Join us for a hike around Czech Siberia- a snowy fairy tale land of forests, quarries, chateaux on snow and mud. 📜📚🗃 Resources: https://mapy.com/s/bakosadoda https://cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C4%8Cesk%C3%A1_Sibi%C5%99 https://www.kudyznudy.cz/aktivity/ceska-sibir-drsny-kraj-v-jizni-casti-milicinske ⚠️☢️☣️ Whatever the FORECAST predicts for Sunday (currently just overcast with 1-3 °C throughout the day), it is just a FORECAST.

I've always taken it just like weather talk. When it comes from the old guard, usually meant well, I guess, just like Gilgamesh, trying not to become irrelevant, I try to take it in with respect. Lately, however, there seems to be this new thing shaming people for the lack of particular brand name gear, often from people who have achieved nothing much and don't really have any experience, except talk. And I really detest that. Beginners need support. At the same time, however, please use common sense: the desert can get both really hot and really cold. You need enough water. It can get windy. Your feet need protection. You need to see. Hiking is in my political opinion supposed to be a free and inclusive activity and I don't want to burden your already strained budget: you can get decent gloves free (with coupon and a purchase: just buy something from the 99 cent section) at Harbor Freight, same goes for a free LED lamp. A good USB rechargeable headlamp starts from $9 on Amazon. The Columbia outlet sells the omni-heat hats for $15 and a coupon + student/military/veteran/teacher or just about any other ID card should push it to around $9. Walmart has hiking shoes for $29 that I put hundreds of miles on without incident, and so can you. 🤑 Petty CASH and other expenses: None, aside from the train tickets (148 CZK ow, less on a group ticket or if you have INkarta) As always: (🧿) Use common sense (🧿) Leave no trace behind (🧿) RSVP with integrity; I need this to decide if to drive or take trains (🧿) If you can't stay with the group either because you want to hike at ftL speeds or can't use your head, then you should hike by yourself or stay home. At the same time, however, hiking is not the construction of a nuclear power plant, but rather a natural activity for humans. If you really want to take it scientifically, the local library system has quite a few resources. You can start with McManners, H. (1998). Hiking (101 essential tips). ISBN 9780789427762 and take it from there. Don't microwave the cat: Please be aware that your Meetup organizers are not tour guides and are not park rangers.

A practical, down-to-earth workshop for people who want better friendships and more meaningful conversations in their daily life. We’ll explore: • how to get past small talk without oversharing • how to build trust naturally • how to stay yourself in conversation (even with new people) • how to understand what gets in the way of connection • how to communicate clearly and kindly • how to feel more confident socially Everything is experiential — no lectures, no theory for theory’s sake. You learn through safe, guided exercises in pairs and small groups. By the end, people usually walk away with more self-awareness, new communication tools, and the beginning of real, supportive friendships. A great fit for anyone who wants depth without drama, growth without pressure, and connection that feels natural and human.

Join us as we get the New Year started with one of the best films of the year: THE SECRET AGENT! This political thriller from Brazil is set in 1977 where a man flees from a mysterious past and returns to his hometown but soon finds the city is far from being the refuge he seeks. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: In 1977, a former professor flees from a mysterious past and returns to his hometown of Recife in search of peace. He soon realizes that the city is far from being the refuge he seeks. The film stars Wagner Moura, Carlos Francisco, Tânia Maria, Robério Diógenes, Maria Fernanda Cândido, Gabriel Leone and Udo Kier in his final film role. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UfrzDKrhEc BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The Secret Agent was the most awarded film at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival where it won Best Actor for Wagner Moura, Best Director for Mendonça Filho, the Art House Cinema Award and the FIPRESCI Prize. At this year’s Golden Globes, it became Brazil’s first film ever to be nominated for Best Film (Drama)! It also received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Foreign Film, a Best Actor nomination for Wagner Moura and was selected as Brazil’s entry for Best International Film at this year’s Academy Awards. The film is receiving an incredible 99% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics say, its “compelling script, impeccable acting, and striking 1970s aesthetic” make it “impossible to look away!” Critics say The Secret Agent is “one of the few standout movies of the year” and the Chicago Tribune calls it a “masterpiece of a film” and “the best film of the year!” PARKING: Close, convenient parking is available in the nearby garage (located between 9th and 11th, just off High St). Bring your ticket with you and have it validated at the theater and for $2, you’re covered for the night! PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime! With this being a limited release film, we’ll tentatively plan to see it at the Gateway, but location may change based on where it is showing and the showtimes available. Once details are confirmed, advance ticket is advised. Once you have yours, please list your seat number in the Comments section of this event. Showtime, location and complete details will be confirmed and announced as the date gets closer. Happy New Year and look forward to seeing you there, Dan

Wouldn’t it be nice to find a way to overcome your feelings of anger so that you not only control them, but you no longer have the urge to lose your temper in the first place? And how about being able to shake off resentments, persistent annoyance, or even feelings of vengeance? We’d like to invite you to an event on how to overcome anger and resentment. We will show you why people have trouble controlling their temper and where resentment comes from. Flaring anger can ruin a meeting, a relationship, an opportunity, or just about any aspect of life. Worst of all, outbursts towards our family can create hurt that lingers throughout a lifetime. You want to have a civil conversation, and you’ve vowed that you wouldn’t lose your temper, but a few minutes later, the anger flares up. Maybe you’ve realized that being angry doesn’t get you what you want so you internalize it. Or maybe you avoid the knockdown, drag-out fights, but stewing in resentment is exhausting and takes an emotional toll. In this event we show you how to get to the root of your anger so that it stops being an issue to you. You’ll also learn why people harbor resentments and how to move on. Don't continue to struggle, make a difference in your life, and join us for this local event. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This Meetup is sponsored by your local Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center.
