Eva scored a half-off-breakfast thingy, $12 for $25, so by all means be really nice to her for the next week and who knows? you may get a free ride. My own attempts at adding a second Groupon to the fray were foiled by an extremely busy day and an adamant refusal to use Facebook Connect to login. I should have just bitten the bullet and done it (I eventually capitulated to get cheap acupuncture). As always, come prepared to buy your own breakfast and you can dance and sing if you are the beneficiary of coupon goodness in any way. Lots to talk about - IP8, the nascent pdxbreakfast.com, and more... 2010-03-11T11:45:00-08:00 1250458391 996334150 2010-03-11T08:45:00-08:00 2010-03-05T09:39:19-08:00 202391960

This fast-paced half day session will provide the framework, insight and step-by-step methodology needed to most effectively manage a Social Media program and deliver results for customers and the organizations, so come prepared to take copious notes. Because RED CHAIR 'Studio' is a half-day session, participants will have time to return to the office after lunch and immediately begin to apply what they have learned. Developing a program that specifically caters to "roll up your sleeves and get it done" managers wasn't enough; we also wanted to make it financially accessible to departments with limited budgets. What follows is a brief breakdown of what the program will cover: Strategic Planning: How to properly develop, plan and set measurable goals for your social media program or campaign, both in the short term and long term - in a way that accomplishes your department's objectives and satisfies upper management. Management: How to manage the Social Media program from inception to every phase of its evolution. We will go over process integration, monitoring, engagement, community management, customer support, online reputation management internal communications, project management and legal considerations. Measurement and Growth: The final portion of the session will focus on how to properly measure success. This discussion will focus on lining up measurement with your program's specific objectives, choosing the correct tools and metrics for the job, properly reporting successes and failures, and how to use data to ensure the growth of your program. Who should attend: Department managers wishing to learn how to effectively build, grow and manage Social Media programs for their business units. Social Media managers and directors wishing to learn how to more effectively manage and grow sustainable Social Media programs for their clients and/or their own firms. Account-level agency and digital program managers looking to significantly improve their working knowledge of effective Social Media program management. Community managers, IT managers, HR managers, small business owners (less than 10 employees), marketing project managers, product managers, customer service managers, and anyone not at the Executive level wishing to further their practical understanding of Social Media program management. 2010-03-12T13:00:00-08:00 1250458328 2010-03-12T08:00:00-08:00 2010-02-18T09:47:55-08:00 http://www.redchairgroup.com/red-chair-studio/red-chair-studio-portland 202390594

This characteristic led to the development of the Communicating Haskell Processes (CHP) libraries, which support imperative synchronous message-passing in Haskell. The core 'chp' library provides basic message-passing, concurrency and choice, as well as integrated support for tracing. The 'chp-plus' library provides higher-level features such as process composition operators and behaviour combinators. This talk provides an introduction to the two libraries and the programming style they engender -- as well as a brief look at the formal semantics underlying the libraries. 2010-03-15T11:30:00-07:00 1250458415 2010-03-15T10:30:00-07:00 2010-03-10T16:30:27-08:00 http://www.galois.com/blog/2010/03/10/tech-talk-an-introduction-to-communicating-haskell-processes/ 202390439

Professional activities outside of work provide opportunities and benefits for engineers and their employers that are not fully appreciated for their positive impact on careers and contribution to their employer. Involvement in professional activities allows individuals to develop skills and expertise that enables them to leverage their technical skills. Helping organize meetings, with program planning or peer review, chairing committees or being elected to the Board of Directors provides opportunities to learn and develop a robust professional network. Volunteering develops problem solving, team work and leadership skills at a minimal cost. Innovation is enhanced by exposure to new and complementary technologies and professional relationships that would not otherwise occur. John Hagel, noted business writer and management consultant, summarizes the benefits of social capital and social networks: “… the focus of value creation is effective participation in knowledge flows, which are constantly being renewed. Finding ways to connect with people and institutions possessing new knowledge becomes increasingly important… The more your company or country can connect with relevant and diverse sources to create new knowledge, the more it will thrive. And if you don’t, others will.” After the presentation join us for a beer. Speaker: Jim Isaak is recently retired from Southern New Hampshire University. His research focused on how social capital is developed and influenced through interactions in professional activities, including professional societies, standards committees, and on-line communities. Jim is the 2010 IEEE Computer Society President. He is also a member of the Board of Governors of the Society for the Social Implications of Technology and has been a director of the IEEE. His industry experience includes Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), Charles River Data Systems, Data General, Intel, Calma and IBM. He chaired the POSIX/UNIX standards committee for 15 years. He has a BS in Computer Studies and a MSEE in Computer Engineering from Stanford.

Electricity advances developmental factors such as small business development, extended working hours, access to communications, enhanced education levels and rural development. Energy can improve life of millions. In developing countries access to energy remains constrained by factors such as limited access to well adapted affordable technology, fragmented small markets, prohibitive taxes and limited financial resources. On Dec 14th , at the Copenhagen Climate conference the Obama Administration announced a $350 million dollar initiative dubbed “Climate REDI” to promote clean energy technologies in developing countries. Join us on March 17th for a discussion with our expert panel, on what kind of innovations in products, finance, supply and service can ensure reliable & affordable energy to the billions of poor across the world. Our 2 presenters Michael(Kipp) Baratoff, Principal, Equilibrium Capital & Patrick Maloney, Program Director, Lemelson Foundation have been fully immersed in this space, having been engaged with social entrepreneurs over the course of their careers. Lemelson Foundation awarded an energy grant to Selco India for it’s Incubation Center and Innovation Department to develop new products and new business models to solve key problems for energy consumers. The SELCO Solar Light Private Limited (SELCO India) is already an important provider of solar systems and cook stoves in southern India, with products that allow rural families to increase their household income while reducing the environmental and health risks of higher-cost kerosene lamps and inefficient stoves. Our event organizer, TiE Oregon Clean Energy SIG chair, Ravi Sinha, is the Chairman of Choice Solar India Pvt Ltd., company engaged in creative distribution of energy solutions to India's marginalized residents. Bill Campbell, our moderator for the evening is also a Principal at Equlibrium as well as a TiE Oregon Charter Member and Board Member. They will bring an insight into problems, economics, delivery & growth of energy solutions. This event is also a continuation of our theme “Serving the 6 Billion” on which we launched TiE Oregon in 2007. The keynote (watch the video on our website) speaker at the launch was C.K Prahalad, Paul & Ruth McCracken Distinguished University Professor of Corporate Strategy at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business, a globally recognized business consultant, who gave a stirring speech about the Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid. It centers on the proposition that the world's poor can be the engine of the next round of global trade and prosperity and can be a source of innovation. 2010-03-17T21:00:00-07:00 1250458321 2010-03-17T18:00:00-07:00 2010-03-03T10:46:57-08:00 http://oregon.tie.org/TGS/EM/viewevent/viewEventPT?id_event=4225&from_where=chapter_homepage 202391729

Pizza at 6:30, meeting at 7. Talk: "Exploratory Testing: Now In Session" The agile nature of exploration and the ability of testers to rapidly apply their skills and experience make exploratory testing a widely used test approach—especially when time is short. But exploratory testing is often dismissed by project managers who assume that it is not reproducible, measurable, or accountable. If you share these concerns, a solution may lie in a technique called Session-Based Test Management (SBTM), developed by Jon and his brother James specifically to address these problems. In SBTM, testers are assigned areas of a product to explore, and testing is time boxed in "sessions" which have mission statements called “charters” to create a meaningful and countable unit of work. Jon discusses—and you can practice—the skills of exploration and demonstrates a freely available, open source tool to help manage your exploratoration. Speaker Bio: Jon Bach has been in testing for 14 years, 12 of which has been as a manager. His experience includes managing teams at Microsoft, HP and LexisNexis, and is currently a managing consultant for Quardev, Inc. -- a Seattle test lab. He speaks frequently about test management and exploratory testing, and is the co-inventor (with his brother James) of Session-Based Test Management. He’s also written a few articles for testing magazines as well as a listed co-author of a Microsoft Patterns and Practices book on acceptance testing (available for free online). Find him on Facebook, Twitter, or his presentations and articles on http://www.quardev.com, where he also has a blog. 2010-03-17T21:00:00-07:00 1250458366 2010-03-17T18:30:00-07:00 2010-03-06T14:21:13-08:00 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/xpportland/ 202391953

Traditionally, it has been difficult for programmers to take advantage of the multi-core systems with their ever-multiplying number of cores. But that is all about to change with JSR-166y. Targeted for Java 7, scheduled for release in late 2010, JSR-166y adds a lightweight task framework known as ForkJoin (FJ) to the Java platform. Steve Dohrmann will be discussing the fundamentals of parallel Java programming. His talk will include the use of Java threads, an overview of the JSR-166y (ForkJoin) package, and some points on higher-level parallel programming models. If you're a Java developer, you can't afford to miss this opportunity to learn about the future of Java in a parallel world. And developers on other environments will find the overview of parallel application development and solid parallel algorithm fundamentals to be valuable in building systems that scale and provide competitive differentiation for your solutions. Meet the Speaker: Steve Dohrmann, Software Engineer, Intel Since joining Intel in 1994, Steve has worked in a variety of research, advanced development, and product groups within the company. He is currently working in a Java technology group and is focused on data-parallel programming for the Java VM. Intel will be giving away a brand new laptop for a door prize!

US 2009-05-13T16:01:12-07:00 Hot desks + meeting rooms + community = souk. souk's operating hours are M - F 9 am - 5 pm + upon request, tours by appointment only. The souk facility is 5000 square feet exuding a loft-like feel with its exposed brick and HVAC systems, restored original wooden beams, high ceilings and ample natural light. Herman Miller chairs and Design Within Reach pieces round out the open plan appeal. There are NO CUBICLES. There are two, closed conference rooms available, all with natural light, both holding about 10 people. Additionally, upon request, there is a large event space that is available for up to 150. It's used for everything from larger meeting groups to networking events and workshops. The remainder of the space is open plan and accommodates up to 24 hot desks, many of which can be adjusted for those preferring to stand. All hot desks have ergonomic Celle chairs, Herman Miller's "green" line of office seating. http://www.soukllc.com/directions.html info@soukllc.com 202391536 45.525637 Portland -122.676206 97209 Oregon 322 nw 6th ave, suite 200 503.517.6900 2009-06-25T23:48:05-07:00 http://www.soukllc.com/ 3 2010-01-08T15:24:07-08:00 The first 30 hour day--the livestreaming Web-based telethon we put together to raise money for charities in the Portland area--brought in around $7000 for Free Geek, the Oregon Food Bank, and Toys for Tots, a couple of barrels of food, and at least one overflowing barrel of toys. Not to mention generating 30 consecutive hours of entertainment from awesome local artists for more than 70,000 people who tuned in to watch. Not bad for roughly six weeks from concept to completion. Now, we're hard at work on 30 hour day 2. And it promises to be bigger and better than the first. Mark your calendars! We'll see you on July 2, 2010. 2010-07-04T00:00:00-07:00 1250458146 996333958 2010-07-02T18:00:00-07:00 2010-01-08T15:24:07-08:00 http://30hourday.org 202390081
