update Calagator::Event 1250465414 PLUG: Public Speaking is the Greatest Skill You Can Possess Roll back

description The Portland Linux/Unix Group: Portland's monthly, three-track tech conference, celebrating its 20th anniversary this spring! * Who: Brian Rohan and Michael Dexter * What: Public Speaking is the Greatest Skill You Can Possess * Where: PSU, 1930 SW 4th Ave. Room FAB 86-01 (Lower Level) * When: Thursday, February 6th, 2014 at 7pm * Why: The pursuit of technology freedom Brian and Michael are back to teach you everything you ever wanted to know about speaking at an open source from PLUG (hint hint) to OSCON. Brian has years as an experienced Distinguished Toastmaster (beer available at the Lucky Lab NW after the meeting) and Michael has just submitted his paper for the upcoming AsiaBSDCon conference on a topic he had previously known nothing about. Why should you give a talk? * You are guaranteed to have a unique topic, experience and perspective * Audiences are far kinder than you expect (only pros get boo'd!) * Visuals are always optional and are flexible in format * No one was born a public speaker, it's simply a learned skill * There are great resources out there to help you * Most things that go wrong have nothing to do with you (Tsunamis!) * Live demos are... risky, but useful * The LFNW and other CFP's close shortly (hint hint) Highlight from our Advanced Topics talk: (paraphrased) "My mom got more value out of learning to community with Toastmasters than two years of a (VERY impressive school) scholarship." YOU may change careers a dozen times in your life and need a new skill set for each job but will ALWAYS need to express yourself and communicate on behalf of yourself and your team. Let PLUG be that first step in what could be worth more than a (VERY impressive school) scholarship! Brian says: In 2007 I made the switch from being a machinist to a real estate agent, shortly thereafter I was invited to investigate a Toastmasters club, in order to become a better communicator. Through 5 years and over 40 speeches in Toastmasters I reached the highest level of Distinguished Toastmaster. Simply stepping out of my comfort zone has given me the opportunity introduce dignitaries, and MC fund-raising events for worthwhile causes (notably a record breaking Clark County Republican Party Lincoln Day Dinner auction). Currently I am a recognized top 2% leader in AdvoCare International, helping others achieve their physical and financial goals. I enjoy using Linux on a personal level for the freedom that it represents. "You never get rid of public speaking butterflies, you just get them to fly in formation: ~Marv Serhan Michael says: Never in a 1,000 years will I speak in public yet I find myself doing it several times a month in Portland and at conferences around the world. I guarantee I'm no Brian Rohan but I fill rooms and get applause. The secret is finding the right room and just doing it. I will talk about the absolute worst that can happen (rarely what you think it would be), the open source conference community and how to get from submitting a proposal to stepping down from the stage.

create Calagator::Event 1250465635 OpenStack Northwest Users Group Meetup Roll back

description nil You don’t have to choose between Clouds, here in Portland at least! The OpenStack NW team worked with AWS meetup organizers to provide the best value to the Portland Cloud community; we agreed to line both events in close proximity allowing you to head straight to Jama Software South facility at 6:00pm, immediately after attending AWS meetup from 4:00pm. This would make for a very exciting and super rich Wednesday night, why? Because we have Cameron Seader flying over to share the latest in SUSE Cloud then… We’re bringing the latest OpenStack projects directly from Yahoo’s building C in the Silicon Valley as we join the SFBay OpenStack meetup over live two-way video link. And for some fun time, our sponsor ProFocus is giving away a Kindle for the first correct answer of a quiz question from one of the presentations. On the agenda: <b>6:00 - 6:15 Introduction, pizza and beer (RSVP – Please!)</b> <b>6:15 - 7:00 SUSE Cloud-</b> OpenStack Heat provides a framework for predefining a structured service, and allows you to instantiate that service in an automated manner. Walk through the process of creating a Heat template for a multi-tiered web application that will include multiple image templates, custom networking, and volume storage. <b>7:00 - 8:30 SFBay Simulcast – Projects Murano and Mistral</b> One of the fastest growing parts of OpenStack for the last release cycle is orchestration and platform-level capabilities. Different aspects of orchestration are represented by a number of the initiatives. During this session Mirantis engineers will talk about two projects from orchestration area which were initiated by Mirantis - Murano and Mistral. Murano is a project which brings Application Catalog features to OpenStack cloud. Application Catalog provides an integration layer for 3rd party applications to be deployed via self-service UI for OpenStack cloud. The discussion, driven by Alex Tivelkov - a Murano technical lead, will cover Application Catalog use cases and their value for cloud users. Some of the use cases will be illustrated during the live demo followed by roadmap overview and Q&A. As the second part of this meetup Mistral project will be presented. Mistral is a new initiative for workflow as a service implementation announced at the latest OpenStack summit in HK. Workflow as a service provides an ability to execute tasks in a distributed manner defined by simple DSL instead of writing a python code. Mistral provides features like event triggered tasks, scheduled tasks as a part of DSL. Renat Akhmerov - a Mistral technical lead will cover Mistral use cases, architecture overview and live demo for Mistral PoC followed by roadmap discussion and Q&A. At the end of the meetup there will be a general Q&A session about integration between new and existing OpenStack services including Heat, Trove, Murano, Savanna and Mistral. Special thanks to our sponsors SUSE Linux, Jama Software ProFocus. <b><strong>Please RSVP to help us make sure there's enough food & drinks. Hope to see you there.</strong></b> Hope to see you there.

description nil <p>We'll hear advice from two local experts about how to tell stories using visuals as well as how to manage your organization's digital inventory, legal issues around images, and camera/software tips.</p> <p><b>Growing Your Digital Media and Protecting It</b></p> <p>While being the first-ever Executive Communications Manager for a national child welfare nonprofit, Kristy Alberty hit the ground running to learn brand management and to better develop the organization's strategy to use photographs to tell their story. She is now a firm believer in encouraging nonprofit organizations to create and maintain a digital photo library to call their own for communications, development, print, and online usage. </p> <p>Her presentation will cover different facets of this concept: First, why should I care about this, followed by some digital photography basics, sources of photographs, organizing your digital library, how to organize a photo shoot, tips to obtain photos on an ongoing basis, and basic legal issues to remember. </p> <p><b>Visual Storytelling</b></p> <p>Social media is visual media. Research confirms what many Tech4Good folks know from experience: photos are the quickest way to get views, likes, and shares on Facebook. But our supporters' screens are littered with photos from friends, families, and causes they care about. There are 55 million pictures uploaded to Instagram every day! How can we make sure ours stand out? Resource Media pored over cognitive research and interviewed some of the smartest nonprofit and corporate markets we know to compile a list of visual communications best practices. I'll share the top take-aways from our research, and ideas for testing images with your own community. For a sneak peek at what I'll be covering, check out <a href="http://www.visualstorylab.org/">www.visualstorylab.org</a>.</p> <p> </p> <p><b>Presenters</b></p> <p>Born and raised in Oklahoma, <b>Kristy Alberty</b> (BA in News Communication) has been a freelance writer, prepress designer, and recent, was the first Executive Communications Manager for the National Indian Child Welfare Association (NICWA), headquartered in Portland, from 2005 to 2012. She is currently looking for another exciting nonprofit adventure to continue her communications, and brand management skills.</p> <p><br><b>Nicole Lampe</b> has worked in nonprofit communications for over a decade, on issues ranging from education to conservation and public health. She started her career in the days of the fax machine, but is now as likely to pitch a reporter on Twitter as by phone. As head of digital at Resource Media—a nonprofit PR firm that helps good causes win—Nicole's work ranges from hyper local campaigns to international work with UNESCO. </p> <p><br><b><br></b></p> <p><b>Venue Sponsor</b></p> <p><img src="http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/9/f/f/8/600_266260952.jpeg"></p> <p>"At <a href="http://thinkshout.com/">ThinkShout</a>, we are more than the code we write. We may be geeks, but we're geeks with lots of heart and we are committed to producing sustainable, open source solutions for people who are making lasting social change." </p> <p><br><b><br></b></p> <p><b>Agenda</b></p> <p>Networking and refreshments 6pm-6:30pm</p> <p>Presentation 6:30pm-7:45pm</p> <p>Additional Q&A and networking 7:45pm-8pm</p> <p> </p> <p><b>Accessibility</b></p> <p><b>Mobility Access: </b>The main entrance on Glisan opens right into the ThinkShout office and there is one step. However, there's a side entrance on 4th that is wheelchair accessible. If using that entrance, dial 001 on the keypad to be buzzed in.</p> <p><b>Hearing Access: </b>We will not have access to a PA system.</p> <p><b>Sight Access:</b> We will use either a large monitor or a projector for presentations.</p> <p>We want everyone to be able to participate in the PDXTech4Good community and events. Please don't hesitate to let us know what we can do to accommodate your needs.</p> <p><b><br></b></p> <p><b>Parking & Transportation</b></p> <p>There's a large paid parking lot next to ThinkShout on 4th and Glisan as well as another across the street. There's also lots of street parking.</p> <p>ThinkShout is close to the MAX, streetcar, and several bus lines.</p>

description An Introduction to Pure Data DorkbotPDX is happy to offer a free workshop as an introduction to Pure Data (Pd). When: February 23rd, 2014. 1-5pm Where: Flux 412 NW Couch Street, #222 (map) Instructors: Jesse Mejia, Alex Norman, Jason Plumb, Edward Sharp Details: Pure Data (Pd) is a free, open-source, community supported data flow language and coding environment with an emphasis on sound, music, and multimedia. It was originally written by Miller Puckette (also the original author of Max/Max MSP) and runs on Linux, Mac OSX, and Windows. Pd has been used widely in the creation of art -- such as music, sound art, visual art, generative, new-media, and interactive art. Pd interfaces readily with MIDI equipment and many popular microcontrollers. In this 4-hour course, students will learn the basics of Pd and will have fun developing foundational Pd patching skills. A link to the curriculum will be posted here very soon. Beginners are welcome. No prior computer programming or sound programming experience is required! Notes: Students should attempt to install Pd prior to the workshop...but if not, no biggie. We can help with that! Seating is limited to 15 participants. Attendees will respect Flux's code of conduct and will be asked to donate. An Introduction to Pure Data DorkbotPDX is happy to offer a free workshop as an introduction to Pure Data (Pd).

description nil We are a group of makers, hackers, coders, programmers, and technologists that want to contribute to the tech community by providing a place to learn from others. Our meetups are intimate events designed to help create relationships between junior and senior people in various tech fields. Hack The People is looking for both mentees and mentors to attend our events. The events will focus around lightning talks about your pet projects. Lightning talks, you ask? Yes, each participant gets about 2 minutes to talk about anything they're working on, problems they've come across, or even just seedling ideas in their head, with an additional 4 minutes of time for people in the group to offer assistance in the form of new insights, perspectives, solutions, or anything else they can offer(please note that we don't allow soliciting/buy-my-app type of talks). It's like having a whole group of mentors to listen to what you have to say with an aim to help. After the lightning talks round, we will head across the way to Bailey's to have a drink and chat a little less formally. Please be punctual as we start on time and move through each portion with a minimum of dilly-dallying. Here is what you can expect at this meetup: - Refreshments/Pizza - Keynote speaker - Lightning Talks - Drinks/Networking @ Bailiey's This event has a limited number of seats, so don't miss out and make sure to reserve your spot!

It's a good chance to work on your personal projects, learn what your peers are up to (computer-wise), figure out what the best programming language is, and/or say the words "I don't have anything to work on" or "I forgot my laptop". This event is very informal, and there is no specific project we'll be focusing our efforts on. Food and refreshments are served. RSVPing to [email protected] is appreciated, but not required. Come check out Rentrak's new downtown office. Everyone is welcome to join us!
