Join us for some focused writing time. All writers and all experience levels are welcome and don’t worry, no one will see what you've written. This session is about getting your writing done and meeting other writers in your area. When you show up, say hello to everyone, grab a drink, and get your writing tools ready. Once you’re all settled, take some time to chat with your fellow writers. Once everyone’s arrived, I will lead quick introductions and then set the timer for our quiet and focused writing session. Afterward, we’ll have time to chat and get to know each other. We often talk about our successes and challenges as writers. If you don’t have time to stick around, no worries! **A note about the format** We don’t host critiques or readings. These events are a safe space for writers of all skill levels and genres to work on their craft, so no one will read or critique your writing.

Join us for an evening of focused tech talks, real-world frontend knowledge, and good people. We’ll hear from experienced engineering leaders on modern web practices. Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to connect, learn, and celebrate with fellow frontend enthusiasts! This meetup is organized by **[Enpitech](https://enpitech.dev/)**, a frontend-focused team helping startups build reliable, production-grade web products. This special event wouldn't be possible without the generous support of **AWS and Qodo**, our gracious hosts. **Agenda:** **18:00** \- Doors open \- Mingling \+ Food **18:30** \- Opening Remarks **18:40** - **Hila Fox -** Principal Engineer @ Qodo + **Addie Cohen** \- Software Engineer @ Qodo\. **Specialized Code Review Agents: The Evolution to Frontend Runtime Review** A year ago we built an agent. Then we made it agentic. Now it's a full-blown multi-agent system. Remember when products didn't change under your feet every five minutes? I do. It was nice. In this talk, we will share Qodo's journey through AI's chaos: how we moved from single prompts to multi-agent code review, architected with LangGraph and MCPs (Figma, Linear, and more). We will walk through some of our specialized review agents. Including a runtime agent that actually runs your code changes, records the UI flow, and catches UI errors and console errors on video. I'll close with a live demo and a few hard-won lessons on staying current in a market that won't slow down. **19:10 - Evyatar Alush** \- Software Engineer @ Meta **I just released vest 6, and it changes everything** **When?** Thursday, 26 February 2025 - **18:00 We start on time!** **Where?** AWS Israel (Tel Aviv) Region - Azrieli Sarona Tower, Derech Menachem Begin 121, Tel Aviv-Yafo Stage 28 -

**BUBBLES PURIM FESTIVAL -SUNSET TO SUNRISE** [כרטיסים מוזלים במכירה מוקדמת](https://go-out.co/event/shalvatabubblesfest?ref=a3fi92ff02) **28\.02\.2026 \| SATURDAY** **18:00** האמת? יש לנו הרבה מה להגיד. אבל הפעם בחרנו להתחיל מהסוף.
עם ליינאפ כזה, לפעמים הדבר הנכון ביותר הוא פשוט לתת למוזיקה לדבר לפני הכל. בפורים הקרוב אנחנו מארחים בלילה אחד כמה מהשמות הגדולים, הבולטים והאהובים ביותר בסצנה הישראלית והעולמית – כאלה שכשעולים על הבמה הלבבות רועדים, האנרגיה מתפוצצת וכל רגע מרגיש כמו חלום שלא רוצים שייגמר. זה נשמע כמו אשליה, אבל כן – זה אמיתי.

אנחנו הולכים לארח בלילה אחד את זהבי האחד והיחיד עם הבוזוקי והאנרגיה הבלתי נשכחת. את דרקו מכונת הלהיטים שממשיך לכבוש רחבות בארץ ובעולם. את דאלי עם הסאונד הייחודי שכשהוא עולה קורה משהו אחר ברחבה, ואיך אפשר בלי אשר סוויסה עם הגרוב האינסופי שמלווה אותנו כבר שנים. **:MUSIC A–Z** **Asher Swissa** **Danilo** **Darco** **Dali** **ME** **Fly Effect** **Zehavi** **Toled** 


אז מאיפה מתחילים? אנחנו חיים בבועה.
בועה של מציאות אחרת – כזאת שיודעת לקחת מורכבות, עומס ויום־יום, ולהפוך אותם לשמחה מתפרצת, לחופש, לרגעים של אסקפיזם טהור.
יש משהו בנו, משהו בעם שלנו, שיודע לנווט בין הכל – ולבחור לרקוד. אנחנו מבינים אתכם.
את התחושות בבטן, את הגירודים בגוף, את הפומו, את הצורך לצאת למסע מוזיקלי אמיתי.
לא עוד ערב. לא עוד מסיבה.
אלא חוויה. מסע. בועה משלנו. קפסולת זמן מושלמת, שבה אפשר להיות מי שאנחנו, לרקוד עם הפנים קדימה ולהיסחף עם האומנים הכי טובים לכמה שעות שבהן פשוט מרגישים שוב – חיים. רגע לפני שאנחנו פותחים עונה חדשה, החלטנו לעשות משהו מיוחד. אירוע חד־פעמי של **BUBBLES** בחג הכי צבעוני, חופשי ושמח בשנה – פורים. זה הזמן להשתחרר.
להתחפש.
להגזים.
להיות מי שאתם רוצים להיות.
כמה שיותר צבעוני יותר טוב וכמה שיותר משוחרר יותר נכון. באירוע הקרוב שוכחים הכל.
אנחנו יוצאים למסע מוזיקלי ארוך מהשקיעה ועד הזריחה.
מול הגלים על רחבת השלוותה, במקום שבו הכל מתחבר. 
**MIKOM** מול הגלים.
איפה שהשמיים כחולים יותר, הים אין־סופי, והרחבה פתוחה לכולם. המקום שראה הכל , דיג’יים בינלאומיים, אומנים מקומיים, רגעים גדולים ולילות בלתי נשכחים. אין לוקיישן מדויק יותר לבועה שלנו ואין מקום טוב יותר לחוות בו את פורים..



בואו לקחת חלק באירוע הכי מיוחד בשנה, 12 שעות של מוזיקה טובה שלא נגמרת.
תבואו מחופשים כמה שיותר מוגזם, נתראה **BUBBLES PURIM FESTIVAL**

On Friday, February 27, 2026, we will meet for a meetup on the topic: **“Why Do We Need Heroes?”** Read on the subject here: [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uAkywBw70QMNYtO8C8kxNauIa8wMTRgq95EEiSoExPg/](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uAkywBw70QMNYtO8C8kxNauIa8wMTRgq95EEiSoExPg/) **The session will be led by Boaz Simovici** Boaz Simovici earned his bachelor’s degree from UC Berkeley, studying music (with a specialization in conducting) and minoring in European history, where he also refounded and led the campus Objectivist club after 9/11. During and after college, he had the opportunity to conduct some of his favorite works and to perform extensively as a pianist, accompanying singers and sharing the stage with string players in sonatas by Beethoven and Brahms. Professionally, he worked for years as a tutor across a range of academic and test-prep subjects, including designing curricula for courses such as AP U.S. History and reading comprehension. He then spent a decade teaching piano and music theory full time. In recent years he has begun composing and is currently pursuing two writing projects while living in Israel. ***This meetup is open to the general public and does not require prior knowledge beyond reading the article.*** **Schedule:** 10:45–11:15 – Gathering 11:15–12:45 – Discussion of the article 12:45 – After-meetup: grabbing food and drinks at Sarona Market and returning to WeWork for mingling The discussion will start and end on time. Please arrive punctually and refrain from eating during the discussion. Donations to the Ayn Rand Center and to support the meetup activities can be made [here](aynrand.org.il/donate). **Entry Instructions:** Enter through Entrance A of Sarona Market. Across from the restaurant “Mexicana” there is a door to a stairwell. Go up to the 3rd floor and ring Iyar Raichel (050-5210025) to open the door. You may also write in the meetup WhatsApp group. You can arrive via the light rail – Yehudit Station. For those arriving by car, recommended parking is at “Platinum Parking” (appears in Waze) at a cost of 20 NIS. Other parking lots will be more expensive. You may also park at “Millennium Parking,” slightly farther away, for 10 NIS using the Central Park app. After the meetup, we will continue spending time at the WeWork space. It is customary to buy food at the market downstairs and return to eat in the WeWork area.

Join us in the search for the true, the good and the beautiful. Each meet is in one of two formats: a shared reading and open discussion of philosophical texts, or a continuing series of lectures based on the reading of a fascinating book of philosophy. Both formats are in Hebrew, with some reading of English texts, assisted whenever needed. We meet weekly Friday on 80 Rokach Boulevard, Tel Aviv, at the gardens of the Council for a Beautiful Israel. Welcome anyone interested in understanding life more deeply, regardless of age or prior knowledge. The love of wisdom is enough. Please join our WhatsApp group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/JeAa2uRNTlF0rdrVTLzUC0?mode=wwt Note: there's always enough sitting room, but some of it is on the grass or a mat on the floor. If you want to guarantee yourself a chair, please bring one with you. Sapere Aude! (Kant's Motto: Dare to Think!)

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!

**Comedy Night + Open Mic + Freestyle**: We've hired a professional comedian to warm the group up for our open mic session. Members have been making me laugh for years and we've tossed around the idea of a comedy night / open mic. Well, It's time to step up and crack me up. We'll start with Tristan Shae and a couple of his friends. Tristan is an alternative comic from Columbus, Ohio. A counselor by day, Tristan explores how comedy can improve mental health by telling jokes and stories that muse on how absurd life can be from squeaky clean topics to not so clean ones. Tristan produces the variety show Cheaper Than Therapy, hosts the weekly Problem Child Alt Comedy Open Mic at The Attic, and can be found engaging in all sorts of silliness around the city from stand up shows at The Nest Theater, The Attic, or The Funny Bone, to improv and sketch shows with various groups at various venues such as The Hashtag Comedy Club. **On Freestyle night** \- just bring a bottle to share\. There is NO formal wine tasting like on other weeks\. Door charge is $10 \(cash or Venmo only please\)\. We may have some left over wines to clear out\! Glasses are provided\. Take Care\. See you there\. **Parking**: There are several public parking lots near the Alive614 hall. Please be careful to NOT park in private parking lots. They do tow. Check Google maps to scope out your space. Anyone who is early could easily find a parking space on the street nearby. I am told that the Chase parking lot is safe after hours. **Glasses**: …will be provided. Please note that after the wine tasting, the EMPTY glasses need to be returned to the boxes at the service table. Please do not make me hunt down your empty glass. Please be gentle, our glasses are fragile. Uh, they are made of glass! **Food**: You are welcome to bring a snack to share. It is not required. Most people do though. If no one brings anything, there will be nothing. **Code of Conduct**: Though mostly understood, it’s still worth mentioning. We don’t have rules per se, but we highly discourage the following topics of discussion because they are likely to incite anti-social responses - Sex, Politics, Religion. Please don’t mistake this as an attempt to limit your free speech rights but rather a guide to a place and time for appropriate discussions. **After the lights go out**: After the last sip of wine, when we clean up and turn the lights out, if you still haven’t had enough of us, it is typical for a group to get together and go to a local eatery for food and/or drinks or coffee. Again, We look forward to meeting new members and reuniting with old friends. Sincerely, ***Paul Uttermohlen***, **Red 1 Realty** *Your Hilliard Wine Club Host*

**Caller: Frank Buschelmann** **Band: The Rosenthorns** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** 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. Snacks to share are always welcome!

Our next much-awaited **COLUMBUS** meetup is **Tuesday February 24 from 7-10 pm at ACE OF CUPS**. Meet patients, cultivators, processors, dispensary managers/staff, physicians, home growers, educators, activists, nonprofits, artists, attorneys, business owners, writers, students, and supporters to network, share our knowledge, collaborate, support each other and make new friends! WE HOPE TO BE COLLECTING SIGNATURES TO OVERTURN SB56. BRING YOUR FRIENDS, COLLEAGUES AND FAMILY MEMBERS TO JOIN US AND SIGN! Hope you will be there too! Save the date and pass the word. **Please RSVP** so we know who is coming and how many to expect. Find us to say hi and we will introduce you to others. We should be easy to spot. (The happy-looking group wearing cool nametags! See photos from our past events.) Sign in, grab a name tag, start your own bar/food tab, meet old friends and make new ones! Everyone is welcome. SEE YOU THERE!

Join us for something different as we get together to see EPIC: ELVIS PRESLEY IN CONCERT! While researching his 2022 film, director Bas Luhrmann came across and compiled rare and previously unseen interviews and videos of Elvis in concert to create “one of the most exciting concert films you’ve ever seen!” Here are details, a trailer and our plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Part documentary, part concert film, the latest from director Bas Luhrmann is a follow-up to his 2022 film starring Austin Butler. While researching the film, he came across 68 boxes of previously unseen interviews, concert performances and outtakes from previous films. A combination of offstage and onstage Elvis, comes a film that “befits the magnitude of Elvis as a performer but also offers deeper revelations of his humanity and inner life." It is written/directed by Baz Luhrmann (ELVIS, MOULIN ROUGE, THE GREAT GATSBY) and stars the legendary Elvis Presley! TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmqWusmzp0k BUZZ AND ACCLAIM: The film screened at the 2025 Toronto Film Festival where it was the runner up in the category People’s Choice Award for Documentaries. Next Best Picture says, “Certain to energize longtime fans and generate new ones for generations to come, EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert is a masterwork of montage.” And according to the NY Post, whether you have a room in the house devoted to Elvis or not, this truly “Epic” concert film is an energizing experience!” PLAN: We’ll plan for a pre-show bite at nearby BRAVO around 5 or 5:30pm followed by a 7pm-ish showing on one of their larger screens. Once showtime is announced, advance ticket purchase is advised. Please list your seat number in the Comments below. Exact showtime and meeting details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

For this event, we’ll help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents, wash dishes and clean surfaces at Fath Mission – Grant Kitchen.

With very 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. THANK YOU: This CMG Gives Back event provides an opportunity for YOU to get involved in helping others! Benefits go well beyond the help we give to others. Volunteering provides a wide range of personal benefits, including positive effects on mental and physical health, reduced stress/depression/anxiety, increased happiness and improved purpose, life-satisfaction and personal well-being! Plus, the opportunity to get involved, connect with others and help those in need. PARTNER AGENCY: This event is hosted by Lutheran Social Services (LSS), which serves thousands of people in need each day in 27 Ohio counties by addressing the four core societal issues of food, shelter, safety and healing. LSS offers food through the LSS Food Pantries, housing and supportive services through LSS Faith Mission and LSS Faith Mission of Fairfield County homeless shelters, domestic violence services through LSS CHOICES for Victims of Domestic Violence, senior living and health care, affordable housing communities, and other services that uplift families and strengthen communities. Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
