Yes, it's an early start, but yeah, the Uetliberg sunrise trail run is well worth it! If you want to catch the sight of deer crossing paths and an orange Zurich lake with the Alps in the background, this is when you need to go running. We meet at the S-Bahn station Triemli at 07:00 (S-Bahn station, not the roundabout) to go for an amazing loop up and down hills in the forest. Technical information: * Distance: 8-10 km * Elevation gain: 350-450 meters * Speed: approx. 7:30-8:00 min/km Looking forward to running with you!

**5th February - DotNet Zurich @ Isolutions** *Join us in person at Isolutions!!* This event will happen at Isolutions, The Circle. **Agenda:** * 17:45 Reception open & networking moment - note that if you come earlier we might ask you to help with the setup ;) * 18:00 Intro Hosts & .NET Zurich * 18:15 – 19:05 How to securely implement MCP with OAuth in .NET * 19:15 – 20:05 Swiss Identity in .NET: A Practical Guide to EIAM, aGov, SwissID, Entra ID—and Social Logins * 20:15: Pizza & drinks The event is held in English. **More detail & full excerpt of the talks & bios:** * **Title: How to securely implement MCP with OAuth in .NET** * **Abstract:** In this session, we’ll explore Model-Context-Protocol (MCP). We’ll begin with a high-level overview of MCP, illustrating its core concepts through a practical implementation using Semantic Kernel in .NET. From there, we’ll shift focus to security. We’ll examine common vulnerabilities in MCP-based architectures and demonstrate how to securely implement it using OAuth. Whether you're new to MCP or looking to deepen your expertise, this session will equip you with both the conceptual understanding and hands-on techniques to build secure AI solutions. * **Speakers:** * **Cédric Mendelin** As a seasoned full-stack developer with 8 years of experience, Cédric is fuelled by a passion for .NET, Azure and especially AI! He is dedicated to crafting valuable and secure solutions for end users generating true business value. Located in Basel, Switzerland. * **Raffael Nussbaumer** Raffael is an experienced .NET developer and Azure enthusiast. His experience in developing robust applications with solid craftsmanship is complemented by strong interest in modern DevOps practices and security. * **Damien Bowden** Damien is a web developer, architect and a Microsoft MVP for Visual Studio Development Technologies, Sonar Navigator who loves to learn. He contributes regularly to open-source projects on GitHub and Microsoft ASP.NET Core docs. He runs a very popular blog which focuses on ASP.NET Core, application security, Entra and Angular. * **Title: Swiss Identity in .NET: A Practical Guide to EIAM, aGov, SwissID, Entra ID—and Social Logins** * **Abstract** Modern Swiss apps rarely authenticate just one way. In this fast paced, concept-level session, we compare how to plug EIAM, aGOV, E-ID, SwissID, Microsoft Entra ID, and social providers (Google, Microsoft, Apple, Facebook) into software systems using OpenID Connect/OAuth 2.0 (and where SAML still fits). You’ll see side by side integration patterns and what each IDP means for user experience, assurance levels, consent, data residency, and compliance. We’ll finish with a simple decision matrix—when to choose which IDP, so you can ship secure sign in flows that match your audience, not the other way around. * **Speakers bio:** * **Thomas Aebi** Tom is a Solution Architect with a strong focus on Microsoft technologies. He has joined the party from the early days of .Net and later with Azure, too. He always strives to build a smart and lean solution consisting of already available services, complemented with code as needed. He loves to inspire others and share his knowledge. * **Marc Rufer** Marc is a passionate software engineer, living in Switzerland and interested in DevOps, DevSecOps, application security, web development and Azure. His favourite tools, technologies and standards are GitHub, Azure DevOps, ASP.NET Core, Git, Terraform, PowerShell, OIDC, SQL, EF Core, REST. * **Andres Bohren** Andres works as a Senior Microsoft Cloud Engineer/Architect for midsize to large Enterprises at isolutions in Switzerland.

He is Co-Organisator of the Microsoft 365 Community Schweiz Meetup group and was Speaker at several other Meetups or Conferences. He likes good Food, his Bike and nice Dive spots all over the World.

Hare (someone to set the route) is Her Majesty! Come join us! Expect a short and shitty live hared trail! **Where**: Meet at HB Lockers **When:** We'll meet at 6:50 pm to start at 7:00 pm. There's a charge of CHF 5 for participating, which covers all you can drink beer/cider (and non-alcoholic alternatives) plus snacks afterwards. **All Welcome:** If you are new, curious, and want to get out of the house, stretch your legs, talk shit, enjoy a drink, and hopefully a laugh, then here's what you need to know: • We are a social running/walking group, physical fitness is not required, but a sense of humour is useful. • The aim is to find the '*Beer Stop*' at the end of the '*trail*' and have fun. • 'True Trail' is typically 4-7 km. Some will go less (especially those walking or walk/running), and some over-achieving fast runners will go further. • The '*Hare*', which changes each event (along with location), cleverly lays the trail (typically with flour marks) so that everyone reaches the end at the same time. • There is always a place to deposit your bag and sometimes a place to change. • **After Trail**, we group for \~20-40 minutes for drinks, snacks, and some fun. This '*Circle*' is typically outside, so leave something warm in your bag in winter (and bring a flashlight when it's dark). If you don't want to stand around drinking afterwards, you can head home. We occasionally all go to a restaurant afterwards. **Why bother leaving your warm & dry sofa?** If you enjoy getting outside, being around people, and doing something a bit different, you will probably enjoy hashing. Exercise is important, and this is probably the least boring way to get it. 'Hashing' and the idea of some physical activity to work up a thirst, have been around for almost 90 years and there are groups (*Hashes*) in most major cities. Its humor and 'traditions' can be explored on the internet - **or you can just come along and find out.** *See you there.* We are of many nationalities, all ages, full of misfits and idiots (at least there is no one taking themselves seriously!) and always welcome newbies 'Virgin Hashers' and visitors from other groups.

Dear All, This session is mainly for the people who want to learn kundalini yoga/meditation in a traditional way. Traditionally the master will transfer his/her kundalini energy to the student to activate his important chakras (energy centre) including Third Eye and Crown Chakra. The student can start to feel his/her Kundalini Energy is rising from their base of the spine and feeling the energy vibration(Consciousness) in the third eye (the space between the eyebrows) from the Kundalini Activation. This session is helpful for the beginners who want to learn simple yoga-meditation exercises also. This is a general session to experience your inner kundalini energy. But if you need proper kundalini activation(Shaktipat), then pre-registration is mandatory. **What is included in this session?** Simple stretching practices for Hip and Spine (not complicated, even beginners can do) Kundalini Breathing Techniques Sound Energy (Mantra) Meditation Energy Healing Techniques Formal Kundalini Activation (optional and only for pre-registered people) Chakra Meditation Yoga Nidra (Relaxation) **Some of the benefits of Kundalini Energy Activation are:** Keeps the body healthy Mind attains its natural peaceful state, so the meditation becomes easy. Breathing pattern will be harmonized Stress release and peace Clear & sharp intellect More intuition Inner happiness Clairvoyance and Clairvision and to the ultimate SELF realization (which will lead to the blissful state - our true state) with enough years of practise **DONATION BASIS** **About the Teacher who conducts this session:** The kundalini wisdom teacher Jayaprakash is from India. He is practising kundalini yoga for the since 2005 under the guidance of Self Realized Indian Master "GuruMahan". He is teaching kundalini yoga since 2008 as part of a non-profit organization "Maha Shakthi Yogam Switzerland". He teaches Yoga/Meditation/Pranic Healing/Stress Relief courses in various places of Germany and Switzerland. He is the authorized kundalini yoga wisdom teacher from UPF(India) to give kundalini initiations (Shaktipat) with the Grace and Protection of his Master. All these events are conducted for non-profit purpose. Donations are collected on behalf of Swiss non-profit organization (Verein) "Maha Shakthi Yogam - Switzerland" **Eligibility:** Anyone can attend the session even if they don't have previous yoga/Meditation experiences. **Dress:** Wear a comfortable dress if possible yoga dress. We provide the yoga mat. **Please RSVP only you are really interested and coming ! Limited Seats !** **About Kundalini Shaktipat:** In every human being there is a source of natural energy that the yogis call the kundalini. In order to evolve in the yogic path, no matter what our path, the kundalini must be active. For most of us, the kundalini lies dormant at the bottom of the spine in the base chakra known as the Muladhar. When it awakens, it ascends through the chakras until it reaches the highest chakra, the Sahasrar. When that occurs, we merge with our True Self and attain SELF realization (our true nature). Shaktipat is the transfer of spiritual energy from the teacher to the student in order to awaken the kundalini. This process is compared to lighting one candle with another that is already lit and glowing. When the teacher is connected with the fully realized master and the energy is completely within his or her control, shaktipat initiation ensures that the student’s energy will remain active and stable. "Electricity is present everywhere, but there can be light only when the switch is turned on. Similarly the true master manifests the consciousness in the disciple through shaktipat.” **HAPPINESS is our TRUE Nature, which comes from within not from outside !**

A space to return to what is essential We invite you to take part in a ritual gathering for men, created for those who feel the call to pause, breathe, and reconnect with their inner strength in a safe and authentic space. We gather in the forest, around the grandfather fire, to share ceremonial cacao and form a circle of presence, listening, and brotherhood. This is not a workshop, nor a talk, nor a “self-improvement” experience. It is a living space of encounter, where each man is welcome exactly as he is. There are no hierarchies here, no masks to wear. Only men walking their own path, supported by the strength of the circle. **Who is this gathering for?** * This circle is open to men who: * Seek a more honest connection with themselves. * Feel the desire to inhabit their masculinity with greater awareness and maturity. * Value silence, authentic speech, and presence. * Wish to experience brotherhood beyond competition or judgment. * Are willing to listen and to be listened to. * No previous experience with circles, rituals, or spiritual practices is required. Only a willingness to be present. **What we will experience together** During this gathering of approximately two hours, we will move through simple yet profound practices, guided with care and clarity: * Ceremonial Cacao Circle, Cacao as a heart medicine, supporting openness, listening, and authentic expression. * Sacred Fire, The grandfather fire as the center of the gathering, witness to our intentions and processes. * Meditation and Presence, Moments of silence and inner connection, held by the group. * Talking Circle, A safe space to share from truth, without advice or judgment. * Connection with Nature: The forest as a living temple that reminds us of what truly matters. * Expression and Rhythm: An optional moment of music, song, or percussion to integrate the experience. Each gathering honors the energy of conscious masculinity, integrating strength and sensitivity, direction and openness. **Practical information** Duration: Approximately 2 hours Location: Forests of Zurich (The exact location is shared after registration) Energy exchange: Single ticket: 30 CHF Brothers ticket (2 people): 50 CHF Places are limited to preserve the quality and intimacy of the circle. **What to bring** * A cup for ceremonial cacao * A water bottle * Wood for the fire * An offering for the altar (fruit, seeds, a photo, or something that represents love and gratitude) * Notebook and pen * Musical instrument (optional) * Comfortable, warm clothing for outdoor conditions * Something light to eat after the gathering * We recommend fasting for at least 2 hours beforehand, as we will be working with ceremonial cacao. * A held and conscious space * This gathering is held with respect, confidentiality, and presence.

Dale Gnidovec, Curator of the Orton Hall Museum of Geology at The Ohio State University, will be presenting a program he has wanted to share with us for a long time: Plate Tectonics. His description of his program: Continents on the move - Nothing in Earth history makes sense without moving continents - it tells us why mountains, volcanoes, minerals, and fossils are where they are. This talk examines the evidence for continental drift, why it was disbelieved, and explains how the more-encompassing theory of plate tectonics was developed and eventually proven. Dale is an energetic, incredibly knowledgeable, and very entertaining speaker and this will be another wonderful program by Dale. Hope to see you there! Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.
