create Calagator::Event 1250457689 Free showing of "The Crash Course" in three parts Sept. 30th, Oct 28th & Nov 18th Roll back

description	nil	→	<p>The Crash Course seeks to help you understand the nature of some extremely <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse"><img width="355" height="444" align="right" src="http://www.thedirt.org/files/u5/TheCC.jpg" alt="" /></a>serious challenges and risks to our economy and your future prosperity. Chris Martenson weaves together a number of seemingly disparate topics into a single story, discussing the Economy, Energy, and the Environment... For it is where these fields overlap and intersect that the greatest story of any generation will get told.</p> <p>Chris Martenson is an author and obsessive financial observer who has made profound changes in his lifestyle because of what he sees coming. He runs a popular website devoted to advancing awareness of the Three“E’s"--the Economy, Energy and the Environment, although most of the focus is on tracking the economy. <br /> <br /> 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. He lets the data tell the story. <br /> <br /> In addition, Chris has a solid business background, with an MBA in Finance from Cornell with ten years experience in corporate finance and strategic consulting, becoming an executive of a Fortune 300 company. <br /> <br /> The main body of Chris' work, The Crash Course, is a dynamic web-based video presentation, bringing together the threads of the “Three E’s,” and explaining why and how the next 20 years will be completely unlike the last 20.</p> <h2>Shown in Three Parts</h2> <p>All 20 sections take 3 hours and 23 minutes to watch in full, with chapters are between 3 and 20 minutes in length.  </p> <p>To allow for plenty of time for discussion we will be showing this DVD in three parts, on the following days. Please note that we will be flexible in how far we get each night, but the dates listed below are not going to change.</p> <h3><a href="http://www.thedirt.org/node/4154">September 30th</a></h3> <blockquote> 1. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-1-three-beliefs">Three Beliefs</a>   (1:46 minutes) <br /> 2. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-2-three-es">The Three "E"s</a>    (1:38 minutes) <br /> 3. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-3-exponential-growth">Exponential Growth</a>    (6:20 minutes) <br /> 4. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-4-compounding-problem">Compounding is the Problem</a>    (3:06 minutes) <br /> 5. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-5-growth-vs-prosperity">Growth vs. Prosperity</a>    (3:40 minutes) <br /> 6. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-6-what-money">What is Money?</a>    (5:55 minutes) <br /> 7. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-7-money-creation">Money Creation</a>    (4:19 minutes) <br /> 8. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-8-fed-money-creation">The Fed - Money Creation</a>    (7:13 minutes) <br /> 9. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-9-brief-history-us-money">A Brief History of US Money</a>    (7:14 minutes) <br /> 10. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-10-inflation">Inflation</a>    (11:48 minutes) <br /> 11. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-11-how-much-trillion">How Much Is A Trillion?</a>    (3:28 minutes) <br /> 12. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-12-debt">Debt</a>    (12:32 minutes) <br /> 13. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-13-national-failure-save">A National Failure To Save</a>    (12:06 minutes)  </blockquote> <h3><a href="http://www.thedirt.org/node/4156">October 28th</a></h3> <blockquote>14. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-14-assets-demographics">Assets & Demographics</a> (13:41 minutes) <br /> 15. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-15-bubbles">Bubbles</a> (14:10 minutes) <br /> 16. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-16-fuzzy-numbers">Fuzzy Numbers</a> (15:52 minutes) <br /> 17a. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-17a-peak-oil">Part A: Peak Oil</a> (17:52 minutes) <br /> 17b. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-17b-energy-budgeting">Part B: Energy Budgeting</a> (12:15 minutes) <br /> 17c. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-17c-energy-and-economy">Part C: Energy And The Economy</a>   (7:05 minutes)<o:p></o:p> </blockquote> <h3><a href="http://www.thedirt.org/node/4157">November 18th</a></h3> <blockquote>18. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-18-environmental-data">Environmental Data</a>  (16:22 minutes) <br /> 19. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-19-future-shock">Future Shock</a>   (8:02 minutes) <br /> 20. <a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse/chapter-20-what-should-i-do">What Should I Do?</a>  (19:48 minutes) </blockquote> <p> </p>

This is a fun and informative couple of days stuffed with opportunities to learn tasty tidbits about the popular open source web site software <a href="http://www.wordpress.org">WordPress</a>. Perhaps you've heard of this WordPress thing? It's a free and mighty powerful content management system that makes hosting your own blog a snap. And with two solid days of <a href="http://www.wordcampportland.org/agenda/">learning such things</a> as how to be your podcast’s dom and not its sub, how to build (and how NOT to build) a WP plugin, and how to make your blog load efficiently, you know it's going to be where all the cool kids are. Tickets have been sold out for weeks (great job <a href="http://twitter.com/ahockley">Aaron</a>, <a href="http://twitter.com/betsywhim">Betsy</a> and <a href="http://twitter.com/dalechumbley">Dale</a>!!) but if you were lucky enough to get your name on the <a href="http://www.wordcampportland.org/attendees/">attendees list</a> I congratulate you on your good fortune! Last year I didn't get around to buying my WordCamp ticket before it was too late, and it was torturous seeing my twitter stream inundated with remarks of camp joviality, WordPress "Ah-ha!" moments, and links to flickr images of the smiling faces of my fellow bloggers. (OK, fine. I'll admit it. I simmered in silent resentment at some of the more active tweeters at last year's WordCamp Portland. But all is forgiven now. Mostly.) Whether or not you've got yourself a ticket, please join Beer and Blog in extending a warm welcome to several WordPress speakers (and many attendees) for beers and conversation the day before the camp starting bell rings. We'll be at the Green Dragon. I'll be there, too, trying not to rub salt in the wounds of the ticketless. I feel your pain...and I'll be thinking about the pain Ill be inflicting while I drown my twitter stream in bragging, gleefull tweets with the excessive use of the #<a href="http://twitter.com/#search?q=wcpdx">wcpdx</a> tag. You're welcome.

description	nil	→	--Placeholder Description. More details soon.-- On September 25th, iPhone users will finally have access to MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) allowing users to send and receive photos, video, and audio files. Often overlooked in the United States, SMS and MMS huge businesses. 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. 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? We'll explore the opportunities and challenges associated with SMS, MMS and short codes. Please RSVP.

Depending on the interests of those who show, those of us who went may reprise parts of the talks we gave that worked, sections of other peoples' sessions in which we learned something cool, or quick info-dumps about new thoughts expressed in hallway conversations. Certainly, we'll spur conversations - this won't be a 90-minute talking head. Topcis could include testing (end-to-end and otherwise), real options (and feature pricing), kanban planning, metrics, or really just about anything.
