ALL of his personalities. Nate has worked with a lot of open source platforms over the years, right now working as Client Evangelist at The rSmart Group, which focuses on the education industry. He has an unhealthy love for Drupal, which is why the story of the boy raised by wolves now concerns you, my fellow Beer and Bloggies. This Friday, starting at 4pm at the Green Dragon, Nate will be extolling th # be 90 minutes. Lots of good information to be covered. If you know anyone else in the community who might benefit from this next meeting, please pass this newsletter along.

PJUG meetings start with some time to eat and socialize (pizza and beverages are provided), followed by the featured speaker, then some time for Q&A, discussion, and sometimes a drawing to give away swag. :)
Though we like knowing how many people to expect, you don't *have* to RSVP, on Upcoming or otherwise. Go ahead and just show up!
Many people also go for drinks afterward, at a location decided on the fly (more often than not, Jax on 2nd).

A major finding uncovered was that the unemployed all shared a common fear of being out of work for a period of time. Some struggled with finding a new job, or they didn�t know how to write their resume because they had been employed in their last job for many years.

So mark your calendar, RSVP, and start honing your idea. We hope to see you on Feb. 28! 2009-02-28 21:00:00http://www.meetup.com/otbc-events/calendar/9689811/2009-02-14 12:07:35 <2009-02-28 23:00:00 # #pm until at least 7pmhi W 3s3 3 JtkOTBC - HR discussion with Iris SasakiBring your questions about Human Resources to this brown bag lunch and join the conversation with OTBC coach Iris Sasaki.

Sexy and intuitive, isn't it? Makes you wonder why the majority of sites still require you to create clunky usernames and passwords, just for them. Well, with VidoopConnect, we make any site's login process sexy, and let the users choose how they want to sign in. Like to use your email address with Google, Yahoo!, AOL, or ANY old email address? Cool. Prefer to use your Facebook or MySpace account? Go for it. Do you follow the Aaron Hockley method and prefer to only sign up on sites that accept OpenID? Got it covered. Even if you sign in with your Gmail account on one si ~ te but decided to use the Facebook signin for another, with our single profile capability, we'll detect that and default the signin method you prefer when you return to any site using VidoopConnect.
For our customers, a better user experience during the registration and login process makes for more registrations and better membership retention rates. We also offer reporting capabilities to sites implementing VidoopConnect so that they can see who their users are, how they're logging in, and can react to their customers' needs better. It's easy to implement and unlike our competitors, we offer a solution based on open rather than proprietary standards.
This has been our top secret baby for a couple of months now, so we're really excited that on Friday at Beer and Blog we'll be able to show the product in action. There will even be a round of drinks on us.

The goal is to have as ma ny cities around the world on February 12, 2009, have events to gather people to have fun, raise awareness, and raise funds for charity:water.
By rallying together globally, under short timescales, for a single aim on the same day, the Twestival hopes to bring awareness to this global crisis. charity: water is a non profit organization bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing nations by funding sustainable clean water solutions in areas of greatest need.
Right now 1.1 billion people on the planet don’t have access to safe, clean drinking water. That’s one in six of us. Unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80% of all sickness and disease, and kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war. Many communities in developing nations often have a plentiful supply of clean drinking water just below the ground, but no way to get to it.

I will also be presenting as an example a small (as in tiny) project that I will be doing using breakout boards to make prototyping possible. The workshop as always will be $25 and participants will walk away with a breadboard and all components necessary to build a bare bones "Sanguino" during the workshop. It will also include other items including a a protoboard and socket to move the design to something more permanent. It is my hope that in between this months focused workshop and the fabrication workshop people can collectively look at how the hardware design can be improved on (see: similar designs such as lada p 90 minutes.

Join us for this free event on December 10th to explore diverse ideas and new models for “financing the good.” Panelists representing banking, angel investing, micro-philanthropy, and grant funding will discuss innovative approaches for funding social change that reflect shifts in the way their organizations do business. Specifically, they will highlight opportunities for "average" Portlanders to obtain funding for their social change projects and visions. During the workshop segment, learn tips and tricks for obtaining one of Portland's community building or environmental grants, discover how community currency can fund social change, talk with a lawyer about how to apply for a 501(c)(3), learn how a social stock market generates seed funding for launching good ideas and how to implement "sustaining strategies." Panelists: Mark Moffenbier, Shorebank Pacific Mark Holloway, Social Venture Partners Portland Amy Pearl, ChangeXchange Social Stock Market Joy Hunt, Vision into Action Grants Workshops Angela Southwick, Neighbors West-Northwest Neighborhood Grants Emily Rice, Community Watershed Stewardship Program Environmental Grants Janelle Geddes, Metro Grants John Brown, Rooms for Peace Alan Rosenblith, Community Prosper, community currency Nancy Murray, Community Development Legal Clinic The forum is sponsored by Portland-based nonprofit, Springboard Innovation.

The purpose of the forum is to empower "average" Portlanders with the resources and tools needed to take action to solve problems our society is facing. 2008-12-07 00:00:00http://www.springboardinnovation.org2009-02-09 20:26:23 >2008-12-07 01:00:00 '09BKT]fox#,5>GPYbkt} (1:CLU^gpyDԡ. )3-33 3 Portl(ԡ4 I#3K33 3 Beer and Blog: What the Shit?

NOTE: Submission de(? c 3U3 3 Jr5Hunger: Springboard Social Innovation ForumThe Springboard Social Innovation Forum is a new monthly event designed to engage community members in solving local challenges with lasting solutions. This free event promises a mix of conversation, collaboration, and professional suppo rt for social venture launchers, all designed to help move good ideas into action. This month's topic is "Hunger." Hear from gleaners, food educators, school gardeners, state offices, food security policy makers, nutritionists, CSAs and others who are feeding our neighbors---and feeding them well. Join this important conversation to learn where your work overlaps and supports this goal. In conjunction with the forum, nine local artists have converted refrigerators into creative statements about hunger. Their provocative art installation opens Friday, November 7th from 6-8pm at the Urban Grind and will remain on display through the month of November.

Each of the six storytellers will tell an eight-minute, unscripted story related to this month's theme: Just Can't Get Enough; Getting Stuffed and Being Stuffed. Intermission entertainment includes belly dancing by Bellypalooza and food, wine and beer will be available.
Presenting Our Storytellers:
San Francisco author and Porchlight co-founder, Beth Lisick. Beth Lisick is the author of two books, Everybody into the Pool and Helping Me Help Myself.
Sarah Gilbert was once an investment banker. Her t g the voters of the metropolitan region.Under David's leadership as Council President, the Metro Council has undertaken new initiatives to preserve natural areas and protect water quality, support thriving neighborhoods, create jobs and economic prosperity, and improve our transportation network. He's a native Portlander.
Bellypalooza consists of members from local belly dancing troupe Tigerlillys and solo-dancer Miriam. They enjoy shiny objects, phat beats, and womanly forms.
Back Fence PDX is the kissing cousin to San Francisco's Porchlight Storytelling Series.
Back Fence PDX is an evening with six people telling their true eight-minute stories based on the month's theme. The stories must not have been performed publicly prior to their Back Fence PDX telling. We are also a blog with a weekly story by a writer, blogger, or someone with an unusual story about the topic.

Dave Jarecki founded Breakerboy Communications to provide strategic messaging, copy and grant writing services to small businesses and non-profit organizations. Writing workshops started in 2005. He likes working with kids because they're smarter and funnier than adults. Recently, a student in one of his workshops said, I have three weekends between now and next Sunday.
Sadie Medley has her finger in a whole bunch of pies. By day, she is a freelance graphic designer and creative thinker-chick. By late afternoon she can be found teaching people to stay calm while standing on their heads. In the early evenings she sings opera, and lately, she is obsessed with becoming a voice over actor. Her mutable, and restless personality make this type of life feasible.
David Bragdon became the Metro Council's first regionally elected President on Jan. 6, 2003, representin ransition to the dotcom world looks prescient in retrospect. Now she works from home managing financial blogs for AOL and writes away the wee hours after her three little boys fall asleep.
Slim Moon still thinks of himself as a punk rocker, after all these years. After 17 years at record labels as founder of Kill Rock Stars and later briefly working as an "A&R guy" for the Warner Music Group, Slim is happy to now be pursuing his true calling in life - helping artists he loves - in the way that best suits him - artist management. Notable artists that Slim has worked with in his life include Bikini Kill, Sleater-Kinney, Elliott Smith, Miranda July, The Decemberists, The Gossip, and Deerhoof, among literally hundreds of others...
Tina Newton is the founder and color genius behind Blue Moon Fiber Arts, the company that makes the perpetually popular sock yarn, Socks that Rock. Tina has a fertile imagination and the practical creativity to support it.

Unfortunately, caring is something society doesn’t value much. We value numbers, and data. And we almost think caring is a weird thing to say. What does it even mean? This forum will bring caring to the forefront, and talk about how it's a wonderful thing to care, and to say you do. Do we talk about that on our websites? Do we ask others if they care? Do we acknowledge when they do? How do we help people care? When we care, do we act?

CHIFOO is the Computer-Human Interaction Forum of Oregon. We are the local chapter of the ACM, the Association of Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group devoted to computer usability. We usually meet the first Wed. of the month at Cubespace, but always check the schedule at chifoo.org..
Designing for a community is much harder than designing for a solitary individual. A digital habitat includes all the tools and the practices that enable a community to work and reproduce itself. It’s produced collectively, even though it’s experienced individually.
This talk will explore how digital habitats vary across different contexts such as a company intranet, a mostly face-to-face community like CHIFOO, and a mostly online community like Planet Ubuntu.
We’ll discuss some case studies of communities and the evolution of their digital habitats, exploring fundamental design tensions, kinds of tool integration, and the nature of technology stewardship.

How do you develop, grow, and maintain a functioning self-organizing team? It's not magic, but it doesn't just happen either. Effective self-organizing teams rely on personal and interpersonal effectiveness. In this hands-on workshop, we'll discover the secrets to developing the skills you need to succeed and lead on a self-organizing team.
By rallying together globally, under short timescales, for a single aim on the same day, the Twestival hopes to bring awareness to this global crisis. charity: water is a non profit organization bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing nations by funding sustainable clean water solutions in areas of greatest need.
Right now 1.1 billion people on the planet don’t have access to safe, clean drinking water. That’s one in six of us. Unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80% of all sickness and disease, and kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war. Many communities in developing nations often have a plentiful supply of clean drinking water just below the ground, but no way to get to it.

Bertrand is an equational programming system whose purpose is to build constraint satisfaction systems using simple equational rules. Bertrand has an purely declarative semantics and an absurdly simple syntax, yet it is a powerful and expressive language, capable of solving problems in a large number of domains including graphics, word problems, electrical circuits, or -- with the right rules -- virtually any mostly-linear domain.
Since this is the Functional Programming Study Group, this talk will cover the underlying equational programming language of Bertrand and ways in which it could be extended to make it more powerful.

These systems were used for computer graphics, design, and general numeric problem solving, but most of these solvers were domain specific and thus of limited usefulness.

WHY: Saturday Academy has served more than 145,000 children across the Portland metro area since its founding in 1983. Its goal is to nourish the natural curiosity, innovation, and wonder in children. Saturday Academy connects kids with technology and professionals in their fields, otherwise unavailable to them.

We'll meet Just north of the Hawthorne Bridge on the Eastbank Esplanade (just south of the fire station). There's ample street parking in the area and it's accessible from several bus lines (4, 6, 10, 14, 33) from the stop on the east side of the bridge. The plan will depend on the wishes of the group, but I was thinking we'd start with the inner eastside, then walk across the river and shoot a bit downtown. All levels/abilities of photography skills/experience are welcome . This will be a super-informal event, just walking around, taking some photos, and hopefully learning from each other.

Portland Open Beer Club is a spinoff of Open Coffee Club.
The Open Coffee Club was started to encourage entrepreneurs, developers and investors to organize real-world informal meetups to chat, network and grow.
After running Portland Open Coffee Club for several months, we've decided to organize a additional, complementary meetup that
- has beer instead of coffee
- meets around 5pm instead of 10am
- still offers the same low key, agenda-free format centered around meeting like-minded individuals and talking about technology, the web, and startups.
Meet us for the Portland Open Beer Club at Bailey's at 5pm, Thursday April 10th! 2nd Thursday each month.

The Android G1 is a TMobile phone whose operating system, Android is based on Linux and was developed by Google. It’s a very open smart-phone platform that rivals the iPhone. While I’m no expert in Android or mobile platform development, I will discuss my experiences in Android development and demonstrate the toolchain used to develop software for the Android. I’ll outline the basic features of the platform, with a focus on the factors that make its openness so powerful: * the inter-process communications mechanism whereby applications can advertise the services they offer and other applications can take advantage of those services, * The open-source Java, Eclipse, and Linux-based toolchain, * the OpenIntents project. This will be an informal demonstration and discussion.

3. Based on the responses, we sent out a call for a community gathering to explore grassroots, relationship-based action to support each other.
4. We created a process intended to address the expressed need for building connection with others at a personal level, learning more about what others are doing, and sharing skills for trust-building and facilitation.
5. For a variety of reasons, far more people came than anticipated: over 100, and we had to turn some away for lack of space. This meant the space was cramped, but also that energy was very high. Clearly, lots of people are ready to act in this way. Our process seemed to work for some people and in some ways, but not others.
Now, our goal is for people to have the skills and confidence to help their networks become circles of trust-based sharing and support, and to link those together in a growing ecology throughout Portland.

Frank Wagner's presentation will cover three major areas of emphasis where a consultant can add immense value to the organization and increase the likelihood that an intended change takes place effectively. These areas are: -- Helping the organization add the missing piece in the strategy/future picture; -- Building in the proper amount of struct }

Prior to moving to Oregon, Tom was Asia Pacific marketing director at Arbortext - a Norwest VC funded software firm that was acquired by PTC in 2005. Working from Tokyo, Tom managed a network of resellers in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Australia. Before Arbortext, Tom held product marketing positions with Fuji Xerox, Xerox and Hewlett-Packard.

Despite tough economic times, one small Oregon company is about to open its first European office. Another has increased its sales 75% with the help of a contract in Saudi Arabia. Still another company has just returned from a trade show in Germany with several new distributors signed.
The benefits from increasing international presence include growth opportunities, market diversification, and increased competitiveness. Despite the benefits, we still encounter resistance to overseas marketing. A sale abroad will cost more, take more time and involve more risk than a domestic transaction. Fortunately, a host of resources are available to help businesses overcome these challenges.
This presentation will go over some of the reasons for going global, review some trends in global trade, and go over some of the resources available from state and federal governments to help businesses increase their revenue through exporting.

The Lightroom 2 Workflow Evening
Presented by Mark Fitzgerald
Lightroom is changing the way photographers work. Its intuitive interface creates a streamlined workflow that allows photographers to catalog, process, and output individual and groups of raw files much more efficiently than when using the Bridge/Adobe Camera Raw/Photoshop system. Join us for an informative evening as Mark Fitzgerald, author of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom and Photos hop Workflow Bible leads us through the complete Lightroom workflow.
In this session you will get a close look at the Lightroom workflow from import to output. You’ll see how files are organized and sorted, and some of the best methods for using keywords and metadata to find the file you need when you need it. Then you will learn to use Lightroom and the powerful Develop module to edit single files or groups of files quickly and efficiently. Finally, you will see how Lightroom and the three output modules are used to easily create slideshows, prints, and web galleries, and how to export files for other uses using the Export command.
Mark Fitzgerald is the owner of The Digital Darkroom in Portland, OR. Mark is an Adobe Certified Photoshop Expert and author of Photoshop CS3 Restoration and Retouching Bible, and Photoshop CS4 After the Shoot. You can learn more about Mark at www.ddroom.com.

Even with increasing competition for keywords and rising cost-per-visits, PPC campaigns are the dominant force within our vibrant space. The reasons for this fact are pretty straight forward:
1. Your ads can be posted, or revised, almost immediately,
2. You ads appear when and where you want them to,
3. They are easy to implement, and can get instant results,
4. They can precisely target your most desired audience,
5. They are the most measurable form of advertising today,
6. Your measured ROI makes them highly affordable.
However, issues of ad quality, landing page design, Web site functionality, product demand, and inventory can hinder your PPC efforts.

Adapting these successful international examples for implementation in Oregon gives us a scalable, replicable model whose economic and environmental impact will be tremendous.
Planned system components include thermal solar collectors, mass thermal storage for heating and anticipated cooling, combining water to water and ground-coupled heat pump technology, waste heat recovery, PV arrays and biofuel boilers for boosting and back-up. A distribution system of hydronic insulated pipes will deliver hot and chilled water for space heating, cooling and domestic hot water to the school, several hundred nearby residences, and commercial buildings.

The agenda for the evening includes a presentation by Ms. Lacey Riddle, Focus Oregon Organizer for Focus The Nation who will present a project based on proven solar thermal techniques- The SunnySide Neighbourhood Project Overview.
Sunnyside Neighborhood Project Overview
Sunnyside Neighborhood Energy (SunNE) is conceived as a comprehensive solution to local thermal energy needs. SunNE is a project of Northwest Neighborhood Energy (N2E), a new non-profit incorporated in Oregon. SunNE will eventually be structured as a community-owned district energy (DE) utility powered by renewable sources that will serve Sunnyside Environmental School and the surrounding historic neighborhood and commercial areas. The project is modeled on existing mid-sized DE utilities in Sweden, Denmark and Canada, which use solar thermal storage and biofuel boilers 0824970.xml&coll=7 ]
Richard Taylor sees a pattern. The University of Oregon professor of physics is leading the way with internationally recognized research into fractals—curious patterns found in nature that repeat themselves. Taylor's startling discoveries show that these patterns-within-patterns may significantly reduce stress and have interesting implications for psychology, medicine, and even the semiconductor industry. Taylor has applied his studies to art, showing how fractal patterns in the work of abstract expressionist Jackson Pollock can distinguish a real Pollock from a fake. Come hear about this amazing intersection of art and science.
Richard Taylor, PhD, is an associate professor in physics, psychology, and art at the University of Oregon. Transforming lives by erasing academic boundaries might be why Taylor was named Outstanding Teacher in Higher Education for 2005 by the Oregon Academy of Science.2009-01-28 03:00:00http://omsi.edu/sciencepub2009-01-13 18:53:17 <2009-01-28 05:00:00 ml ), world oil supplies peaked in 2004. Many have heard of the concept of 'peak oil', but do not fully understand the reality. Peak oil, conceptually, simply means that the oil that is left in the ground is more difficult and more expensive to obtain. This presentation will discuss the economic and social implications of peak oil as well as the need and rise in green collar jobs. Green-collar work may be one of the greatest opportunities as our society and economy change from one being oil-based, to focusing on alternative forms of energy.

This will be the world premiere of a game-changing advancement in the
development of desktop graphical user interfaces (GUIs). FreeTUIT
removes the verbosity, tedium, and confusion from GUI development and
provides a unified syntax for widget layout and configuration which
supports good software design practice without getting in the way of
rapid application development.
FreeTUIT is a syntax and runtime for concisely declaring the layout and
configuration of GUI widgets (such as forms, toolbars, buttons, and
dialogs). The freetuit interpreter drives a unified object layer which
is accessible from event callbacks. This takes you from a blank page
to a static demo of the layout with zero setup and allows desktop
applications to be developed and deployed faster than web applications
by simply removing the HTML, CSS, XML, HTTP, Javascript, Database,
Network, and User Agent components.2008-12-18 03:00:00http://pdxlinux.org2008-12-16 06:38:39 :2008-12-18 05:00:00 questions:

Keeping Focus in Tough Times
Please join us on December 11, 2008 to help sh le energy and clean technology companies. And ensuring that our public finance system is stable, adequate and efficient enough to meet these goals.
No other state has anything like the Oregon Business Plan and the Oregon Leadership Summit. One of Oregon’s greatest strengths is our ability to bring together leaders of all backgrounds to plan for our common future.
Please take a moment to browse the site and register for the Summit. Once registered, you will be able to participate in an online discussion forum reflecting on initiatives that we will be putting forward and offering your own thoughts and ideas.
Nothing is more important than planning for our economic future. We hope that you will join us on December 11th to help keep Oregon moving forward.

Oregon and the nation are going through difficult economic times. Fortunately, we have a forum for discussing these challenges and a plan for tackling them.
For seven years Oregon’s business, elected and community leaders have been gathering annually at the Oregon Convention Center to make plans for reaching the Oregon Business Plan goal of quality jobs for all Oregonians.
2009 is no time to let up. With a recession looming, we must take immediate action to keep our economy on track while staying focused on our vision of building an innovative and sustainable economy.
On December 11, we will be presenting ideas of how to jump-start our economy in light of the current downturn. We want to hear your ideas as well. We will also focus on the key initiatives that are critical to Oregon’s long-term economic strength: investing in education, industry innovation and transportation.

If you prepare and give presentations, here's a great free opportunity to learn how to ratchet up your presentation effectiveness. Garr Reynolds, author of the book "Presentation Zen" will discuss some of the topics in his book in a free webcast at 2pm on Monday, December 15. The book is very good. I suspect the webcast will be well worth one hour of your time.
If you'd like to listen to the webcast in with a group of others, and perhaps discuss and compare notes after the program, feel free to join us for the webcast at OTBC.

I think what they are up to is valuable to the Portland community and her tech scene, so I said yes. If you’re not yet familiar with Open Source Bridge, they are a group of local techies that want to continue OSCON now that they are not coming back to Portland. But, they’re growing into much more than that. Here’s what they say on their about page:
We are advocates, developers, and Portlanders making the world better with open source technology.
Open Source Bridge will bring together the diverse tech communities of the greater Portland area and showcase our unique and thriving open source environment. We will show how well Portland does open source and share our best practices for development, community and connectedness with the rest of the world.
We’re setting out to change the structure of conference planning: asking interested people to come together at a Town Hall meeting, and share their collective experience and wisdom. Following the lead of the Linux Plumbers Conference, we’re enlisting curators for our conference sessions, planning mini-confs for critical topics and including unconference sessions. The focus will always be on increasing interaction between participants and engaging everyone in the content. 2008-12-06 00:00:00http://beerandblog.com2008-12-05 23:06:12 ; ;b.2008-12-06 02:00:00

Richard Taylor sees a pattern. The University of Oregon professor of physics is leading the way with internationally recognized research into fractals—curious patterns found in nature that repeat themselves. Taylor's startling discoveries show that these patterns-within-patterns may significantly reduce stress and have interesting implications for psychology, medicine, and even the semiconductor industry. Taylor has applied his studies to art, showing how fractal patterns in the work of abstract expressionist Jackson Pollock can distinguish a real Pollock from a fake. Come hear about this amazing intersection of art and science.
Richard Taylor, PhD, is an associate professor in physics, psychology, and art at the University of Oregon. Transforming lives by erasing academic boundaries might be why Taylor was named Outstanding Teacher in Higher Education for 2005 by the Oregon Academy of Science.2009-01-28 03:00:00http://omsi.edu/sciencepub2009-01-13 16:24:00 <2009-01-28 05:00:00

Title: OpenTheory: Package Management for Higher Order Logic Theories
Speaker: Joe Hurd, Galois, Inc.
Abstract:
Interactive theorem has grown beyond toy examples in mathematics and program verification, as demonstrated by recent successes such as the Gonthier's formal proof of the four colour theorem and Leroy's verified compiler from a realistic subset of C into PowerPC assembly code. As the construction of large programs led to the development of software engineering techniques, there is now a need for theory engineering techniques to support these major verification efforts.
In this talk I will present the OpenTheory project, which has defined a simple 'article' format to represent theories of higher order logic. Theories in article format can be written by one higher order logic theorem prover, compressed by a standalone tool, stored and read by a different theorem prover. Articles naturally support theory interpretations, which leads to more efficient developments of standard theorie

This presentation is an invitation for you to visit Marisha's garden through slides and philosophy. She will be discussing how you can work towards self-reliance in produce if you have property to work with as well as guerrilla tactics to grow more food and flowers in the greater Portland area. As petroleum becomes more expensive, fruits, vegetables,and other goods will become increasingly more expensive to transport into residential areas. This workshop offers an opportunity to create cultural change through gardening.

Social issues that may seem far apart, such as ecological stress and women's rights for instance, have common roots. In the modern context, much of the political unraveling that we are witnessing can be understood in terms of the limitations of growth of modern industrialism.
The growth of fundamentalism and militarism, the decline of civil liberty and the environment, all of these problems are going to get worse if we do not find a new means to address them.
There are real solutions to these problems, but they are going to involve a quantum leap, both in thought and in action, beyond our current methods of political engagement. The solutions themselves are not even terribly difficult, they are simply well outside of our current range of vision and will.

While we are daily witness to the powers of progress manifest in the extraordinary mechanical technologies we have developed in the industrial age, we remain woefully unaware of the most basic causes of social change in our society. Our lack of social awareness does not result from the difficulty of understanding social problems, it results from the active repression of such awareness.
The political resistance movements that developed in the twentieth century were adapted to conditions of economic growth. When an economy is growing, petitioning through political and legal means to assure increasing access to rights and wealth for traditionally disenfranchised groups met with a measure of success, and that success was the foundation for further movement building. Those movements cannot, as they are currently structured, guide us through the coming age.
Many of the problems that we see as having purely political roots are strongly influenced by economic and ecolo

In the Maritime Northwest, it is possible to grow all our own produce year-round with limited time to establish a system and limited effort. As petroleum becomes more expensive, this sort of system can provide an example to support our evolution to a more sustainable society. Marisha Auerbach specializes in how to convert properties from grass to to a perennial forage system. A perennial forage system functions much like a natural ecological system, and yields year round produce with minimal work. These systems are developed to meet the needs of the inhabitants on site. Marisha provides most of her responded? Why is our culture so blind to ecological limits? Humans as individuals are capable of intelligent planning, but America blunders along as if there were no tomorrow. Why is our culture so blind to its own future? Many large societies seem to share the same lack of vision. Why is this, and what can be done about it?
What if the solutions to our environmental crises were apparent? Are the solutions difficult, or simply outside of our current range of vision? Real solutions mean moving beyond corporate greenwashing and politics. We need to create a citizen's movement that can fundamentally restructure our economy and our culture. Alexis Zeigler, author of the new book, Culture Change: Civil Liberty, Peak
Oil, and the End of Empire will conduct a presentation and discussion of these issues.

From the back cover of Culture and concludes with possible demand-side solutions, including recommendations from Portland’s Peak Oil Task Force.
Mr. Kaufman has led energy efficiency and renewable energy efforts with the department for 25 years, helping to make Oregon a national leader. He headed Oregon's efforts to adopt the nation’s most energy-efficient building codes, and received the American Planning Association Professional Achievement Award for getting 26 local governments in the Portland Metro area to jointly adopt solar orientation and solar rights ordinances. At various times he has managed the agency's Residential and Business Energy Tax Credit programs, public buildings programs, and new energy technologies efforts. He was lead staff to the Portland Peak Oil Task Force and was primary author of the report, and has made presentations to numerous audiences nationwide. 2009-01-22 02:00:00http://www.portlandpeakoil.org/content/world-oil-supply-turning-point-presented-john-kaufman2009-01-12 02:24:26 :s2009-01-22 04:00:00

Presented by Climate Solutions, NEBC, Renewable Northwest Projects and the Software Association of Oregon
This year is presents a historic opportunity for Oregon to enact climate change policy. Governor Kulongoskib has recommended a significant package of climate bill for the 2009 legislative session. The Bills focus on energy efficiency, creating carbon markets, creating new funding and incentives for renewables such as solar, energy efficiency and new clean transportation infrastructure and incentives. We believe that it can drive economic opportunities for many of our members. We would like to give you an opportunity to learn more about it and get involved if you are interested. Creat ing a "smart grid" to save energy creates new opportunities for the software industry.
We are working with a local group, Climate Solutions, that works to find practical and profitable solutions to climate change. They are part of an organized campaign to pass the legislation. Climate Solutions is engaged in organizing business community support. We would like to invite you to a meeting to learn about the Governor's Climate change package and what the business community can do to get involved. We will have speakers to talk about the details of the package and we will also discuss the business campaign that we are organizing to support the Governor.
At this meeting, we will have speakers to explain the Climate Package, the business case and the how you can get involved.

Sponsored by the Computer Science Department, Portland State University
This series will consist of 5 to 6 presentations aimed at PostgreSQL database users who wish to learn more about tuning their systems for performance. Attendees will learn how to generate and interpret operating system (Linux) and database statistics, and the effects of some system tuning techniques. This involves studying the well known Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) benchmark called TPC-C ( www.tpc.org ). TPC-C was developed by a committee, represent ing all major players in the database marketplace, to be representative of typical online enterprise databases. TPC-C consists of a precisely defined schema and 19 queries. We will review the schema and queries and demonstrate how each tuning technique affects their performance. We will use an open source package that the speaker has developed, called DBT-2, which many DBAs have found useful.
Mark Wong has an MS in Computer Science from OGI and several years of experience developing and executing various database systems benchmarks. Most relevant to this series are his years spent at the OSDL developing and using a fair-use derivative of the TPC-C benchmark to characterize system performance of open source software. He now works at HP StorageWorks on their NAS products.

3 3 JsAPerl Mongers: chromatic presents, "How a Virtual Machine Works"Perl 6, Perl 5, Pyt V hon, Ruby, Lua, JavaScript, Java, C#, and many other languages use virtual machines as their execution environments. Instead of compiling directly to machine code, they rely on the presence of an ideal machine built specifically for the language – porting the language to a new architecture often means only porting that virtual machine.
Does that sound complicated? It's not. Some of the details of very
efficient and effective virtual machines are, but the general ideas are
simple.
This talk explains the important components of a virtual machine and
how they fit together. Examples will come from the world of Perl 5,
Parrot, and Perl 6, but the concepts apply to many languages and VMs.
You may never need to hack the guts of your favorite language, but
understanding how they work can help you become a better programmer.
As always, the meeting will be followed by social hour at the LuckyLab.

The global high-tech sector has gone through a series of profound changes in the past couple of decades (Internet revolution, rise of new technology hubs in Asia, offshore development, and clean tech revolution starting now). This event brings together three consummate technology executives with a professional audience to explore the future of technology in Oregon and beyond.

Ananthan Thandri – Vice President & CIO, Mentor Graphics - http://www.mentor.com/ on global outsourcing strategies: outlook and yer for Desktop Graphical User Interfaces
This will be the world premiere of a game-changing advancement in the
development of desktop graphical user interfaces (GUIs). FreeTUIT
removes the verbosity, tedium, and confusion from GUI development and
provides a unified syntax for widget layout and configuration which
supports good software design practice without getting in the way of
rapid application development.
FreeTUIT is a syntax and runtime for concisely declaring the layout and
configuration of GUI widgets (such as forms, toolbars, buttons, and
dialogs). The freetuit interpreter drives a unified object layer which
is accessible from event callbacks. This takes you from a blank page
to a static demo of the layout with zero setup and allows desktop
applications to be developed and deployed faster than web applications
by simply removing the HTML, CSS, XML, HTTP, Javascript, Database,
Network, and User Agent components.2008-12-18 03:00:00http://pdxlinux.org2008-12-17 19:05:26 :2008-12-18 05:00:00 from 5pm until at least 7pm at Block 15 in Corvallis, OR. Bloggers/Twitter folks from the local scene show up and we help each other with our blogs. Sometimes we’ll arrange for a special guest to be there to help us on topics that are beyond the group’s skillset. Beer and Blog is like a networking event based around a group work session. Not only does it bring together talented folks that each bring a unique offering to the group, but it’s also a set social event that prompts us to do the updates we say we’re going to do.
This is the second Beer and Blog for Corvallis so it'll probably be another free form social gathering, but feel free to blog while you're there! They have free wifi and we'll make sure to bring enough power strips. We'll be upstairs near the back (west end). See you there!

Technology and IP Networking Event
Date: Dec 16, 2008
Open Source: Turning a Traditional Pitfall into Opportunity
Great business advantage awaits companies who can use open source code to make a better proprietary product cheaper or faster. However, traditional thinking divides companies into two camps: open source companies, which embrace the open source business model and have no proprietary products, and proprietary software companies, which may want to use open source software either in the development process or as part of the product, but which often dare not risk doing so because of the legal risks.

How It Works
It’s simple. When you arrive, you’ll get a sticker to wear. Venture forth, find another sticker-wearer and offer them a drink. That’s the trick: you can’t just drink your own, that just wouldn’t be social. It’s a great way to break the ice.
Come join us downstairs at the Life of Riley tavern. There's no charge to come spend a few hours with your fellow creatives, but in the spirit of the season, we'd encourage you to bring along a canned good donation and wear your best, bad, holiday sweater.2008-12-10 23:00:00http://www.portland.aiga.org/events/2008/12/247745692008-12-10 22:50:31 ; 2008-12-11 00:00:009-10-08 02:00:00http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4424087/2009-09-24 00:47:172009-09-28 19:48:06 @|;b2009-10-08 02:00:00
Each artist has 10 minutes to draw 8 frames of animation. They leave their last frame as a starting place for the person who comes after them, who draws 8 more frames and leaves their last one... repeat all evening.
Anyone can participate- artists, animators, people who want to experiment. And people are welcome to attend just to drink and watch the action.
The Someday Lounge is 21+ and non-smoking, with food and drinks available for purchase. This event is free to Cascade SIGGRAPH and Northwest ASIFA members- non-members pay $5 at the door.

3. Based on the responses, we sent out a call for a community gathering to explore grassroots, relationship-based action to support each other.
4. We created a process intended to address the expressed need for building connection with others at a personal level, learning more about what others are doing, and sharing skills for trust-building and facilitation.
5. For a variety of reasons, far more people came than anticipated: over 100, and we had to turn some away for lack of space. This meant the space was cramped, but also that energy was very high. Clearly, lots of people are ready to act in this way. Our process seemed to work for some people and in some ways, but not others.
Now, our goal is for people to have the skills and confidence to help their networks become circles of trust-based sharing and support, and to link those together in a growing ecology throughout Portland.

As of today, we have to figure out our own ways to measure our energy and carbon footprints. Some parts are fairly easy--for example, our utility bills can tell us a lot about our energy use. But what about food? What's the embodied energy and carbon emissions of our diet? Did yo {

Los Angeles followed suit and Seattle's City Council voted to implement a 20-cent fee for plastic and paper bags at grocery, drug and convenience stores.
Portland City Commissioner Sam Adams recently announced his plans to bring a resolution forward before the end of 2008 that will impose a fee on both paper and plastic check-out bags.

ABSTRACT:
Since the beginning of modern computer science some sixty years ago, we are building computers in more or less the same way. Silicon electronics serves as a physical substrate, the von Neumann architecture provides a computer design model, while the abstract Turing machine concept supports the theoretical foundations. That is changing: in recent years, unimagined computing substrates have seen the light because of advances in synthetic biology, nanotechnology, material science, and neurobiology. A grand challenge consists in developing computer architectures, computing paradigms, design methodo working with open source. We're having a second town hall discussion and planning meeting on November 6th at OTBC's new location in The Round (next to the Beaverton Transit Center). We'll talk about overall goals for the conference, then break into small working groups to start tackling the event planning needs. If you can, bring an audio or video recorder to help document the discussion.
Whether or not you'll be attending, you can join our mailing lists to receive announcements and join in the planning discussion:

We are excited to announce a new workshop series devoted to Pure Data (Pd). http://puredata.info.
"Pd (aka Pure Data) is a real-time graphical programming environment for audio, video, and graphical processing. It is the third major branch of the family of patcher programming languages known as Max (Max/FTS, ISPW Max, Max/MSP, jMax, etc.) originally developed by Miller Puckette and company at IRCAM."
Pure Data is free [FLOSS] software - meaning there is no charge for the download and it is open source, (free/libre). It runs wonderfully on Mac, Linux, Windows - so bring any laptop. Come with Pd-extended installed if possible - otherwise come a little early for installation assistance. The workshop is free as well!
We will will be doing several workshops starting from the ground up - and ranging topics as advanced as there is interest for.
Workshop One will be held May 17th. No prior Pd or programming knowledge is required, but expect to leave with functional knowledge of how to use Pd. The outline in progress can be found here:
http://dorkbotpdx.org/wiki/pd _workshop_2009_outline.
But we want to hear from you! We'd love to get a rough idea of how many people are interested in attending.
Do you use Pd? Do you use similar commercial software like Max/MSP? Are you interested in learning Pd? Why? What are some of your ideas?
Pd is an incredibly open-ended platform so we're trying to get an idea of where the majority's (if there is a majority) interests lie.... Physical Interfaces for music? Live DSP? Generative composition? Video? Dance? Robotic cat toys? Feedforward most welcome!
Bring a laptop with Pd-extended installed, if possible. Otherwise come a little early for installation help! http://puredata.info.
Seating is limited to about 35, so please rsvp at http://dorkbotpdx.org/pd_rsvp or email jason@noisybox_net or coldham@mac_com.

ABSTRACT:
This will be a talk about Darcs and type safe manipulations of changes:
Darcs is based on a data model, known as Patch Theory, that sets it apart from other version control systems. The power of this data model is that it allows Darcs to manage significant complexity with a relatively straightforward user interface.
We show that Generalized Algebraic Data Types (GADTs) can be used to express several fundamental invariants and properties derive_ԡ 93c33 3 How to use Linkedin and Biznik to promote your business and automate your time on themHow to use Linkedin and Biznik to promote your business

ABSTRACT:
This will be an informal talk and discussion on two topics:
1. A language for build systems
Build systems are easy to start but hard to get right. We'll take the view of a language designer and look at where our current tools fall down in terms of safety/correctness and expressiveness.
We'll then consider some very early ideas about what a build system language should look like and what properties it should have. Currently this takes the form of a design for a build DSL embedded in Haskell.`ԡ 13]33 3 Portland Art SparkApril 16th: MetroArts, Inc. @ the Armory Café at Portland Center Stage.

Almost every one of these businesses will transfer ownership at some point in time, the vast majority through an outright sale of the company. But those responsible for handling transactions involving companies with intangible value are often faced with a number of hard questions: How will the buyer perceive value? In which sectors can the best buyers be found? Can the right investment banker add value to the transaction?
Myths regarding the sale of an intangible company are subtle. What we mean by myths in this context are the so-called truths that most people believe about the sale process. We'll examine why these myths are not true and illustrate how they can have a negative effect on the sale process.2009-04-23 18:30:00http://www.meetup.com/otbc-events/calendar/9828761/2009-04-13 02:00:302009-04-13 02:01:45 <2009-04-23 20:00:0000:00

And agile methods lead us toward shipping software with zero defects, we hope. But bugs remain, for now, and we think of and treat them quite differently from stories, tasks, and other work items—perhaps to our, and our project’s, detriment.

When shifting to Agile methods, effective leaders ally current skills with strategic tools that keep people and teams on course during the transition. Researchers Klein & Posey (1986) assert, "...managers who have been the most successful in traditional systems should have no trouble adapting to their roles in innovative [Agile] systems." McKinsey (2008) states, "Employees can't change if their leaders don't. [Agile] leaders act as role models for the mindsets and behaviors they wish to instill in their teams."

The dialogue will be carried through many devices and it will take place everywhere. Ultimately this puts us as content creators in the driver's seat and with the great power of reaching audiences everywhere, and the pressure to create good, compelling content has never been greater. This presentation will explore some of the many areas of interest and concern surrounding the future of interactivity, it's promises and pitfalls.

ABSTRACT:
Since the beginning of modern computer science some sixty years ago, we are building computers in more or less the same way. Silicon electronics serves as a physical substrate, the von Neumann architecture provides a computer design model, while the abstract Turing machine concept supports the theoretical foundations. That is changing: in recent years, unimagined computing substrates have seen the light because of advances in synthetic biology, nanotechnology, material science, and neurobiology. A grand challenge consists in developing computer architectures, computing paradigms, design methodo H

4. Choose a set of design elements to employ (or intentionally omit) that lend themselves to the learning objectives. (The presence or absence of Collaboration in a game can lend itself to lessons around teamwork, for example.)
5. Draft the rules by which players will play the game.
6. Play the game, discuss, and iterate. Keep iterating, tweaking the rules, until the game feels solid and fun, with lots of opportunities for insight.
We will introduce and explain key game design elements including: Strategy, Chance, Choice, Collaboration, Competition, Interference, Balance, Secrecy, Roles, and Turns. And we will demonstrate how to use these game design elements by suggesting ways they could be used to design games around learning objectives suggested by participants.2009-05-01 16:00:00http://www.regonline.com/AgileGames05012009-04-07 18:51:172009-04-07 18:51:17 ;2009-05-02 00:00:00 3dress your specific teaching points. In this session, we will introduce some essential elements of game design and demonstrate a process for designing a game starting with a learning objective. Participants will then use materials we supply to create their own Agile games.
Learning games are exponentially effective because they engage across all four of the key learning styles:
* Kinetic/Tactile
* Spatial/Visual
* Auditory
* Logical
Because they operate at so many different levels, learning games are highly effective at conveying complex concepts like those involved in agile development methodologies.
Class Outline
We will introduce a simple process for creating games and simulations:
1. Choose a learning objective or concept to explore.
2. Identify important logistical requirements and constraints such as the number of players, the time frame, and the expected skill level of the players.

It is a time when family and friends gather together for a ritual meal. The Haggadah, the text used in the seder (structured meal) explicitly encourages the invitation of "strangers." And many Jews (Dav P id and myself included) take Passover as an opportunity to bring Jews and non-Jews together for discussion and food (food is very important).
We would like to invite members (in the broadest sense) of the CubeSpace community to the second CubeSpace Passover Seder. There are no minimum knowledge requirements to attend. Questions are encouraged and families are welcome.
The seder will be on Thursday, April 9th, beginning at 5pm. Adults are $10/person, children under 12 are $5/person and children under 2 are free.
Food will be kosher for Passover by ingredient, but we will not have special Passover plates. The seder will be vegetarian-friendly, and we will do our best to accommodate special diets for those that pre-register.

The new economic stimulus bill is an example of the priority and urgency the new Congress and Obama Administration gives to reforming the health care system. As part of the stimulus package, signed into law by President Obama, $19 billion is now dedicated to transforming the patient record to an electronic format and adopting standards, to be developed by Jan 1, 2010.
Practitioners will receive incentives to use
Heath Information Technology (HIT) standards that must be developed by Jan. 1, 2010.
Physicians and other practitioners will be eligible for up to $64,000 in incentive payments over several years for the meaningful use of an electronic medical record for patients. By 2015 all physicians will be required to use electronic records in their practice.
Hospitals will also be eligible for $1-9 million in incentives for meaningful EHR adoption.

This involves studying the well known Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) benchmark called TPC-C ( www.tpc.org ). TPC-C was develo T ped by a committee, representing all major players in the database marketplace, to be representative of typical online enterprise databases. TPC-C consists of a precisely defined schema and 19 queries. We will review the schema and queries and demonstrate how each tuning technique affects their performance. We will use an open source package that the speaker has developed, called DBT-2, which many DBAs have found useful.
Mark Wong has an MS in Computer Science from OGI and several years of experience developing and executing various database systems benchmarks. Most relevant to this series are his years spent at the OSDL developing and using a fair-use derivative of the TPC-C benchmark to characterize system performance of open source software.

For a description of our goals, see this post on What is Linux Plumbing?. Thus the conference program mostly consists of microconferences addressing a particular topic or subsystem issue. Microconferences are sessions of approximately two and a half hours with several individuals giving brief presentations or demos and driving discussion. Microconferences will be run by a “runner” who selects speakers and moderates the discussion. Note that the microconference format does not preclude individual speakers giving more traditional, longer formal presentations on topics of interest.2009-09-23 15:00:00http://linuxplumbersconf.org/2009/2009-03-27 14:23:212009-03-27 14:23:21 <(2009-09-26 00:00:00 best technical talent but the decision makers and industry experts who are involved in the Linux community.

An Evening of Sustainability for Graphic Designers and Industrial Designers
About the Event
Compostmodern PDX will feature video highlights from the San Francisco Compostmodern event and Brian Dougherty, author of Green Graphic Design (greengraphicdesign.net)
Dougherty, a founding partner at Celery Design Collaborative in Berkeley, Calif., and a leader in the field of ecological communications design, will discuss the ability of designers to send a socially and ecologically responsible message to both consumers and corporations. Signed copies of Green Graphic Design will be available for purchase by cash or check.
The original Compostmodern conference was presented by AIGA San Francisco and the AIGA Center for Sustainable Design. That event brought together designers, manufacturers and business leaders to produce sustainable solutions for the graphic design and industrial design communities.
Attendees will receive access to footage from the complete San Francisco Compostmodern conference. This seven hour video series will be available on-line.
Compostmodern PDX was developed as part of AIGA Portland’s growing focus on sustainability. The event is sponsored by Mohawk Papers.

R is widely used for statistical software development and data analysis. R is part of the GNU project, and its source code is freely available under the GNU General Public License, and pre-compiled binary versions are provided for various operating systems. R uses a command line interface, though several graphical user interfaces are available.

About R
R was created by Ross Ihaka and Robert Gentleman at the University of Auckland, New Zealand, and is now developed by the R Development Core Team. It is named partly after the first names of the first two R authors (Robert Gentleman and Ross Ihaka), and partly as a play on the name of S. The R language has become a de facto standard among statisticians for the development of statistical software.

The salmonella outbreaks related to spinach & peanuts, the tainted milk from China as well last year’s hike in gasoline prices that had repercussions in the increased food costs -- all fuel a debate about the importance of controlling how and where our food is grown, harvested, processed, stored, and distributed.
Central to this conversation has been the re-emergence of the idea of the food shed.
How do we get the variety in our food and yet stay local? Does local matter and if so why?
Join us for a discussion on this topic on April 21st with David Lively, marketing Director at Organically Grown, largest wholesaler of organic fruits, vegetables and herbs in the Pacific Northwest.

It is about environmental values but it is also about knowledge: rediscovering taste, rediscovering ripeness, rediscovering the connection between the field and the table.
Are these rediscovered values byproducts of a focus on sustainability?
Or is sustainability achievable precisely because these values are in high demand, and require sustainable agriculture and food delivery systems to succeed?
And how can these solutions scale -- is the concept of "distributed scale" an oxymoron or a breakthrough?
Our current food supply chain has become increasingly complex, involving a global network of farmers, packers, shippers, manufacturers & retailers. Your neighborhood grocery store is likely to carry more items from far flung areas of the world than produce that has been grown locally.
Several incidents over the course of last year have brought the increasing complexity and anonymity of our food supply systems to national - an

In the last 6 months the economy, access to capital, the cost of talent and the opportunities for innovation have all changed. We think it’s time for the relationship between entrepreneurs and the State of Oregon to change, too (the state needs jobs & entrepreneurs need capital!).
Hear stories of successful, local homegrown companies that have either bootstrapped or raised funds and then grown themselves to success.
Most importantly, though, the goal of this event is to prove to the State of Oregon that there are enough jobs, compelling ideas and entrepreneurs to warrant an immediate investment of $100,000,000 for start ups that want to hire local talent.
We are working to raise a $100M fund that makes small investments in Oregon-based companies who hire Oregon-based employees. Now, in 2009. Not next year or some point in the future. In growing these new startups, we are investing in innovation, creating jobs and building Oregon’s brand with innovators and entrepreneurs.

University of New Mexico
FAB 86-01
Abstract
A pressing challenge for computer science over the next decade is reducing the total cost of software. This includes the billions of dollars that are lost each year from software defects. The number of software defects far outstrips the resources available for repairing them, and most software is shipped with both known and unknown bugs. This problem arises because human programmers still develop, maintain, and repair computer programs largely by hand, despite many years of progress in machine learning and artificial intelligence. The talk will describe recent research that shows how evolutionary computation can be combined with pro d has served on the Science Board and as Vice President of the Santa Fe Institute. Professor Forrest received M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Computer and Communication Sciences from the University of Michigan (1982,1985) and a BA from St. John's College (1977). Before joining UNM in 1990 she worked for Teknowledge Inc. and was a Director's Fellow at the Center for Nonlinear Studies, Los Alamos National Laboratory.
Her research studies adaptive systems, including evolutionary computation, immunology, biological modeling, and computer security. In security, she is best known for her early work using system calls for anomaly intrusion detection and her more recent work on automated diversity. She was a recipient of the NSF Presidental Young Investigator's Award and has recently served on the NSF GENI Science Council, the NSF CISE Advisory Committee, and the UCLA CENS Advisory Board. 2009-04-06 17:00:00http://web.cecs.pdx.edu/~wuchi/Colloq/Forrest.html2009-03-09 23:02:312009-03-10 08:39:26 <2009-04-06 18:00:00 ini, Kent advises clients on patent development, sales and licensing.

Drawing on his experience as VP IP at Rambus, General Counsel of Numerical Technology, and as part of the IP strategy team at Wilson Sons gram analysis methods to automatically repair bugs in off-the-shelf legacy C programs.
Once a program fault is discovered, evolutionary algorithms are used to generate program variants until one is found that both retains required functionality and avoids the defect in question. Standard test cases are used to represent the fault and to encode program requirements. Once a successful variant is discovered, structural differencing algorithms and delta debugging methods are used to minimize its size. Initial results will be presented on a wide range of C programs, including security vulnerabilities such as integer overflow, denial of service, format string, and buffer overflow. Finally, the talk will describe how the automatic repair mechanism can be combined with anomaly intrusion detection to produce a closed-loop repair system.

Its limitations become everyone's limitations. It's done a very good job adapting the last seven years, and testing has become more sophisticated in that time, but age and backwards compatibility holds things back. There are a number of desired features which Test::Builder cannot support, such as end-of-test actions, without radically altering how tests are built.
thus: Test::Builder2.
This will be "something of a talk" followed by some hacking both on Test::Builder2 directly and writing new test modules. It'll give folks an opportunity to work both with Moose (well, Mouse) and git. Pair programming will make life easier, we can pair of experienced folks with inexperienced. Or just huddle together for strength in numbers. I find it easier to pair when each person has their own keyboard, so I'm going to bring along a few spare keyboards and mice.

Chevy learned that the hard way when it marketed its "Nova" vehicle in Latin America. When we speak of localization, we refer to it as the process of adapting an internationalized product to a particular culture or locale. Before shipping the localized product to a particular market, it is imperative to make sure it is not beset with inconsistent quality. Planning for a full round of localization testing will give you that peace of mind. In this presentation, we will look at some examples of some major translation mistakes (some funny, some not!). We will also take an introductory approach to the best practices with localization testing.

The clarity and quality of the requirements drive the deliverables of the project and set the expectations of customers. Managing requirements can be a challenge because we have been taught to capture all requirements up front, and achieve customer sign off. This process does not allow for change, and all software projects have change.
Enter user stories. Authoring project requirements as user stories is one of the most common approaches across any agile method. In this course, you will learn what a user story is, how to build and author them and how to manage and communicate them to users.
The course format consists of multiple lecture topics, group exercises and group discussion. Ample time will be devoted to analysis of the "real-world" industry experiences of the instructor based on case study examples and experiences managing agile projects and coaching agile project teams.

Attendees will learn how to generate and interpret operating system (Linux) and database statistics, and the effects of some system tuning techniques. This involves studying the well known Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) benchmark called TPC-C ( www.tpc.org ). TPC-C was developed by a committee, representing all major players in the database marketplace, to be representative of typical online enterprise databases. TPC-C consists of a precisely defined schema and 19 queries. We will review the schema and queries and demonstrate how each tuning technique affects their performance. We will use an open source package that the speaker has developed, called DBT-2, which many DBAs have found useful.

In this global economy, the economic meltdown happening in the U.S. is also affecting economies around the world. China, Oregon’s largest export country in 2008, is being negatively affected. We often see bad news coming out of China, such as:
* "China’s Slowdown Sends out Aftershocks”,
* "Jobless Migrants Hit 20 Million as China’s Unemployment Rises”
* "China’s Small Factories Struggle”, etc.
We have assembled a panel of seasoned business people and professionals who have been working and/or traveling in China to give us a closer look at what is really going on over there and share their insights with us. We will also learn about any implications to the Oregon economy due to the current situation in China. Please bring your questions and join us!

About the program:
Portland has a productive and creative open source community, and great business advantage awaits companies who can use open source code to make a better proprietary product cheaper or faster. However, traditional thinking divides companies into two camps: open source companies, which embrace the open source business model and have no proprietary products, and proprietary software companies, which may want to use open source software either in the development process or as part of the product, but which often dare not risk doing so because of the legal risks.
Portland's open source community is vibrant and energetic. Can proprietary companies tap into that creativity while avoiding the legal pitfalls?
A panel of local entrepreneurs will discuss new law on open source license agreements, how local technology companies have successfully (or not so successfully) incorporated open source code into their proprietary product

PJUG meetings start with some time to eat and socialize (pizza and beverages are provided), followed by the featured speaker, then some time for Q&A, discussion, and sometimes a drawing to give away swag. :)
Though we like knowing how many people to expect, you don't *have* to RSVP, on Upcoming or otherwise. Go ahead and just show up!
Many people also go for drinks afterward, at a location decided on the fly (more often than not, Jax on 2nd).

Things start to get murky when choosing a new HD flatscreen television. And when it comes to health care purchasing? To many, it’s a whole new set of rules. During this, the second of a four-part series on health reform elements, we’ll examine what it means to purchase health care. Models for large public sector purchasers, like the Public Employees’ Benefit Board, exist to fac = ilitate the process and provide a clear set of benefits for a group of employees. What lessons can be learned from this model for other purchaser sectors? The Oregon Health Fund Board plan proposes an insurance exchange—what does this mean for local insurers and how will it affect individuals purchasing a health plan? How can communities, collectively, begin to understand how informed purchasing can improve health and encompass more than health insurance?

A major finding uncovered was that the unemployed all shared a common fear of being out of work for a period of time. Some struggled with finding a new job, or they didn�t know how to write their resume because they had been employed in their last job for many years. Some suffered with the difficulty of going through the interview process and were uncomfortable selling themselves in front of a manager. All expressed having low confidence from being out of work, which compounded the ability to find the new job. During this presentation, you will learn how to tell if your position is in jeopardy and will learn practical steps on how to find your next opportunity, how to write a resume and how to get through the interview process with confidence.

ClearAccess provides tools and technology that allows telecommunications companies the ability to offer remote technical support to customers. This technology improves customer support and satisfaction while reducing costs. They are a growth stage start up that has been through the ropes of raising angel and venture funding SeaPort Air is bucking the trend. In a time when airlines are failing, SeaPort Air is earning revenue and raising investment. They have succeeded by serving the unmet needs of the business traveler. With no TSA, on-site parking and a convenient Boeing Field location in Seattle, SeaPort cuts the typical airline or automobile travel time in half, for about the same cost as the big airlines. Come learn how these CEOs are succeeding despite really challenging economic times. 2009-02-20 20:45:00http://www.memberservicecenter.org/irmweb/wc.dll/orporntw?id=orporntw&doc=events/event&kn=692009-02-14 22:56:332009-02-15 00:20:522009-02-21 01:00:00 Q Q´ª¸ÂçAº¯Û.JÇ×H=YÉÌOQÓÁÀ¼ÁÏÌÝkA=:YQKWçYÝǽß;Ïß×]UW<7;67=ÑÌÈ¿¶µÌÌÏWYIGNocßÏÙ×ÓWÎ÷4ÆÃgKMgÂ]9WßïëãÙ÷ßÌ_AÅÙ;»½MNËÛg?<ãëGNk÷ÓËwѾºI¼[w ԡ= /3U33 3 "No Pitch" CoffeeOne of the worst parts about networking are the individuals that use the events to pitch their products and services. We all know that is part of the deal when networking but it can be highly annoying. Because the focus of this site is on peer advice between small business owners, PortlandSmallBusiness.com is starting a series of weekly "No Pitch" coffee networking events around town. These are intended to be very informal meetings. You show up, order your coffee and you talk with other small business owners.

Contact Info: 503-999-5849 Event Type: advocacy, education, bizdev Join us for this free event at the Oregon State Capitol to learn how to position your company for federal & state government contracts. Shipley Associates and the Oregon State Procurement Office will have experts on hand to provide insights and answer questions on what can be a bewilderingly complex process. Research Drives Us We recently took a survey and found that over 63% of software decision-makers thought that obtaining a state or federal contract would enable them to hire the most employees. To our surprise, this was more popular than obtaining venture capital, tax credits or enhanced private lending. We Want to Help Since the current economic crisis can be traced back to a lack of jobs, and since the stimulus packages present new job opportunities, and since we have federal & state ex perts that are willing to help, we decided to be part of the solution instead of whining about the state of the economy. Our Trainers Shipley Associates are well-respected as the best private support for obtaining federal contracts Shipley Associates has: • Worked with 43 of the top 50 Fortune 500 companies • Developed a virtual proposal center for a Fortune 10 client • Trained over 30,000 people worldwide The Oregon State Procurement Office establishes and administers contracts for goods and services on behalf of state agencies, state universities, select non-profit organizations, and local governments. They will give very practical advice for working with the ORPIN (Oregon Procurement Information Network) system, which is Oregon's #1 resource for viewing Public Agency Opportunities.2009-02-13 05:00:002009-02-13 04:29:302009-02-13 04:40:30 >L2009-02-13 06:00:0001 for Business and Technical Professionals

Wh S>When: Saturday, Feb. 28, 1pm to 3pm Where: OTBC Cost: Free At our "Finding Founders" brown bag lunch, there was a lot of interest in a Startup Speed Dating process. So we're doing it! Do you have an idea for a startup and you're looking for founders who can get as excited about your idea as you are? Are you looking for an early stage startup to join - even if the compensation up front is sweat equity instead of salary? Then this event is for you. Send us your Idea If you have an idea for a startup, we encourage you to give use some hint of what it is (even if you need to be vague) so we can post the info and help you generate some interest. Please use the form at this link and we'll read it, maybe provide some feedback, and get your idea posted online. (If you don't want to reveal anything about the idea online, at least consider talking about what skill sets you'd like to add to the team so readers will know whether or not there might be a fit.) See concepts others have already posted at this link. Agenda for Feb. 28 After some networking time, we'll have each idea person looking for a team give 2 or 3 minute elevator pitch, have each of them head to their own corner of the room, and let people circulate around to check out the startups that sound interesting to them. If we get a lot of ideas, we might have to split this up over more than one event and feature a specific list of startups at each one - we'll see how it goes. So mark your calendar, RSVP, and start honing your idea. We hope to see you on Feb. 28! 2009-02-28 21:00:00http://www.meetup.com/otbc-events/calendar/9689811/2009-02-14 12:07:342009-02-24 17:11:45 <2009-03-01 00:00:0008-07-04 17:04:512008-10-12 00:38:52 : ;b)2008-10-24 00:00:00 1 # 1end:

For our customers, a better user experience during the registration and login process makes for more registrations and better membership retention rates. We also offer reporting capabilities to sites implementing VidoopConnect so that they can see who their users are, how they're logging in, and can react to their customers' needs better. It's easy to implement and unlike our competitors, we offer a solution based on open rather than proprietary standards.

I will also be presenting as an example a small (as in tiny) project that I will be doing using breakout boards to make prototyping possible. The workshop as always will be $25 and participants will walk away with a breadboard and all components necessary to build a bare bones "Sanguino" during the workshop. It will also include other items including a a protoboard and socket to move the design to something more permanent.

Guest speakers include Jane Green and Melissa Owens of Children’s Cancer Association, Amy Sacks of the Pixie Project, and Charles Lewis of Ethos Music. The forum is your chance to talk with others in the community who share your concern. And if you have an idea ready to turn into action, you’ll find experts ready to help you get started. That’s all in keeping with the goal of the Springboard Social Innovation Forum: unleashing the potential of “ordinary” citizens to address local challenges with lasting solutions.

This month, the forum turns its focus to “caring.” Speakers, including Charles Lewis of Ethos Music and Amy Sacks of the Pixie Project, represent successful social entrepreneurs and people in the community who are leading community change; Workshops will review innovative trends in elevating the value of caring and how to apply these trends to your work and passion. Unfortunately, caring is something society doesn’t value much. We value numbers, and data. And we almost think caring is a weird thing to say. What does it even mean? This forum will bring caring to the forefront, and talk about how it's a wonderful thing to care, and to say you do. Do we talk about that on our websites? Do we ask others if they care? Do we acknowledge when they do? How do we help people care? When we care, do we act?

CHIFOO is the Computer-Human Interaction Forum of Oregon. We are the local chapter of the ACM, the Association of Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group devoted to computer usability. We usually meet the first Wed. of the month at Cubespace, but always check the schedule at chifoo.org..
This talk will explore how digital habitats vary across different contexts such as a company intranet, a mostly face-to-face community like CHIFOO, and a mostly online community like Planet Ubuntu.
We’ll discuss some case studies of communities and the evolution of their digital habitats, exploring fundamental design tensions, kinds of tool integration, and the nature of technology stewardship.

By rallying together globally, under short timescales, for a single aim on the same day, the Twestival hopes to bring awareness to this global crisis. charity: water is a non profit organization bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing nations by funding sustainable clean water solutions in areas of greatest need.
Right now 1.1 billion people on the planet don’t have access to safe, clean drinking water. That’s one in six of us. Unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80% of all sickness and disease, and kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war. Many communities in developing nations often have a plentiful supply of clean drinking water just below the ground, but no way to get to it.

By the time I put my first module on the CPAN, over half of the current contributors had already shipped. I have often read the source of a core module and asked "Why?" only to dis cover some unknown feature or historical accident. The history lesson continues all the way into the roots of Unix in some cases, but also often leaves me thinking "So?". And now I am quickly approaching my 40th CPAN distribution. In this talk, I will share my own experiences in developing with Perl and explore the idea of the "Modern" or "Enlightened" Perl. Did I miss the heyday of Perl or are we still making that now? How does today's Perl code look different than it did 5 or 10 years ago? Is there a Perl renaissance coming, and what does it have to do with Perl 6? What modules should you be using for new development? Where is my flying car? Why am I still programming in Perl? And why am I programming at all? I will try to find answers to some of these questions and invite you to bring questions (or answers!) of your own. As always, the meeting will be followed by social hour at the LuckyLab. 2009-02-12 02:53:00http://pdx.pm.org/2009-02-05 01:14:162009-02-05 01:14:16 92009-02-12 05:00:00 rmative webinar on the new Software Association of Oregon Healthcare insurance plans that are available for new enrollment effective March 1, 2009.

In this talk, I will outline my visionary and long-term research efforts to address the grand challenge of building, organizing, and programming future computing machines. First, I will review some exemplary future and emerging computing devices and highlight the particular challenges that arise for performing computations with them. I will then delineate potential solutions on how these challenges might be addressed. Self-assembled nano-scale electronics, cellular automata (CAs), and random boolean networks (RBNs) will serve as a simple showcase. I will show that irregular assemblies and specific interconnects can have major advantages over purely regular and locally interconnected fabrics. I will further present the efforts underway to self-assemble massive-scale nanowire-based interconnect fabrics for spatial computers.

In this talk, I will outline my visionary and long-term research efforts to address the grand challenge of building, organizing, and programming future computing machines. First, I will review some exemplary future and emerging computing devices and highlight the particular challenges that arise for performing computations with them. I will then delineate potential solutions on how these challenges might be addressed. Self-assembled nano-scale electronics, cellular automata (CAs), and random boolean networks (RBNs) will serve as a simple showcase. I will show that irregular assemblies and specific interconnects can have major advantages over purely regular and locally interconnected fabrics. I will further present the efforts underway to self-assemble massive-scale nanowire-based interconnect fabrics for spatial computers.

Silicon electronics serves as a physical substrate, the von Neumann architecture provides a computer design model, while the abstract Turing machine concept supports the theoretical foundations. That is changing: in recent years, unimagined computing substrates have seen the light because of advances in synthetic biology, nanotechnology, material science, and neurobiology. A grand challenge consists in developing computer architectures, computing paradigms, design methodo and other earned media; internet advertising; dynamics of the iTunes store (ratings vs. units sold, targetting categories); and creating the even more popular (and free) Peekaboo Barn Lite. For those interested, they can also field questions about the process of becoming iPhone developers, contracting and working with an outside illustrator, identifying and using Creative Commons media, and user-testing with children and families. About Night & Day Studios Night & Day Studios is a team of 11 designers and entrepreneurs located in the firehouse on 7th Ave. Team members have various backgrounds in interactive design, writing, media production, educational theory, and marketing.

One local company that has taken the leap is Night & Day Studios. Night & Day Studios is a media production and software development house in SE Portland. They got their start developing kiosks and other exhibit media for museums. Since the summer of 2008, they have been developing iPhone apps for adults, children, and families. Night & Day Studios plans to transition completely to mobile development by 2010. They currently have five apps in the iTunes store, ranging from the trivia game Big Fat Lies to the #10 kids game, Peekaboo Barn. Night & Day team members will share their experience developing and marketing iPhone apps, focusing in particular on Peekaboo Barn. They will detail the process of app submission and approval; setting prices; getting attention from iPhone app reviewers, VIPs, rious events and on Twitter, a bunch of folks suggested we get together for a photowalk. We'll meet Just north of the Hawthorne Bridge on the Eastbank Esplanade (just south of the fire station). There's ample street parking in the area and it's accessible from several bus lines (4, 6, 10, 14, 33) from the stop on the east side of the bridge. The plan will depend on the wishes of the group, but I was thinking we'd start with the inner eastside, then walk across the river and shoot a bit downtown.

Despite tough economic times, one small Oregon company is about to open its first European office. Another has increased its sales 75% with the help of a contract in Saudi Arabia. Still another company has just returned from a trade show in Germany with several new distributors signed. The benefits from increasing international presence include growth opportunities, market diversification, and increased competitiveness. Despite the benefits, we still encounter resistance to overseas marketing. A sale abroad will cost more, take more time and involve more risk than a domestic transaction. Fortunately, a host of resources are available to help businesses overcome these challenges.

If change is difficult, the scope of large scale transformation seems impossible. What role does the consultant play to increase the odds that an organization's attempt at change is successful? Frank Wagner's presentation will cover three major areas of emphasis where a consultant can add immense value to the organization and increase the likelihood that an intended change takes place effectively. These areas are: -- Helping the organization add the missing piece in the strategy/future picture; -- Building in the proper amount of structure and support = I I2} A 6j M Ss331 1 Adobe Conference Center Seattle Adobe's Conference Center in Fremount neighborhood Seattle Wa 701 N. 34th Street Seattle Wa 98103http://wԡx O3=33 3 DASH (Different Area—Same Hunt)DASH (Different Area—Same Hunt) is a puzzle hunt event (a fun, interactive event in which teams of players race to find and solve creative puzzles hidden in different locations) which takes place on the same day in multiple cities across the United States.

In this talk, I will outline my visionary and long-term research efforts to address the grand challenge of building, organizing, and programming future computing machines. First, I will review some exemplary future and emerging computing devices and highlight the particular challenges that arise for performing computations with them. I will then delineate potential solutions on how these challenges might be addressed. Self-assembled nano-scale electronics, cellular automata (CAs), and random boolean networks (RBNs) will serve as a simple showcase. I will show that irregular assemblies and specific interconnects can have major advantages over purely regular and locally interconnected fabrics. I will further present the efforts underway to self-assemble massive-scale nanowire-based interconnect fabrics for spatial computers.

One area where this trend has manifested is the broader use of microsites - campaign-specific webpages that we've all seen, maybe even built. Where microsites often fail, however, is in a lack of macro-thinking - they serve a limited function and leave no opportunities to build a larger relationship. This presentation will impart key insights on how applying strategic big-picture thinking in the use of microsites can improve the quality of your sales conversations.

FreeTUIT removes the verbosity, tedium, and confusion from GUI development and provides a unified syntax for widget layout and configuration which supports good software design practice without getting in the way of rapid application development. FreeTUIT is a syntax and runtime for concisely declaring the layout and configuration of GUI widgets (such as forms, toolbars, buttons, and dialogs). The freetuit interpreter drives a unified object layer which is accessible from event callbacks. This takes you from a blank page to a static demo of the layout with zero setup and allows desktop applications to be developed and deployed faster than web applications by simply removing the HTML, CSS, XML, HTTP, Javascript, Database, Network, and User Agent components.2009-01-22 03:00:00http://pdxlinux.org2009-01-15 18:15:002009-01-15 19:45:55 :2009-01-22 05:00:00 = = review some of the exciting things we’re cooking up in our labs and will give a glimpse into what’s coming soon.

These systems were used for computer graphics, design, and general numeric problem solving, but most of these solvers were domain specific and thus of limited usefulness.
Bertrand is an equational programming system whose purpose is to build constraint satisfaction systems using simple equational rules. Bertrand has an purely declarative semantics and an absurdly simple syntax, yet it is a powerful and expressive language, capable of solving problems in a large number of domains including graphics, word problems, electrical circuits, or -- with the right rules -- virtually any mostly-linear domain.
Since this is the Functional Programming Study Group, this talk will cover the underlying equational programming language of Bertrand and ways in which it could be extended to make it more powerful.

Attendees will learn how to generate and interpret operating system (Linux) and database statistics, and the effects of some system tuning techniques. This involves studying the well known Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) benchmark called TPC-C ( www.tpc.org ). TPC-C was developed by a committee, represent rgy for detached single-family homes, multi-family residential and small commercial buildings. Adapting these successful international examples for implementation in Oregon gives us a scalable, replicable model whose economic and environmental impact will be tremendous.
Planned system components include thermal solar collectors, mass thermal storage for heating and anticipated cooling, combining water to water and ground-coupled heat pump technology, waste heat recovery, PV arrays and biofuel boilers for boosting and back-up. A distribution system of hydronic insulated pipes will deliver hot and chilled water for space heating, cooling and domestic hot water to the school, several hundred nearby residences, and commercial buildings. SunNE will operate as a member-owned, unregulated franchise utility within the City of Portland. 2009-01-15 02:00:00http://www.oregon.tie.org/TGS/EM/viewevent/viewEventPT?id_event=2837&from_where=chapter_homepage2009-01-13 17:36:272009-01-13 17:36:27 >c2009-01-15 04:00:00

The agenda for the evening includes a presentation by Ms. Lacey Riddle, Focus Oregon Organizer for Focus The Nation who will present a project based on proven solar thermal techniques- The SunnySide Neighbourhood Project Overview.
Sunnyside Neighborhood Project Overview
Sunnyside Neighborhood Energy (SunNE) is conceived as a comprehensive solution to local thermal energy needs. SunNE is a project of Northwest Neighborhood Energy (N2E), a new non-profit incorporated in Oregon. SunNE will eventually be structured as a community-owned district energy (DE) utility powered by renewable sources that will serve Sunnyside Environmental School and the surrounding historic neighborhood and commercial areas. The project is modeled on existing mid-sized DE utilities in Sweden, Denmark and Canada, which use solar thermal storage and biofuel boilers to provide thermal ene Richard Taylor sees a pattern. The University of Oregon professor of physics is leading the way with internationally recognized research into fractals—curious patterns found in nature that repeat themselves. Taylor's startling discoveries show that these patterns-within-patterns may significantly reduce stress and have interesting implications for psychology, medicine, and even the semiconductor industry. Taylor has applied his studies to art, showing how fractal patterns in the work of abstract expressionist Jackson Pollock can distinguish a real Pollock from a fake. Come hear about this amazing intersection of art and science.
Richard Taylor, PhD, is an associate professor in physics, psychology, and art at the University of Oregon. Transforming lives by erasing academic boundaries might be why Taylor was named Outstanding Teacher in Higher Education for 2005 by the Oregon Academy of Science.2009-01-28 03:00:00http://omsi.edu/sciencepub2009-01-13 16:23:592009-01-25 16:59:31 <2009-01-28 05:00:00 nt

Abstract: Interactive theorem has grown beyond toy examples in mathematics and program verification, as demonstrated by recent successes such as the Gonthier's formal proof of the four colour theorem and Leroy's verified compiler from a realistic subset of C into PowerPC assembly code. As the construction of large programs led to the development of software engineering techniques, there is now a need for theory engineering techniques to support these major verification efforts. In this talk I will present the OpenTheory project, which has defined a simple 'article' format to represent theories of higher order logic. Theories in article format can be written by one higher order logic theorem prover, compressed by a standalone tool, stored and read by a different theorem prover. Articles naturally support theory interpretations, which leads to more efficient developments of standard th imilar to focus groups in a few ways, Innovation Games (and other design games) stimulate the customers to tell you things that are important for them that you would have never thought to ask.

Biography Theodore Johnson received a B.S. in Mathematics from Johns Hopkins University in 1986, and a Ph.D. in Computer Science in 1990. From 1990 through 1996, Theodore was an assistant, then associate procesor in the Computer and Information Science department of the University of Florida. In 1996, Theodore joined the Database Reseach department of AT&T Labs - Research, where today he is a Lead Member of Technical Staff.

He got started in production shooting 8mm film shorts as a child, and after a great many twists and turns was surprised one day to find himself starting a fledgling video production company: Image Works. Yes, those jerks at Sony stole the name, but he holds no grudges. Five years later he was hired by his biggest customer, Intel, and he has been trying to get out of meetings ever since.

In the modern context, much of the political unraveling that we are witnessing can be understood in terms of the limitations of growth of modern industrialism.
The growth of fundamentalism and militarism, the decline of civil liberty and the environment, all of these problems are going to get worse if we do not find a new means to address them.
There are real solutions to these problems, but they are going to involve a quantum leap, both in thought and in action, beyond our current methods of political engagement. The solutions themselves are not even terribly difficult, they are simply well outside of our current range of vision and will.

Our lack of social awareness does not result from the difficulty of understanding social problems, it results from the active repression of such awareness.
The political resistance movements that developed in the twentieth century were adapted to conditions of economic growth. When an economy is growing, petitioning through political and legal means to assure increasing access to rights and wealth for traditionally disenfranchised groups met with a measure of success, and that success was the foundation for further movement building. Those movements cannot, as they are currently structured, guide us through the coming age.
Many of the problems that we see as having purely political roots are strongly influenced by economic and ecological factors.

Humans as individuals are capable of intelligent planning, but America blunders along as if there were no tomorrow. Why is our culture so blind to its own future? Many large societies seem to share the same lack of vision. Why is this, and what can be done about it?
What if the solutions to our environmental crises were apparent? Are the solutions difficult, or simply outside of our current range of vision? Real solutions mean moving beyond corporate greenwashing and politics. We need to create a citizen's movement that can fundamentally restructure our economy and our culture.

In the Maritime Northwest, it is possible to grow all our own produce year-round with limited time to establish a system and limited effort. As petroleum becomes more expensive, this sort of system can provide an example to support our evolution to a more sustainable society. Marisha Auerbach specializes in how to convert properties from grass to to a perennial forage system. A perennial forage system functions much like a natural ecological system, and yields year round produce with minimal work. These systems are developed to meet the needs of the inhabitants on site.

Many have heard of the concept of 'peak oil', but do not fully understand the reality. Peak oil, conceptually, simply means that the oil that is left in the ground is more difficult and more expensive to obtain. This presentation will discuss the economic and social implications of peak oil as well as the need and rise in green collar jobs. Green-collar work may be one of the greatest opportunities as our society and economy change from one being oil-based, to focusing on alternative forms of energy. John Kaufman, is a senior policy analyst with the Oregon Department of Energy and has led energy efficiency and renewable energy efforts with the department for 25 years, helping to make Oregon a national leader.

The group has been dormant for a while but is currently in the early stages of revitalization.
Anyone from an individual enthusiast working on flash games in their spare time up to EA-sized studios are welcome to participate.
We have several goals:
* To meet like-minded developers in the area. We want to be a forum where we can meet other developers and enthusiasts.
* To be a social/networking forum more than having structured meeting topics. We want to be a place you can meet like minded developers and discuss your work. There’s a strong focus on indies, which should be unsurprising for Portland.
* To serve as the area IGDA chapter. There is not a huge game developer presence in Portland, overshadowed as we are by nearby Seattle, but we feel there are more than enough people in the area who would like to meet up and keep in contact.
* To consume vast quantities of pizza and/or beer.2009-04-17 02:00:00http://www.pagdig.org/2009-04-16 23:27:502009-04-16 23:27:50 :2009-04-17 04:00:00 ussion of Apple's Cocoa Framework for programming on Mac OS X.

Pay-per-click advertising (PPC) continues capture more than 88% of all search engine marketing revenues. Even with increasing competition for keywords and risi the synergy of the two address humanity's next evolutionary step?" Four categories of work will address these questions and collectively speak to the power of human ingenuity. We invite artistic and technological creators to submit their work that addresses human survival in an era of interspecies evolution, revolution, and devolution.
Art and technology are two words that for many represent vastly different worlds, and for generations have largely existed along parallel, yet non-convergent lines. But now the potential for unprecedented collaboration is here. Ever-evolving technologies allow us to share ideas across borders, both geographic and symbolic. Such potential for shared ideas has helped break down long standing silos that for generations inhibited expansive thought and human progression.
The lines are now blurred. Creators of all sorts now have public space to mutually ponder where we've been, where we are, and where we're going. By sharing once segregated perspectives, we can see the worl ng cost-per-visits, PPC campaigns are the dominant force within our vibrant space. The reasons for this fact are pretty straight forward:
1. Your ads can be posted, or revised, almost immediately,
2. You ads appear when and where you want them to,
3. They are easy to implement, and can get instant results,
4. They can precisely target your most desired audience,
5. They are the most measurable form of advertising today,
6. Your measured ROI makes them highly affordable.
However, issues of ad quality, landing page design, Web site functionality, product demand, and inventory can hinder your PPC efforts.
We, therefore, invite you to join us for an evening of expert panel advice on proper PPC account set-up, effective landing pages, keyword research, quality score, bid management and much more at our SEMpdx January 2009 PPC Hot Seat. In addition to this insightful information, our panel of search marketing specials will review and critique actual PPC campaigns from real-world companies right here in the Pacific Northwest.
Mark you calendar for Tuesday, January 13, 2009, at Hotel DeLuxe for an eventful evening of social networking, PPC education, and buffet dinner.
What You Will Receive:
1. Real-world advice from a panel of search engine marketing experts.
2. Detailed examples of how to improve your Paid Search performance.
3. Tips on advanced account management, landing page creation, and conversion strategies.

Talk about strange bedfellows: what happens when you mix one part Lisp (one of the oldest computer languages), one part Java (so young, yet so well adopted), a healthy serving of functional programming, and a state-of-the-art concurrency layer on top?

We'll be celebrating their releases this Tuesday with a D.I.Y. What's New party!
The format is simple: pick a change or two from the What's New in Python documentation from 2.6 or 3.0 and tell us about it! You can use the projector if you want, but < 5 minutes. That's easy because most changes are small.
Here's an example from 3.0:
"Removed <> (use != instead)."
So easy! Find some and bring 'em to us. If you get inspired and want to share one of the few larger changes (< 10 min), check the wiki and put your name down.

PJUG meetings start with eat+meet+greet time (pizza and beverages are provided), followed by the featured speaker, then some time for Q&A, discussion, and sometimes a drawing to give away swag. :)
It is not necessary to RSVP, on Upcoming or otherwise; go ahead and just show up!
Many people also go for drinks afterward, at a location decided on the fly (more often than not, Jax on 2nd).

Many supply-chain strategies are now obsolete as the landed cost of goods has risen sharply. The time is now to understand the trends, evaluate the impact on your business and develop an awareness of practices to avoid a setback in your business. Our panelists will discuss the trends we are seeing today and discuss strategies for addressing a changing business environment as it relates to energy.2008-10-15 14:30:00http://www.aeanet.org/events/EventsCatalog.cfm?Product_Major=OR1008022008-10-13 14:35:15 :2008-10-15 16:00:00 he database marketplace, to be representative of typical online enterprise databases. TPC-C consists of a precisely defined schema and 19 queries. We will review the schema and queries and demonstrate how each tuning technique affects their performance. We will use an open source package that the speaker has developed, called DBT-2, which many DBAs have found useful. Mark Wong has an MS in Computer Science from OGI and several years of experience developing and executing various database systems benchmarks. Most relevant to this series are his years spent at the OSDL developing and using a fair-use derivative of the TPC-C benchmark to characterize system performance of open source software.

RCC is 100% free to attendees, and is open to everyone: from hardcore wikiholics to the mildly curious. No pre-registration is required, but it would be helpful if you could add yourself to our list of attendees on our planning wiki.
RCC is held over the course of three days, with participants welcome to come and go as they please. Exact times have not yet been nailed down, but it generally starts Friday morning, continues all day on Saturday, and closes late Sunday afternoon.

This will be the world premiere of a game-changing advancement in the
development of desktop graphical user interfaces (GUIs). FreeTUIT
removes the verbosity, tedium, and confusion from GUI development and
provides a unified syntax for widget layout and configuration which
supports good software design practice without getting in the way of
rapid application development.
FreeTUIT is a syntax and runtime for concisely declaring the layout and
configuration of GUI widgets (such as forms, toolbars, buttons, and
dialogs). The freetuit interpreter drives a unified object layer which
is accessible from event callbacks. This takes you from a blank page
to a static demo of the layout with zero setup and allows desktop
applications to be developed and deployed faster than web applications
by simply removing the HTML, CSS, XML, HTTP, Javascript, Database,
Network, and User Agent components.2008-12-18 03:00:00http://pdxlinux.org2008-12-16 06:38:382008-12-17 19:05:25 :2008-12-18 05:00:00

Java Enterprise Performance Tuning typically is viewed as someone else's job.
QA will do it.
Operations will figure it out.
Isn't the Dev guys supposed to find these things?
But in fact it can and should be done across the lifecycle.
We will explore this new concept and other topics such as:
# GC diagnosis while under load
# Is my Framework doing what I want?
# Hello? Is this thing (caching) on?
# Who's your daddy? (How do services really interact)

Chris will review the results of these benchmarks with an eye to addressing the following questions:
# How does performance vary across JVM vendors?
# How does performance vary across JVM versions?
# How does performance vary across operating systems?
# How does the performance of 1.4 features differ from their 1.5+ replacements?
# How true are commonly held assumptions about Java performance?
# Can we generate simple rules of thumb for high-performance Java SE programming?
There will also be a short discussion of the tradeoffs between micro- and macro-benchmarks. Because this is a work in progress, comments and observations about Project Bonneville's benchmarking methodology, or suggestions for future benchmarks, are especially welcome.
Chris promises a LOLCAT-free presentation, though there may be a slide or two of his kids.

Since there are only tech entrepreneurs all conversation can be open and honest. The agendas will be loose - basically we just want everyone to be able to talk about their issues with their peers. The candid dialogue will allow for collaboration in supporting each others companies. Sometimes we might have themes or guests but the evening will often self organize.
Thanks Chime Software for letting us use your awesome office and for the keg!
Participants can also Request to join the Tech Entrepreneur ONLY Group on the Social Network where candid conversations and requests can be taken online.

Instead of a formal Board of Advisors, we are like a Board of Peers. Our events are for tech startup executives only - sorry services providers you can't attend.
Request to join the "StartUp Exchange" group on the social network. It's an invite only group where ideas can be circulated between entrepreneurs.
Our events are organized into 3 categories so attendees can talk with peers experiencing the same issues. Before the event post the specific topics that you would like to discuss on the social network group. Those topics will be emailed to attendees prior to the event. Come to discuss those specific topics or to participate in one, or multiple, of the 3 areas that the group will continually be divided into:
1. Have code, need customers
2. Have customers, need code
3. Have code and customers, need business support
Finding the place is pretty tough (kind-of like starting a tech company)

Much like his love for climbing mountains he enjoys programming because it provides endless new discoveries, elegant workarounds, summits and valleys. His adventures in climbing have taken him many places. Likewise, technology has brought him many adventures, including: Pascal and Assembly back in the early 90's; Pe de range skills and professions that make the Internet work.

How It Works
It’s simple. When you arrive, you’ll get a sticker to wear. Venture forth, find another sticker-wearer and offer them a drink. That’s the trick: you can’t just drink your own, that just wouldn’t be social. It’s a great way to break the ice.
Come join us downstairs at the Life of Riley tavern. There's no charge to come spend a few hours with your fellow creatives, but in the spirit of the season, we'd encourage you to bring along a canned good donation and wear your best, bad, holiday sweater.2008-12-10 23:00:00http://www.portland.aiga.org/events/2008/12/247745692008-12-10 22:50:302008-12-10 22:50:30 ; 2008-12-11 00:00:00efing503-326-2682

His industry experience ranges from specialty chemicals, biotechnology, the baking industry, and start-up consulting. Mr. Bakken set up Asian operations in Singapore and from that base built an overseas sales organization from the ground up for Buckman Laboratories, a leading international specialty chemical manufacturer. Ultimately Mr. Bakken served as the Division Manager for East Asia. Upon returning home, Mr. Bakken was presented with the challenge of growing micro algae in Oregon by an investment group. He was instrumental in securing investor funding and built the infrastructure and technical and production team that transformed the idea into a reality. Mr. Bakken then went on to be a key player in the vertical integration of a national baking mix R&D firm that lead to its acquisition by Cargill. A consulting position introduced Mr. Bakken to the green and renewable energy s espite cloudy days and rainy weather, solar energy can be a smart choice for homes and businesses in Oregon.

The key to Pecha Kucha Night is its patented system for avoiding this fate. Each presenter is allowed 20 images, each shown for 20 seconds each – giving 6 minutes 40 seconds of fame before the next presenter is up. This keeps presentations concise, the interest level up, and gives more people the chance to show. Pecha Kucha (which is Japanese for the sound of conversation) has tapped into a demand for a forum in which creative work can be easily and informally shown, without having to rent a gallery or chat up a magazine editor. This is a† demand that seems to be global – as Pecha Kucha Night, without any pushing, has spread virally to over 100 cities across the world. Find a location and join the conversation.

About ԡG 3Q3 33 3 Speaker: Mike O'Brien of OSD - How's *Your* Carbon Footprint? A quick energy audit. We know that tracking our personal energy use and carbon emissions is critical to reducing needs for imported energy, our impacts on the climate, and on the environment. As Lord Kelvin so famously said, "That which cannot be measured, cannot be improved." As of today, we have to figure out our own ways to measure our energy and carbon footprints. Some parts are fairly easy--for example, our utility bills can tell us a lot about our energy use. But what about food? What's the embodied energy and carbon emissions of our diet? Did you know a meat-eater could reduce h +w \5 W IC339 % Hotlips Pizza SE Hawthorne (at 22nd) 2211 SE Hawthorne, Portland ORhttp://www.hotlipspizza.com2008-11-04 22:42:392008-12-09 14:15:092211 Se Hawthorne BlvdPortlandOR97214US@F ^*nhg503.234.9999 4 Y 333 Kveton's2822 SW Boundary St, Portland OR 972392008-11-04 17:57:582008-11-04 17:57:582822 Sw Boundary StPortlandOR97239US@Fكu^3/uK~3 33 Hotel deLuxe - 729 SW 15th Ave - Portland, OR 97205 - USA2008-11-03 16:22:212008-11-03 16:23:10;b :V2 33 OTBC - 12725 SW Millikan Way, Suite 101 - Beaverton, OR 97005 - USA2008-11-03 16:17:402008-11-03 16:19:25;b <O1 _M331 % Aquariva0470 SW Hamilton Court, Portland OR 97239http://www.aquarivaportland.com/2008-11-03 16:00:232009-09-02 23:43:24470 Sw Hamilton CtPortlandOR97239US@FfQ^ 503 802 5850 @ kd this meeting’s content should be of interest to both Ruby and Python programmers.

֊ ԡ 'u3 33 3 CouchDB introJoin us November 5th at 6 PM for Chris Anderson's introduction to the CouchDB framework. Chris is a Portland-based entrepreneur at Grabb.it and the co-author of an upcoming O'Reilly book on CouchDB.
Apache CouchDB is a distributed, fault-tolerant and schema-fr
ee document-oriented database accessible via a RESTful HTTP/JSON API. Among other features, it provides robust, incremental replication with bi-directional conflict detection and resolution, and is queryable and indexable using a table-oriented view engine with JavaScript acting as the default view definition language.
CouchDB is written in Erlang, but can be easily accessed from any environment that provides means to make HTTP requests. There are a multitude of third-party client libraries that make this even easier for a variety of programming languages and environments.
This event is free to the public. In order to accommodate the appropriate number of attendees, please rsvp to: thomas@opensourcery.com.
The event takes place at OpenSourcery: 711 SE Ankeny (on Ankeny and SE 7th, one block south of Burnside). We encourage biking and public transportation.2008-11-06 02:00:00https://www.opensourcery.com/news/2008/10/introduction-couchdb2008-11-01 08:55:012008-12-10 20:54:06 =2008-11-06 04:00:00

In this talk, I will outline my visionary and long-term research efforts to address the grand challenge of building, organizing, and programming future computing machines. First, I will review some exemplary future and emerging computing devices and highlight the particular challenges that arise for performing computations with them. I will then delineate potential solutions on how these challenges might be addressed.

ABSTRACT:
Since the beginning of modern computer science some sixty years ago, we are building computers in more or less the same way. Silicon electronics serves as a physical substrate, the von Neumann architecture provides a computer design model, while the abstract Turing machine concept supports the theoretical foundations. That is changing: in recent years, unimagined computing substrates have seen the light because of advances in synthetic biology, nanotechnology, material science, and neurobiology. A grand challenge consists in developing computer architectures, computing paradigms, design methodologies, formal frameworks
Survive & Thrive in the Downturn?
You can also RSVP on Upcoming:
http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/1304605
Based on a recent poll, we learned that 82% of our members believe that it is important for us to explore new ways of coming together and learning from each other to survive & thrive in this time of economic uncertainty.
Additionally, 62% of the 225 respondents said that they would be interested in participating in a networking event to discuss how we can do this.
This free event is an open discussion of the fears, hopes and opportunities for Portlanders during this important time. We hope to emerge from this experience better networked, more hopeful and with some practical ideas for how we can build community through this experience.2008-11-12 01:00:00http://softwareassociationoforegon.ning.com/events/event/show?id=1153095%3AEvent%3A35457&xgi=79I6Nug2008-11-01 00:04:492009-04-29 20:12:43 ?2008-11-12 03:00:007954eeef907c91132008-03-31 10:55:452008-11-10 22:44:02 <2008-04-09 03:00:00

The credit crisis started by the housing market mortgage fiasco has now escalated into a financial market crisis and bailout but that has led to a consumer spending drop, which has led to big unemployment announcements, which has led to a further drop in all corporate values and further credit crisis due to loss of investment value and liquidity. It is dramatically effecting companies of all sizes and their ability to get loans and equity, to fund development, to fund growth, to pay bills, and to maintain employment levels.

Topic: The Future of Targeted Marketing: Micro-efforts with Macro-thinking
As audiences demand more personal attention in their consumer relationships, successful sales and marketing require targeting these consumers with creative niche efforts. One area where this trend has manifested is the broader use of microsites - campaign-specific webpages that we've all seen, maybe even built. Where microsites often fail, however, is in a lack of macro-thinking - they serve a limited function and leave no opportunities to build a larger relationship. This presentation will impart key insights on how applying strategic big-picture thinking in the use of microsites can improve the quality of your sales conversations.
Moderator: Bryan Campbell
Speakers:
Brad Smith, Executive Director, Webvisions Conference

Join us Tuesday, November 11th, 2008, at Hotel DeLuxe for an eventful evening of social networking, search marketing education and dinner. Please note that you need to purchase tickets for this event.
According to the Web Analytics Association, the definition of 'web analytics' is the following: The measurement, collection, analysis and reporting of Internet data for the purposes of understanding and optimizing Web usage. While the lion-share of this definition is fairly straight forward, its the 'understanding' part that is the difference between just having a Web site, and having a Web site surpass your marketing goals.
Join SEMpdx for an engaging Hot Seat centered on the topic Web Analytics... Do You Know What You Are Looking At? You'll learn the most current fundamentals and best practices for understanding how an effective Web Analytics strategy can benefit your online marketing performa

Bev Standish will present on using animation to rescue you from dire straights. She will show how she uses animation to solve major issues in documented footage, like when the whole audience stands up to sing the Star Spangled Banner in front of the camera so all you have is the picture of someone's back, for an entire song. She will demonstrate how to create an animation, make titles, a character, and some special effects (if time allows) She will use both Lightwave 3D and After Effects.

Whether one turns to data from the Centers for Disease Control, advocacy organizations such as the American Cancer Society or from published research in the New England Journal of Medicine, one finding resounds--more than 70% of what drives our health status is the result of the choices we make.

Tour de Lab is a bicycle tour of the three Lucky Lab brew pubs. You’ll journey along urban routes on this 18-mile ride. But if you feel you really need to earn that pint, you can choose the 40-mile Big Dog course.
At each of the rest stops you’ll earn your doggie gear: tail, ears and nose. Once you’re fully dogged up, it’s time to kick back, relax and enjoy the dog days of summer with your Tour de Lab pint of Lucky Lab’s handcrafted ale. The commemorative print glass is yours to keep.

media�now asks if this is the end of free market
capitalism.�How�can we seize the opportunity presented by�the
greatest economic crisis since the Great Depression� and
replace the failed�economics of competition and greed
with�a�new�economics of equitable cooperation?
�
Clarity of analysis and effective action begin�with�focused
public conversation.
The event starts at 6 PM, but please arrive earlier if you want
to assure yourself a table.�
ROBIN HAHNEL�has just returned from Dublin, Ireland, where he
argued for alternatives to free-market capitalism before the
University Philosophical Society at Trinity College, University
of Dublin. Earlier this fall, Hahnel spoke at the "Local
Alternatives to Confront the Crisis of Capitalism" conference
in Lara, Venezuela. In the last month, he has discussed the
financial crisis on many media outlets, including Al Jazeera,
and RT� (Irish public radio), as well as locally on the
able economic
system�from�the rubble of the financial collapse?�Is New Deal
2.0 possible? A New Green Deal?�
Celebrating the lively & relaxed form of a poetry reading, this
event will feature a bit of poetry, but mostly, talks by two
radical economists about the financial crisis. Urgent times
demand "spending" our Saturday nights discussing
economics--albeit with joy and revelry!�
Our media swells with confusion regarding the financial crisis.
What caused it? Who is responsible? What�lessons are�to be
learned? What do we make of the financial�bailout?�Must it
be�"socialize loss and privatize gain?" How can we�aid Main
Street instead of Wall Street? Which�initiatives should we
oppose and which should we support?�Free market ideologues

Fun and Games at Work
Frishberg introduces design games: structured, time-limited and enjoyable activities to involve your customers, your users, and your team. They focus your audience on specific questions related to products and services such as prioritization of features, what’s not working well, how a product fits into daily life, and what kind of physical-digital environment your customers live in. In the end, your team has data to drive decisions, and even had some fun along the way!

They follow a basic pattern but often vary from that and have special formats for meetings based on their on-going discussions.
The meetings always start with introductions and a usually have a solicitation for topics. Topics tabled that are current issues in performing a person's job are given priority. The topics are selected based on the rules of the specific roundtable and the topics are opened for discussion. On occasion, prearranged topics are discussed. This would be in cases where preparation time for topic facilitation might be needed.

X iԡC 5+3Q33 3 The Ethics of eWasteElectronic waste or "e-waste" is broken or unwanted electrical or electronic devices. Many components of e-waste are considered toxic. Due to the difficulty and cost of recycling used electronics as well as lacklustre enforcement of legislation regarding e-waste exports, large amounts of used electronics have been sent to countries such as China, India, and Kenya, where lower environmental standards and working conditions make processing e-waste more profitable. Oso Martin, President of Bear eCycling, will discuss the ethics of ewaste, and what is being done in Portland.

FreeTUIT gives you that first tuit for free. Now you can write a simple cross-platform desktop application without writing any code. Just declare the widget layout and put a shebang line on it and you have an executable application. From there, it's a simple matter of programming to respond to input events.
FreeTUIT is a syntax and Perl runtime for concisely declaring the layout and configuration of GUI widgets (such as forms, toolbars, buttons, and dialogs). The freetuit interpreter drives a unified object layer which is accessible from event callbacks. The system is currently built on top of the wxWidgets toolkit, and is currently in transition to the Qt widget set. 2009-12-10 02:53:00http://pdx.pm.org/2009-12-03 06:17:182009-12-03 06:17:18 92009-12-10 05:00:00 desktop software and understanding server security considerations are the key focus points of this seminar.

For Portland, Halprin’s work marked the beginning of a tradition of remaking the city around interactive public spaces, such as the famed Pioneer Courthouse Square. And for landscape architecture, the plazas laid the earliest foundations for the ecologically and socially responsive urbanism on the rise today.
Replete with historic photographs and Halprin’s notebook drawings, Where the Revolution Began is a historically complete document of how this pivotal moment in urban landscape history came to be, from concept to fruition.

Where the Revolution Began (Spacemaker Press, $29.95) is the story of how these plazas came to be. Born of the creative experimentation and collaboration between the late Halprin and his wife, pioneering choreographer/dancer Anna Halprin, the Portland Open Space Sequence came to life in the unlikely setting of the Portland’s first scrape-and-rebuild urban renewal project. But Halprin defied the conventions of both American urban renewal and midcentury modernism, designing the kind of inviting, exuberant public space not seen since Renaissance Rome’s Trevi Fountain and Piazza Navona.
The book is an outgrowth of “The City Dance of Lawrence and Anna Halprin,” a performance that took place in the plazas in September 2008 as part of PICA’s annual TBA Festival. The book’s release, the performance, and screening is a celebration of Halprin, who passed away October 25 at age 94.

We will discuss building a Java Swing application (installed or web start) that saves its data POJOs (Plain Old Java Objects) into SQL databases across the net (mySQL) or to a local embedded database (Derby) by using the JPA (Java Persistance API) and ORM (Object Relational Mapping) via Toplink or EclipseLink.
You will see that REAL applications get to benefit from technology that typically lives in the world of Hibernate and Web Apps. You gotta love portable SQL database data persistance without building any tables or writing any SQL!

Screening of The City Dance of Lawrence and Anna Halprin - A documentary about the September 2008 performance in Halprin's Portland plazas
Between 1963 and 1970, Lawrence Halprin and Associates realized the Portland Open Space Sequence: a quartet of public plazas in Portland, Oregon, that redefined the city and set a bold new precedent for urban landscape architecture. Comprised of Lovejoy Fountain, Pettygrove Park, and Ira Keller Fountain), plus the lesser-known Source Fountain, the plazas are a collage of striking concrete forms, gushing water, and alpine flora that, in their seamless mix of nature and theater, created a playful metaphorical watershed coursing Ignite Events - http://ignite.oreilly.com/see_it.html

Factor also brings modern high-level language features such as garbage collection, object orientation and functional programming familiar to users of languages such as Lisp, Smalltalk and Python. Finally, recognizing that no programming language is an island, Factor is portable, ships with a full-featured standard library, deploys stand-alone binaries, and interoperates with C and Objective-C.
In this talk, I will give the rationale for Factor’s creation, present an overview of the language, and show how Factor can be used to solve real-world problems with a minimum of fuss. At the same time, I will emphasize Factor’s extensible syntax, meta-programming and reflection capabilities, and show that these features, which are unheard of in the world of mainstream programming languages, make programs easier to write, more robust, and fun.

This course isn't just for programmers! Agile development works best with a cross-functional team, so we built a cross-functional course. During some segments, we'll have everyone work together in cross-functional teams. During others, we'll split into functional groups and take a deep dive into issues like test-driven development and product management.
Who Should Attend/Prerequisites
This course isn't just for programmers! Agile development is cross-functional and so is this course. Everyone who's part of an agile team (or wants to be) will benefit: programmers, designers, and architects

Sadie Medley has her finger in a whole bunch of pies. By day, she is a freelance graphic designer and creative thinker-chick. By late afternoon she can be found teaching people to stay calm while standing on their heads. In the early evenings she sings opera, and lately, she is obsessed with becoming a voice over actor. Her mutable, and restless personality make this type of life feasible.

After 17 years at record labels as founder of Kill Rock Stars and later briefly working as an "A&R guy" for the Warner Music Group, Slim is happy to now be pursuing his true calling in life - helping artists he loves - in the way that best suits him - artist management. Notable artists that Slim has worked with in his life include Bikini Kill, Sleater-Kinney, Elliott Smith, Miranda July, The Decemberists, The Gossip, and Deerhoof, among literally hundreds of others...

For a description of our goals, see this post on What is Linux Plumbing?. Thus the conference program mostly consists of microconferences addressing a particular topic or subsystem issue. Microconferences are sessions of approximately two and a half hours with several individuals giving brief presentations or demos and driving discussion. Microconferences will be run by a “runner” who selects speakers and moderates the discussion. Note that the microconference format does not preclude individual speakers giving more traditional, longer formal presentations on topics of interest.2009-09-23 15:00:00http://linuxplumbersconf.org/2009/2009-03-27 14:23:22 <(2009-09-26 00:00:00 0 | |iVD2 yfS@-q^K8% | How Can We Survive BJwEvent 2JwEvent JwEvent SJwEvent JwEvent BJwEvent 2JwEvent JwEvent SJwEvent JwEvent BJwEvent 2JwEvent JwEvent SJwEvent JwEvent BJwEvent 2JwEvent JwEvent SJwEvent JwEvent BJwEvent JwEvent JwEvent JwEvent DJwEvent JwEvent JwEvent # @LVenue~ @LVenue} JwEvent| JwEvent{ JwEventz JwEventy JwEventx JwEventw "JwEventv JwEventu JwEventt 3JwEvents JwEventr JJwEventq !JwEventp !JwEvento ,JwEventn JwEventm Jw~Eventk Jw|Eventj Jw|Event ~ ~rom Sequoia Capital and Rock Schnabel of Trident Capital.

Adoption of electronic technology lags despite popular and scientific literature that suggests such technology will transform medicine, federal efforts to encourage adoption, and a wider array of off-the-shelf software and services aimed at small practices. Observations of the work and business practices of small- and individual-practice primary care physicians can tell us a lot about the issues and constraints that affect decisions regarding technology.

Come play Werewolf with us. We have the private room in the back reserved. From 6-7 we'll have a social hour were we can just hang out, drink, and eat. Then at 7 we'll start to play. Please make sure to RSVP attending so that we know how many people to expect. You are guaranteed a spot to play if you RSVP. Donations are appreciated for the room rental. Check out our upcoming page toRSVP and for directions. We meet at the OpenSourcery offices at 1636 NW Lovejoy St. Portland, OR 97209.

After the presentation finishes we'll walk over to the Lucky Lab NW for food and drink.
The format is simple: pick a change or two from the What's New in Python documentation from 2.6 or 3.0 and tell us about it! You can use the projector if you want, but < 5 minutes. That's easy because most changes are small.
Here's an example from 3.0:
"Removed <> (use != instead)."
So easy! Find some and bring 'em to us. If you get inspired and want to share one of the few larger changes (< 10 min), check the wiki and put your name down.

Players are assigned three secret weapons, that appear to be acts of kindness or generosity. Unbeknownst to onlookers, however, those very acts will bring their victims to their knees. Players are not given the identities of their victims, only the knowledge that they are and must remain in the game area. 'Killed' players join the assassination groups until the final two killer mobs converge in a grand finale of benevolent destruction. For more details see the game description at WhereCamp PDX.

Energy Costs - Managing Today and Planning for the Future
Energy costs have increased dramatically over the past year and experts widely agree energy costs will become a key business consideration as worldwide demand continues to increase. Many supply-chain strategies are now obsolete as the landed cost of goods has risen sharply. The time is now to understand the trends, evaluate the impact on your business and develop an awareness of practices to avoid a setback in your business. Our panelists will discuss the trends we are seeing today and discuss strategies for addressing a changing business environment as it relates to energy.2008-11-12 15:30:00http://www.aeanet.org/events/EventsCatalog.cfm?Product_Major=OR1108062008-10-13 14:35:142008-10-24 15:26:22 :2008-11-12 17:00:00ht you could Estimate?http://www.cpd.ogi.edu/coursespecific.asp?pam=22462007-10-10 00:30:002008-03-17 17:33:082008-06-18 13:18:33;b`

33 3 SAOpdx: Where Do You Grow From Here? Think Outside the USPresented by the SAO’s International and Finance Forums
It’s time to start thinking about how your company is going to take advantage of the opportunities that’ll be in front of you with the upcoming economic growth predicted in the next 12-24 months. To be ready many successful software companies are looking at implementing or expanding their international strategy. Why international? One reason is that many countries are going to lead the US in coming out of the downturn. Case in point is the recent increase in interest rates in Australia - a sign that country will be an early bird in the forthcoming economic rise. Many global markets are already experiencing increases in B to B and B to C sales, job growth and other signs that we are still waiting for in the US. And with the weak dollar your solution may be a bargain in many markets around the wo ve, business owner, or technology leader at your company, we would be pleased to have you participate in our panel moderated event with industry experts in the field of eCommerce. E-commerce and multi-channel selling is undergoing an accelerated evolution which has been driven by new technologies, rapidly evolving user behavior, and business model innovation. These trends are reshaping the market and the customer experience.

Adobe has recently contributed AMF support to the Zend Framework, allowing PHP developers to easily build Rich Internet Applications using Flex and Adobe AIR that interact with a PHP backend.
Ryan Stewart, a technical evangelist with Adobe, will give an introduction to Adobe Flex and Adobe AIR, and will walk through how to create a Flex application powered by PHP and the Zend Framework. Working with Zend Studio for Eclipse, and Flex Builder (an Eclipse plugin), Ryan will demonstrate how to build, debug and deploy applications built with Adobe Flex, and how to have these same applications run on the desktop using the Adobe AIR runtime.
With this knowledge, developers will be able to easily build rich Internet applications that combine data from PHP and rich media like audio and video into a compelling application.
Ryan’s bio can be found online at http://blog.digitalbackcountry.com/?page_id=22008-10-15 01:30:00http://www.pdxphp.org/2008-10-06 10:48:342008-10-06 10:48:34 92008-10-15 03:00:00

Portland’s Community College Multimedia Club has taken on the task to execute the design and production of a 2009 “Get Naked For A Cause” calendar. This calendar will be a fundraiser to help raise money for local charities/groups, as well as for educational opportunities within the club. The three main charities/recipients chosen this year are p:ear, Girls, inc., and Free Geek. We are currently seeking Portland media professionals to get involved in the making of this calendar. The theme (beyond the implied nudity) is for all photos to be of “geeks”, or techs/media professionals. This is intended to be tasteful and fun, even a little silly.

Why : Darcs aims to have bi-annual hacking sprints so that we can get together on a regular basis, hold design discussions, hack up a storm and have a lot fun.
What : We plan to put some finishing touches on Darcs-2.4. Darcs 2.4 is a pretty exciting release because we expect it to offer nice performance enhancements from Petr's Google
Summer of Code Project, and also a nice new 'hunk splitting' feature.
We also intend to set aside at least one Darcs hacker for mentoring beginners, so if you're new to Haskell or to Darcs hacking, here's a good chance to plunge in and start working on a real world project.

OMSI After Dark is an ongoing program that offers adults an opportunity to check out cool science demos, see a planetarium or laser light show, and explore OMSI in a child-free environment. Visitors to October’s OMSI After Dark will be able to taste 6 newly-adopted Economic Development Strategy.
The Strategy, which was approved by City Council in July 2009, emphasizes job creation and business competitiveness as the path to a sustainable economy, and identifies four industry clusters where the Portland Development Commission (PDC) will concentrate time, talent and resources to meet the Strategy’s goal of 10,000 net new jobs in the city of Portland in the next five years.
We are in the process of gathering intelligence on Portland’s software sector and trying to identify opportunities for growing the cluster. The PDC and the Software Association of Oregon (SAO) are collaborating on a series of software industry round tables to help guide the development of this important industry cluster. Your participation in one of these discussions would be invaluable in advancing the understanding of industry needs.2009-11-06 23:30:00http://sao.yourmembership.com/events/event_details.asp?id=846212009-11-07 01:28:482009-11-07 01:28:48 A;b32009-11-07 02:30:00

What is WhereCampPDX, you ask?
WhereCampPDX is a free unconference focusing on all things geographical. This informal meeting of minds welcomes all geo-locative enthusiasts, anyone who asks “where am I” or feels the need to “know their place”.
An unconference is a conference planned by the participants, we all convene together, plan sessions, and have break-outs into sessions. This gives everybody an opportunity to bring to the table the things that interest them the most and lets us talk about new topics that are still new and exploratory. Part of what is important to hearing new voices and getting new ideas is lowering barriers to participation - this event is free and it is driven by the participants.

OHS, which has over 100 cats available for adoptions, will select feline dating candidates who vary in personality, age, and breed to insure there is a perfect match for all guests. Guests will receive care packages with the adoption of any cat during the event.
And unlike traditional speed dating events--there are no worries here. All OHS cats are spayed/neutered and vaccinated. They come with a microchip ID tag, one month of health insurance, and much more. OHS interpersonal relationship experts (otherwise known as adoption counselors) will be on hand to make sure the speed dating experience is a happy one.
It all happens on Tuesday, Sept. 30, from 5 - 8 pm at OHS, 1067 NE Columbia Blvd., Portland, OR 97211.

Jerry Gay will be visiting from Seattle. Jerry is a key contributor to parrot/rakudo and will be very helpful in understanding what rakudo can do right now and diagnosing any troubles that come up.
We will have a short walk-through at the beginning and if a projector is available we can use it to increase the tutorial bandwidth.
Bring a laptop if you have one, preferably with parrot (or even pugs) already setup. If you do not have a laptop or if you would be able to bring more than one, please let me know.

Three of Portland’s leading companies will tell you how they defend their domestic and foreign markets quickly, efficiently, and inexpensively, and how to make these strategies work on any scale.
What will you learn?
- How to diversify your IP portfolio to put your company in the best position to defend your markets

The show is reminiscent of days past when vaudeville and cabaret were the veins of entertainment. They combine dance, song, risqué innuendos, great costumes, loads of energy, and downright funny stuff to create a new era of cabaret. Cocktail Cabaret specializes in themed shows such as Tropicana, Viva Las Vegas, Broadway Baby, and Follies Bergere along with their more mixed shows that they fondly refer to as A Barrel Full of Monkeys.
Cocktail Cabaret has performed in many of Portland's favorite music venues, including Lola's Room (Crystal Ballroom), McMenamin's White Eagle Saloon, and the Mississippi Pizza Pub. Because the members of Cocktail Cabaret are committed to service, the ensemble also performs for fundraisers and other charity events throughout the year.

Players are assigned to be either 'Pac-Man' or 'ghosts' and the game plays out over several city blocks near souk. For more details, see the game description posted at WhereCampPDX.
About the original game: www.pacmanhattan.com
"Pac-Manhattan is a large-scale urban game that utilizes the New York City grid to recreate the 1980's video game sensation Pac-Man. This analog version of Pac-man is bein V g developed in NYU's Interactive Telecommunications graduate program, in order to explore what happens when games are removed from their "little world" of tabletops, televisions and computers and placed in the larger "real world" of street corners, and cities.
A player dressed as Pac-man will run around the Washington square park area of Manhattan while attempting to collect all of the virtual "dots" that run the length of the streets. Four players dressed as the ghosts Inky, Blinky, Pinky and Clyde will attempt to catch Pac-man before all of the dots are collected.
Using cell-phone contact, Wi-Fi internet connections, and custom software designed by the Pac-Manhattan team, Pac-man and the ghosts will be tracked from a central location and their progress will be broadcast over the internet for viewers from around the world. "

Abstract:
The theorem proving approach to verification involves modelling a system in a rich formalism such as higher-order logic or set theory, then performing a human-driven interactive correctness proof using a proof assistant. In a striking contrast, techniques like model checking, by limiting the user to a less expressive formalism (propositional logic, CTL etc.), can offer completely automated decision methods, making them substantially easier to use and often more productive.
With this in mind, why should one be interested in the theorem proving approach? In this tutorial I will explain some of the advantages of theorem proving, showing situations where the generality of theorem proving i h Eric Peterson & Thomas Bosilevac will present an overview of the recent Semphonic X Change Conference.Beer will be graciously provided by our sponsor WebTrends and the event will begin at 6PM.Should you have any questions or need help locating the event, please feel free to give Jeff or Dash a ring at:Dash Lavine: 503-962-9048Jeff Porter: 503-333-0254If you intend to join us, notification via this site as well as e-mail would be appreciated so we can plan appropriately.

We'll discuss topics such as social media, design, code, inventions, web 2.0, twitter, the future of communication, cyborg technology, anthropology, psychology, and philosophy.
CyborgCamp's aim is to have many communication channels such as Twitter, Flickr, UstreamTV, Video and Audio recordings and live chats displayed on the screen. In this way, the conference attendees can exist in three places at once -- Vancouver, Portland, and Cyberspace.
Half of the conference will be organized BarCamp style, and the other half will have structured experts on various topics.
Classrooms, individuals and businesses are encouraged to attend the event remotely. It will be livestreamed through multiple channels and will be archived and tagged for future viewing. Details on remote conference acces s will be available a week before the conference begins.
What is a cyborg? A cyborg (shorthand for “cybernetic organism”) is a symbiotic fusion of human and machine. Join in our pre-conference discussion and help organize the event at http://www.cyborgcamp.org and faster updates on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/cyborgcamp.
CyborgCamp is open to sponsors. We're interested in cutting edge companies or non-profits who are interested in education/technological development. Please E-mail caseorganic@gmail.com if you or your organization/business is interested in this. Your logo will be added to any paper brochures, the website, and will be included in live Twitter streams during the event.

3;33 3 WhereCamp PDX"Society is being transformed by new maps and new mapping technology. Our mission is to help create a free forum for people to talk about, present, explore, and learn about projects that involve place."
What is WhereCamp PDX?
WhereCampPDX is a free unconference focusing on all things geographical and cartographical. This informal meeting of minds welcomes all geo-locative enthusiasts, anyone who asks "where am I" or feels the need to "know their place".
We share a vision of a fully transparent world where data is geographically relevant and just in time.
An unconference is a conference planned by the participants, we all convene together, plan sessions, and have break-outs into sessions. This gives everybody an opportunity to bring to the table the things that interest t n a discussion about the first glimmerings of a new scientific world view — beyond reductionism to emergence and radical creativity in the biosphere and human world. This emerging view finds a natural scientific place for value and ethics, and places us as co-creators of the enormous web of emerging complexity that is the evolving biosphere and human economics and culture. In this scientific world view, we can ask: Is it more astonishing that a God created all that exists in six days, or that the natural processes of the creative universe have yielded galaxies, chemistry, life, agency, meaning, value, consciousness, culture without a Creator. In my mind and heart, the overwhelming answer is that the truth as best we know it, that all arose with no Creator agent, all on its wondrous own, is so awesome and stunning that it is God enough for me and I hope much of humankind.

The salmonella outbreaks related to spinach & peanuts, the tainted milk from China as well last year’s hike in gasoline prices that had repercussions in the increased food costs -- all fuel a debate about the importance of controlling how and where our food is grown, harvested, processed, stored, and distributed.
Central to this conversation has been the re-emergence of the idea of the food shed.
How do we get the variety in our food and yet stay local? Does local matter and if so why?

Our September Python meeting is next week and we have a great meeting in
store, including a special guest speaker!
First up, our own Brett will be show us how to produce Python eggs and
publish them to the Python Package Index (aka the Cheeseshop).
Then Leo Soto, a Jython GSoC hacker, will be presenting his DjangoCon
2008 talk "Django on Jython". In Leo's own words:
"Django is the most popular Python web framework, and have managed to go
through the hard steps of making a high quality 1.0 release. The Jython
project has awaken on the last years after a dark period, and is in the
road of its 2.5 release. This scenario presents the cool opportunity of
exploring the use of a modern Python web framework on top of the Java
infrastructure.

Attendees will gain insight with respect to topics such as:
- What industries are and ustainably grown and organic food is one of the fastest growing industries in the country. It is about environmental values but it is also about knowledge: rediscovering taste, rediscovering ripeness, rediscovering the connection between the field and the table.
Are these rediscovered values byproducts of a focus on sustainability?
Or is sustainability achievable precisely because these values are in high demand, and require sustainable agriculture and food delivery systems to succeed?
And how can these solutions scale -- is the concept of "distributed scale" an oxymoron or a breakthrough?
Our current food supply chain has become increasingly complex, involving a global network of farmers, packers, shippers, manufacturers & retailers. Your neighborhood grocery store is likely to carry more items from far flung areas of the world than produce that has been grown locally.
Several incidents over the course of last year have brought the increasing complexity and anonymity of our food supply systems to are not attracting venture investments?
- What are the attributes and characteristics of a venture ready business?
- How has the market changed with respect to valuation, liquidation preferences and other critical terms?
- How much capital should an emerging company raise?

Companies survive. Products, and the teams that produce them, survive. Individual members of the team continue to be a member of the team by virtue of their ability to survive. In all these activities we see the same lively dance of competition and cooperation, of adaptation and evolution, within a constantly changing environment.
Michael Kelly, a survivor of numerous software campaigns, will bring together the insights of famed survival writer Laurence Gonzales, some rather surprising research into the neuroscience of decision making, and some hair-raising personal experiences to illuminate the importance of agile methodologies and suggest some potential new directions.

So the question is: have we arrived or have we just started? Multnomah County believes that we have just started. That is why Multnomah County has launched the Multnomah Food Initiative – a public engagement process that will bring the community together to create a shared vision, shared goals, and the first comprehensive community food action plan in the nation.
Early next year, Mult Co will be hosting a Food Summit to bring together business interests, the health industry, local governments, and the community to create a 15 year roadmap that will do two things: (1) relocalize our food system and (2) make the healthy choice the easy choice for all of us.

Abstract:
For the last decade, the performance of GPUs has out-grown CPUs, and
their programmability has also improved to the level where they can be
used fo general-purpose computations. Nonetheless, GPU programming is
still limited only to those who understand the hardware architecture and
the parallel processing. This is because the current GPU programming
systems are based on the specialized parallel processing model, and
require low-level attention in many aspects such as thread launching
and synchr

Research worldwide has validated the measurement power of the PAM, and the ability to use the PAM and its related body of behavioral insights to render care and support with greater effectiveness and efficiency. Insignia Health, whose CEO is Chris Delaney, has built a set of products around the PAM that enable patients to develop behaviors that are crucial to becoming more active self-managers and engaged members of their healthcare teams.
In this talk Dr. Hibbard will discuss the research behind the development of the Patient Activation Measure (PAM), how it is being used to make health care more patient-centered, and how it can improve outcomes. Mr. Delaney will discuss the translational effort to build and commercialize products based on the PAM . He will describe how these tools are being adopted and used in the healthcare market place.

onization.
The need for a programming system which provides a high-level
abstraction layer on top of the GPU programming systems without losing
the performance gain arises to facilitate the use of GPUs. Instead of
writing a programming system from the scratch, the development of a
Haskell extension has been chosen as the ideal approach, since the
Haskell community has already accumulated a significant amount of
research and resources for Nested Data Parallelism, which could be
adopted to provide a high-level abstraction on GPU programming and even
to broaden the applicability of GPU programming. In addition, the
Foreign Function Interface of Haskell is sufficient to be the
communication medium to the GPU.
GpuGen is what connects these two dots: GPUs and Haskell. It compiles
the collective data operations such as scan, fold, map, etc, which
incur most computation cost, to the GPU. The design of the system, the
structure of the GpuGen compiler, and the current development status are

The Continuous Integration process is often summed up as "don't break the build," but there is a lot more to it than that. Continuous Integration done properly is all about shortening the feedback loop between developers so that any changes that affect other developers are dealt with as quickly as possible. Continuous Integration is valuable to any software organization legacy or new product development, IT, Consulting, and R&D. This talk will cover how CI works in practice, example implementation tools for Java and .NET, as well as the theory behind reducing integration times and increasing developer productivity and code health that CI enables.

In the midst of a difficult economic time it is essential to explore how the well-being of individuals and society may be best measured and obtained. The Conversations That Matter series promises to raise critical questions, incite new thinking and offer participants a forum for exploring how best to serve the well-being of all.
Each of the three Conversations That Matter features two internationally-recognized individuals who will offer insights to and engage in dialogue around key global issues of our time. The two distinguished guests will share their own perspectives and then engage each other and the audience in an open discussion. It is through this format that the Conversations That Matter series seeks to move beyond the ‘sound bite’ media to a provocative, in depth discussion on the pressing questions of our time.2009-11-06 03:00:00http://sba.pdx.edu/conversations/2009-11-03 00:04:422009-11-03 00:04:42 :2009-11-06 05:00:00 ftware Executives.Marketing & Sales SIG

Mayor-elect Adams is arguably the most technologically savvy Mayor the State's largest city has seen in its 157-year history. Driving the city to update its services with newer technology, Adams has experienced all of the hopes, struggles and success of any enterprise manager.
Additionally, software companies are the largest business group reinvesting in the city's core - a struggle for most American cities. Mayor-elect Adams sees the potential for the city's economic future strongly correlated to the growth of the software industry.
As Adams leads a discussion with the CEO's of three of the city's fastest-growing software companies, expect to be a part of a fascinating discussion that will help you map out the future of the city and one of its most dynamic industries.

In many cases, the gains made by lower labor costs are more than offset by the difficulties in managing such projects. Finding the best partner, implementing advantageous terms and then managing the project to success are the essential elements to ensure a solid return on investment.

CMS based websites may support a multi-national enterprise with mission critical applications, and huge libraries of documents. Or an entrepreneur can use a free CMS to set up an online ecommerce site, rich with online store, forums, blogs, glossaries or WIKIS. Universities use them for event calendars, on-line registration, class schedules, and faculty biographies.
But what are the issues? Does the "container" fit the contents? Does the software support the work flow? Will it rank well with search engines? Do the applications perform as needed? How do you plan and execute an enterprise level project?

Cost of each workshop is $10. You will also need to have:
* an Arduino-compatible microcontroller board, such as the Dorkboard from the Arduino Cult Induction (with the pins installed so you can use it in a solderless breadboard), a Teensy, etc.
* a USB cable for your board
* a solderless breadboard
You can purchase a complete kit that includes all these (Teensy, breadboard, USB cable, plus the first workshop), for $40 from the same site. What a deal!
You should also bring a notebook computer with the Arduino software installed, or come a half-hour early and we will help you install the software on your computer. Finally, bring wire strippers/cutters and some wire. We will have some multimeters, but feel free to bring your own.

What is a teacher to do in this age of the Internet? Dan Chapman is a teacher and assistant department director for the Web Design and Interactive Media program at the Art Institute of Portland, but more importantly, he’s a millennial. He will be sharing what he’s learned about working with millennial students, the generation gap, using technology to strengthen the student-teacher relationship, and the secret to winning the attention of students over Facebook.2009-10-29 23:00:00http://thenewcommunicators.com/2009/10/12/beyond-distraction-millennials-social-media-and-education/2009-10-25 22:21:232009-10-26 03:05:14 ;;b"2009-10-30 02:00:00

Share the sheer delight of telling people on Twitter about what you had for breakfast, and about the times when you’ve actually care about what someone had for breakfast! Tell everyone about the hours and hours spent updating profiles, twittering, texting and how you loved every minute of it. All are welcome. Skeptics and lurkers feel free to watch the show.

We are exploring a new approach to verifying typestate using assume- guarantee permissions. These permissions track not only the state of an object, but an abstraction of what operations other aliases might perform on the object. Developers annotate their code with state and permission information, which can be automatically and soundly checked for consistency. Our approach is fully modular, yet allows substantial reasoning about objects even when they are aliased by multiple clients. We will describe novel approaches for reasoning about inheritance and concurrency, and show case studies verifying code (and finding one defect) in well-tested Java standard library code.
This is joint work with Kevin Bierhoff and Nels Beckman.2008-08-12 17:30:00http://mailhost.cecs.pdx.edu/pipermail/cs-colloq/2008-August/000137.html2008-08-12 13:45:322008-08-12 13:45:32 ;r2008-08-12 18:30:00

As developers, we bring a certain set of skills, biases and preferences to business. These act as a double edged sword; we make great business people when we play to our strengths; we fail when we try to be something we're not.
There are sweet-spots in the iPhone market that will sustain, on a continual basis small, developer run, 1-3 person iPhone companies.
This is a talk about identifying those market opportunities. This talk is about capitalizing on them in a way that plays to our strengths and mitigates our weaknesses. This talk is about the choices we make when we start our own developer run iPhone businesses. Topics include:

About Dan Grigsby
Dan runs Mobile Orchard, the #1 iPhone development podcast and community site. As the rare programmer/business type guy, he's as happy running marketing hacks as he is hacking iPhone code. He's happiest giving talks that incorporate elements of both, so speaking about developer-run iPhone businesses is pretty much the rapture. Previously, Dan founded/ran startups, including one that was acquired by Microsoft and another that was the only-ever successful competitor to PayPal.

We've formed a third-Friday-of-the-month pattern, so XPDX and APLN-PDX
folks will gather once again on Friday, August 15, at McMenamins on
Broadway (in the Lloyd Center area, NE 16th & Broadway) at ~1:00 -
3:00 p.m. For more, see http://jamesshore.com/Calendar/2008-08-15.html .
Some of us are just back from Agile 2008, so no doubt we'll have some
informal conversation about that and other topics, as well as good
food and drink. We've consistently attracted a group of 15-18 people,
so we usually have 3-4 conversations happening at once. Pick the one
that most interests you.
I have a bit of extra conference swag to give away, FCFS. (Better
stuff than last month - t-shirts, usb 2.0 hubs...)

How much more convivial it is now! Named for the Crystal's originator -- dance aficionado and entrepreneur Montrose Ringler -- Ringlers features a tall, wooden-beamed ceiling and massive, tiled bar. The crack of pool cues make a merry soundtrack in the cavernous interior. Before or after a concert upstairs, treat yourself to ales from the Crystal's brewery along with some hearty pub fare.

As part of their ongoing efforts to help consumers recycle electronic devices safely, Sony and WM are picking up the tab for this event, at which old electronics will be properly collected and recycled. The first 2,000 participants to drop off their unwanted electronics will receive a free eco-friendly cloth tote bag.
According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 2 million tons of e-waste ended up in landfills in 2005, while only about 380,000 tons were recycled. By recycling old electronics products, useful materials – such as glass, plastic and metals – can be collected and re-used in the manufacture of other products.

PANEL 2: Where are the Opportunities?
Panel Two will discuss how companies today are becoming greener, and how their companies have begun to change the way they operate, design, deliver/receive products and services in their efforts to reduce their carbon footprints. This evolution can be a great source of opportunities for the entrepreneur to innovate products and services as they help these companies become more sustainable. Entrepreneurs will learn what gaps need filling.

~ it is not necessarily the view taken by those who design them, modern computers are deterministic nonlinear dynamical systems, and it is both interesting and useful to treat them as such. In this talk, I will describe a nonlinear dynamics-based framework for modeling and analyzing computer systems. Using this framework, together with a custom measurement infrastructure, we have found strong indications of low-dimensional dynamics in the performance of a simple program running on a popular Intel microprocessor—including the first experimental evidence of chaotic dynamics in real computer hardware. These dynamics change completely when we run the same program on a different Intel microprocessor, or when we change that program slightly. All of this raises important issues about computer analysis and design. These engineered systems have grown so complex as to defy the analysis tools that are typically used by their designers: tools that assume linearity and stochasticity, and essentially ignore dynamic

On September 12 and 13, 'From Side Project to Startup' will focus on the resources, planning, and above all initiative needed to make idle thoughts, plots, plans, and what-ifs come to fruition.
The event is crystallized around several 'seeded' sessions, but the BarCamp-style 'unconference' sessions led by participants are the meat-and-potatoes of the weekend.
You'll notice the schedule includes a lot of 'schmooze,' snack, break and party time. With this as well as the unconference time to meet and discuss with people, it's a goal of 'From Side Project to Startup' that a network of interested startups will form to provide each other with peer support and accountability. You can do it, keep going!
As always, Legion of Tech events are free to participants, so please come share, experience, and enjoy the community we're all part of.

~Jonas Mekas, Walden (1969)
As a film programmer, my one hard and fast rule was to actually watch anything before screening it. A lot of movies sound really great on paper and are really crap on the screen. This Sunday, we're going to take that one little rule, fold it up like a paper airplane, and toss it out the window.
Home Movie Day is an international celebration of the art of amateur movie-making on 8mm and 16mm film. Whether it's footage of grandma blowing out candles at her 80th birthday party or a cops-and-robbers movie made by grade-school kids, this is an opportunity to share, preserve and celebrate old films.
For this event, community members are encouraged to bring their home movies for inspection and potential exhibition. Local film experts, along with archivists from the University of Oregon Libraries, will assess the physical condition of th

The enduring success of Home Movie Day lies in the thrill of uncovering original film footage of places, people and events -- both familiar and strange -- that may have rested unseen in household closets for decades. At a 2006 Home Movie Day event in New Haven, Connecticut, amateur film maker Robbins Barstow shared his 1956 travelogue "Disneyland Dream," which captured his family's visit to the Magic Kingdom in its first year of operation. Also captured in the background is a fleeting glimpse of future comedian Steve Martin selling guidebooks in a top hat and striped pink shirt. See the clip below for a preview.
Screenings and education will take place on Sunday, Oct. 18, from noon to 5 p.m. at the UO Portland's White Stag Block, 70 NW Couch St. Admission is free.

Intellectual Property Rights in the Digital Age
Presented by Eric Prager
An intellectual property lawyer specializing in digital media
Thursday January 15, 2009 7PM
Copyright laws have been around for a long time, but the digital age is - well pretty new. Are the old laws really inadequate? Is the Digital Millennium Copyright Act a good thing?
Can you legally photograph in the subways, City Streets, Grand Central Station, Central Park, Disneyland, etc. How about photographing private property within view of a public street, such as store windows? Are celebrity photos fair game: even in private locations? If a secu { ent environment based on Cocoa for Mac OS X.
In his talk, Raven will provide a basic overview of the process of developing and distributing software for the iPhone and iPod touch, and share some key findings and metrics gathered in the two weeks since the launch of the App Store. What does the App Store mean for third party mobile developers?
Raven Zachary is the founder of iPhoneDevCamp, a not-for-profit gathering to develop applications for iPhone and iPod touch using both the native SDK and web standards, and is a technology industry analyst with The 451 Group, where he covers open source technology.
Raven's interest in Apple's mobile technology extends back to the Newton in the mid-1990s, and he was a former MacWEEK columnist covering Apple's launch of Mac OS X. He is regularly quoted by the media on issues relating to the iPhone and separately, open source.

SCALE's mission is to evangelize the advantages of Open Source software. Open Source software is any software that meets the litmus test of the OSI (Open Source Initiative). Examples of OSS are Linux and the various BSD operating systems, and applications such as OpenOffice.org and Firefox.
Our target audiences are both current and potential users of OSS. Those users can be individual computer users, educational institutions, or businesses.
The Expo's educational focus is composed of (but not limited to) technical seminars and booths where, among other things, both commercial software and hardware vendors, and local non-profit groups (for example, Linux Users Groups), participate in product display, and software demonstrations and tutorials, respectively.
We are vendor- and distribution neutral in our outreach efforts.

Yet in that short time major companies like SAP, Microsoft, Oracle, Google, eBay and Amazon have evolved. Seven is the story of the seven major business models we’ve seen in the software industry. More importantly, Seven is a story told from the experiences of some of the major players to inform those in the industry of lessons learned. Successes and failures, triumphs and defeats, Seven is focused on helping everyone in the software industry be prepared for the next major shifts in this dynamic and important industry.

A polyglot programming group meeting in the heart of The Beave. We seem to talk a lot about oddball programming languages and their features. And the usual geekery you'd expect from a programmer's group.

What to expect We are focusing on WordPress blogs for this workshop. We chose WordPress so that if your blog is going well enough and you need to graduate to a hosted blog, you're data and experience will be compatible. By the time you leave the workshop, you'll have a blog that is ready to go and some direction on how to connect with other local bloggers. We are expecting people from all skill levels, including the technically challenged. Everyone will be treated with respect and will be encouraged. We'll be hosting the event at Webtrends. There are some computers available to use, but we highly recommend bringing your laptop if you have one as there likely won't be enough computers for everyone. Help us get the word out! Most of the people we're hoping to reach are either to far outsid e of our social circles or are offline completely. We could use your help in letting people know about this free workshop to get a blog up and running. We don't care if your motivation to blog is personal, professional, or political; we'll help you get one up and running. * Tweet the link to this page http://bit.ly/ufsYL * Email this page to a friend * RSVP on Upcoming and Calagator * Tell someone in real life using your voice. Crazy, huh? Why is this free? We're hoping to make new friends and be good citizens. We don't want to be an insular group, so we want to enable others to join. And, because we're Portlanders inspired by other Portlanders to DIY and that Yes We Can. :) Help out If you have experience with installing WordPress, we'd love to have you help answer people's questions.

Wed 23 5pm - 7pm
The Freak Mountain Ramblers present a unique blend of Rock 'n Roll, Bluegrass, Alternative Country, and Country Blues. With a lineup including 3 members of the inimitable and notorious Holy Modal Rounders/ Clamtones amalgamation of the '70s and '80s, FMR has its roots in the underbelly of the alternative music scene that existed at that time both in Portland and across the country.
During the past 10 years FMR has accumulated a loyal following in the Portland area by dependably creating beauty and bedlam at their live shows. Unlike any other band in the Pacific Northwest, FMR presents a show where the spotlight rotates among 4 lead singer/songwriters, each with his own distinct character and approach to life and music. The 5th member is a veteran drummer with his own tale to tell, and even an occasional song to sing.

Last Christmas they ran a special called Buy One, Get one which allowed you to buy an OLPC (pictured left) for a child somewhere in the world and you would get your own. Once it hit the geek market in America, the possibilities have been endless. I was amazed at how cool this little guy was and how simple it was to use.

LOCATION: Galois, Inc. 421 SW 6th Ave. Suite 300 (3rd floor of the Commonwealth Building) Portland, Oregon ABSTRACT: Arrays have traditionally been an awkward data structure for Haskell programmers. Despite the large number of array libraries available, they have remained relatively awkward to use in comparison to the rich suite of purely functional data structures, such as fingertrees or finite maps. Arrays have simply not been first class citizens in the language. In this talk we'll begin with a survey of the more than a dozen array types available, including some new matrix libraries developed in the past year. I'll then describe a new efficient, pure, and flexible array library for Haskell with a lis t like interface, based on work in the Data Parallel Haskell project, that employs stream fusion to dramatically reduce the cost of pure arrays. The implementation will be presented from the ground up, along with a discussion of the entire compilation process of the library, from source to assembly. ABOUT THE GALOIS TECH TALKS: Galois (http://galois.com) has been holding weekly technical seminars for several years on topics from functional programming, formal methods, compiler and language design, to cryptography, and operating system construction, with talks by many figures from the programming language and formal methods communities. The talks are open and free. If you're planning to attend, dropping a note toCome have drinks with her in the bar of the Governor Hotel! Starts at 8:30pm, and goes until late. Charlene says if you bring your copy of Groundswell, she'll sign it, and buy you a drink. :-)

Almost every one of these businesses will transfer ownership at some point in time, the vast majority through an outright sale of the company. But those responsible for handling transactions involving companies with intangible value are often faced with a number of hard questions: How will the buyer perceive value? In which sectors can the best buyers be found? Can the right investment banker add value to the transaction? Myths regarding the sale of an intangible company are subtle. What we mean by myths in this context are the so-called truths that most people believe about the sale process. We'll examine why these myths are not true and illustrate how they can have a negative effect on the sale process.2009-04-23 18:30:00http://www.meetup.com/otbc-events/calendar/9828761/2009-04-13 02:00:33 <2009-04-23 20:00:0009:29 >G2009-01-13 20:00:00 TION OF TECHNOLOGY AND MONEY

How you help others when you network impacts how often they will think of you and whether they will work with you. If you're only thinking of yourself, this will become apparent to others quickly.

What can you do to get unstuck with social media and move forward?
1. Get clear on what social media technology you need and learn it.
Begin to make the mental shift away from an overwhelmed, over-worked self-employed person to a business owner who recognizes what resources s/he needs from social media, and then learn how to automate those resources, so your only spending as much as time as needed on social media.
2. Accept that you either don't have a marketing plan for your social media presence, or that the existing one is lame.
You can easily learn the eight simple steps to setting up a social media marketing plan that works. You were able to master the skills of your profession or trade, so you can master the technology and marketing for social media.
3. Let go of being negative about social media.
Social media is here to stay. Become empowered and unstoppable in your use of it. Decide to do whatever it takes to learn and integrate it into your business. A chang duce downtime through automation - withstanding failures, protecting and recovering data, and overcoming resource constraints online without disruption to service levels

Entrepreneurs and small business owners often go with their gut feel - but that can be misleading. Not all of your target customers think the way you do!
How do you make sure that the demand is there, before you spend a lot of time and money developing and deploying a product or service? Validating the market first decreases your risk, and gives you a much better understanding of how to approach your market with the most effective messaging and marketing.
OTBC executive director Steve Morris will take you step by step through the process of validating your market, so you can be more confident that you are addressing an unmet need, and that customers will actually be willing to pay.

Almost every one of these businesses will transfer ownership at some point in time, the vast majority through an outright sale of the company. But those responsible for handling transactions involving companies with intangible value are often faced with a number of hard questions: How will the buyer perceive value? In which sectors can the best buyers be found? Can the right investment banker add value to the transaction?
Myths regarding the sale of an intangible company are subtle. What we mean by myths in this context are the so-called truths that most people believe about the sale process. We'll examine why these myths are not true and illustrate how they can have a negative effect on the sale process.2009-04-23 18:30:00http://www.meetup.com/otbc-events/calendar/9828761/2009-04-13 02:01:46 <2009-04-23 20:00:00:562009-01-22 00:00:00

What has changed during the past two years? Where are things headed for your business? Companies are reinventing themselves in a variety of ways - through diversification of products and markets; by shifting more manufacturing and sourcing to Asia; by hiring or contracting for staff whose skills weren’t even mentioned in job descriptions at the turn of the century (10 years ago!) With all of this change, what’s happening to the engineering jobs in Portland, and how does the role of the Engineering Executive need to change and adapt?
This dinner forum is available to CTO and Engineering Executives from member and nonmember companies.

Five local members of the architecture and design community explore ideas about how Portland will grow and change in the years ahead.
The five participants are Rudy Barton, an architecture professor at Portland State and longtime chair of the school's architecture department; Rick Potestio, one of the city's most talented architects; Mike McCulloch, former head of the city's Design Commission and a veteran architect; Carol Mayer-Reed, a founding principal of landscape architecture firm Mayer-Reed; and William Tripp, another venerable local architect.
Pdxplore Barton's focus w y ill be Portland's relationship to the Willamette River. Coming to Portland from New Orleans, he knows the tremendous opportunity but also the risk facing such environments. Reed will use a variety of aerial photos and other research material to try and define what makes the city unique from a topographical and natural perspective. McCulloch is creating a series of diagrams for the city called "River, Ravine and Ring". Tripp will present in his drawings the potential of what he calls "ritual space", the outdoor public areas essential to creating and fostering community. Potestio also loves to draw, and his illustrations will present a look at a Portland of tomorrow and how it can be far more dense without sacrificing what makes us unique.
On Tuesday, July 8 from 6-9PM, there will be a panel discussion in which the five designers discuss their work and ideas.

GLOBAL IMPACT OF INCREASING HUMAN LONGEVITY
At an alarming and unprecedented rate, science & technology are elongating the chronological limits of human mortality. Are death from disease, aging, and war necessary to control human population? What if humans did not die? Will greatly-increased human lifespans necessitate birth licensing or mass-sterilization of populations? Is anti-aging science a problem, or a solution?

Museums and cultural institutions are increasingly required to balance visitors' expectations of interactive presentations in the museum with the institutional goal of promoting forms of social interaction that enrich the visitor experience. To meet these needs, institutions are turning to multi-user, or group, interactive scenarios.
Jen and Matt , members of the stellar Second Story Studios team, will show how understanding people’s needs and tendencies—and the learning curve for people that must be managed in multi-user experiences—can be squared with innovations offered by ever-changing technology and hardware, design obstacles and opportunities, and the desire to wow visitors while offering designs that are appro

Topics include:
* how not to manage volunteers
* how not to promote your project to potential users
* how to avoid releasing software
* how to let bottlenecks derail your plans
* how to reduce the quality of your code
* how to chase away interested volunteers
* how to chase away core contributors

Abstract: Understanding how functional languages represent data structures is key to writing efficient programs in such languages. There are a number of new tools in the Haskell ecosystem for understanding what the compiler is doing: vacuum - for visualizing the heap, criterion - for statistically sound benchmarking, and powerful new type system features enabling new kinds of library design. This talk will introduce these tools, and we'll look at how they impact the way we develop new data structures in Haskell.

Slides will advance automatically every 20 seconds, so everyone has to keep their pitch short and to the point. Refreshing, right?
PdxCAN is new to the scene, too. It grew out of a recent session hosted by the PAF about the power of local creative agencies working together. The idea behind PdxCAN is to tap into the tremendous pool of talent we have here and build a network that can better compete with full-service agencies and big name shops in NYC, Chicago and San Fran.
The cool thing about PdxCAN is what it isn’t—i.e., it’s not about sub-contracting pieces of a project to someone el at Galois, Inc, in Portland, where he works on assurance in critical systems. Don is co-author of the book, Real World Haskell (http://realworldhaskell.org), and the XMonad window manager. He enjoys cycling and hoppy beer.
GROUP: Join programmers, researchers and enthusiasts to discuss functional programming. pdxfunc is a study/user group exploring the world of functional programming based in Portland, Oregon. The group welcomes programmers interested in all functional languages, including Haskell, Erlang, OCaml, Scala, and others. The group meets regularly and provides presentations, demos and discussions applicable to all skill levels, from newbies and experts. The meetings are usually on the second Monday of the month.
VENUE: Space for the meeting is kindly provided by NedSpace, a co-working space for startups, innovative technology companies, non-profits, artists and social entrepreneurs.

It’s about bringing together diverse expertise—advertising, design, interactive, writing, animation and so on—to deliver an integrated solution. It sounds good in theory, but it presents all sorts of questions. Like, how do you get all those people around the same table? How do you build relationships with others who, at times, may be your competitor? And once you get around the table, what are the rules of engagement? How do you pitch a collaborative team to the client? There aren’t any easy answers, but they’re the sorts of issues PdxCAN is working on.
If you’re interested in this sort of thing—or just want to meet some new people—come to the PdxCAN Pecha Kucha night. It’s scheduled from 5:00-6:30 on June 24th at The Screening Room, 925 NW 19TH Ave. Check out the www.portlandadfed.com for more information. Hope to see you there.

Critical Mass is:
- A leaderless, spontaneous bike ride through the streets of Portland (and hundreds of other cities worldwide)
- A time to ride your bike without fear through busy downtown streets
- A great way to meet other bicyclists, pass out fliers, learn about other events
- A meandering celebration of bicycling
- Something different for everyone
- Family-friendly
- A visionary projection of what our future might look like
Critical Mass is not:
- Dangerous, violent, threatening, or exclusive
- A place to buy, sell, or capitalize
- Planned in advance
- A race to the finish
You will want to have a white front light and red rear light / reflector in order to avoid getting a citation. If you ride to antagonize motorists, please choose another time / place.

2008-06-28 03:30:00 a few months ago. I'm pleased to announce our preliminary
roadmap to version 1.0: http://code.google.com/p/calagator/wiki/Roadmap
If you're a designer, writer, or programmer, we could use your help in
designing new UIs, writing documentation, and adding interesting features.
We have two code sprints coming up:
1. Wednesday 6/18 at Backspace, from noon until it's time to leave for
Ignite Portland.
2. Saturday 6/21 at CubeSpace, from 10am until 6pm, although we often
end up moving to the Side Door and staying later.
You do not need to stay for the entire code sprint -- stay as long as
you'd like. Everyone is welcome to participate, even if you haven't
attended a code sprint before. If you want to help with programming,
experience with Ruby on Rails and agile development is helpful, but
you're welcome to come even if you're new to these because this is a
great way to learn.
Join us!

Workouts are led by Portland Ten staff, who actively work with a team of tech founders working toward the $1MM in revenue goal and deal with these types of startup situations on a regular basis.
Startup Workouts are held in downtown Portland at NedSpace on Tuesday mornings from 10-11:15 am and Thursday afternoons from 4-5:15 pm, and are $18 for 1 workout, $75 for 5 ($15 each), or $130 for 10 ($13 each).

We recently realized that we've outgrown the Jive breakroom, and we've evolved away from the BarCamp Meetup name. So, we've renamed this monthly event to the Legion of Tech Happy Hour, and the event will now be held outside on the back patio of Plan B.
The intent is to get a group of cool people interested in technology together to chat over drinks on the fourth Thursday of every month. Anyone working in high-tech is welcome to attend. Conversations usually range from wikis to open source to blogs to who knows what!
Please RSVP here as attending to help us get a count for the event. You might also want to join the Google Group to get notifications of any changes to this event and get reminders for future events! http://groups.google.com/group/barcampportland2008-06-27 00:30:00http://legionoftech.org/blog/2008-06-16 21:12:362008-07-13 04:32:15 ;N;b2008-06-27 02:30:00 sical-layer network protocol in Haskell. The surprising result is that a pure functional language with no built-in notion of time is extremely well-suited for constructing such emulators. Furthermore, we use Haskell’s property-checker QuickCheck to automatically generate real-time parameters for simulation. We also describe a novel use of QuickCheck as a probability calculator for reliability analysis.

The Linux Clinic runs from 1 to 5 PM this (third) Sunday, June 15,
at Free Geek 1731 SE 10th in Portland. The main facility and the
store are closed; we will be in the room on the southeast corner.
Not only will we have penguinos, cookies, coffee, portland punch,
and other savory collations, we will have distros, power, wifi,
wired ethernet, keyboards, monitors, and much, much more! We will
even have answers to your most pressing Linux questions, and some
fraction of those answers may be approximately correct!
So bring yourself, your machine, a notebook to write in, and what
Linux knowledge you have to the Linux Clinic! We can use helpers
as well as helpees; this is your chance to flaunt your knowledge,

increasingly clear that the networking and systems communities remain
ill-prepared for this transition. This talk provides a broad overview
of IPv6, it's features and transition technologies, and follows with a
demonstration of how to set up an IPv6-enabled firewall for a simple
network using Linux.
And a basic BIO:
Timothy D. Morgan is a long-time programmer, systems administrator,
security consultant, and Linux user. Tim's work in IPv6 has consisted
of home networking experiments and research in utilizing the expanded
IPv6 address space for spoofed attack mitigation. Tim currently works
as an application security specialist and digital forensic investigator
at Virtual Security Research, LLC.
Remember to buy food and drinks and tip your waitress well.
Jax has been very good to us over the years and we want to make sure they
survive.

Williams” at The Old Church on June 12 at 7 p.m.
Fitzsimons, who has spent 30 years researching Williams and influences on his architectural style, says that his buildings tell us about the people of the time, how they viewed their surroundings and the era they lived in. “We think of people from the Victorian age as modest, genteel – even stuffy, but their buildings reveal another side of their character: one of opulence and a flair for the flamboyant,” she explains.
“Naked in Public” is the program event for the Old Church Annual Meeting. Appetizers will be served at 6:30 p.m. and the program begins at 7:00 p.m. Dessert and coffee will follow. Admission is free and open to the public.

In 2007, SMS/MMS accounted for $100 billion in revenue worldwide. That is more than Hollywood box office receipts, dvd sales and rentals, video game industry revenue, and music industry revenue all combined. BMW Germany turned a $70k MMS campaign into $45 million in revenue .
SMS and MMS are big businesses right now and the focus on them is likely to increase now that the iPhone gains access to MMS.
How will usage of the iPhone change with this capability? How can businesses utilize SMS and MMS as part of their marketing efforts? How can developers incorporate SMS or MMS in their applications?

Summary: Dynamic, multi-paradigm languages such as Ruby, Python and Perl
allow programmers great flexibility in how they can write their code,
although most use an imperative (AKA "procedural") style. However, using
a functional style selectively can help provide clearer and shorter
code, reduce bugs, and improve performance. This presentation will

This is very relaxed, friendly and informal - so just come along for a drink or two and meet new people!
If this is your first MiPL event, feel free to come and look for me or any of the Welcome Wagon members when you arrive. We'll be looking out for new faces too.
Incidentally - admittedly "Mingler" may sound a bit like it's a singles' mixer - but it most assuredly is not! This and all other events are for meeting people and making friends, so whether you're single, coupled, married - you're very, very welcome.

This project turned into a company, Semaphore, Inc. and in 1990 had risen to be rated #1 among all of the competitors in the space (by ARCHITECTURE Magazine). By 2000, the company had over 2,500 clients, 100 employees and was acquired by Deltek.
Later that year, Ray moved to from New York City to Portland, Oregon to co-found SnapNames.com.

You'll use less bandwidth, save money, and make your readers happier.
But there is yet another reason to make sure you site loads as fast as possible. It is one of the easiest things you can do to reduce the energy your site uses. Unfortunately, most web sites don't do the basic things that would make them run faster and use fewer resources.
So this week at Beer and Blog we'll shave seconds off an example blog using simple techniques and do our little part to make our blogs greener.

We've got the technology. Now what? This discussion focuses on what the etiquette is for using social media to communicate with other people. We ask:
When does social media become narcissistic? What is the right approach to cultivate relationships in social media? When do you become a spammer, and how can you stop doing it? How do businesses communicate their brand and marketing while cultivating real relationships? How should businesses handle situations where someone complains about their services?
By asking and discussing the question we can start to look at not only what we use social media for, but how we use it to create genuine relationships, while also establishing an etiquette that enables us to maintain those relationships.2009-10-28 23:00:00http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4533764/2009-09-24 03:47:532009-09-24 03:47:53 @;b2009-10-29 01:00:00

But we've been approaching this task with a bigger end in mind.
Why, we asked ourselves, would we set up a system that only MMT could use when the need for good information is shared by other foundations... and nonprofit organizations and public agencies and official decision makers and citizen volunteers and... in fact, everyone working for the common good?? Wouldn't that be a smarter investment for us to make?
What if there was a place where we could all exchange what we learn as we go about our daily business? What if nonprofits could see the data and information that foundations use in their due diligence process? What if organizations and people could easily determine which foundations' interests match their project goals? What if foundations could quickly see what groups are working on an issue they are investigating? And so on...
Well, we are building such a place. A place where people and organiz ations can connect about subjects and places. A place called connectipedia...

While we are daily witness to the powers of progress manifest in the extraordinary mechanical technologies we have developed in the industrial age, we remain woefully unaware of the most basic causes of social change in our society. Our lack of social awareness does not result from the difficulty of understanding social problems, it results from the active repression of such awareness.
The political resistance movements that developed in the twentieth century were adapted to conditions of economic growth.

courses on programming and computing. Unlike conventional approaches,
ours focuses on designing programs in a systematic manner. The syntax
of the chosen programming languages (both Java and Scheme) is only
discussed as needed to support design principles. Field tests with
over 500 high schools and a dozen colleges have shown that the
approach produces better students than conventional approaches that
use a single language. In several controlled studies, we could also
show that students find our curriculum more appealing than the AP
curriculum.
In my talk, I will provide an overview of the project, especially its
intellectual premises and principles. My goal is to encourage you to
think about the first year in a different way. The old ones are of
questionable value. If we want our beautiful discipline to survive, we
must find a good way of teaching it."2008-06-02 23:30:00http://web.cecs.pdx.edu/~colloq/felleisen-firstYear.html 2008-05-23 12:46:042008-07-13 04:32:02 :2008-06-03 01:00:00

more groups sending data, and identifying any additional sources we
can import at this time.

I'd heartily invite non-programmers and those that haven't gone to many
code sprints to join us for this session. You can really help us out
even if you join us for part of the day.
Calagator is now ready enough that we can recommend it to many
additional local groups. We need to discuss how to best approach, assist
and involve them.
A "Guide to Calagator" article will help us explain to community leaders
what Calagator is about, how it can help them, and how they can use it.
It'll need to be written in plain, clear English with minimum jargon or
fuss. We'll need writers.
But don't worry, there will be plenty of programming too. ;)

In this session you'll learn how to articulate your software/service's value proposition. You'll also learn the skill of presenting your solution as a necessary high ROI investment, that your prospects should prioritize, instead of a high cost expense that gets differed to the next quarter or next year.

You’re welcome to come whether you are already committed or just curious about the possibilities. If you’re working with a neighborhood or a group with a related mission, we invite you to come and explore how different groups and communities can network and link together in a shared effort to build a lower-carbon future. Also, we urge you to circulate this notice to your group and anyone else you think should be there.
Here’s the program:
- The Transition Initiative in Portland invites you to meet with us to begin planning and organizing an effort to build community resilience in the
face of climate change, rising energy costs and economic decline. Building on work started by many organizations, we will put into action energy descent planning around a variety of aspects; neighborhood organizing; coalition building with partner groups; and a holistic vision of how we can cope with major changes in our lives. In the process we will create stronger communities and more satisfying lives based on sharing and cooperation.

Whoo-hoo! This time around Jason Harris (of techcraver.com fame, a most excellent tech blog) will be demoing Taptu a "super-fast entertainment search engine for your mobile." (This is the part where you get my "tap" headline pun, shake your head, and chuckle "that silly, silly @mediaChick." It's okay, I'm used to it.) Jason is the US Community Manager for Taptu, which enables media searching on your cell phone and SMS media link sharing with your friends. Intriguing, no? He'll be showing off his mobile search-and-share engine starting at 4pm, so all you mobile software rock stars should make plans accordingly. Also, in case you haven't heard...Justin and Christine are outta town. In Vegas, again. Yep, left me with the keys to the castle, at the helm of the ship. Funny thing, though.

Homework such as defining your target market; sizing and segmenting that market; developing a competitive strategy; validating that your service or product fills an unmet need; value pricing your product. And the list goes on. In this seminar, OTBC Executive Director Steve Morris will review the different objectives you might have for writing a business plan, and the homework you need to do before you write the plan - and then will review what goes into the plan. You'll leave with a detailed action plan for preparing to write a business plan -- and with an outline of what should be in the plan. The good news: once you've done your homework, writing a business plan isn't that difficult! Who should attend: any entrepreneur or small business owner who needs to develop a strategy and a plan for launching or growing their business.2009-10-21 23:00:00http://www.meetup.com/otbc-events/calendar/11501362/2009-10-05 15:52:242009-10-05 15:52:24 <2009-10-22 00:00:00 L<Õ©®¾È¼º¿ÛF,*++*0Y÷ß»kc¡£Ë*4Å£¶B<»±L+2÷½¾ÆÛÊÏN;3DNg_ÓÌWãÍÝã÷À¶²¨¥¨¸°¿ (;- / Ÿ¢¹®£Ÿ£·-% "&EÊÑHïÆçA9©ŸŸŸ ¢¯¾, /gµ Ÿř`ԡ4 333 3 Open Source: Turning a Traditional Pitfall into Oppo^ԡ E3K33 3 Portland Business Alliance presents ShopTalk Showcase at EcoDryCleaner Portland Business Alliance, Greater Portland's Chamber of Commerce, presents ShopTalk Showcase, a morning networking program featuring member introductions, a brief host presentation, and a door prize drawing.

Chris is not an economist. He is trained as a scientist, having completed both a Ph.D. and a post-doctoral program in Neurotoxicology at Duke University. Chris’s extensive scientific training guides how he thinks. He gathers data, develops hypotheses, and continually seeks to accept or reject them based on the evidence at hand.

PJUG meetings start with some time to eat and socialize (pizza and beverages are provided), followed by the featured speaker, then Q&A, discussion, sometimes a drawing to give away swag. :)
Though we like knowing how many people to expect, you don't *have* to RSVP, on Upcoming or otherwise. Go ahead and just show up!
Many people also go for a drink and further discussion following the meeting, at a location determined ad hoc (more often than not, Jax on 2nd).

If you had five minutes to talk to Portland what would you say? What if you only got 20 slides and they rotated automatically after 15 seconds? Launch a web site? Teach a hack? Talk about recent learnings, successes, failures?
Come join us for the third Ignite Portland! It's free to attend or present. We hope to have food and drinks, but we need sponsors for that, so check out http://www.igniteportland.com for details on attending, presenting, or sponsoring!
What is Ignite Portland? A bunch of fast-paced, interesting presentations - 20 slides for 15 seconds each. Our mantra is "share burning ideas" - just about any topic will do, as long as it's interesting. From tech to crafts to business to just plain fun! There will be time to network and chat after each series of presentations.

That will be a natural jumping-off point to explain why a full-fledged “GUI driver” for iPhone apps has been long in coming. We’ll look at different ways to prod at application code, and discuss the tradeoffs. Finally, I’ll introduce a simple library of Ruby glue code to connect Cucumber test scripts to the iPhone. The technique will be very basic, but just powerful enough to test a simple iPhone app. Ian Dees saw his first Timex Sinclair 1000 over 20 years ago, and was instantly hooked.

All are welcome!2009-08-12 01:30:00http://wiki.python.org/moin/PortlandPython2009-08-09 06:29:322009-08-11 23:33:56# How does performance vary across JVM versions? will be in town for Open Source Bridge and has graciously offered to lead a meeting for PDXPHP. So the Tuesday before the OSBridge festivities kick off, He (and possible a few other speakers in town), will lead a discussion on various PHP and web topics. Rasmus is of course know for creating the PHP language but is also an expert in application security, and is currently employed with Yahoo as an Infrastructure Architecture Engineer, so there will be no shortage of interesting topics for this meeting.
# How does performance vary across operating systems?
# How does the performance of 1.4 features differ from their 1.5+ replacements?
# How true are commonly held assumptions about Java performance?
# Can we generate simple rules of thumb for high-performance Java SE programming?
There will also be a short discussion of the tradeoffs between micro- and macro-benchmarks. Because this is a work in progress, comments and observations about Project Bonneville's benchmarking methodology, or suggestions for future benchmarks, are especially welcome.
Chris promises a LOLCAT-free presentation, though there may be a slide or two of his kids.

The 16 Guidelines show us a way of doing this which will benefit both ourselves and other people. THE GLOBAL POTENTIAL OF THE GUIDELINES The 16 Guidelines are more than simply words: they are an inspiration for taking action in all kinds of ways to benefit oneself and others. Many workshop participants continue to use them not only on a personal level, but also in their working lives. Since they were first launched in 2007 they have inspired a range of practical projects – in schools, colleges, businesses, healthcare organisations, drug rehabilitation centres and prisons – all around the globe. They are currently being translated into over 6 different languages, and a range of multimedia resources for children, young people and adults is under development.

For one, you’ll have a great time. And even better, it’s an amazing opportunity to network and meet fellow designers. How It Works It’s simple. When you arrive, you’ll get a sticker to wear. Venture forth, find another sticker-wearer and offer them a drink. That’s the trick: you can’t just drink your own, that just wouldn’t be social. It’s a great way to break the ice.

If you would like to present a module, please leave a comment below. Depending on the number of people who sign-up, timeslots should be around 15-20 minutes (maximum, no need to feel pressured to present for that long if you can show off a module in 5 or 10 minutes).

It’s with this same spirit that the team is taking on the Bike MS 150, a 150-mile fundraiser to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. The goal of the ride is to raise awareness as well as $2000 for the cause. We are hosting a night of controlled inebriation complete with games, possible dance party, lots of beer and door prizes at Blitz-Ladd on July 18th. The bike community has a big heart and we know you do, too! So come out and cause some Ruckus. The raffle prize list is turning out to be a good one. Details soon!

If we have time, I'll go through a simple Moose extension, focusing on the mechanisms Moose provides to help your code play nicely with others'. If the first sentence of this description was news to you, you should at least read the SYNOPSIS of Moose, and if you can get through Moose::Manual and Moose::Manual::Concepts, so much the better. I'll expect a lot of questions, but I hope to move past "what is an object" pretty quickly. By the end of the night I hope you'll have a better understanding of the depth of what Moose provides, and why has() is only the tip of the iceberg. I don't expect that everyone will immediately understand every concept provided – my goal is to impress you so much with Moose's awesomeness that you're willing to follow up later on the documentation pointers that I throw out. 2009-04-09 01:53:00http://pdx.pm.org/2009-03-25 17:24:582009-03-25 17:24:58 92009-04-09 04:00:00 X tԡ -3 33 3 ACG CFO Exchangehttp://chapters.acg.org/portland/calendar/detail.asp?F_EVENT_CATEGORY_ID=&EVENT_ID=3224&MONTH_CHOICE=5&DAY_CHOICE=13&YEAR_CHOICE=20082008-05-14 01:00:002008-05-20 00:21:072008-07-13 04:29:32;bձ2008-05-14 02:00:00tԡ S]333 3 ACG: An Evening with Gerry LangelerCo-founder of Mentor Graphics Managing Director of OVP Venture Partners Interview followed by Q&A.2008-05-30 01:00:00http://chapters.acg.org/portland/calendar/detail.asp?F_EVENT_CATEGORY_ID=&EVENT_ID=3177&MONTH_CHOICE=5&DAY_CHOICE=29&YEAR_CHOICE=20082008-05-20 00:21:062008-07-13 04:29:32 :>;bձ2008-05-30 02:00:00Iԡ E)3 33 3 NW Ecobuilding Guild Meetinghttp://www.cascadiagbc.org/events/2008/april/nw-ecobuilding-guild-meeting/view2008-05-01 01:30:002008-05-20 00:21:062008-07-13 04:29:32;bձ2008-05-01 04:00:00!ԡ 7i3 33 3 EMA breakfast meetinghttp://www.ema-oregon.org/presentation-cal.php2008-05-21 14:00:002008-05-20 00:21:062008-07-13 04:29:31;bձ2008-05-21 16:00:00 ; 5ԡ Yo3 33 3 CHIFOO;Using Scenarios to Drive Designhttp://www.chifoo.org/pages/2008.html#MayWorkshop2008-05-09 15:30:002008-05-20 00:21:062008-07-13 04:29:31;bձ2008-05-09 23:30:005ԡ ce3 33 3 FENG: Kasten Spethmann - Perfect your Pitchhttp://thefeng.org/chapters/announcement.asp2008-05-09 00:30:002008-05-20 00:21:062008-07-13 04:29:31;bձ2008-05-09 03:00:00ԡ qy3 33 3 eWomen: 1 on 1 with Michael Gerber, Small Biz Guruhttps://events.ewomennetwork.com/event/details.php?eid=8608https://events.ewomennetwork.com/event/details.php?eid=86082008-04-30 18:00:002008-05-20 00:21:062008-07-13 04:29:31;bձ2008-04-30 19:00:00tԡ Wm3 33 3 Financial Executives Internat. dinnerhttp://www.financialexecutives.org/eweb/DynamicPage.aspx?Site=ch_por&WebKey=335b4f3d-9784-427a-a270-98e70f2d62bb2008-05-16 01:00:002008-05-20 00:21:052008-07-13 04:29:31;bձ2008-05-16 04:00:00 than correcting a falsehood, no matter how small, and nothing is more odious than not telling The Truth.

We’ll examine some ways geeks lie while telling The Truth, to themselves and to others, and hopefully achieve better communications, easier to understand interfaces and maybe some personal enlightenment. Some examples include: Lies by omission, lies by precision, lies by irrelevancy, lies by design, lies with statistics and that most dangerous of words “should” as in “the user should have realized”.

PJUG meetings start with some time to eat and socialize (pizza and beverages are provided), followed by the featured speaker, then Q&A, discussion, sometimes a drawing to give away swag. :)
Though we like knowing how many people to expect, you don't *have* to RSVP, on Upcoming or otherwise. Go ahead and just show up!
Many people also go for a drink and further discussion following the meeting, at a location determined ad hoc (more often than not, Jax on 2nd).

The Invader in My Backyard: Invasive Species in Oregon
The pace of trade and travel has created pathways for invasive species to get a ground-hold in Oregon. Activities such as outdoor recreation, exotic pet ownership, and the demand for fresh and different foods have contributed to the rapid rise in the number of exotic species that arrive here. While only a small fraction of the invaders become established and cause problems, the rate of new introductions has risen so dramatically that Oregon is losing ground in the fight to keep them out. Join us as we investigate what's happening and what can be done.
Sam Chan is the aquatic invasive species specialist with Sea Grant Extension at Oregon State University.

There will also be a short discussion of the tradeoffs between micro- and macro-benchmarks. Because this is a work in progress, comments and observations about Project Bonneville's benchmarking methodology, or suggestions for future benchmarks, are especially welcome.

"They have been a fantastic compliment to the George Fox MBA program that I’m currently enrolled in. The combination of the foundational information provided by this traditional institution and the entrepreneurial education I have received by taking part in these workouts has been a great pair in preparing me to succeed in business and in life." -Travis Spencer "I have found the PortlandTen workout sessions to be well worth the time and cost.

So the designer's print ad will benefit from the planner's research ability, the planner's website analysis would benefit from the developer's expertise, etc.

While this concept is comparable to co-working, the fact that we have everybody from graphic designer, web developer to account planner (we're looking for more diversity) means that everyone will benefit from having feedbacks from folks who are experts in other things. So the designer's print ad will benefit from the planner's research ability, the planner's website analysis would benefit from the developer's expertise, etc. Collaborative Ingenuity relies on the fact that new ideas are always born, and sparks always fly when different fields of knowledge intersect and help each other.2008-04-12 19:00:002008-04-12 10:33:082008-07-13 04:29:18 :,;bՋ2008-04-12 23:00:00 v v Ӏ ԡ 'S3E33 StartupaloozaATTENTION: RSVP's are capped for this event.

PJUG meetings start with some time to eat and socialize (pizza and beverages are provided), followed by the featured speaker, then Q&A, discussion, sometimes a drawing to give away swag. :)
Though we like knowing how many people to expect, you don't *have* to RSVP, on Upcoming or otherwise. Go ahead and just show up!
Many people also go for a drink and further discussion following the meeting, at a location determined ad hoc (more often than not, Jax on 2nd).

While this concept is comparable to co-working, the fact that we have everybody from graphic designer, web developer to account planner (we're looking for more diversity) means that everyone will benefit from having feedbacks from folks who are experts in other things. So the designer's print ad will benefit from the planner's research ability, the planner's website analysis would benefit from the developer's expertise, etc. Collaborative Ingenuity relies on the fact that new ideas are always born, and sparks always fly when different fields of knowledge intersect and help each other.2008-04-05 19:00:002008-03-31 10:26:392008-06-18 13:19:56 :3;bo Ӏ 2 Հ kԡM 3 33 3 AeA Finance Forum, Sale Compensation: Effective Partnership with SalesBuild an effective partnership with your sales executive through a better approach to developing and managing sales compensation.

In contrast is free-form exploratory testing, which can appear chaotic to managers and stakeholders. SBTM is designed to provide accountability for exploratory testing, with many aspects or "components" which provide specific data. Some projects may not require all of the components that SBTM offers. "SBT Lite" is a customizable version of SBTM, which uses some, but not all components.

PJUG meetings start with some time to eat and socialize (pizza and beverages are provided), followed by the featured speaker, then Q&A, discussion, sometimes a drawing to give away swag. :)
Though we like knowing how many people to expect, you don't *have* to RSVP, on Upcoming or otherwise. Go ahead and just show up!
Many people also go for a drink and further discussion following the meeting, at a location determined ad hoc (more often than not, Jax on 2nd).

In the grand tradition of the unconference, there are very few planned talks (we'll have an open roster where anyone can sign up for a slot) and it will be completely free. There will be no werewolf.
We'll get a signup page soon.
I have a bunch of ideas:
- We'll be sponsoring a documentation drive, where we hack on Rails Documentation in exchange for beer and pizza.
- Hackfests! Let's work on something awesome.
- Keynotes! Do you want to give one? Hit me up (court3nay gmail.com)
- Workshops. We have local experts in Javascript, BDD, and more -- bring in your crappy code and we can all learn together by fixing it.
Gary Hirsch, On Your FeetBusinesses crave new stuff. And they want it now. Product cycles shorten, competitors and information spreads faster and the consumer gets more demanding. Techniques from the world of improvisation can help respond to these forces. Improv actors are real-time, market-driven innovators. A team of people works together to create something (a story) to satisfy a customer (the audience) under extreme time pressure (instantly, on the spot). They use a set of tools that absolutely anyone can learn and practice. The methods improvisers use on stage help create the conditions for new ideas to emerge.

The best part of the last few conferences I have attended in the Ruby and Rails fields have been the "lightning talks", where people have five minutes to present their idea, app, or otherwise. The other great thing about some of these expensive conferences is the networking which occurs in the hallways and lobbies.

We reserve four lodges, with a maximum capacity of 56 people, along with the meeting hall and dining room. All classes, activities, food, and lodging are included in your registration fee. A commemorative T-shirt may be offered for a slight additional charge.
A minimum of six classes will be offered at this event, two Saturday morning, two Saturday afternoon, and two Sunday morning. 2008-04-19 01:00:00http://www.pmug.org/mccamp/4-08.html2008-03-25 11:40:252008-07-13 04:29:12 :-2008-04-20 19:00:00

That will be a natural jumping-off point to explain why a full-fledged “GUI driver” for iPhone apps has been long in coming. We’ll look at different ways to prod at application code, and discuss the tradeoffs. Finally, I’ll introduce a simple library of Ruby glue code to connect Cucumber test scripts to the iPhone. The technique will be very basic, but just powerful enough to test a simple iPhone app. Ian Dees saw his first Timex Sinclair 1000 over 20 years ago, and was instantly hooked. Since then, he’s debugged embedded assembly code using an oscilloscope, written desktop apps in C++, and joyfully employed scripting languages to make testing less painful. Ian currently writes GUI code for handheld instruments as a Software Engineer at Tektronix. Ian is the author of the book Scripted GUI Testing With Ruby: http://pragprog.com/titles/idgtr 3.

A frequent consultant for animated films and special effects projects for studios such as Walt Disney Animation, DreamWorks, SONY Pictures ImageWorks, Pixar, and others, he is a comparative anatomist and paleontologist who specializes in the biomechanics and evolution of locomotion.
Using a wide variety of examples from the many films he has worked with, Dr. Sumida will describe the potent tools available to artists if they consider some basic rules of animal and human biology. In a qualitative fashion, he will guide listeners/viewers through how what an animal eats and/or its size can account for the vast majority of the structural diversity important to animators and digital effects artists in the animal world. He will then move from real animals, and show how with relatively little new information, the same rules can be applied to mythical and fantastic beasts. 2008-03-26 01:00:00http://www.cascadesiggraph.org/events.html2008-03-21 16:29:582008-07-13 04:29:11 :#;bc2008-03-26 03:00:00 A ԡ # 3 33 Working MtgA working meeting of the board officers and anyone else that wants to help (hopefully a web master volunteer) to update and redesign our website: www.cascadesiggraph.org.

We call it the "plumbing," a collection of essential interfaces and services that are provided by the libraries, kernel, and utilities that make up a Linux system. Currently if a problem exists that involves both kernel and user space, a developer must attend three different conferences in order to have the face-to-face contact with various stakeholders that is necessary to find a solution. The Linux Plumbers Conference was created to provide a forum for communication and problem- solving for issues which are system-wide and cross project boundaries. This community event includes both invited guests as well as open registration, gathering 300 stakeholders, decision makers and developers. 2008-09-17 16:30:00http://linuxplumbersconf.org2008-03-21 09:07:002008-08-17 01:36:59 9JpL2008-09-19 19:30:00 E Epplication framework: an open-source (but vendor supported) challenge to the classic web design strategies.

I'll demonstrate all this and more. Smalltalk knowledge is not required: I'll start with a brief overview of Smalltalk using Squeak, the free implementation that's even included in the OLPC XO. General knowledge of Object-Oriented Programming basics would be helpful, though. Please note that this talk is a work in progress... this presentation is a rehearsal for the actual delivery in mid-April in Brazil at FISL 2008.

The House of Representatives recently took historic action to rein in global warming pollution and jumpstart America's clean energy industries by passing the American Clean Energy and Security Act. This bill invests in energy that can’t ever spill or run out, will create millions of jobs at home and around the country, and protect our planet for future generations. At a time when Oregon is faced with record unemployment, this legislation will spur innovation and make an immediate difference in the electric, construction, and engineering sectors.
Earlier in June, Congressman Blumenauer spent seven days in China with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and a bi-partisan delegation of colleagues from the House of Representatives on the need to address global warming. He will discuss the changes that China has made to adjust its policies to be more environmentally sensitive, and the realization that China and the world cannot afford to follow the path h pjr h }ԡ) M13 33 SAO: The Dalles Clean Tech Forumhttp://www.sao.org2007-10-09 19:00:002008-03-17 17:33:082008-06-18 13:18:31;b` ԡ( S13 33 SAO: Successful Trade Show Planninghttp://www.sao.org2007-10-16 14:30:002008-03-17 17:33:082008-06-18 13:18:31;b`{ԡ' I13 33 SAO: Build and Test Automationhttp://www.sao.org2007-10-18 18:30:002008-03-17 17:33:082008-06-18 13:18:31;b`qԡ& 513 33 SAO: Outsourcing R&Dhttp://www.sao.org2007-10-23 14:30:002008-03-17 17:33:082008-06-18 13:18:31;b`uԡ% =13 33 SAO: Metrics that Matterhttp://www.sao.org2007-10-24 14:30:002008-03-17 17:33:082008-06-18 13:18:31;b`ԡ$ U73 33 SWHRMA Employmnet & Labor Law Updatehttp://www.swhrma.org2007-10-09 14:30:002008-03-17 17:33:082008-06-18 13:18:30;b` ԡ# Y=3 33 Starveups: Taking Risk and Top Gradinghttp://www.starveups.com2007-10-10 01:00:002008-03-17 17:33:082008-06-18 13:18:30;b` s U + 33M AboutUs offices2008-04-04 17:42:212008-04-07 15:07:33107 SE Washington St., Suite 520PortlandOregon@Fh ԕ^\(;bՇ 9ԁT O 33) Green Dragon Bistro & Brewpub2008-04-04 14:14:392008-05-30 21:19:22928 SE 9th AvePortlandOregon@Fs^ I^5;bՆ ; =S # S 33) A% Bus Project333 SE 2nd Ave. Portland, OR 97214 2008-04-04 08:25:182008-04-09 14:45:47333 Se 2nd AvePortlandOR97214US@F¢+8^{0Phttp://www.busproject.org/503.233.3018 R 33- ' CubeSpace2008-04-03 23:55:482008-04-04 07:41:35622 SE Grand AvePortlandOregon97214United States@F^5?|^M;bՅ 9yQ 33- CubeSpace2008-04-03 23:55:442008-04-04 07:41:35622 SE Grand AvePortlandOregon@F^5?|^M;bՄ 9yP 33- CubeSpace2008-04-03 23:55:352008-04-04 07:41:35622 SE Grand AvePortlandOregon@F^5?|^M;bՃ 9 q< yԡ0 1E3 33 PMI dinner meetinghttp://www.pmi-portland.org/2007-10-16 23:00:002008-03-17 17:33:082008-06-18 13:18:32;b` ԡ/ mS3 33 SCORE: Essentials for Starting Your Own Businesshttp://www.scorepdx.org/wssched.htm2007-10-13 15:00:002008-03-17 17:33:082008-06-18 13:18:32;b`ԡ.

Some call it Twicnic: a picnic put on by Twitter users who just happens to like hanging around each other and having conversations someplace outdoor (be it about technology or otherwise.) Kindly suggested by Bryan Stearns, we’re meeting at Wallace Park this time. Note the location: NW 25th & Raleigh St. Bring food, drinks, or whatever you’d like to eat that afternoon. There’s also a Kenny & Zuke’s sandwich shop nearby, if that strikes your fancy. Bring your books, blankets, bikes, frisbees—and, you know, other things you don’t usually bring to your day job. And there is even a sort of an after party at Makerlab at 4 pm, if you want to do that.

Tara Hunt, a.k.a. @missrogue, writes that money isn’t the capital of choice in online communities, it is Whuffie - social capital – and how to raise it is the heart of this book. In the Web 2.0 world, market capital flows from having high social capital. Without Whuffie you lose your connections and any recommendation you make will be seen as spam, met with negative reactions and a loss of social capital. As Tara Hunt has found, online success comes from building a community and being part of it – not by pushing a product or service. If you want to learn the secret sauce behind Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube, you have to use them until you love them. Hunt will lead a discussion on the power of Whuffie in a reception at souk Friday, May 22nd from 7 – 9 PM.

This is Memorial day weekend, so plan accordingly. Surprisingly, this date worked the best when a sample from the cityvote project was polled. It will be great to have a nice northwestern spring day on Monday to enjoy as a holiday (which is a huge plus). This will be the 17th Startup Weekend to take place across the globe. Please blog, twitter, IM and tell your friends about the weekend (and feel free to use this logo and link to this post). Oregon is my home state and I can’t wait to get back.

Looking forward to seeing everyone there....and of course, drinks at the Lucky Lab http://www.luckylab.com/ ) at 915 SE Hawthorne Blvd.
afterwards.
More details from Webb:
If anyone is wondering about specifics, I will describe how I recently
created a "crosswalk" table that correlates census tracts in 1980 with
census tracts in 2000 in the Portland region (well, Washington,
Multnomah, and Clackamas counties), so that we could see poverty
trends over the last 25 years.
I used PostGIS, Census naming conventions ("FIPS codes"), and lots of
outer joins. So if you like that sort of thing, I would love to hear
your comments tomorrow!2009-07-17 02:00:00http://pugs.postgresql.org/node/5542009-07-10 03:00:152009-07-15 19:22:12 92009-07-17 03:00:00

I'm TOTALLY excited about the fun in store for the Beer and Blog community this Friday, July 10. Back by popular demand is What the Shit, that Twitter dramatic reading event we all enjoyed back in May. Far too long ago, and now the wait is over. What the Shit, the dramatic over-acting of Twitter tweets, was invented by @melissalion during a moment of undoubtedly utmost genius. The reading encourages you to invite your inner cheese ball out to play and read any tweet in your very best over-the-top oratory form. Also, emoticons are spelled out and there are RULES to follow. Helpful rules as this: If one of your tweets is read, this is a compliment. Remember, there's no crying in Twitter dramatic readings. Chest beating and keening are okay. Yeah, I'v voted to supporting the growth of technology startups in Oregon. This incubator for technology-focused startups helps with office infrastructure, coaching, advising, networking, entrepreneurship education, and consulting services. * Portland Ruby Brigade: A grassroots community of Ruby programmers that meets regularly to freely share their knowledge of Ruby.

Done in my best poetry voice, I hope to make my high school theatre teacher Mr. McDonald proud this Friday. The bummer is, the limit is 6 tweets. Who am I going to cut? Soooo difficult. What the Shit starts at 5:45pm, and sign-ups start at 5:30. Go see @melissalion's Upcoming.org event page for more information and the rules of the game. One more thing: Don't forget to spread the word on End Bloglessness, scheduled for July 18th. We all know someone who's been talking about starting a blog, but might not be Internet savvy or involved in social networking and wouldn't ordinarily hear about End Bloglessness. Tell them about it. We'll set them up with a platform in one afternoon. By that way, that's MizD's birthday. I will be making something chocolate-y to celebrate for all to share.

A lot of incredibly fun solutions have been proposed to Michelle's suggestion, and unless something more compelling comes along:"I like the idea of a challenge! If I can suggest one that might be fun, and that probably has many ways to accomplish it: how about a Question and Answer section? Something where a user can post a question, and either a moderator or a user can post answers - but possibly the moderator answer always shows above other user answers or is somehow distinguished."
A couple of requirements:
- Presentations must be Internet-accessible so we can use just one laptop to keep things quick.
- To be guaranteed a time to present, make your commitment on the meeting reminder by July 6th.

Some call it Twicnic: a picnic put on by Twitter users who just happens to like hanging around each other and having conversations someplace outdoor (be it about technology or otherwise)—then give it a hashtag, so it’s now known as #twicnic. As kindly suggested by Kimberly Gehl—and back for a repeat performance—we will meeting at Glenn Otto Community Park, conveniently located by the Sandy River. Bring food, drinks, or whatever you’d like to eat that afternoon. Bring your books, blankets, bikes, frisbees—and, you know, other things you don’t usually bring to your day job.

WNG is also a great opportunity to build business partnerships.

WNG meetings generally take place twice a month, with one meeting happening at CubeSpace (622 SE Grand Ave.) and the other being hosted in the home of a WNG member. Cost is $18. Dinner and beverages are provided. Pre-registration and pre-payment are strongly encouraged; we do limit attendance to 20 women. In an effort to provide the maximum benefit to everyone concerned, we ask for 48 hours' notice if a pre-registered woman needs to cancel; this allows us to fill her slot. Barring emergencies, if you need to cancel on shorter notice than 48 hours, you will still be charged.2008-03-12 01:00:00http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/416799/2008-03-02 15:11:072008-06-18 13:17:11 9;bQ ` ` rԡB 7Y3[33 Portland Ruby Brigade[Full details at http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/416813/ ] Portland Ruby Brigade is a gathering of Ruby programmers in the Portland, Oregon, area.

The uniform switch fabric and its identical programmable interfaces replace many of the hard parts of designing the computing elements themselves. Both software and FPGA simulators of a Fleet system are available at UC Berkeley. Berkeley students have written a variety of Fleet programs; their work helped to define what the programmable interface between computing and communication must do. A simple compiler now produces the programs required at source and destination to provide flow-controlled communication. We expect work on a higher-level language to appear soon as a PhD dissertation. A recent 90 nanometer TSMC test chip, called Infinity, demonstrated switch fabric performance at about 4 GHz. A new test chip, called Marina, has just gone out for fabrication. Marina will test the programmable interface, and if successful, will give us confidence to build a complete Fleet.

Fleet accepts the limitations to computing imposed by physics: moving data around inside a computer costs more energy, more delay, and more chip area than the arithmetic and logical operations ordinarily called “computing.” Fleet puts the programmer firmly in charge of the most costly resource, communication, instead of in charge of the arithmetic and logical resources that are now almost free. Fleet treats arithmetic and logical operations as side effects of where the programmer sends data. Fleet achieves high performance through fine grain concurrency. Everything Fleet does is concurrent at the lowest level; programmers who wish sequentiality must program it explicitly. Fleet presents a stark contrast to today’s multi-core machines in which programmers seek concurrency in an inherently sequential environment.

Bio: Ivan Sutherland is a Visiting Scientist at Portland State University where he and Marly Roncken have recently established the “Asynchronous Research Center” (ARC). The ARC occupies both physical and intellectual space half way between the Computer Science (CS) and Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) departments at the university. The ARC seeks to free designers from the tyranny of the clock by developing better tools and teaching methods for design of self-timed systems. Prior to moving to Portland, Ivan spent 25 years as a Fellow and Vice President at Sun Microsystems. A graduate of Carnegie Tech, Ivan got his PhD at MIT in 1963 and has taught at Harvard, University of Utah, and Caltech. Dr. Sutherland received the 1998 Turing Award, for his pioneering work in the field of computer graphics.2009-07-07 17:30:00http://www.galois.com/blog/2009/06/30/fleet/2009-07-03 08:33:592009-07-03 08:33:59 ;2009-07-07 18:30:00 @ BKo @ ۋ5 %333 http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/luke.du1108%40gmail.com/public/basic.ics2009-11-12 13:19:462009-11-12 13:19:442009-11-12 13:19:53ۋ4 /333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4601709/OR/Portland/Mobile-Love-Android-Style-17/2009-11-07 22:44:352009-11-07 22:44:342009-11-07 22:44:37hۋ3 [333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/48442862009-11-07 01:28:472009-11-07 01:28:472009-11-07 01:28:49hۋ2 [333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/48442762009-11-07 01:23:322009-11-07 01:23:312009-11-07 01:23:34ۋ1 333 http://osql-d.sqlpass.org/Home/tabid/853/moduleid/4240/RSS.aspx2009-11-06 22:43:582009-11-06 22:43:582009-11-06 22:43:59iۋ0 ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4770750/2009-11-06 00:00:142009-11-06 00:00:132009-11-06 00:00:197ۋ/ w333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4839961/OR/Portland/Portland-Ten-Field-Trip-Sales-Training-3-Getting-The-Appointment/2009-11-03 02:06:032009-11-03 02:06:022009-11-03 02:06:05 u " 8 u <ۋ. 333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4765945/OR/Portland/Portland-Ten-Field-Trip-KEEN-Inc-Start-a-Business-Create-Your-Own-Job/2009-11-03 02:05:052009-11-03 02:05:032009-11-03 02:05:12nۋ- g333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4810348/?ps=52009-10-29 22:16:042009-10-29 22:16:042009-10-29 22:16:06nۋ, g333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4810343/?ps=52009-10-29 22:14:162009-10-29 22:14:152009-10-29 22:14:18nۋ+ g333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4788751/?ps=52009-10-27 18:38:432009-10-27 18:38:412009-10-27 18:38:46Aۋ* 3 33 http://cddefzoz.com2009-10-27 03:41:342009-10-27 03:41:34Aۋ) 3 33 http://qrugpuzz.com2009-10-27 03:32:272009-10-27 03:32:27iۋ( ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4770329/2009-10-25 22:24:062009-10-25 22:24:042009-10-25 22:24:09iۋ' ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4551876/2009-10-25 22:22:482009-10-25 22:22:472009-10-25 22:22:50 "Df iۋ& ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4533764/2009-10-25 22:22:392009-10-25 22:22:392009-10-25 22:22:41iۋ% ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4768981/2009-10-25 22:21:552009-10-25 22:21:542009-10-25 22:21:56iۋ$ ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4573030/2009-10-25 22:21:432009-10-25 22:21:422009-10-25 22:21:44iۋ# ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4647623/2009-10-25 22:21:332009-10-25 22:21:322009-10-25 22:21:34iۋ" ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4599513/2009-10-25 22:21:222009-10-25 22:21:222009-10-25 22:21:24iۋ! ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4599444/2009-10-25 22:21:152009-10-25 22:21:152009-10-25 22:21:17iۋ ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4599386/2009-10-25 22:21:062009-10-25 22:21:052009-10-25 22:21:08iۋ ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4573022/2009-10-25 22:20:582009-10-25 22:20:572009-10-25 22:21:00 / sY] / iۋ ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4573014/2009-10-25 22:20:502009-10-25 22:20:492009-10-25 22:20:528ۋ y333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4768027/OR/Portland/Refresh-Portland-October-Online-Video-For-Everybody-by-Andy-Beach/2009-10-25 22:20:222009-10-25 22:20:212009-10-25 22:20:24iۋ ]333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4770252/2009-10-25 18:29:162009-10-25 18:29:162009-10-25 18:29:18ۋ 333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4770249/OR/Portland/Founders-Coffee/2009-10-25 18:24:392009-10-25 18:23:442009-10-25 18:24:41ۋ 333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4770248/OR/Portland/Founders-Coffee/2009-10-25 18:23:302009-10-25 18:23:302009-10-25 18:23:32ۋ 333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4770247/OR/Portland/Founders-Coffee/2009-10-25 18:23:152009-10-25 18:23:152009-10-25 18:23:17ۋ 333 http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4770246/OR/Portland/Founders-Coffee/2009-10-25 18:25:142009-10-25 18:22:562009-10-25 18:25:16 conomic landscape.

What's New party! The format is simple: pick a change or two from the What's New in Python documentation from 2.6 or 3.0 and tell us about it! You can use the projector if you want, but < 5 minutes. That's easy because most changes are small. Here's an example from 3.0: "Removed <> (use != instead)." So easy! Find some and bring 'em to us. If you get inspired and want to share one of the few larger changes (< 10 min), check the wiki and put your name down. I'll be bringing *two growlers* of rare and wonderful beer from Bailey's Taproom to get the party started. Bring hardcopy of one or both What's New if you can.

Register: here Place: JFCC Auditorium, Intel Corporation- Jones Farm, 2111, NE 25th Ave Hillsboro OR 97124 Abstract Since its emergence in the mid-1990s, voice-over-IP products and services have mainly attempted to mimic the "black phone" of decades past, providing cheaper basic phone service. However, VoIP has the potential to significantly improve real-time communications if it is combined with presence, context-aware and location-based services. Peer-to-peer networks can allow building highly-scalable, self-configuring systems. This talk will give a broad overview of VoIP, including its IMS variant, and some of the advanced services that are now in development, standardization or starting to appear as products. Bio Prof. Schulzrinne co-developed protocols such as RTP, RTSP and SIP, are now Internet standards, used by almost all Internet telephony and multimedia applications. His research interests include Internet multimedia systems, ubiquitous computing, mobile systems, quality of service, and performance evaluation. 2009-06-12 01:00:00http://www.ieee-oregon.org/index.php?option=com_events&task=view_detail&agid=99&year=2009&month=06&day=11&Itemid=562009-06-12 00:06:162009-06-12 15:37:50 < 2009-06-12 03:30:00 ïÓǼ·Í81+(,/OÓ»ª¬´¬®º§¡¦¬¨¨ÇB)!" !1Aw¾»»·¹ÅÏëW[QN]ß³ª¤ŸŸŸ¦«´M9-" -=6®§ª¤ ŸŸŸ¦¯®±ÍN:-/8F?;,($$$$.;W¿¼¾ÉÕÎÈȵ«§ ŸŸ¬´À3(" $().?¸°°µµ³°¸È8-*)+0>UƼ·³µ²ª¥ Ÿ¡¤²ÊL(!

We’re going to move the meeting a week back to May 21. --- Experience design is no longer a nice-to-have luxury of a few organizations with tons of money and exceptional visionary management. It’s become commonplace for organizations that build products and web sites. Experience Design is a centerpiece of boardroom discussions and quickly becoming a key performance indicator for many businesses. However, you can’t just hire a couple of “experience designers hrough book, providing a map to successful online communities. Tara Hunt, a.k.a. @missrogue, writes that money isn’t the capital of choice in online communities, it is Whuffie - social capital – and how to raise it is the heart of this book. In the Web 2.0 world, market capital flows from having high social capital. Without Whuffie you lose your connections and any recommendation you make will be seen as spam, met with negative reactions and a loss of social capital. As Tara Hunt has found, online success comes from building a community and being part of it – not by pushing a product or service. If you want to learn the secret sauce behind Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube, you have to use them until you love them.

'Killed' players join the assassination groups until the final two killer mobs converge in a grand finale of benevolent destruction. For more details see the game description at WhereCamp PDX.

My goal for the talk is to elicit suggestions for how I could do a better job. The theme of the course is "transforming data into Information". I use a 200 Meg database, hosted on PostgreSQL, instead of the one-slide databases used in typical intro courses, to illustrate the principles of the course. The database is Federal Elections Commission data re donations to candidates, so queries often reflect real questions about the real data. Bio: Len Shapiro has been a professor at PSU for 23 years. His research interests are primarily in query processing.2009-05-22 02:00:00http://pugs.postgresql.org/pdx/2009-05-15 23:36:49 92009-05-22 03:00:00 Scala is a new language for the Java Platform that blends object-oriented and functional programming concepts. This talk will focus on the design choices of Scala, and what they mean for developer productivity. The talk will highlight what it means to program in a functional style, and show you how Scala facilitates a hybrid of functional and imperative programming styles. The talk will also explore how Scala compares to dynamic languages such as Ruby and Python. And you'll see examples of real, production Scala code that will illustrate what it feels like to program in Scala. Speaker: Bill Venners Bill Venners is president of Artima, Inc., publisher of Artima Developer (www.artima.com). He is author of the book, Inside the Java Virtual Machine, a programmer-oriented survey of the Java platform's architecture and internals. His popular columns in JavaWorld magazine covered Java internals, object-oriented design, and Jini. Active in the Jini Community since its inception, Bill led the Jini Community's S erviceUI project, whose ServiceUI API became the de facto standard way to associate user interfaces to Jini services. Bill is also the lead developer and designer of ScalaTest, an open source testing tool for Scala and Java developers, and coauthor with Martin Odersky and Lex Spoon of the book, Programming in Scala. ---------- PJUG meetings start with some time to eat and socialize (pizza and beverages are provided), followed by the featured speaker, then Q&A, discussion, sometimes a drawing to give away swag. :) Though we like knowing how many people to expect, you don't *have* to RSVP, on Upcoming or otherwise.

Chris will review the results of these benchmarks with an eye to addressing the following questions: # How does performance vary across JVM vendors? # How does performance vary across JVM versions? # How does performance vary across operating systems? # How does the performance of 1.4 features differ from their 1.5+ replacements? # How true are commonly held assumptions about Java performance? # Can we generate simple rules of thumb for high-performance Java SE programming? There will also be a short discussion of the tradeoffs between micro- and macro-benchmarks. Because this is a work in progress, comments and observations about Project Bonneville's benchmarking methodology, or suggestions for future benchmarks, are especially welcome. Chris promises a LOLCAT-free presentation, though there may be a slide or two of his kids. ---------- Sp eaker: Chris Cowell-Shah Chris does quality assurance for Oracle's Java-based Rules engine.

As part of the stimulus package, signed into law by President Obama, $19 billion is now dedicated to transforming the patient record to an electronic format and adopting standards, to be developed by Jan 1, 2010. Practitioners will receive incentives to use Heath Information Technology (HIT) standards that must be developed by Jan. 1, 2010. Physicians and other practitioners will be eligible for up to $64,000 in incentive payments over several years for the meaningful use of an electronic medical record for patients. By 2015 all physicians will be required to use electronic records in their practice. Hospitals will also be eligible for $1-9 million in incentives for meaningful EHR adoption. This stimulus package is expected to create new opportunities fo r entrepreneurs to provide technology and services to healthcare practitioners and organizations. It will also focus on developing the health IT workforce that institutions like OHSU are already doing, creating new career opportunities in this area. TIE Oregon has partnered with OHSU and lined up a great panel of healthcare industry professionals and entrepreneurs who have pioneered the development and use of Electronic Health Records, who will provide insights into this industry and how entrepreneurs can capitalize on this opportunity.

Research worldwide has validated the measurement power of the PAM, and the ability to use the PAM and its related body of behavioral insights to render care and support with greater effectiveness and efficiency. Insignia Health, whose CEO is Chris Delaney, has built a set of products around the PAM that enable patients to develop behaviors that are crucial to becoming more active self-managers and engaged members of their healthcare teams. In this talk Dr. Hibbard will discuss the research behind the development of the Patient Activation Measure (PAM), how it is being used to make health care more patient-centered, and how it can improve outcomes. Mr. Delaney will discuss the translational effort to build and commercialize products based on the PAM .

The room will have extra tables and a bar if you'd like to buy drinks.] Join us for an evening social event where you'll get a chance to meet Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto, the creator of Ruby, and members of Japanese and Oregon-based organizations that use and contribute to Ruby and open source. This event will be a great way to meet Ruby and open source enthusiasts ranging from programmers to CEOs, from journalists to city officials. You'll get a chance to learn how they're using and promoting these tools in Oregon and Japan, and discuss the open source movement and its communities. Be ready to make some new connections, so bring your business cards. This event is NOT about formal lectures or sales pitches, but for facilitating interpersonal discussions and creating new relationships here and abroad. We look forward to seeing you there! DETAILS: * LOCATION: Alexander's, 23rd floor of the Hilton Portland & Executi radically different architecture for computing called Fleet. Fleet accepts the limitations to computing imposed by physics: moving data around inside a computer costs more energy, more delay, and more chip area than the arithmetic and logical operations ordinarily called “computing.” Fleet puts the programmer firmly in charge of the most costly resource, communication, instead of in charge of the arithmetic and logical resources that are now almost free. Fleet treats arithmetic and logical operations as side effects of where the programmer sends data. Fleet achieves high performance through fine grain concurrency. Everything Fleet does is concurrent at the lowest level; programmers who wish sequentiality must program it explicitly. Fleet presents a stark contrast to today’s multi-core machines in which programmers seek concurrency in an inherently sequential environment. The Fleet architecture uses a uniform switch fabric to simplify chip design.

The payment/registration was only needed for the catered dinner.] * COST: [*UPDATE 2/20*: The event is free if you don't get the meal. However, the deadline for buying the catered dinner has passed, so you probably won't be able to get a meal at the event if you haven't paid for it already.] * SPONSORS: This event is paid for in part by The City of Beaverton, Oregon Technology Business Center, Pragmaticraft, AboutUs, and Lane Powell.

Quartz Composer (QC) is a free, powerful easy-to-use visual programming language for the Apple Macintosh. This workshop will take you from starting the program for the first time to building your own Interactive scene controlled with a gamepad. You’ll learn how to teach yourself QC, and meet others with whom you can collaborate and troubleshoot. No programming experience necessary. For more information about QC, see: http://developer.apple.com/mac/articles/graphicsmedia/quartzcomposerinleopard.html To play with an interactive video piece (written by Surya), go to http://momopro.com/stage/qc/ — click and hold your mouse on the video and move it around to control the video. Immediately following the QC workshop, from 3-6pm, we will have a meeting of the NorthWest AudioVisualists, a new group of artists, musicians, ani mators, and video jockeys, which will include live performances using QC. See http://nwav.org for more information. Required: Macintosh computer running 10.5 (Leopard). Anything from a G4 iBook to a Mac Pro tower will work. Gamepad (Mac-compatible). We recommend the Logitech Dual Action (either Apple Only or USB), which looks like a Playstation controller and can be purchased for $20 (from GameStop, Fred Meyer, Fry’s, Best Buy, etc.). You can use any USB controller or joystick, but this one will be the easiest with which to follow along. XCode - This can be installed from your System DVD that came with your computer - it used to be called ‘Developer Tools’. It will install the components needed to develop software on your machine, including our Quartz Composer program.

Gerhard will share his experiences designing and assessing socio-technical environments for cultures of participation. His approach is grounded in the basic assumption that innovative technological developments are necessary for participation cultures, but they are not sufficient. Socio-technical systems are n llectual property matters. He is affiliated with LES and Association of University Technology Managers (AUTM).

The uniform switch fabric and its identical programmable interfaces replace many of the hard parts of designing the computing elements themselves.
Both software and FPGA simulators of a Fleet system are available at UC Berkeley. Berkeley students have written a variety of Fleet programs; their work helped to define what the programmable interface between computing and communication must do. A simple compiler now produces the programs required at source and destination to provide flow-controlled communication. We expect work on a higher-level language to appear soon as a PhD dissertation.
A recent 90 nanometer TSMC test chip, called Infinity, demonstrated switch fabric performance at about 4 GHz. A new test chip, called Marina, has just gone out for fabrication. Marina will test the programmable interface, and if successful, will give us confidence to build a complete Fleet.

Worse, everyone already thinks they’re agile in spirit. (After all, the thesaurus tells us the alternative is to be clumsy, stiff, slow, and dull.) So it’s too easy for people to feel free to launch into “doing Agile” without ever having a serious conversation about what that actually means. This problem is easily fixed. We’ll just stop talking about “Agile” and start speaking of “artisanal retro-futurism crossed with team-scale anarcho-syndicalism.” There is, I think, no danger that anyone will reflexively say, “Yes! That’s just what I’ve been wanting to do all along!” The new name does more than just encourage conversation. It encourages conversation about those very properties of Agile that have become obscure as Agile has been commoditized. In this session, I’ll unpack the meanings of the new phrase and encourage you to rediscover what’s been lost. 2009-06-18 01:30:00http://www.xpdx.org/2009-06-13 00:00:53 @2009-06-18 04:00:00 ore empowered than ever before.

Come to the White Stag Block at 70 NW Couch St. on Wednesday, July 22 at 6 p.m. to hear from some of Portland's design and communication leaders and get connected in our creative community. Portland's smaller scale makes it both imperative and possible to finesse big things from many small parts. At every level — between institutions; between professions; between people — we build our best work here through collaboration, because we have to. White Stag Block Talks brings together three of the city's most seasoned practitioners of this craft — Randy Gragg, Linda K. Johnson, Kevin Cavenaugh — for a frank, pragmatic discussion about building the collaborative city. All are welcome with no cover.

Some call it Twicnic: a picnic put on by Twitter users who just happens to like hanging around each other and having conversations someplace outdoor (be it about technology or otherwise)—then give it a hashtag, so it’s now known as #twicnic.

I just thought that having it by the river is a good idea while we have this nice of a weather. Bring food, drinks, or whatever you’d like to eat that afternoon.

Therefore, when making a list of priorities, start-ups tend to list taxes right above "Get a plant service.” David Uslan, tax shareholder in charge of Perkins and Company's high tech niche, will address why taxes should be moved higher up the list, especially in a down economy. The business decisions you make today can affect your tax situation in the future, including where you locate your company, what type of entity you choose for your company, or even how you obtain sales. David will provide an overview of how your startup can effectively manage taxes for long-term success.

The app template is part of his open-source Bumpslide Library and will be used as a launchpad for discussion of the Model-View-Controller pattern for Flash application development. The goal is a relaxed talk where we can discuss the basics of why and how to separate application state from view components while touching upon some more advanced topics including data binding and the command pattern. We’ll also talk about general coding best practices and how the app template relates to some of the other frameworks that are currently floating around the web including PureMVC, Cairngorm, Gaia, and this thing called Flex. Don’t be scared. There will be beer.2009-06-27 01:30:00http://flashpdx.org/2009-06-26 19:46:30 @ 2009-06-27 03:30:00 nape

SASS is a CSS-preprocessor that automatically implement common CSS idioms and keep you from repeating yourself. In other words, SASS is a way to implement grids, sprites and browser-specific tweaks in a fraction of the time it normally takes with CSS. This month, join us as we explore SASS with Thomas Reynolds! Thomas is an experienced front-end web developer who’s into Ruby, jQuery, HTML5, & web standards. Refresh Portland is held every 4th Thursday of the month, and is a part of the Refreshing Cities movement.2009-07-24 01:30:00http://refreshportland.org2009-07-07 06:07:31 ;;b}2009-07-24 02:30:00 oing forward with a July challenge meeting, and either Jonathan or I will post the final challenge on Monday. A lot of incredibly fun solutions have been proposed to Michelle's suggestion, and unless something more compelling comes along:
"I like the idea of a challenge! If I can suggest one that might be fun, and that probably has many ways to accomplish it: how about a Question and Answer section? Something where a user can post a question, and either a moderator or a user can post answers - but possibly the moderator answer always shows above other user answers or is somehow distinguished."
A couple of requirements:

Presentations must be Internet-accessible so we can use just one laptop to keep things quick.

What the Shit, the dramatic over-acting of Twitter tweets, was invented by @melissalion during a moment of undoubtedly utmost genius. The reading encourages you to invite your inner cheese ball out to play and read any tweet in your very best over-the-top oratory form. Also, emoticons are spelled out and there are RULES to follow. Helpful rules as this:
If one of your tweets is read, this is a compliment. Remember, there's no crying in Twitter dramatic readings. Chest beating and keening are okay.
Yeah, I've got me a nice little collection of tweets in consideration for my reading. Done in my best poetry voice, I hope to make my high school theatre teacher Mr. McDonald proud this Friday. The bummer is, the limit is 6 tweets. Who am I going to cut? Soooo difficult.
What the Shit starts at 5:45pm, a nd sign-ups start at 5:30. Go see @melissalion's Upcoming.org event page for more information and the rules of the game.

It’s with this same spirit that the team is taking on the Bike MS 150, a 150-mile fundraiser to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. The goal of the ride is to raise awareness as well as $2000 for the cause.
We are hosting a night of controlled inebriation complete with games, possible dance party, lots of beer and door prizes at Blitz-Ladd on July 18th. The bike community has a big heart and we know you do, too! So come out and cause some Ruckus.
The raffle prize list is turning out to be a good one. Details soon!
If you aren't able to make it out to the party and would still like to fight MS you can donate directly here

You are probably dreading the, “Hey, wasn’t that you I saw hitting on the beer chip lady” conversation. Well, it is time to come out to do some damage control. dMob is classing it up this August at North 45. North 45 has wine, fancy cocktails, and promises to be an environment free from hop crowns, loud crowd cheers, and inebriated handstand competitions. Make new creative friends and never forget the dMob mantra… “Can I buy you a drink?”

This is our monthly gathering for the entire Portland design community. Social interaction and networking is the core of this monthly event. AIGA Portland wants to encourage discussion, business development, and help foster a more dynamic design community here in Portland. Plus, with

Yes, you can do it less than one hour a week.Social networking is a hot topic in businesses today. Many of us are not sure how it helps grow our business or acquire new clients or where we will have the time to add one more thing to our hectic lives. However, one thing is for sure, if we don’t come and find out, we will never have answers to these questions.
In this program, Taylor Ellwood will explain what social networking is, why it’s important to be on these sites, and how it can benefit you and your business. Hew will explain how to automate your social networking presence so you only need to spend one hour a week and still have time to run your business and live your life. In this class you will learn:
* What Linkedin, Facebook, Biznik, Twitter are and why it’s important t o cover general IP issues relevant to bloggers, such as copyright and trademark infringement, as well as defamation.
