War. Inflation. Hacks - you need hardcore protection for your Bitcoin! The SeedSigner is a revolutionary way to protect your Bitcoin. This user-friendly hardware wallet is easy to use and still very safe because it is completely offline, so hackers can't steal it. It is a great tool because it’s an air-gapped, open source hardware wallet that generates and stores the seed phrase of your wallet offline. In a way, the SeedSigner lets you store your Bitcoin without using a computer and that is why it’s more safe than any other tool that runs with a regular computer or mobile phone. If you want to protect your future with Bitcoin, this is critical! Most people store their Bitcoin on exchanges or software wallets, which are constant targets for hackers and scams. If you understand Bitcoin (or want to learn more about it now) you are in it for the long run and not just for short gainZ. Over time, the probability of a security breach approaches 100%, meaning if you don't control your private keys with a device like a SeedSigner, you will almost certainly lose your Bitcoin eventually. You might not lose it today or tomorrow but who knows what is going to happen in 10 years or in 100 years when you want to pass on your Bitcoin. Join us if you want to learn about hardcore protection for everyone. \*no condom needed, the SeedSigner is safe Facebook: [https://www.facebook.com/events/773449915623897](https://www.facebook.com/events/773449915623897) IG: [https://www.instagram.com/p/DWoCG_BjKSW](https://www.instagram.com/p/DWoCG_BjKSW) X: [https://x.com/cryptohubmalta/status/2039646887381233897](https://x.com/cryptohubmalta/status/2039646887381233897)

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

Bring your Raspberry Pi, Arduino, microcontroller, or any other electronic project and join fellow electronics makers for a night of creativity and collaboration! This session is open forum to share your current projects—whether complete or in progress, it’s all interesting! Whether you’re deep into embedded systems, exploring new ideas, or just getting started, you’ll find a welcoming space to collaborate, share, and get inspired. **New to electronics or curious about tinkering?** You’re absolutely welcome. If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience required—just an interest in learning and building. While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability. This session will be at the Worthington Park Library in the Olentangy Meeting Room.

**Caller: Kim Thompson** **Band: Full Moon Country Dance Orchestra** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle.
