Forget everything your teachers taught you in school and listen close: it's not about knowing how to diagram a sentence or tell the difference between elusion, illusion and allusion. Writing well is about getting ideas across in a way that makes people want to keep reading, and more importantly, not beat you about the head with your own work. I'll be giving simple tips for writing effective prose and not getting bogged down in trying to fit some paradigm of "good writing."]]>

Today, most broadband services are controlled by large corporations with large, visible advertising campaigns. Those same large corporations have mixed motives, that don't necessarily align with their customers. Furthermore, they are decreasing your options and increasing control of how you can use your internet connections. Newsflash! Low-cost high-capacity bandwidth is only a few miles away from your house or business, and it is high time we have neutral and very high-speed interconnection with those options. Yes, it won't be cheap to build the infrastructure, about a half-billion bucks for Portland. But whoever builds it, we'll pay for it. I'd just like for us to own it after we've paid for it. I'd also like to be able to *use* it after we've paid for it. We have lots of precedents for publicly owned infrastructure: water, sewer, streets, the Bonneville Power Administration. Break the chains of control! Own your future! Demand neutrally-operated super-fast last-mile broadband infrastructure.]]>

There are 53,644,737,765,488,792,839,237,440,000 possible deals in contract bridge. If that's not enough to get your coder brain racing, consider this: bridge is a universal language (with regional dialects!), creates conversation, and is one of the deepest things you can do with a deck of cards. Naturally recession-proof, bridge teaches logic, improves memory, and involves snacks. And despite what you may have heard, the basics are easy. One-minute-four-slides easy.

I have made lots of omelettes. Like maybe over 1,000. I make them for friends in small groups and I've made them in large groups - the most being 88 in one setting. I've run crews of 8 making omelettes. I know my omelettes. So I thought it would be fun to share this knowledge in a humorous presentation where I would share some tricks I've learned. I would show omelettes that worked - my special is a seafood omelette - and perhaps those that did not. So it could be fun and I probably would not embarrass myself, the organizers or the sponsors too much. Maybe not.]]>

Did you know there are more reasons to take the bus besides that warm feeling you get by considering yourself more environmentally-conscious than the next person? You don't have to buy a magazine to see the latest fashion do's and don'ts, or the trends in accessories. You could find your new favorite song by overhearing it blasting out of someone's headphones. If you're lucky and become a regular, you may develop a series of bus crushes. Or, perhaps you want to see some of the people who take "Keep Portland Weird" a bit too literally. All you need is $2, a cell or iPhone (to check arrival times), and a sense of adventure. I'll present some of the experiences I've had while on a TriMet bus as well as offer tips for making a trip on public transit less mundane.]]>

Music! Intrigue!: Why You Should Be Riding the Bus igniteportland Did you know there are more reasons to take the bus besides that warm feeling you get by considering yourself more environmentally-conscious than the next person? You don't have to buy a magazine to see the latest fashion do's and don'ts, or the trends in accessories. You could find your new favorite song by overhearing it blasting out of someone's headphones. If you're lucky and become a regular, you may develop a series of bus crushes. Or, perhaps you want to see some of the people who take "Keep Portland Weird" a bit too literally. All you need is $2, a cell or iPhone (to check arrival times), and a sense of adventure. I'll present some of the experiences I've had while on a TriMet bus as well as offer tips for making a trip on public transit less mundane. <img style="border:1px solid #C3E6D8;float:right;" alt="" src="https://cdn.slidesharecdn.com/ss_thumbnails/09_IP5_angel_venable-090221110313-phpapp02-thumbnail.jpg?width=120&height=120&fit=bounds" /> Did you know there are more reasons to take the bus besides that warm feeling you get by considering yourself more environmentally-conscious than the next person?

Android is a Linux-based open source operating system by Google that can be used to power smart phones like TMobile's G1. It's a very open platform, and easy to develop software for. Isaac will give an overview of the development environment and highlight some key features of the operating system with a focus on what makes the open nature of the Android so powerful. Isaac will illustrate these topics by giving a brief overview of the encryption system he and others have been building into Android: http://code.google.com/p/openintents/wiki/CryptoIntents For programmers, this talk will aim to be an effective introduction to Android so that you can go home, install the development tools, and start hacking even if you don't have a phone. For non-programmers, this talk will aim to give you a taste of how open-source principles will soon affect a cell phone near you.]]>

This talk is all about DNA and you'd better cope with it. Science isn't the art of making things up so that math and biology classes are justified. Rather science is all about observing reproducible phenomena in the world. DNA is something we now know lots about. You'd be surprised how knowing a little bit more about DNA explains all sorts of things you see everyday. For example, can you really clone yourself or what are the odds that you'll get convicted for a crime your evil twin committed? Perhaps more practically, why do dog lovers pay for pet DNA testing and why does every apple look exactly the same at the grocery store? You'll be glad that you listened to this talk the next time your friend, or the cops, ask you for a DNA test.]]>

This talk is about the story of the unfolding universe (13.7 billion years) and how we, as a species, on the Earth (6.7+/- billion years old), are very, very recent arrivals in the "story". Our presence on Earth is the result of billions of years of very specific activities in the cosmos. If this activity had not taken place, in the way that it did, we, and countless other species wouldn't be here; ironically, the "story" is not about US. We play a unique and vital role as part of the natural wonder on this planet. So what is the "story" about? What is our purpose here on Earth? What does it matter that we are literally born out of "star stuff"? How can we relate to this bizarre, seemingly sci-fi story about the cosmos? These and other questions will be answered in this talk. Source information is based on cosmology work done by Brian Swimme, Tomas Berry and others. Because of the talk is so brief, it will be visually humorous, laced with irony and consist of generally mind-blowing information about who we are and how we fit into the Universe Story.]]>

Everyone pays attention to cars, power plants, etc., but few are talking about our largest environmental impact: buildings. Buildings use 76% of our total electricity vs. transportation which uses 1%. Buildings are the largest energy consumer of any type and have the highest CO2 emissions. LEED standards are moving us in the right direction, but they are still not a Net Zero impact. What's more, we could make buildings that actually *restore* the environment. In my talk I'll share the evolution of building sustainability, our current environmental impact, and share what is possible for the future.]]>
