**Before the new year begins, you are invited to a quiet, intentional hour of coloring together in silence. *There is no fee to attend.*** Coloring gives your hands something simple to do, which allows the nervous system to slow down and the mind to wander without pressure. Many people find that clarity arises on its own, not because they are trying to reflect, but because they finally have room to. This is not spiritual. It is not therapeutic. It is not a workshop. There is nothing to achieve, fix, or prepare for. It is simply a communal pause and a quiet way to let the year land before moving on. This is a phone-free, expectation-free space to slow down and take personal inventory of the year that is ending. There are no prompts, no discussion, and nothing to share. Just time to sit, color, and let your thoughts settle naturally in the presence of others doing the same. Attendance is capped at 10 people to keep the space calm and intimate. ### How the hour will work: * **First 15 minutes:** Arrive, get comfortable, choose your coloring materials, order at the bar, and hear a brief explanation of the format and guidelines * **Next 45 minutes:** Coloring in silence * After the session ends, those who wish are welcome to stay and socialize ### What to expect: * 45 minutes of silent coloring * No phones and no conversation during the coloring time * Materials provided (FREE), or bring your own if you prefer * A calm and respectful environment * **Please arrive a little in advance & purchase your beverage at the bar** ### Who this is for: * Women 35+ * Anyone feeling mentally full, overstimulated, or tired of constant doing * Those who want a low-pressure way to close the year without rituals or resolutions Free to attend. Come as you are, even if you do not feel particularly reflective or festive. Sometimes the most meaningful reset is simply being still together.

**📌 THE PLAN** The holiday chaos is finally settling, but Sundays were made for wandering. We’re getting together for a relaxed afternoon walk through the heart of Milan. **No strict itinerary, no stress**—just a casual route in the city centre, ending with a chocolate fix at Starbucks Cordusio. **HOW IT WORKS** * **The Meeting Point:** 4:00 PM, P.zza Castello 1. An easy point to meet- * **The Vibe:** You can have a walk around Parco Sempione,a classic spot for milanese sundays, then go down Via Dante, cross through Piazza Duomo, and head toward the Starbucks Roastery. * **The Finish Line:** Once you hit Piazza Cordusio, you’ll grab a coffee or a hot chocolate at the **Starbucks Roastery**. Whether you grab it to go or find a spot inside depends on the crowd and the group’s mood. **📌 IMPORTANT: COMMUNITY-LED (No Official Host)** This is a self-organized meetup. There is no designated "event leader" on-site, so the success of the afternoon depends on the people who show up. * **Communication is Key:** You **must** join the WhatsApp group to coordinate. It’s the only way to find the group if you’re running late or can’t spot the crowd. * **The Reality Check:** If the WhatsApp chat is silent by Sunday at 2:00 PM, assume the energy is low and the event isn't happening. If you want it to happen, be the one to send the first message! **📌 TO JOIN** 1. **RSVP** on Meetup. 2. **Join the [WhatsApp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/FYTML17W7mxAmXXOrvIBSs)** <--- Mandatory for real-time updates. 3. **Keep it real:** If your plans change, please update your RSVP so the group isn't waiting around for you.

📌 **THE PLAN** Can’t decide between pizza, sushi, or burgers? Don't. We’re heading to **Mercato Centrale** for a "Low-Logistics" Saturday lunch. The goal is simple: grab whatever food you’re actually craving, find a big table, and meet new people without the nightmare of splitting a complicated bill or the formality of a sit-down restaurant. **HOW IT WORKS (Read Carefully)** * **Meet at 12:30 PM:** Gather at the main entrance of Mercato Centrale (inside Stazione Centrale, Via Sammartini side). * **Divide & Conquer:** Once the group is gathered, head inside to scout for a table. * **Choose Your Fighter:** Everyone hits their favorite stall—whether it’s Roman pizza, dumplings, or a classic burger—and we all meet back at the table to eat, drink, and chat. It’s loud, it’s casual, and it’s 100% stress-free. 📌 **IMPORTANT: THIS EVENT IS COMMUNITY-LED.** The Meetup team won't be present. * **Coordination:** You **MUST** join the WhatsApp group to coordinate. Finding a table for a group in a busy food hall requires teamwork! * **Real Talk:** If the WhatsApp chat is silent on Saturday morning, assume the event is not happening. Speak up to make it happen—be the one to say "I'm going, who's with me?" 📌 **JOIN HERE** 1. **RSVP to join**. 2. **Join the [WhatsApp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/IgtjWI0vKOHIkntAkVfKet)**[ ](https://chat.whatsapp.com/IgtjWI0vKOHIkntAkVfKet)— (Essential to find the table inside and coordinate!). 3. (Please!) **Keep your RSVP on Meetup updated**. You can't miss, because yes: **Street Food is the new way to lunch**!

Join us as we kick the New Year with a fun Happy Hour and your choice of two fun, new films! Option 1 is the biographical-musical-docu-drama, SONG SUNG BLUE, which stars Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson in the story about a real-life couple and Neil Diamond Tribute Duo. Option 2 is the comedy-action-adventure ACACONDA, which stars Jack Black and Paul Rudd as part of a group of friends remaking a favorite movie from their youth. Here’s a complete description, trailer and our plan for this event: SONG SUNG BLUE: The film follows Lightning and Thunder, a Milwaukee husband and wife Neil Diamond tribute act, who experience success and heartbreak in their musical journey together. Not a tribute to Neil Diamond, but a tribute to a Neil Diamond Tribute Band! The film is based on the 2008 documentary of the same name and is directed by Craig Brewer. It stars Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson, along with Michael Imperioli, Ella Anderson, King Princess, Mustafa Shakir, Hudson Hensley, Fisher Stevens and Jim Belushi. Critics call the film, “a crowd-pleaser with a ton of heart!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCM0Ztp3o1o ANACONDA: In this action-thriller-comedy-adventure, a group of friends going through a mid-life crisis head to the jungle to remake a favorite movie from their youth but encounter “unexpected events.” The film is directed by Tom Gormican and stars Jack Black, Paul Rudd, Selton Mello, Daniela Melchior, Thandiwe Newton and Steve Zahn. The film is a reimagining of the 1997 original. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMsFsfrPNaw PLAN: We’ll kick off the event with a pre-show Happy Hour at nearby Bravo! We’ll confirm the details and exact meeting time once we get the showtimes, but planning for 5 to 5:30pm for the Happy Hour and a 7pm-ish showing of both films. For the movies, we’ll meet inside the lobby area about 20 minutes before showtimes! Once showtimes are announced, advance ticket purchase is advised. Once you have yours, please list your Movie of Choice and seat number in the Comments below. Complete details will be confirmed and announced as the date gets closer. Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

Our January program is privileged to have Kristen Tregar as our speaker. Ms. Tregar is the co-author with John de Lancie (the actor who portrayed the character Q on Star Trek next generation) of a radio play depicting the events surrounding the Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District trial. The trial decided the issue of some of the Dover school district board members attempting to insert creationism disguised as "intelligent design" into the 9th grade biology curriculum. She will discuss the trial and the process of writing the play. (Bob Leonhard has seen the play and it is riveting and tense). Ms. Tregar's bio is below: Kristen Tregar is a dramaturg, director, playwright, and theatre teacher. She earned her Ph.D. in Drama and Theatre from the UC San Diego and UC Irvine joint program. In addition, she has a MS in Forensic Science from City University of New York- John Jay College of Criminal Justice and a MA in Educational Theatre from New York University- Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. In 2013, in collaboration with Irish colleagues, she founded *The Ireland Project*, an intercontinental devised theatre work with high school students in New York and Tallaght, Ireland. Her original short story "Far From Here" was recently published in *Stay Awhile Longer: More Scenes From Temecula Valley*. She has two rescued dogs (Kira and Harry) and she rides, competes, and foxhunts with her horses, Andromache and Baker Street Irregular. Food and drinks will be provided at the event.

Session Abstract **Data on Fire: A Hands-On Intro to Spark in Fabric** Curious about Apache Spark but not sure where to start? This hands-on session introduces you to Spark in Microsoft Fabric Notebooks—a powerful and accessible way to process and analyze big data using familiar tools in the Microsoft ecosystem. We’ll break down key Spark concepts like distributed computing, DataFrames, and lazy evaluation, then show how they come to life inside Fabric’s notebook experience. You’ll see practical demos that cover loading, transforming, and analyzing large datasets—while leveraging Fabric’s modern data stack, including OneLake, Dataflows, and Pipelines. You’ll also learn how to choose between Spark and pure Python notebooks in Fabric, based on execution needs, data integration, and use case fit. Whether you're a SQL pro, BI developer, or data engineer, this session will give you the tools and confidence to start using Spark in your own projects—no cluster management required. \*Please note, that we will be using Microsoft Teams for the online portion of this meeting. You may want to join a few minutes early to ensure you do not have any issues. If you are attending in person, there are large TVs at the office, and you do not need to bring a laptop or use Teams.
