Comedy Show

Širenjem našeg unutarnjeg prostora dolazimo na sve viši nivo svjesnosti. No naše fizičko tijelo nisko izvibrirano, obilno hranjeno negativnim emocijama i mislima stvara prepreke tom širenju i naša životna energija se smanjuje… Osvijestimo naš unutarnji prostor, očistimo blokade, omogućimo našem tijelu protok, omogućimo si unutarnji mir. Stanje unutarnjeg mira nam pomaže u lakšem suočavanju sa stresom, sposobnost donošenja boljih odluka i podiže kvalitetu života. Svojim dolaskom i donacijom izravno podržavate rad našeg Kluba. Hvala :)

**Join us on a unique trip, suitable for everyone, to see one of UNESCO's World Heritage National Parks.** **You may see the reviews [here](https://www.meetup.com/AAA-London-Group/events/91199492/)** [Photos are here](https://www.facebook.com/AAALondonGroup/photos?tab=album&album_id=1189766161223673) & below the event description. **Please, send all trip questions to aaalondongroup@yahoo.co.uk** Croatia is one of the ecologically best-preserved parts of Europe. It is a land where the hues of the sunny and warm Mediterranean happily blend with the tranquillity and freshness of the mountains and the gentle sway of the golden plains of Pannonia. **Plitvice Lakes National Park is Croatia's first National park, established in 1949,** covering 296.85 square km of breathtaking natural splendour, **making it the largest among the country's 8 national parks, ranging in altitude from 367 m to 1279 m above sea level.** **The Plitvice National Park is beautiful in any season.** The park was inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List in 1979, recognising its "outstanding natural beauty and undisturbed production of travertine (tufa) through chemical and biological action". It represents a phenomenon of karst hydrography. The park harbours a grand collection of waterfalls, a gallery of lakes, forests and a diversity of animal life. The lakes are renowned for their distinctive colours, ranging from azure to green, grey or blue. They change constantly depending on the number of minerals or organisms in the water and the angle of sunlight. The 16 lakes are formed by natural dams of travertine & separated into upper and lower lakes. There are 8 km of good pathways and wooden walking trails around lakes, accessible even by wheelchair and steeper, narrower mountain paths, too. We also plan to visit the small but stunning **village of Rastoke,** which is formed by the play of nature on the place where the River Slunjčica connects with the River Korana. Nature played with the blue-green waters and spread them into many big and small waterfalls. Rastoke is known for its 18th-century flour mills and homes, built in traditional architectural styles. **STAY INFORMED** **[Join the AAA Hiking Mailing List for our Special Offers.](https://www.aaahiking.co.uk/newsletter-signup)** POSSIBLE ENTERTAINMENT There is a chance to have a local folk band on the last night if we are a large group and prepared to chip in.

Zagreb language and culture exchange meetup. Chat in many languages, meet new people and plan adventures together. Hey everyone! 👋 As spring arrives in Zagreb and the city wakes up again, we’re keeping Thursdays social with **Small Friday International Zagreb** ([SFIZ.FUN](https://sites.google.com/view/smallfridayinternationalzagreb/)) a relaxed international meetup where locals, expats, Erasmus students and travellers gather to chat, exchange languages, share stories and plan the next adventure.

Što danas zaista donosi rezultate kampanjama i zašto se marketinška industrija sve više vraća brendu, kreativnosti i dugoročnom učinku? Nakon rovinjskog gostovanja MMZG-a na Danima komunikacija, najvećeg regionalnog festivala komunikacija i kreativnosti, ovoga puta DK goes MMZG! Poslušajte dio ekipe iz Organizacijskog odbora Dana komunikacija kako s Danijelom Štihom razgovaraju o ključnim pravilima koja će obilježiti uspješne kampanje u 2026. Kroz uvide iz najrelevantnijih svjetskih strukovnih istraživanja, poput WARC-a, Cannesa i IPA-e, panelisti će otvoriti pitanja učinkovitosti, kreativnosti i strateških odluka koje danas čine razliku između hrabrih i generičkih brendova. Panelisti: * **Jelena Fiškuš** \- Studio Sonda * **Anđela Buljan Šiber** \- Izone\.agency * **Damir Ciglar** – Imago Ogilvy * **Danijel Štih**, moderator – WPP Media Vidimo se 8.4. u 19 h na Zavrtnici u Wespa Spaces! 🤝 O PANELISTIMA * **Jelena Fiškuš**, kreativna direktorica i suosnivačica kreativnog Studia Sonda kojeg vodi sa Seanom Poropatom. Pobornici su ideje da dizajn i komunikacija moraju biti logični, iskreni i intuitivni, a najbolji okidač za kreativnost sadržajan je i ispunjen život. Za projekte s područja dizajna i komunikacije, dobitnici su brojnih domaćih i međunarodnih priznanja. Predsjednica je Uprave Hrvatske udruge društava za tržišno komuniciranje (HURA) i IAB-a Croatia. * **Anđela Buljan Šiber** je članica organizacijskog odbora Dana komunikacija, ključnog regionalnog festivala tržišnih komunikacija i vlasnica agencije Izone. Od 2019. do 2023. vodila je HURA-u i IAB kao njihova predsjednica, a uz rad u industriji, jednako predano bavi se i znanošću, nastojeći pritom znanost približiti praksi. * **Damir Ciglar** je utemeljio i vodio (do 1. aprila) Imago reklamnu agenciju, ili Imago Ogilvy, od 1992. godine. Voli se praviti pametan i kreativan. Istini za volju, ima par desetljeća kreativnih i marketinških iskustava (od kojih neka i u stranim državama), kao i nekoliko nedovršenih, pa čak i dovršenih postdiplomskih studija (gdje ima iskustva i kao predavač), tako da ima i zrnce marketinške teorije. Uglavnom, više o njegovim životnim postignućima možete uvijek pogledati na www.imago.hr. Ili na www.hearth.hr. Ili na www.rrgr.hr. Ili na www.drap.hr. * **Danijel Štih** je pasionirani kolekcionar briefova, zaljubljenik u spajanje nepovezivog i glavni strateg u hrvatskom uredu medijske agencije WPP Media, jednog od globalnih lidera marketinške komunikacije. I makar je prošao svaki trend, hit i modu koja se u zadnjih 25 godina desila u našoj industriji, još uvijek je pravi predstavnik Generacije X i čvrsto vjeruje da je dobar proizvod za fer cijenu - sve što ljudi žele. \*\*\* 18:30-19:00 Okupljanje sudionika, Wespa spaces Zavrtnica 19:00-20:15 Panel rasprava: "5 pravila koja povećavaju rezultate kampanja u 2026." 20:15-20:30 Otvorena rasprava i pitanja publike 20:30-...

Jedan od rijetkih, a možda i jedini business event gdje keynote počinje na žičari, dok skijanje prirodno otvara nove poslovne perspektive, prilike za networking i inspiraciju za hrabrije odluke u poslu. * [MediaKit](https://mediakit.hr/) je informativna platforma za sve koji žive marketing, PR, medije i event industriju.

Na novom LevelUp Meetup imamo priliku čuti jednog od najuglednijih hrvatskih psihijatara i psihoanalitičkih psihoterapeuta, **prof. dr. sc. Darka Marčinka**, predstojnika Klinike za psihijatriju i psihološku medicinu KBC Zagreb i redovitog profesora Medicinskog fakulteta u Zagrebu. Profesor Marčinko već desetljećima istražuje duboke poveznice između psihičkog zdravlja, međuljudskih odnosa i društvenog konteksta. Naš dragi gost će nas provesti kroz nekoliko ključnih tema koje obilježavaju suvremeno doba: * **Dimenzije stresa i mentalnog zdravlja** – kako suvremeni život oblikuje našu otpornost i ranjivost * **Transgeneracijska trauma i usamljenost Hrvata** – zašto je usamljenost postala gotovo nacionalna bolest i koja je razlika između usamljenosti i samoće * **Zašto je narcizam gubitnička strategija** – unatoč prividnoj snazi i grandioznosti, narcistički način života na kraju donosi samo patnju i izolaciju * **Važnost dobrih odnosa** – osvrt na najnoviju knjigu profesora Marčinka i njegovog tima „Dobri odnosi“ (2025.), koja pokazuje da su kvalitetni međuljudski odnosi možda najvažniji zaštitni faktor mentalnog zdravlja * **Socijalni faktori** u nastanku i održavanju psihičkih teškoća – jer više nismo u mogućnosti promatrati čovjeka izvan njegovog društvenog i kulturnog konteksta * **Polarizacija u suvremenom svijetu** – psihodinamski pogled na duboke podjele koje vidimo u društvu, obiteljima i među bliskim ljudima Profesor Marčinko spojit će kliničko iskustvo, psihoanalitičku dubinu i dugogodišnje znanstveno istraživanje kako bi nam pomogao bolje razumjeti sebe, svoje najbliže i društvo u kojem živimo. Predavanje nije samo teorijsko – ono je i praktično. Donosi uvide koji nam mogu pomoći u svakodnevnom životu, u odnosima s partnerom, djecom, roditeljima, kolegama i sa sobom samima. Ovo nije klasičan MeetUp – već večer iskrenog razgovora, inspiracije i konkretnih uvida koje možete odmah primijeniti u svom životu. MODERATOR: ZORAN SALOPEK 👉🏻 Prijave: Meetup platforma 📍 Pivana, Ilica 222, Zagreb 🗓 08.04.2026. u 18:00h Organizator: Međunarodni institut za emocionalnu zrelost – zajednica poduzetnika, stručnjaka i znanstvenika posvećenih razvoju pojedinaca i društva. 🌐 http://emotionalmaturity.eu

For more information about the competition, please click **[HERE](https://deepscout-challenge.miton.cz/).** Web scraping is no longer just about simple scripts. Modern websites are complex, dynamic, and protected by many anti-scraping systems. At the same time, companies need large amounts of structured data from the web. In this event, we will focus on a real scraping use case and use it to explain how modern scraping works. You will learn what kinds of protections websites use today, what tools can be used depending on website difficulty, and what technical challenges appear in practice. We will also show how machine learning and AI help turn messy web data into structured, usable information. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- ⌚️ **Start**: 16:00 and end at 17:00, both online and offline in **Truhlárna Karlín** (Šaldova 388/5) - **Onsite attendance is limited to 100 people.** 🎙️ **Speakers:** Jan Mittner, Michal Marhan 🍻 **Networking** after the seminar – great food and cold beer waiting for you! **🎥 Recording:** After the event we will publish a recording and post a link to it in the comments. 🚪**Doors open** at 15:45, and the event officially starts at 16:00.

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!

Communication is everything in life! You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate. 1266 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH 43215 Hosted by the Church of Scientology of Central Ohio For more information, contact Rhiannon, the Event Host at 614-221-5024

The topic for April is "Water" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

How do you feel happier with people? How do you get into the spirit of group activities? How do you get rid of the anxiety of communicating in front of people? In this meeting, you will learn the secrets of how to connect with people, open yourself up to people, and have a grand time being yourself. This meeting will be led by an expert who has been working with people just like you to feel happier and improve communication skills for over 10 years. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics & Scientology life improvement center.

Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event!

Here are complete details and our plan for this event: FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces.

LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking is available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details: IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to all of YOU for volunteering at this (and any of our previous) CMG Gives Back events! Should be a good/fun/meaningful time together, Dan

Join us as we get together for a Discount Tuesday / Choose Your Movie event to see your choice of two great new films! Option 1 (and the one I'll be seeing) is the top-reviewed comedy-drama, THE CHRISTOPHERS! The film is set in the art world and follows the estranged children of a former artist who hire a forger. It is directed by Steven Soderberg, stars Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel and has been earning rave reviews on the indie circuit. Option 2 is the latest action-thriller starring Bob Odenkirk, NORMAL! The film follows a temporary small-town sheriff who uncovers dark mysteries after a local bank robbery. Here are descriptions, trailers and our plan for this event: THE CHRISTOPHERS: The children of a once famous artist hire a forger to complete some unfinished, long ago abandoned canvases so they'll have a better inheritance when he dies. It is directed by Steven Soderbergh and stars Ian McKellen, Michaela Coel, Jessica Gunning and James Corden. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film is earning an excellent 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics call it a “dynamic, emotional and surprising journey” and a “compelling chamber piece that works like intellectual comfort food.” Others call the film, an “incredibly funny, comedy drama with plot reversals that make it feel like it’s on the verge of a thriller!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H79-EqzmdwY&t=20s NORMAL: This action-crime-thriller follows a man who comes to the sleepy town of Normal, Minnesota to serve as the temporary sheriff. But a bank robbery leads him to a criminal underground reaches throughout the entire town. The film is directed by Ben Wheatley and stars Bob Odenkirk, Henry Winkler and Lena Headey. The film comes from the same team that brought us Nobody and the John Wick series, so expect an over-the-top, action-filled thrill ride! TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rmm-lM33Qw0&t=19s PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing of both films and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime. Once showtimes are announced, advance ticket purchase is advised (GFC website preferred)! Please list your movie of choice and seat number in the Comments section of this event. Showtimes and complete details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. PARKING: Close, convenient parking is available in the nearby garage (located between 9th and 11th, just off High St). Bring your ticket with you and have it validated at the theater and for $2, you’re covered for the night! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
