PRESENTATIONS at 7pm
Dana Scheider: How and Why to Love Cucumber
Cucumber is a powerful and enjoyable tool to use when it is incorporated effectively into your test suite. This talk explains what Cucumber and the rich ecosystem surrounding it have to offer, and why it isn't really as clunky or awkward as a lot of developers think.
Tim Krajcar - kenny_g.rb: Making Ruby Write Smooth Jazz
For too long, computers have been shut out of the red-hot music-to-listen-to-while-relaxing-in-the-bathtub genre. Today, that all changes. Our smooth-jazz-as-a-service startup is primed to disrupt this stale industry. In this talk we'll introduce the basic protocols of digital music and take a whirlwind tour of musical harmonic theory. We'll survey some Ruby tools that make noise and we'll dig deep into using Ruby to generate beautiful piano music with audience-selected chords. It will all culminate in a showdown between man and machine to decide the fate of the musical universe as our program battles a real live musician.
Lightning Talks ⚡
There will be a whiteboard to sign up on arrival (first come first serve).
After presentations we'll have more socializing time.
Thanks to New Relic for providing the venue and beer, pizza & snacks this month!
ARRIVING BY BIKE? Cyclists are welcome to park their bikes in the New Relic office. Bikes are not allowed in the building lobby, however, and must use the freight elevator. To get your bike up to the 29th floor, enter the building's parking lot by going down the ramp at 5th and Pine. Go past the booth -- no need to pick up a ticket -- and turn right. Go straight until you almost run into the elevator lobby, then go right again. On the back side of the elevator block you'll see a beat up pair of double doors marked "freight elevator." You can get up by buzzing in with the intercom, and saying you're here for New Relic. Ride on up to the 29th floor, you'll easily find the bike parking.
ABOUT THE GROUP: The Portland Ruby Brigade, also known as pdxruby and pdx.rb, is a user group for Ruby programmers in the Portland, Oregon area. The group welcomes all programmers interested in the language and its implementations, tools, libraries and frameworks, such as Ruby on Rails. The group has been meeting since August 2002 for presentations, demos and discussions. Every month 35-75 people come together to share their knowledge, projects and enthusiasm for Ruby. If you'd like to present or have a topic you'd like discussed, please post to the mailing list. The group usually meets on the first Tuesday of the month, "Ruby Tuesday" -- see you there!
Demolicious Portland
– Empirical Theater at OMSI
The last Demolicious of 2015 is October 6. Doors open 6:00, Demos start 7:00.
Portlanders in web and mobile tech are creating cool new apps, services and companies. But we aren't sharing them nearly enough. Demolicious shines a well-deserved spotlight on some of the best work. Previous presenters have gone on to raise money from PIE, the Portland Seed Fund and other investors.
MBrace, .NET, and F# by Alena Dzenisenka
Intel Hawthorn Farms 3 (HF3) Campus
The talk is about F#, MBrace and Azure as uber-innovative open source tools for distributed programming, cloud computing and big data inspired by functional paradigm and wonders of monads.
I will describe computation expressions or monadic computations, which is the unique F# feature that makes it possible to introduce language integrated domain specific language to control the custom flow, side effects, ambiguous unpredictable behavior and shows absolutely innovative usage of F# language.
You'll see the open-source MBrace framework built on the base of F# computation expressions as a distributed computational framework engine for cloud computing and performing highly loaded jobs on big data, executing in non-blocking way, managing the state across the cluster of same-network nodes and making all that stuff easy for the software engineer. I will give you a tour through MBrace framework constructions, its architectural design and practical implementation model and demonstrate the full solution potential with Azure infrastructural services and open source Brisk Engine.
As a result, you'll see the undeniable advantages of both individual technologies: F#, MBrace, Azure and their combination in solving complex and frequently used tasks, like highly scalable data-intensive computations, processing of huge amounts of distributed data in cloud environment.
Networking Night @ Quick Left: Advanced Negotiation Practices
– Quick Left
For our upcoming Networking Night at Quick Left, we're switching things up and featuring a talk on advanced networking techniques by Karen O'Keefe. This is a very important topic that each of us will face throughout our careers, and we're very lucky to have Karen joining us to impart her knowledge and experience.
6:00-6:30 - Check-in + Networking
When we hear the word 'negotiation,' most of us think about deal-making, buying and selling on behalf of a company, legal settlements, union/management contract negotiations, and mergers and acquisitions. In these cases, the negotiators follow a formal process to achieve their successes.
While important, not everyone is involved in buying and selling in this sense. Many of us are navigating workplace issues on our way to becoming respected professionals and leaders. Examples of our work conversations revolve around getting resources to do our job, priority for our projects, for getting new opportunities, support for our ideas, for advancement, to hammer out budget agreements, a change in title, or a change in work schedule. Negotiating skill is critical to accomplishing these goals. Today, we will learn how to apply a deal-maker's formal negotiation process to our work conversations in order to achieve our goals, to bring professional happiness and to develop as leaders in our organizations.
Karen O'Keefe is the founder of Advanced Negotiation Strategies, a training and consulting firm dedicated to helping professionals and business owners achieve breakthrough results by building personal and company-wide negotiation strength. She works with business owners and their teams to develop overall negotiation strategy, to prepare and plan for negotiations, and to build executives' and managers' negotiation skills through training.
Prior to launching her own firm, Karen enjoyed a successful 25-year career with several large manufacturing firms, where she held operations and financial responsibility for performance in the supply chain disciplines. She negotiated multi-million dollar logistics contracts and designed and managed service programs to support the flow of goods from suppliers through to the firms' customers.
Quick Left Inc. is a leading provider of innovative software development services and tools with offices in Boulder, Denver, Portland and San Francisco.

– DeskHub
Come to ChickTech's Scrum Workshop to get a refresher or an introduction to the world of Scrum. For two Wednesday evenings in a row, you will go through the core aspects of the Scrum Framework. This includes why Scrum works, the key players on each Scrum team, and how product development occurs within Scrum.
Registration for this event includes both workshop sessions. You can register for the event via Eventbrite.
Scrum is an agile way to manage a project, usually software development. Agile software development with Scrum is often perceived as a methodology; but rather than viewing Scrum as methodology, think of it as a framework for managing a process. -Mountain Goat Software
The Instructor: Austin Richter, Scrum Master Austin, a Certified Scrum Master, has been working within the Scrum Framework for two years. Before that he worked as Project Coordinator on a team that was transitioning from a Waterfall approach to Scrum.
Session 1, September 30th: Introduction to Scrum and Building a Backlog The first session will offer an overview/refresher of the Scrum Framework. In this workshop we will explore the differences betwen a Waterfall approach and the Scrum Framework. This will highlight the importance of feedback to a team. We will demonstrate these concepts by constructing a bridge and building backlogs. During the building a backlog activity we will explore the three roles on the Scrum Team.
Session 2, October 7th: Sprint Simulation In this workshop you will build something for a customer using the Scrum process. Through this exercise you will go through each step of the Scrum process and produce the necessary artifacts to be successful in a given Sprint. From building a task board to demonstrating your product to the stakeholders, you will be immersed into the scrum process during the Sprint Simulation.
By the end of this workshop series you'll have a comprehensive understanding of Scrum.
Part of ChickTech's mission is to retain women in technology. We intend for this event to build community and add skills to resumes. We encourage anyone who wants to practice the Scrum workflow to register for this event!
Dates: September 30th and October 7th
Time: Doors open at 5:30pm and close around 8:30pm. The sessions will run 6-8pm
Location: DeskHub 334 NW 11th Ave Portland, OR 97209

PDXRust Monthly Meeting
– Mozilla
Are you a Rust expert? Have you played with Rust a bit and told yourself you really should write more code in it, but never made the time? Do you just like learning about cool new programming languages? If any of these apply to you, come to the PDXRust meetup to learn more and meet others with similar interests!
This meetup occurs on the first Wednesday of every month, from 6-8pm.
October's meeting will be at Mozilla's Portland space.
What will happen at the meetup? Good question! That's largely up to attendees!
We start with 30-50 minutes of lightning talks from anyone who:
• Has built something in Rust that they want to share,
• Wants to build something in Rust and is seeking feedback and collaborators, or
• Has learned something cool about Rust that they think would be useful to others.
After the lightning talks, we have about an hour of hack time so you can sit down and work on your Rust project in a room full of others who enjoy the language.
Join us in #pdxrust on irc.freenode.net (http://webchat.freenode.net/) with any feedback about what you'd like to see!
Remember that Rust's Code of Conduct applies to this event.
Parking near the building can be scarce. The Mozilla office is close to the 11th&Couch stop and 10th&Couch stop on the NS streetcar line, and within walking distance of several bus lines. Covered bike parking is available in the courtyard that you cross to get to Mozilla's building, across from the Peet's Coffee and Tea seating area.
The building is mostly wheelchair-accessible, in that there are no unavoidable stairs and the outside door has an automatic opening switch. Restroom doors on the 3rd floor and Mozilla office door are not automatic.
Food is not yet planned for the event. If your company would like to sponsor food for the meeting, let edunham know (email@example.com, or IRC).
Ruby Book Club
– Renewable Funding
Reading through technical books in a group is a great way to learn. You can stay motivated by reading together; better apply what you are reading by actively communicating it, as well as hearing others perspectives that will help you better understand the book. Even if you're a more experienced developer it's a great way to keep your skill sharp and share your wisdom and experience. If none of that is convincing just come and have fun with fellow ruby developers!
We are starting a new book Working With Ruby Threads by Jesse Storimer. We will be discussing chapters 10-14 ('Signaling Threads with Condition Variables' - 'Thread Safety in Rails').
Please come having read the chapters and ready to discuss it.
Pizza will be provided!
Book Summary
Threading and concurrency are hot topics in the Ruby community. Want to join the conversation?
You've probably heard people around you talking mutexes, race conditions, or the GIL. Do you wonder what the heck they're talking about?
This book is a gentle introduction to these concepts and will give you the knowledge you need to become your teams resident concurrency expert.

Samuel Hulick
Growing Your User Base with Better Onboarding
Frustration drives people to sign up for products in hopes of improving their lives. The space between the intolerable "before" and the ideal "after" is your project's "improvement trajectory." And once this is defined, it's easier to identify key moments in the customer journey and match them to design patterns.
Samuel shares strategies that help you stop hemorrhaging signups. You'll learn to create quality onboarding experiences that target your users' frustrations and move them from A to B in their lives, instead of just A to B in your app.
About Samuel
Samuel Hulick runs UserOnboard.com and is the author of The Elements of User Onboarding. He's combined UX savvy and a cat-like curiosity for measuring UX impact to become an expert in onboarding. His approach is shaped by over a decade of web experience, theories taken from behavioral psychology, cognitive development, video game design, and even filmmaking.

This month, we are excited to welcome Scott Poole for a talk on how writing a poem is similar to QA. You have to anticipate the pitfalls an audience and a user might fall into. To illustrate this, Scott will read several humorous poems that reflect on this QA type experience. He will discuss about how both disciplines have influenced each other and the benefits gained. Scott is also one of the keynote speakers for the PNSQC's October events and will be tailoring his presentation specifically for SQAUG!
About our speaker: Scott Poole is most well known as the "House Poet" on the weekly Live Wire! public radio variety show, taped in Portland and broadcast nationally by Public Radio International. However, he is also a software developer. Currently, he's the Senior Web Developer for Columbia United Providers in Vancouver, WA. He's been writing code for 9 years and poetry for 25.

It Takes Two to Make a Thing Go Right — RefreshPDX
– Vadio
21 October 2015 — Doors at 6pm, Talk at 6:15pm
Our Topic
With this new surge of bootcamp graduates and career changers gone tech, we've found ourselves with an interesting conundrum - there is so much talent out there, but these new candidates are "just too green." Employers are often concerned about the costs of on-boarding junior developers. Meanwhile, knowledgable, enthusiastic, and bright junior candidates are chomping at the bit, waiting for their opportunity to be recognized for their unique talents.
This talk will explore pieces to the puzzle that will help transform this new influx of juniors from "green" to "lean, mean, coding machines," consequently making them invaluable members of your team. However, this can only be accomplished if both parties are equally invested in the process.
Our speaker, Amy Vaillancourt-Sals
A professional-musician-turned-developer, Amy graduated from Epicodus (a Portland-based programming bootcamp) and landed a job at ThinkShout where she builds creative web solutions for non-profit organizations. Previous work includes being a community relations specialist for the online music tech companies, Discogs and Bandcamp. When she's not coding, or actively striving to make the world a better place, she can be found swinging from a high-flying trapeze, or kiteboarding down the Columbia river.

Aimed at agile coaches, manager and technical managers, it provides guidelines, stories and other tools to help enable teams to implement agile in their environment.
Culture changes, patterns and anti-patterns are covered, giving a holistic approach to helping a delivery team reach their potential.

We are inviting all of our past presenters and the community of over 500 Portland entrepreneurs to celebrate our past year and look forward to the new year to come.
Here is just a short list of the great companies we are pulling together:

Reactive-Interactive Approaches to Visualization of F# jobs
Join Alena Dzenisenka as she presents "Reactive-Interactive Approaches to Visualization of F# jobs"
This talk will show lightweight approaches for web based visualization of server side computations for data science jobs written in F#. These jobs you'd often launch some analytic algorithms on input data and the algorithms may run either on a single local server or be distributed across the cloud, clusters or other locations. There can be different data sources, different places or locations where algorithms are being performed, and various kinds of jobs that produce the updated overall result each time when data changes, updates or new data comes. This talk will cover these concepts and ideas.
An example we can use is with MBrace or other cloud computing framework for performing jobs. If updates are frequent and it's important to keep an eye on these metrics, having an interactive visualization for the results is important.
During the talk we will take a number of jobs, go through the options we have and see the examples of how to use and combine F#, SignalR web sockets and JS together for visualization of various computing job results to display them in a beautiful web interactive and flexible way.

A Skeptic's Guide to Branding
– Idealist
17 February 2016 — 6 to 7pm
Our Topic
There are few things given more skepticism by the geeks of the world than marketing. Indeed, we like to see ourselves as above the buzzwords and cheesy stock photographs, safe in a world where the empirically best solution is the one that will win out.
But there's a problem. Marketing, and especially branding, is critical to the geek's career. Indeed, geeks from John Gruber to Jeff Atwood have become big names in programming, and it's not by accident- they know how to make and expose a great, genuine professional identity. Projects turn from hobbyist hacks to enterprise concerns thanks to their clear, strong branding. For the successful geek, branding is essential, but we can be just too skeptical to take advantage.
Well, no longer. I've trudged through the marketing landscape and found the bits that anyone can be okay with applying. I'll go through finding an authentic identity for yourself or your next project, so you can put together an appealing image without having to lie through your teeth. And I'll back it up not with lofty promises, but with a skeptic's favorite thing: science.
Our speaker, Zoe Landon
Zoe Landon has been messing with computers since childhood and making them work more or less correctly for the last 8 years. She has a Software Engineering degree mostly used for front-end web development, and a Creative Writing minor mostly used for confusing people. Zoe's many entrepreneurial efforts have resulted in an interview with Sir Christopher Lee, vulgarities from a British rock band, and other minor successes.
She can often be found partaking in trivia and wearing a silly hat.

please see this similar question which has good answer as well: How can I know which ViewController is active?

Mayor Bloomberg on Iris Weinshall
(Andrea Bernstein, Transportation Nation) New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg made his first public remarks on his former Transportation Commissioner, Iris Weinshall, today, in answer to a question about whether her opposition to the Prospect Park Bike lane is about defending her tenure as Transpo Commissioner.
Bloomberg said "I've known Iris for twelve years she was a commissioner in our administration for eight. She did a very good job. I was sorry she chose to leave, I tried to convince her to stay. I read about her position on bike lanes I think I'm probably on the other side of it. It's probably not fair to ascribe motives to Iris for trying to stop a bicycle lane other than she doesn't think there should be a bicycle lane there."
His comments came at a question-and-answer session after a press conference announcing New Yorkers can now pay parking tickets online.

Prince Fielder Shows His Love For Detroit
June 7, 2013 11:04 AM
By: Ashley Dunkak
Detroit Tigers' slugger Prince Fielder has his eyes on the postseason, at least according to his recent commercial. The MLB advertisement flashes between historic photos of Detroit and Fielder highlights as the player talks about the factors that motivate him. It's a compilation of images that should excite Tigers fans, who watched Detroit go to the World Series in 2012 and have hopes of a return to the Fall Classic this year.

USI Coastal Insurance splits with Louisiana All-Stars
Published: Tuesday, May 29, 2001 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, May 28, 2001 at 11:00 p.m.
USI Coastal Insurance split a doubleheader with the Louisiana All-Stars on Sunday in Houma.
Coastal, which is a Vandebilt Catholic High School-based team, won the first game, 6-3.
In the second game, the All-Stars posted an 11-3 win.
The Louisiana All-stars (1-1) scored first in the top of the second inning. Starting pitcher Risley St. Germain singled with two outs and nobody on base. Coyt Nicholson came in as a courtesy runner for St. Germain. Adam Bergeaux plated the game's first run with a double.
USI Coastal (4-3) answered back with two runs on two hits.
Jason Kearnes earned a free trip to first base with a walk. Catcher Zack Koster singled to advance Kearnes. Nick Rau came in to courtesy run for Koster and both Kearns and Rau moved up on a wild pitch.
Jeff Rau's two-run single put Coastal on top, 2-1.
"We played an errorless game against a good swinging team," said USI Coastal Insurance coach Ed Daigle.
In the top of the third, the All-Stars scored two runs. Dutchie Blanton's two-out single started things. Ryan Frith doubled, scoring Blanton.
Joe Hulett singled to drive home Frith with the go-ahead run, 3-2.
In the bottom of the fourth, USI Coastal tied the game thanks to two hits and an error. Corey Giroir reached on an All-Star miscue and would later score on a ground out by Koster to tie the score at 3-3.
In the bottom of the fifth, USI Coastal added to its lead.
Brent Oubre started things by reaching on an error. Drew Himel, who was celebrating his 18th birthday, launched a two-run home run.
"Drew told me he was going to be late and I wanted him to have at least one at-bat," Daigle said.
In the bottom of the sixth, USI Coastal extended its lead when Kearnes singled and came around to score on two wild pitches.
The run made the score 6-3.
The All-Stars jumped on the board with three runs in the first.
Tug Hulett doubled and scored on a sacrifice fly by Frith. After a Joe Hulett single plated another run, Justin Perrone's triple gave the visitors a 3-0 lead.
"We started swinging the bat more and were mentally set in the second game. I thought we were kind of timid in the first game," said All-Stars coach Chris Counts.
In the bottom of the first, USI Coastal managed to get a run as Kearnes singled and was driven in by Kris Dagenhardt.
In the top of the second, the All-Stars opened up their lead to 8-1.
"Walks and errors cost us this game. Those are leads you can't come back from. We did notice some things that we need to work on," said USI Coastal assistant coach Butch Theriot.
USI Coastal managed to score a run in the fifth when Giroir plated Jonathan White with a double.
White reached earlier in the inning on a single. The run made the score 11-2.
The final run of the game came when Chet Buxton singled and scored on a Nick Rau groundout.

Demo Policy
If you want to send us demos, please go ahead. We like to hear new sounds. Especially, if they are truly new. We cannot promise a response because of the volume of emails we get! You shouldn't place much importance on our opinions anyway; our opinion of your music shouldn't matter nearly as much as your own. If we like something enough to release it, you'll definitely hear back from us.
It almost never happens that we sign artists because of a demo alone. We advice you to play a ton of shows and build a fan base on your own: We need to know you're able to do that while making great music before we'd consider offering a record deal anyways. Good luck!
Please submit demos to email@example.com We ONLY accept streaming links (Soundcloud for instance). So please do not email mp3, wav, dropbox-invitation etc. Thanks for understanding
PR Services
We offer print, online, radio & TV promotion in Denmark to music projects we like - projects are usually records or festivals. We're also part of a Pan-scandinavian project called Nordic Waves that offers promotion in both Denmark, Norway & Sweden. Contact us on firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.
