Remember, find us some speakers for the rest of the year. And get contact info from former members of the LUG, or of other LUGs in the Southern California area. It might be helpful for our 20th Anniversary planning.<br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_4762" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_4763" dir="ltr">We had a lot of SGVLUG/SGVHAK presence on the SCALE A/V team. Thanks for volunteering. It really helps, and it's great working with so many familiar faces.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_4764" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_4765" dir="ltr">Steven and Dave have been great at manning the SGVLUG/SGVHAK booth with hardware projects contributed by them and James and Michael S. Thanks also to John for providing some of the great items for the raffle and sales. We have SGVHAK/SGVLUG mugs and t-shirts, the Tux-Lab bottle openers and Arduino cases.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_7818" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_7820" dir="ltr">Here's my little contribution to the booth. I really should've picked a better color for my "R". The pieces come from the acrylic cutouts when we lasercut the SCALE A/V computer cases.<br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_7858" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_7840" dir="ltr"><a id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_7839" href="https://plus.google.com/105186854839066863267/posts/Mv3GXkPdZQj">https://plus.google.com/105186854839066863267/posts/Mv3GXkPdZQj</a></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_7956" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_7859" dir="ltr">For those of you who haven't been paying attention, there were live streams of most of the talks on Youtube!

You may have to crosscheck with the SCALE conference schedule to figure out which stream to seek through to find a recording of the talk. This year, the A/V team also managed to stream to the hotel TV. I'm never in my hotel room during the day so I haven't seen it yet. But I've heard people say good things.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_8095"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_8096" dir="ltr">The SGVLUG 20th Anniversary BoF was well-attended and we did some great brainstorming for the anniversary event we want to hold in November. You will hear more chatter about that on the mailing list after we've recovered from SCALE. <br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_8110" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_8868" dir="ltr">Game Night was awesome, as always, thanks to the SCALE entertainment crew. We were well fed, and there was an assortment of entertainment from air hockey and foosball to traditional board games to the Euro-style board games, to arcade games and video games. There was blacklight minature golf and a new display with tiny drones that are meant to fly through a ring.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_9006" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_8867" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1424589488475_8046" dir="ltr">Wish us luck on having a smooth Sunday.
