DIESEN FREITAG **Ecstatic Dance – Circle of Abundance** Gemeinsam erinnern · Verbinden · Manifestieren Am **Freitag, 8. Mai 2026**, öffnen wir einen besonderen Raum für unsere Community – nicht als etwas, das wir im Außen suchen, sondern als eine Qualität, die entsteht, wenn wir **uns als Gemeinschaft verbinden und gemeinsam ausrichten**. In Zeiten wie diesen ist die **Kraft des Miteinanders** ein zentraler Bestandteil unseres gemeinsamen – und zugleich individuellen – Weiterkommens. **Circle of Abundance** lädt uns ein, Fülle nicht nur zu denken, sondern zu verkörpern, zu teilen und miteinander zu stärken. ✨ I**nner Echoes** (Resident Artists in Corfu auf Europa Tour) kehren zurück, um diesen Abend gemeinsam mit uns zu gestalten – mit Tiefe, Präsenz und offenem Herzen. Das verspricht uns einen sehr hochwertigen ehrlichen Abend. Special Opening – Abundance Circle Da wir dieses Mal **um 17:00 beginnen**, eröffnen wir den Abend mit einem kraftvollen **Manifestationskreis**, der uns mit klarer Intention stärkt. In einer gemeinsamen Zeremonie erforschen wir das Thema der Fülle, lösen innere Begrenzungen und richten unsere kollektive Kraft bewusst auf das aus, was wachsen möchte. Mit entschlossenen Worten, deiner eigenen Manifestation und einer Einladung in unsere Community. Du kannst auch direkt zum Dance kommen, wie immer. Ein Raum für Begegnung, Ehrlichkeit und gemeinsames Empowerment. **Künstler & Rollen** 🌱 **Sebastian – Circles** Mit vertrauter Herzlichkeit und einem feinen aber entschlossenen Sinn für das was uns als Kollektiv wirklich voran bringt. ☀️ **Inner Echoes – Ecstatic Dance DJ Set** mit Tom, begleitet von Jennifers Stimme. Kraftvoller Sound, der uns mit Dynamik, Weite und Herzöffnung verbindet. 🌺 **Inner Echoes – Sound Journey & Integration** Klavierklänge (Tom) und Stimme (Jennifer) verweben sich zu einer tiefgehenden, intuitiven Erfahrung, die zum Innehalten, Lauschen und Eintauchen einlädt. **📍 Freitag, 8.

No acting experience needed - just bring your presence and curiosity!

Why is it that we strive so deeply to fulfill what seems to be our most fundamental human longing - yet so often fall short? Could it be that the roots of this struggle lie in subtle misconceptions about who we are - and what we seek in others? And if so, is there a different way of relating… one that truly works? In a small, carefully curated group of like-minded individuals, we create a space for thoughtful exploration of these questions. The evening begins with a short talk by Alan Watts – On the most fundamental human desire. This is followed by a facilitated conversation, where we reflect on the key ideas and how they resonate with our own experience. After a short break, we gently shift from dialogue into silence—turning inward, allowing space for deeper insight, reflection, and inner resonance. An evening for those who are drawn to depth, authenticity, and the exploration of life’s essential questions—in connection with others, and with oneself. Hosted by Dieter Langenecker, facilitated by Tom Stub. Tanja Odermatt PS: We’ll officially close at 8:00 pm — and if you feel like staying a little longer, you’re very welcome. PS: A contribution of €20 will be collected to cover the costs, like room, coffee, tea, juice, and cookies. Additional donations are most welcome. PPPS: 1st door (if closed) use code 2008 + push the button with the bell symbol; at the 2nd door ring at Int'l. Management Institute/ System. Institute.

We will meet in a calm and friendly place ( Parc, Café, Restaurant) to explore together some of Jiddu Krishnamurti’s key questions about awareness, relationship, and freedom. There will be no teaching, no authority — only open dialogue and attentive listening. Everyone is welcome, whether you are familiar with Jiddu Krishnamurti or simply curious about life and self-understanding. We’ll start with an open conversation around a theme such as “Listening without judgment” or “Can thought bring clarity?” Please bring openness, curiosity, and a readiness to listen — no books or notes needed. The spirit is not to discuss “what should be,” but to observe together “what is.”

Hi Running fellows, Whether you’re a walker, new to running, a semi-pro, a marathonist or a sprint star - if you want to start your weekend in an active way and enjoy the outdoors in lovely surroundings with a fun, international and multilingual group of people, you are welcome to join us! Every Saturday at 9:30 am, we meet, we run, in the magnificent Schönbrunn park, and then we go for breakfast. Want to discuss politics or the best recipes for banana pancakes? Not a problem. Not feeling social? Tune out with your earbuds - we can talk over breakfast. We are casual. You can be too. What to expect: Start by meeting Adrian, Ali, Liz, Paul and Sonia on-time at 9:30am outside the Schönbrunn U-Bahn stop (exit Grünbergstraße). (Coordinates: 48.1858130, 16.3200640) From there, we walk to the side park entrance where the “running” part begins. The important thing is that you run at your own pace.

(Coordinates: 48.1858825, 16.3032647). From there, we’re off to breakfast!

If you missed us earlier, you can always go there around 10:45. We are a fun group of runners who don’t take things too seriously. We meet, chat, RUN, stretch, chat, EAT and we hang out over a beer every now and then. It's that easy. Please join us for breakfast after the run! The more the merrier. Typically we are 10-30 people, as not everyone who comes signs up on meetup. Important disclaimer: Please only run as much as you feel you can, considering the temperature, weather conditions, your own fitness etc... run and walk at your own pace as the organizers do not assume any liability for any injuries or health issues. Sonia, Adrian, Ali, Paul and Liz

Join us for lunch/tea at Asterisk Supper Club to discuss our May book "Under the Oak Tree" by Suji Kim Lady Maximilian is the daughter of the powerful Duke Croyso, but she is rarely allowed outside her family’s sprawling castle for fear that her stutter will tarnish their noble name. When she is forced to marry Sir Riftan, a lowborn knight caught in one of her father’s schemes, Maxi doesn’t dare hope for happiness, let alone love. Her stumbling communication and his gruff manner sour their relationship before it can begin, and Riftan leaves without a word the morning after their vows are exchanged. Now, three years after their disastrous wedding night, Riftan has returned as a war hero. To Maxi’s surprise, despite rumors that he was offered marriage to Princess Agnes, a beautiful and renowned sorceress, Riftan still wants Maxi for his wife. And when he comes to claim her, his longing becomes a desire that bewilders Maxi, even as she is overcome by the scorching heat that Riftan’s presence ignites within her. As she learns to navigate the intricacies of her new life, Maxi will find herself and her courage, and discover that she is anything but powerless.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
