March Entretherapy

**Entretherapy is Donation based and you must grab a ticket from our event page.**
Crowd-sourced solutions to your most pressing startup problems, in one handy place!
Entretherapy is a startup event for entrepreneurs (tech & non-tech) to gather and share whatever is most pressing. Basically, we’re creating a safe place for entrepreneurs in Portland to get HELP! (This isn’t therapy and we aren’t therapists, so keep your nutty childhood at home.)
**Here is how it works…**
Each entrepreneur who attends will get an equal amount of time to talk.
The first half of that time will be used to share a hurdle you’re facing in business.
The second half is opened up to the group to offer up solutions.
Attendees will receive an event recap so you won’t have to worry about taking notes (unless you want).
Oh… and we’ll eat some delicious cake!
Come prepared with a problem you want to be solved, because it’s going to happen.
If not that night, some time over the next month we’ll offer up a solid cure for what ails ya! |

| description |
COME LEARN TO PROGRAM JAVA...
The most popular & scalable computer language in use today and the language used on the AP Computer Science Exam. This session is hands-on, it is designed for immediate feedback throughout the course, allowing for students to have fun creating with Java and removing much of the frustration normally associated with
computers. See how rewarding & accessible programming can be. Students will learn clean coding techniques and proper use of advanced tools
Ages: 11-18
Requirements: Please bring a laptop setup with code & eclipse from the "more information" link below. Note: we will be pairing durning the event, so kids will share laptops. This means we might not use your actual laptop and that if you don't have a laptop you can still join and participate.
Adults: Every child must be accompanied by an adult. Adults are welcome to particpate as well, although we ask you to pair with other adults instead of with your kids.
On Wed 19 March there will be a more adult focused session on the techniques:

About the speakers...
Lynn Langit - Big Data Architect and Educator. Former FTE at MSFT (4 years). Awards – SQL Server MVP, Google Cloud Developer Expert, MongoDB Master. Lynn has done production work with SQL Server, MongoDB, AWS and Google databases and more. Lynn has over 150 BigData screencasts on her YouTube channel (SoCalDevGal). In addition to her work with Big Data, she is also the co-founder of a non-profit, ‘Teaching Kids Programming.’
Llewellyn Falco learned to jump horses in the 7th grade while living in France. Back in states, while studying drafting in high school, he started fire eating, sleight of hand magic, and once rode a unicycle 6 miles. After learning to juggle torches, he joined a acrobatics group in college where he specialized on the trampoline and walking a slack rope. He can calculate the cube root of any perfect cube under 1,000,000 in his head, as well as pick a standard lock. He can rollerblade down a flight of stairs, backwards. Later, he has learned to play the doumbek (a type of drum), to accompaniment a belly dancing girlfriend. Llewellyn studied Tai Chi for 2 years, can throw a knife at 20 feet, and a playing card at 50. He has taught swing dancing, and loves to salsa. He is also an accomplished speed chess player. In the last year, he has been scuba diving over 20 times, become a guitar hero, and broke his personal record of paddle balling over 200 times. Llewellyn attributes his success to the large amount of caffeine he has consumed, and enjoys computer programming in his spare time.

"No talks. One paper per month, no obligation to read it."
This month's paper is [Palette Power: Enabling Visual Search through Colors](http://labs.ebay.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/PalettePowerKDD2013.pdf) by Bhardwaj et al. Read it or don't - the goal is just to have something to start conversations. "Did you read the paper?" will do nicely.
Mention @PDXBigData on Twitter with the link to the full paper to suggest papers for future sessions. |

Portland 3D Printing Lab
Roll back

In February 60 Layer Geeks got to see how real Oregon companies team up to create business opportunities using 3D printing. We kicked off with a high-level overview of what 3D printing is and how it's used. Then, we took a look at updates in the industry and talked about how we, as a community, can work together. Next, Rigado Systems, makers of Lumenplay, showed us how 3D printed parts allows them to be responsive to their customers' needs. RapidMade showed us the kinds of products they can make in short order and gave us advice on how to prepare your products to be printed. Lastly, ProtoPasta told us the story of their Kickstarter for desktop 3D printer filament, made with polycarb and carbon fiber.
In March, we'll take a look at the tools, including an in-depth look at 3D scanning and 3d printed prosthetic hands!
Agenda follows:
0600p : 3D printing for Beginners
0630p : Networking over light food/beverages
0730p : Intro
0710p : Show your projects OR
Community Q&A - Shout out a question, get it answered
0750p : Sklyr @ 3Digitize.us talks about the state of the art in 3D scanning, with a LIVE demo!
0810p : Ivan Owen tells us the story of creating prosthetic hands and joining the e.Nable project!
0810p : More Networking!
Note 1: We also had a LARGE number of printers (including a delta!) represented at our Feb meetup. If you'd like to bring a printer, please contact the group organizer, so we can set aside table space.
Note 2: If you have a project or business you'd like to talk about, please contact the group organizer by private message. We're looking for 15-20 minute presentations. Slides aren't necessary, but we have access to a projector and plenty of table space. Good examples would be demonstrations of a new technique/tool, an overview of a service you provide, a unique project you've modeled/printed, etc. If you know a great speaker, please refer them!
Please share this with your network and bring your imagination and enthusiasm. We'd particularly like to get people from bigger corps that are using a lot of 3D printing in their design process (looking at you Nike and Intel :) |

Create a Realistic Funding Plan

Angel investors will not fund an idea - especially not for a first-time entrepreneur. They won't even fund a business plan. Fortunately there are sources of funding available to the early stage entrepreneur. We'll talk about those in this workshop, and walk through a realistic early-stage startup funding strategy. So you'll know right up front what it takes to get funded.

The next PDX Erlang and Elixir Meetup is this Wednesday from 6:30pm to 8:30pm at CrowdCompass. Mexican food from Los Gorditos will be provided. Vegan and gluten free options available. Let me know if there is something specific you'd like from their menu (links at bottom).
There's still room on the agenda if you have something to discuss, otherwise we'll open it up for general discussion. The agenda so far:
Stephen Peters will give a recap of his time at Erlang Factory in San Francisco earlier this month and possibly demo a new monitoring tool for the Erlang VM.
Daniel Hedlund will be giving a brief overview of erlank.mk, rebar and relx and how they fit into the Erlang app development ecosystem. He will also present a bare bones cowboy app and go over each of its components, and how to pull in other dependencies like redis and json libraries. The app will be made available on GitHub so you can clone and experiment after the meeting.
Hope to see everyone there!

OpenStack Northwest User Group Meetup: OpenStack + Ceph = A match made in heaven
Roll back
| description |
You don't get too many second chances in life, but if you missed Ian Colle's presentation in Denver this February, and you happen to be in Portland on March 19, then you're in luck.
Ian is the Director of Engineering at Inktank, the company delivering Inktank Ceph Enterprise. He will be flying over to discuss Ceph integration with OpenStack at a deep technical level, and also for the beer.
Ceph is a fully open source distributed object store, network block device, and file system designed for reliability, performance, and scalability from terabytes to exabytes. Ceph offers a Swift and S3-compatible REST API for seamless data access, a network block device for large images or volumes, and native support for Qemu/KVM, libvirt, CloudStack, and OpenStack which makes it quite a versatile storage platform. Join us for a walkthrough of the Ceph architecture, its current status, how it integrates with OpenStack, and plans for future development.
Prior to Inktank, Ian held positions in Intel’s High Performance Data Division and Whamcloud’s High Performance Computing team. He is an avid trail runner who thinks running up the sides of mountains is an enjoyable way to exercise.
Please RSVP so we can ensure food and drinks are adequate.
See you then. |

You don't get too many second chances in life, but if you missed Ian Colle's presentation in Denver this February, and you happen to be in Portland on March 19, then you're in luck.
Ian is the Director of Engineering at Inktank, the company delivering Inktank Ceph Enterprise. He will be flying over to discuss Ceph integration with OpenStack at a deep technical level, and also for the beer.
Ceph is a fully open source distributed object store, network block device, and file system designed for reliability, performance, and scalability from terabytes to exabytes. Ceph offers a Swift and S3-compatible REST API for seamless data access, a network block device for large images or volumes, and native support for Qemu/KVM, libvirt, CloudStack, and OpenStack which makes it quite a versatile storage platform. Join us for a walkthrough of the Ceph architecture, its current status, how it integrates with OpenStack, and plans for future development.
Prior to Inktank, Ian held positions in Intel’s High Performance Data Division and Whamcloud’s High Performance Computing team. He is an avid trail runner who thinks running up the sides of mountains is an enjoyable way to exercise.
Please RSVP so we can ensure food and drinks are adequate.
See you then. |
