Hi all,

I was messing around with nothing in particular the other night, and I
made a Wordle out of code4lib.org's Atom feed. It came out pretty  
well,

so I thought I'd share.

It is somewhat lamentable that I won't arrive in Asheville until
Monday and therefore will miss the geek showdown on Biltmore St.

[CODE4LIB] Van Departure list updated...

2010-02-17 Thread Jill Ellern
Hey Code4Lib attendees,

Well I spend another day in Excel Hell seeing if we could squeeze anymore van 
runs..lol

 I'm sad to say, we could only add one van load to the list and it's early 
one..  I am very sad about it. ( But this does leave 4 slots open for those 
that want to leave extra early..so check it out to see if you want to do 
this...)

We could really use 3 vans to get all the folks that seems to want to make that 
trip to the airport at same time on Thursday... But we don't.  Sorry...  :(

Only thing I can do to help is recommend the following folks get together to 
see if they can share taxis or rides.

Based on my calculation...I recommend that:

Marquez, Stethers, Lamm, and Young see what they can do to share a ride at 
12:15 pm on Thursday...

Barrera, James, Rockliff, Reiss and Rochkind see what they can do to share a 
ride at 2:00 pm on Thursday...

Hellman, Classen-Wilson, and Kome see what they can do to share a ride at 2:30 
pm on Thursday

And Gong, Ou, and Atzberger see what they can do to share a ride at 3:30 pm on 
Thursday.

The rest is up to you...

I'm going to look tomorrow to see if we can add a late run on Monday (I think I 
see a possibility there with those folks with a "-" in the ride share list last 
column...)

Ordinarily I'd join the Bier Garden crowd but I'm headed there for the
Newcomer Dinner the day after.

But maybe we can start a Tupac/Biggie Smalls kind of rivalry between
the Bier Garden crowd and the Thirsty Monk crowd for the
pre-pre-conference drinking?

I sort of skimmed the emails in this thread and came to the conclusion
that the Thirsty Monk and the Bier Garden were somehow the same place.
 They're not!

So, if anyone's interested in BOTH beer and hockey, Julia's suggestion
of the Bier Garden seems like a good one.  I've added a link to the
social activities page, if anyone's interested.

[CODE4LIB] Atiz Pro Cameras?

2010-02-17 Thread Fleming, Declan
Hi folks - any of you out there have an Atiz Pro?

 

http://pro.atiz.com/

 

I'm wondering what kind of cameras to get for it.  Of course, I want
5DMarkIIs, with a back up that I'll house in my camera bag, but that
might be overkill... ;)

 

Thanks!

The addresses are the same building. The Pub is two stories
and each level fronts a different street with an interior 
interconnecting staircase. The Belgian bar (50 Commerce) 
opened first and then we expanded upstairs and opened the 
American Craft part (92 Patton).

Re: [CODE4LIB] Sunday in Asheville

2010-02-17 Thread Julia Bauder
Ooh!  Ooh!  I want to watch the hockey game!  (As long as y'all won't throw
things at me if I root for Canada)  They have an NHL team in North
Carolina--there have to be SOME hockey fans in the state.

The Bier Garden is listed as a sports bar on Yelp, and their Web site says
they have 16 televisions -- I'm sure we can convince them to tune a measly
one TV to the hockey game.

There's also the Canada/US Olympic men's hockey game on Sunday night
at 7:30 EST.  Finding an establishment willing to turn it on might be

The Yelp entry has their address being 50 Commerce St, Asheville, NC 28801.  
However their website (http://www.monkpub.com/) has them at 92 Patton Ave, 
Asheville, NC 28801 (which is even closer to the conference hotel).  Google 
maps now has Hookah Joe's at the 50 Commerce St address, so perhaps the Thirsty 
Monk has moved.  They are not answering their phone (828-254-5470) this early, 
but I will try them later on to get clarification.

Belgian beer is my favorite, so I plan on going (even if you are going to be 
there -- just teasing!).  I didn't notice any Atomium on draft, though 
(previewing the beer menu is how I happened to notice the address discrepancy).

[CODE4LIB] Newcomer dinner reminder

2010-02-17 Thread Becky Yoose
Hi everyone,

There's still lots of room left for the Newcomer dinner on Monday, so please
look at the restaurant sign up
listand
sign up for the restaurant of your choice.

Guidelines to keep in mind while making your choice:

   - Max of *8* per location
   - ID yourselves so we can get a good mix of new people and vets
   - New folks - n
  - c4l vets - v
   - One leader needed for each location (code4lib vets only - New people
   can skip this part)
  - Leader duties
 - Make reservations if required; otherwise make sure that the
 restaurant can handle a group of 8 rowdy library coders
 - Herd folks from hotel to restaurant (know where you're going!)

There's at least one group that has people signed up but no one in the
leader slot. If there are any vets that want to step up and take the lead,
I'd greatly appreciate it!

FYI - I have listed on the wiki to meet in the hotel lobby at 6 PM Monday
evening. People can meet up with their groups from there...

Let me know if you have any questions. I'll see all of you very soon!

Thanks,
Becky

Personally for me, there is no weather where you cannot jog.According to 
the weather reports only two days look like rain (and I am sure it probably 
will not rain the whole day), and the temp is fine for running-not cold at all. 
 So forget the gym.  Also, I am up for a 6 to 8 mile run-get to see more of the 
town. /Ray

code4libcon is about here, yay!

 

I'm kinda in a fitness craze right now, and will be doing some  

training in Asheville.

 

Monday night, 6:30pm, I'm going to the CrossFit Asheville gym - 
http://www.crossfitasheville.com/

I contacted them and they said that was a good time to come.  I'll  

likely go back on Wednesday night at the same time.  (dunno if they'll  

charge some fee, though).  There were a couple of folks that mentioned  

interest, and I can carpool up to 3 others.  If you've never done it  

before, now's not the time to start and I'm sure they'll only let  

experienced folks partake, but I imagine those curious about the  

insanity are welcome to spectate.

 

Jogging - what say folks up for runs meet in the hotel lobby at 6:30am  

any day next week.  I'm game for a relatively short run (2-3 miles)  

both Monday and Wednesday.  I fleshed out a daily signup on the wiki.   

If it's too cold or treacherous out, I'll just hit the treadmill or  

rowing machine if they have it.

 

  http://wiki.code4lib.org/index.php/C4L2010_social_activities#Working_Out

 

I'm still debating how many pushups folks must do at the Black Belt  

preconference, and which kata to teach ;)

[CODE4LIB] Sunday in Asheville

2010-02-17 Thread Michael J. Giarlo
Folks,

We have a fabulous slate of social activities lined up for this year's
conference in Asheville (thanks to, well, y'all).  But those of you
arriving on Sunday will notice there are no planned outings that
night!  Oh noez!  Well, I'm planning to spend my post-dinner time at
the Thirsty Monk [1].  It's a half-mile from the conference hotel, so
it's easily walkable/stumbleable.

I hope to run into some of you folks there.  If you're into Belgian
beer and a different pub atmosphere, do join me.

-Mike

P.S. If you'd like to reach me via phone, my number is: the NJ area
code beginning with seven, followed by the numerically lower Santa
Monica (CA) area code, followed by the sum of the prior value added to
the number of the beast, padded with one zero.
