description nil Hello peoples, it’s PAGDIG time again! The next meeting will be this Thursday February 28th at 7:30pm and will be held at the p:ear space located at 338 NW 6th Avenue. Our old friends free pizza and beverages will be there too. There will be an initial short discussion session followed by a chance for everyone to share what they are personally working on and interested in. This month’s discussion topic: The One Murky Console Future The major consoles and dedicated handhelds were once considered the premier arena to experience video games in, but the landscape has changed significantly in recent months as more information about the near future has come to light. The market has changed, the players have changed, the economics have changed, and there seems to be a coming storm of balkanization on the horizon where the line between pc, console, and mobile devices blur. Steambox, Android-based consoles, Post-Next Gen, and yet-unknown players loom. Let’s all put our heads together and try to make heads or tails of what the future may actually be. See ya all there!

description nil Agile Portfolio Management – From Vision to Backlog The enterprise is going to invest in a new product or service: it’s on the strategic plan, senior management is energized and the funding has been promised… But what happens next? How do you get from vision to value? How do you drill down from a high level mission statement or market opportunity to the right user stories and how do you manage resource allocation with competing projects? The goal of this session is to explore this critical transition and it’s implication for portfolio management. We are pleased to welcome three panelists to help us answer these questions. Panel Members: Jamie Swails, Manager Network Data Operations, Portland General Electric Pat Pesetti, Sr. Director Engineering, Tripwire Adam Light, Management Consultant, SoTech Advisors Meeting will start at 7:45 AM until 8:55 in the Nolan Ryan Building on the Nike Campus

description nil HiMSS Oregon http://www.himss-oregon.org/ welcomes – J.D. Kleinke a pioneering health care information entrepreneur, medical economist, author, policy expert, and business strategist. WHEN: Thursday, March 14th, 2013 from 5:00pm-8:30pm 5:00-6:00 – Registration and Networking 6:00-7:30 – Presentation** 7:30-8:30 – Networking Reception WHERE: The Nines Hotel, 525 SW Morrison, Portland, Oregon 97204 DETAILS: What does the actual health reform plan look like, what happens when 30 million new people enter the “system” as we know it, and what will it all mean for your organization? “Obamacare” has survived the Supreme Court, but the health reform law itself may be overshadowed by larger shifts in market power - and continuing government budget crises, as lawmakers target Medicare and Medicaid as sources of major savings. This session provides a critical overview of where health care stands today; the latest on spending trends and market dynamics; and how the health reform plan will play out for all major stakeholders, including providers, payers, employers, patients and consumers. This session examines the concurrent effects of the reform plan, health insurance market upheavals, increasing patient economic empowerment, and emerging information technologies on today’s health care organization. And it lays out a practical framework and set of critical success factors for your organization going forward, as health care faces the greatest challenges and changes in our lifetimes. J.D.Kleinke has been instrumental in the creation of four health care information organizations, most notably HealthGrades. He has helped hospital systems, insurers and physician groups prepare for medical computerization and health reform; provided business, product and technology strategy services to new and established health care companies; and sat on the Boards of several public and privately held health information companies. In 2012, he was a Resident Fellow of the American Enterprise Institute. Mr. Kleinke has authored three books on the U.S. health care system, Bleeding Edge: The Business of Health Care in the New Century and Oxymorons: The Myth of a U.S. Health Care System, and Catching Babies (2011). His work has appeared in The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Barron’s, Health Affairs, JAMA, the British Medical Journal, Modern Healthcare, Managed Healthcare, Forbes, and numerous other publications. Since his earliest writings on health policy and market dynamics in The Wall Street Journal in the early 1990s, Mr. Kleinke has long been known as a forceful, non-partisan advocate for an evidence-driven, computerized, patient-centric health care system. **This program has been submitted for review and approval of continuing education (CE) hours for use in fulfilling the continuing education requirements of the Certified Professional in Healthcare Information and Management Systems (CPHMS) Registration is now open for the conference. https://secure100.telusys.net/gregistration-bin/display2_preview?&ctid=1696121847441156&rfid=9659143976368037&tmid=136

description nil http://www.joomlapdx.com/events/presentations/33-march-2013-joomla-open-house We know... You're thinking "OMG, a Joomla Open House!!!!! ... Errrr, wait a minute, what is a Joomla Open House, exactly?" Great question. In short, it's a gathering of (1) Joomla fanatics, (2) Joomla newbies, (3) Joomla-curious, and (4) others who maybe aren't totally "in love" with Joomla, but who might not mind fooling around a little bit with Joomla if there's beer involved, if you know what we mean. (Okay, actually, we don't even know what we mean by that one.) What we were thinking was: If you've got a web site and are having some technical difficulties, then come to our open house, bring (1) any Joomla, web development, technical, or philosophical questions you like, no matter how easy or tough they are, (2) your laptops if you want to do some work right then and there (or, we may also project your site up onto the wall and work on it in front of others, if that's cool with you), and (3) your admin usernames/passwords, of course, if you want us to be able to look at your Joomla issues. And, if you have a "service dog," bring him or her along, too -- because, remember, here in Portland, no one ever asks you to verify whether your pooch is or isn't working. Anyway, your humble Joomla in-house experts will then roll up our sleeves and do the best we can to either fix your issue or at least point you in the right direction. Types of tech difficulties: Actually, we're fairly open-minded here... Bring us any web-development challenge you're having and we're happy to talk about it -- even it it's not 100% Joomla-related. For example, maybe you're having trouble using CSS, or you're facing a user experience challenge, or you don't understand how MySQL works, or you need a little bit of PHP wizardry. Bring it on. We're not saying we'll actually solve your issue right then and there, but we're certain that we're geeky enough to probably give you way too many vague answers and contradictory directions. (On second thought, maybe don't come. ... No, we're kidding; DO come, okay?) Please join us! -= The Skinny =- WHAT? Joomla! Open! House! WHEN? March 14th, 2013 -- 5:45 p.m. to 8-ish / maybe 8:30 / or, like, whenever. WHERE? At Backstage (3702 SE Hawthorne -- just behind the Bagdad Theater in SE PDX). HOW? Oh, you mean how much? It's FREE!! WHY? Because Joomla rocks and all other CMSs are laughably inferior.
