Subject: [sfchalkboard] Old macs to donate
To: "sfchalkboard(a)lists.riseup.net" <sfchalkboard(a)lists.riseup.net>
Good morning neighbors
Would like to find good home for:
Mac mini (2006)
MacBook (09 I think) with unusable cracked screen
19" Dell flat screen with connectors for both computers
Goldtouch split articulating keyboard with old style round Mac plug
Goldtouch numerical keypad with USB connector
Evolution mouse-track trackball
Everything works well given its age except the mouse which may work better
with a clean and adjustment.
Ideally I find a home this week for these items, easier if to one
organization or individual and I do love to know how useful these will be
in their next home. Pick up north west berkeley or I could possibly bring
to you for trade
Boy, when it rains it pours: the landlord just grabbed m hard by the writs,
then pushed me backwards, and then tried to close me into a shut-off area
with himself behind the only nearly-unstickable and one of the only really
robust door in the building, threatening me with the kind of contract he
would be able to afford to take out on my life if I didn't....? do
something unclear about etting out of here thisweek

We are looking for a competent individual who can help the Omni
Collective obtain insurance before our move-in on July 1! Can you help?

Subject: [omnilogistics] Omni Insurance: Please Read!

Hello friends,
I am hoping to find someone who would be willing to manage the process of
liasing with the insurance agencies we are in conversation with regarding
insurance for the Omni.
This will require a bit of a commitment - possible around an hour a day.
*It is incredibly important to note that, without insurance, we will
not be
able to take possession of the building.*
We must sort out our insurance BEFORE we move in on July 1st.
I am of the opinion that, while the insurance agencies will likely need to
speak with someone from each collective at some point, one person
should be
the main point of contact and see the whole process through to completion.
The insurance agencies move a bit slowly when left to their own devices so
who ever takes this on should be willing to apply some pressure to make
sure that things keep moving forward.
David has already done a ton of the preliminary work.
Here's what needs to happen first:
* Each member group: Please provide a name / phone number / email address
for whomever will be the point of contact within your organization for the
insurance agency. Ideally, we need this information *today*.
*PLEASE BE AWARE:*
* Every corporation **WILL** need their own insurance
* Every unincorporated association **MAY** need their own insurance.
Please contact me if you have questions.
If I do not hear from delegates today, I (or rather, the kind and generous
soul who volunteers to spearhead this) will be calling you!!!
Niki

Hi Sudo folks
I'm having trouble with dragon crashing/working super slow a lot. I definitely need to get it going smooth in the next
couple weeks because I'll need it for an online class. Does anyone have knowledge with this program? I think I may
have the wrong headset or version for my operating system, or there may be something else going on.
Thanks in advance for your time!!

"The Gig, which serves over 60,000 customers, was built because EPB [(the
local power company)] decided to upgrade its power grid. The company’s main
mission was to wire their customers’ homes with fiber optic cables that
could communicate meter readings and manage power at a lower cost than the
outdated systems used elsewhere. The fiber optic network also allowed EPB
to reroute power during storms, helping the company prevent or quickly fix
outages without the help of large crews.
"The fast Internet, along with TV and phone service, essentially
piggybacked on EPB’s new electrical grid."
You pedagogical and open knowledge radicals might be interested in meeting
these folks and participating. :]

Hey everyone!
A couple of weeks ago I met with a really neat educator named Darshan
Campos. She and some of her collaborators are putting on a mapping party of
the educational ecosystem of the East Bay, and will be using Oakland Wiki
and Local Wiki for this purpose! Below is her invite. I will be there over
the Internets. ;]
WHEN: *June 21st, 10a-5:30p*
WHERE: *South Berkeley Public Library // The Internet*
RSVP: *link below*
~~~
I'd love for you to join us for MEEP: Mapping Educational Ecosystems
Project <http://www.meepwiki.org/>'s first community learning lab.
MEEP aims to help solve one of today’s biggest challenges - how to build
learning institutions that work for people at all stages of life, from
birth until natural death. Our core values
<http://www.meepwiki.org/#%21values/c12fe> are rooted in community
informatics and the knowledge sharing revolution, which is at the heart of
Oakland Wiki.
At our lab <http://www.meepwiki.org/#%21lab/c8f4>, we'll map our
community's educational ecosystem, its many centers for learning and
teaching. We'll also practice cooperative learning techniques such as
spatial mapping, visual thinking, and affinity mapping. Our community
learning lab is on 21 June 2014 from *10:00 - 5:30 pm* at the *South
Berkeley Public Library*.
As a participant, you'll enrich our community's lens for education and
spread the word and worldview of community informatics. You'd also find
allies and form natural partnerships with individuals and organizations
that promote community learning. Plus, you'll eat tasty treats!
If you can join us, please RSVP
<http://www.eventbrite.com/e/community-learning-lab-for-meep-mapping-educati…>.
If have any questions or feedback, please email me.
Paz, Darshan

Hey sudo!
Tonight we went over the Omni lease that was sent out late last night.
At tonight's meeting, a consensus proposal was passed to empower me to
represent the spirit of sudo in signing this lease on sudo's behalf
before our next meeting (probably Friday or Monday), or in selecting
someone else to do it if necessary (I'm out of town starting Saturday).
The final version of the lease we have now is the result of no less
than a month's worth of daily negotiating between the owner and David
Keenan - meetings typically ranging from 3-5 hours a day. David's been
working his ass off on our behalf under the guidance of the Omni
Collective's lawyer, Jesse Palmer, who has extensive experience with
the kind of weird, co-opy property negotiations we're currently
undergoing. We are in good hands, and very nearly (99%) there!
I recommend that anyone interested in the details of our lease read it
over tonight and attend tomorrow's Omni meeting (7pm at 2141
Broadway), during which Jesse, our lawyer, will again be present to
answer any questions. Please see last night's email for the link, and
email me privately if access is not rapidly granted.
See the full meeting notes for details on the lease and questions
answered by Jesse at tonight's meeting - or if you are merely
interested in what everyone's favorite phase change is:
https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Meeting_Notes_2014-06-04
Our move-in date upon signing is officially July 1st, though we can
begin storing things there this month.
\o/
hack the planet!

Is this the kind of awesome junk we want at Omni, or what? Full disclosure
several people at the FNB meeting think I'm insane but I say this is
completely awesome. I pushed on the peddles, seems responsive. Definitely
rusty and dirty, you know uncertain functionality etc but I think a
keeper!... i'm trying to arrange a ride for it-maybe you?- or stop me if
you think this is completely insane. Its on Shattuck off Woolsey.
See picture...
