We are a group of men that meet weekly. Regular attendees do not always RSVP but we usually have 12 men present. Expect a frank and confidential space where you can speak personally, engage in interesting conversations or get support for your personal goals. **We start our meeting at 7:15 sharp. You can rsvp via meetup or email Saul (sauljoy@gmail.com) for this week’s address.** Guests are welcome but it's pretty casual so make sure you are expected in case we move outdoors to the park. Our group is part of Mentor Discover Inspire (MDI) The MDI Mission: To cause greatness by mentoring men to live with excellence and, as mature masculine leaders, create successful families, careers and communities.

**TAROT SALON** **Transform Your Life Through Tarot and Intuition** **Personal growth for women in an intimate small-group setting.** Join a warm and supportive circle of women for self-discovery, insight, and meaningful conversation. In this intimate salon, we will explore subconscious patterns, gain clarity on challenges and opportunities in our lives, and discover fresh perspectives through guided discussion and tarot. I am an experienced tarot card reader and certified transformational life coach. Prior to my coaching practice, I served as a Superintendent of Schools, a role that involved leadership, management of intense situations, coaching and facilitating. Over many years of working with staff and with clients, I have learned that lasting change begins when we become aware of the beliefs, habits, and assumptions that operate beneath the surface of our conscious minds. We will begin with introductions and a thought-provoking question. Participants will have the opportunity to reflect, share, explore insights and select tarot cards for deeper reflection. Each gathering is unique, but the goal is always greater clarity, self-awareness, and personal growth. During each gathering, participants will explore thought-provoking questions, share insights in a safe and confidential environment, and experience how tarot can reveal perspectives that might otherwise remain hidden. The cards often point us toward possibilities we may not have consciously considered, yet which can lead to meaningful growth and positive change. This is not a fortune-telling event. It is an opportunity to connect with yourself more deeply, learn from the experiences of other women, and explore what may be ready to emerge in your life. Together we will create a compassionate, respectful circle where honesty is welcomed, confidentiality is honoured, and every participant is encouraged to discover her own answers. Some women may attend a few sessions and leave with valuable insights they can apply independently. Others may choose to continue their journey through ongoing participation in the salon or through one-on-one transformational coaching. The choice is entirely yours. **Details** · Five women participants with Jan facilitating TUESDAY, 2:00 –4:00 p.m. (twice monthly) · Tuesday, June 16 · $25.00 per session, payable in cash · Streetsville, Mississauga · Exact address provided upon registration I look forward to meeting you and to exploring what your inner wisdom may be ready to reveal. It’s going to be a journey!

**Are third spaces dead....(like this book club was for the last year)?** Short-Read Socials are back! Come meet with like-minded and unlikeminded people to talk about the topic of the month. This time, we're thinking about **third spaces, socialization, and community-building.** *How has socialization changed with modern urban living and the rise of social media? Have commercialization and high cost of living killed third spaces? How do (or should) we actually build communities now?* \-\-\- **How does it work?** * The event is casual. You can talk to anyone there with or without our prompt sheets, either about the month's topic or about whatever you want. * Open philosophical discussion, including for controversial topics, is welcome but be respectful :) * If you've read/watched/heard anything related to the topic of the month, feel free to bring it in! Not necessarily physically, but you can if you want... * If not, here are some thought-provoking reads to start you off (read as many or as few as you want): * On third spaces: * [Are commercial “third places” a dying breed?](https://spacing.ca/toronto/2024/04/26/are-commercial-third-places-a-dying-breed/) * [the modern third space is in your phone](https://maansiwritesstuff.substack.com/p/the-modern-third-space-is-in-your) * Who's creating third spaces?

**BRING YOUR COMPUTERS TO THIS EVENT! And check out the prerequisites below.** Join us for the first hands-on lab session, snacks, and discussion! This time around instead of talks we are going to run a free hands-on lab on how to get started with OpenTelemetry. We'll teach you how to run your own local observability stack and how to capture telemetry from the host all the way to the application layer. **Repository** https://github.com/grafana/grafanacon2026-opentelemetry-instrumentation **Prerequisites** * Git * Docker and Docker Compose — or Podman with the `docker compose` CLI, see [PODMAN.md](https://github.com/grafana/grafanacon2026-opentelemetry-instrumentation/blob/main/PODMAN.md) for setup Pull all Docker images at home before the session to avoid slow WiFi at the event: git clone https://github.com/grafana/grafanacon2026-opentelemetry-instrumentation cd grafanacon2026-opentelemetry-instrumentation docker compose pull docker compose up --build The first build downloads images and compiles both services — it can take several minutes. Once images are cached, rebuilds are fast. See [TROUBLESHOOTING.md](https://github.com/grafana/grafanacon2026-opentelemetry-instrumentation/blob/main/TROUBLESHOOTING.md) in the repository if you hit issues. **Again special thanks to Nokia and Mark Prosser for hosting us at their downtown office.** **Agenda:** 6:00-6:15 PM: Arrivals and introductions 6:15-7:40 PM: Hands-On Lab 7:40-8:00 PM: Q&A, networking and wrap up **Facilitators:** Nikola Grcevski and Marylia Gutierrez

We meet at lunch each week and each meeting follows a fairly organized agenda. First all participants pass their business cards around. Then each member and guest is invited to give a one-minute overview of their company and what is a perfect referral for the week. We always have a 10 minute presentation from one of the members about their business in more detail. And finally we pass referrals. You're welcome to visit. Nobody is ever put on the spot. Bring plenty of cards!
