create Calagator::Event 1250458462 Galois Tech Talk Roll back

description nil Galois is pleased to host two tech talks on Wed., March 24. Visualization and Diversity Information Details: * Presenter: Prof. Ron Metoyer * Date: Wednesday, March 24, 2010 * Time: 10:30am Abstract: The term “diversity’’ is used in many ways in many domains. People are concerned about the diversity of their work force, stock portfolios, student body, and forest insects, just to name a few. In this talk, I will discuss a work-in-progress visualization technique specifically designed to communicate diversity information. I will present the design concerns, resulting visualizations, and a study design for evaluating the method. I will conclude with a discussion of a case-study application to moth species data. Bio: Ronald Metoyer is an Associate Professor in the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Oregon State University. He earned a Ph.D. from the Georgia Institute of Technology where he worked in the Graphics, Visualization and Usability Center with a focus on modeling and visualizing the motion of pedestrians in urban and architectural scenes. Dr. Metoyer currently co-directs the NVIDIA Graphics and Imaging Technologies Lab (GAIT) with his colleagues at OSU. His past research efforts have involved the investigation of techniques for manipulating motion capture data and for facilitating the creation of 3D content by end users with the goal of empowering domain experts to create compelling and interactive content for their domain specific needs. In 2002, he received an NSF CAREER Award for his work in “Understanding the Complexities of Animated Content”. Dr. Metoyer’s most recent research interests fall under the domain of information visualization. ------------------------------ TITLE: TBA Details: * Presenter: Prof. Mike Bailey * Date: Wednesday, March 24, 2010 * Time: 11:00am Abstract: TBA Bio: Mike Bailey is a Professor in Computer Science at Oregon State University.

update Calagator::Event 1250458453 pdxfiber's Reach Portland: Play in the world's largest "telephone game" Roll back

description Portland Attempts World Record to get Google’s attention. World’s longest “Telephone Game” needs only 700 people. A group of citizens are organizing the world’s longest “Telephone Game” as an attempt to get the attention of Google. The Technology giant has put out a Request For Information (RFI) to municipalities who may be interested in partnering with Google to install a 1 gigabyte fiber optic network that will serve 50,000 to 500,000 homes. The RFI has already caused quite a stir among cities large and small across America. In an attempt to gain the favor of the company, one city, Topeka, Kansas decided to change its name to Google for a day. The City of Portland is taking the proposal seriously and will be adopting a resolution Wednesday, March 17th to provide a proposal to the search engine colossus. The project would be a significant undertaking for Google. Estimates are that they would need to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to lay a fiber optic network in most cities, whereas in Portland, City efforts to facilitate it have already tilled the fields for high-speed broadband. The significance of the project is that it would provide speeds of one hundred times greater than is available today in the United States, potentially spurring innovative, revenue generating businesses and jobs in the city that is awarded the prize. A group of citizens in the technology and creative industries clusters have joined in the effort to “Woo the Goog”, since the RFI states that citizen involvement will be a deciding factor in awarding the fiber network. The Game will stretch from Pioneer Courthouse Square, and attempt to cross the Steel Bridge to the steps of the Rose Garden arena. The event will begin at 9am Saturday March 20th, and the record-breaking Telephone game attempt will start at the east side of the Steel Bridge at 9:30, reaching Mayor Sam Adams in Pioneer Courthouse Square at approximately 10:30. All who are interested are encouraged to meet at the corner of NW Couch and Naito Parkway.

address nil 511 NW Broadway Portland, OR 97209
country nil US
description nil The Pacific Northwest College of Art (PNCA) empowers artists and designers to reimagine what art and design can do in the world. This private fine arts and design college, founded in 1909 in Portland, Oregon, offers ten Bachelor of Fine Art (BFA) degrees and six graduate degrees including master of fine arts (MFA) and master of arts (MA) degrees. Dr. Donald Tuski serves as the school's president. PNCA is home to the Center for Contemporary Art & Culture which hosts exhibitions with artists such as James Rosenquist and Cauleen Smith. The college welcomes the community in each month for First Thursday arts celebrations showcasing student work and throughout the year with free public lectures by nationally-recognized visual artists, designers, and scholars. The recently launched Make + Think + Code, a center for art and technology, hosts artists- and technologists-in-residence as well as numerous art-tech community events. At PNCA students learn to better understand the work they make and how it can make an impact in the world. Students hone skills and are introduced to entirely new ways of making. Just as importantly, they learn to think critically about their own work and that of others. PNCA graduates are working artists who show internationally; successful, creative, small-business owners; animators and designers working for top firms such as LAIKA, Nike, Weiden + Kennedy; professional printers working for studios like Gemini G.E.L.; freelance illustrators with high-profile commissions; and commercial photographers. PNCA is an accredited institutional member of both the National Association of Schools of Art and Design (NASAD) and the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU). In addition we are affiliated with the following: Association of Independent Colleges of Art & Design (AICAD) National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities (NAICU) Art Resources Consortium Northwest (ARC NW) Oregon Independent College Association (OICA) Foundations in Art: Theory and Education (FATE)

description Details to come... We're going to just have a casual meeting this month, so we can hang out, talk about whatever project or bit of code has captured your attention of late, and drink beer. We'll be meeting concurrently with the fine folks at the PDX Weekly Hackathon, so there should be plenty of discussion of quite a varied nature. Feel free to come out and hack on things, of course!

create Calagator::Event 1250458448 Secrets to Self-Employed Success | The Formula to Make It Work Roll back

description nil Join us for a free intro to IASECP's Self-Employed Academy's Secrets to Self-Employed Success | The Formula to Make It Work We're going to share with you all some of the secrets that we delve into during our 12-week course. We're going to talk about things like: * How do you tailor your business to fit you, so you can create the lifestyle that you really want * How to tweak your business idea and offerings so that you have more than enough work * How to spread your income out over the Revenue Quadrant so that you can react quickly and decisively to any economic shift - never worry again about not making enough to cover your needs * How do you position and present yourself so that you are the undisputed expert in your field * How to harness the incredible power of technology to build your business without losing your mind Plus we'll talk about some of the fabulous tools and tips that you'll find only here. Not only that, but you'll get to meet a couple of the actual mentors that you can work with to build your own customize business strategy. The Free Agent Formula + IASECP’s Tools, Experience, Guidance = Triumph! “I was immediately impressed by the highly practical nature of the Free Agent Formula. The experience-based wisdom, clear case studies and step-by-step advice demonstrate what works, but perhaps more important, what doesn’t.” Todd Henry Founder and President The Accidental Creative Company Learn the smart way to build a solo-based business. We’ve got the blueprint to turbo-charge your success – The Free Agent Formula. If you’re a consultant, designer, freelancer, copywriter, photographer, entrepreneur – here’s your personal road map to making more money, creating more opportunities and to finally finding the freedom you’re looking for. Small is the new big. Whether you’re still in the starting blocks or your existing business needs fine tuning, you’ll learn how to focus your time, energy, and money. Here’s a statistic: In 1980, 75% of the jobs in the communication and creative services industries were outsourced or “freelance”. By 2000, that number was 99%. That’s a big change. Nearly two decades ago, we saw change in the air. Many of us went through multiple layoffs and began “freelancing” to find stability and a measure of control. No longer was it enough to “get an education, earn your degree, and work hard”. We’re on a mission to help others in our industries struggling with this seismic shift in our economy. Over the past 12 years, we have been through the fire and have emerged as a strong and innovative community. I was thrilled to find the Free Agent Formula! It helps to boil down so many lessons learned. When combined with the experience and mentorship available only through IASECP’s Self-Employed Academy, you’ll find a dynamic package to get your solo-based business ready to not only earn income quickly – but you’ll get on the road to building your own empire! We’ve added our experience, real-live examples and tons of tools and tips, and more. Plus bonuses and extras that you won’t find anywhere else. The Secret to Freelance Business Success | Build Your Own Empire We start with the 6-step formula to create your customized business foundation plus you design the action steps to get you on the road – and then we walk with you down that road. We’ve been down it before. This program is not about the old-style management-heavy business model of the past. It’s about creating the lifestyle that only today’s technology-based solopreneur can develop. We focus on keeping your overhead low so your income can be high. Interested? Join us for an hour webinar on Tuesday, March 30, 2010 at 2:00 PM (Pacific time) and we'll share the beans. Can't make it at that time, that's OK. This event will be recorded so you can listen whenever it works for you. Not only is the event free, but we'd like to offer you a free PowerPoint presentation called Consulting in the New Economy just for joining us. Don't be shy! Bring a friend...No driving involved. We'll show you that not only is this the best time to work for yourself - but you don't have to do it alone!

update Calagator::Event 1250458183 Portland Java User Group: Teaching Girls and Boys to Program Computers Roll back

description This month's topic: Teaching Girls and Boys to Program Computers Why is it that the percentage of women graduating with computer science degrees around 50% in countries like Sweden, China and India, but less than 20% in America? As a "Geekdad" with a daughter, I found this unacceptable, and decided to do something about it... I went back to school... elementary school that is, to teach programming to the kids. My goal was to find an environment and a style that would encourage girls with curiosity to enjoy being controlling computers in creative ways, and in the process, encourage and involve every kid. My talk discusses the journey of coming up with a girl-friendly curriculum for teaching programming that boys wouldn't notice anything different. I then show off some of the new crop of "Integrated Learning Environments", i.e. Alice, E-Toys and Scratch. I finally give an overview of my "Computer Club" and how others can use what I've done to teach others. ---------- Speaker: Howard Abrams My first job in high school was teaching Basic and Logo programming to 8 year old kids; however, I haven't taught since graduating from college. After programming for 25 years (and Java for 12), I'm now intrigue about returning to my roots and working with the next generation. ---------- 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, usually at McMenamin's Market Street Pub at 10th and Market: http://www.mcmenamins.com/328 (but sometimes this changes). http://twitter.com/pjug http://pjug.org/ (join our mailing list, linked from the website!)
