This time we visit again the beautiful Theatre de Poche in Bois de la Cambre! After the show we can drink something and discuss at the cozy bar of the theater. [informations](https://poche.be/show/2025-le-long-chemin-du-retour) [Ticket](https://shop.utick.net/?pos=POCHE&module=ACTIVITYSERIEDETAILS&s=1CDA7DC4-DB97-49B3-46D3-282B2CC97A46) Nick et Tom reviennent à la maison après avoir fait la guerre d’Afghanistan. En apparence ils vont bien. Mais ils ont ramené avec eux quelques souvenirs encombrants : les fantômes de soldats en mission envahissent leur quotidien, troublant les retrouvailles en famille, perturbant leurs jours et leurs nuits, s’immisçant dans les tâches ménagères, et leurs tentatives d’oublier ce qu’ils ont vu... Le Long Chemin du retour permet d’ouvrir la réflexion tant sur les dégâts collatéraux des guerres se profilant à nos portes, que sur une certaine attirance pour la violence.

Making new friends in a new city doesn’t need to be a struggle at all.

The **Women Coding Community (WCC)** is wrapping up our Java Bootcamp with a high-energy, hands-on **Hack Hour** session. This isn't just a presentation—it's a community coding event where we build the future of our platform together. ***The Theme: "Building for the Community"*** We are focusing on practical Java projects that directly support the **Women Coding Community** mission. Whether you are a beginner focusing on core Java or an intermediate developer ready for Spring Boot, we have a path for you. **Choose your approach:** **\- The Architect:** Come with a specific Java project idea and your initial implementation. Use this time to pair program with mentors to solve bugs or add features. **\- The Catalyst:** Just bring an idea! Connect with other attendees, form a team on the spot, and spend the evening coding a prototype with us. ***AI Tools in Practice: Accelerate Your Java Development*** We'll explore how AI assistants can accelerate your Java learning and development. Live demos and discussion covering: • Using Claude, ChatGPT, and JetBrains AI for debugging and code generation. • Best practices for prompting AI when learning a new language • What to trust, what to verify, and when to push back on AI suggestions • Comparing tool strengths for different Java use case ***Project Inspiration*** All ideas are centered around enhancing the **WCC ecosystem**. Pick a level that challenges you: **Basic: Core Java & CLI Tools** * **WCC Member Directory:** Build a command-line tool to manage member profiles (name, skills, location) using Java Collections and File I/O. * **Event Attendance Tracker:** Create a system to track check-ins for our meetups using the Java Date/Time API. * **Coding Challenge Generator:** Develop a tool that randomly selects Java exercises for members to practice. **Intermediate: Spring Boot & APIs** * **WCC Job Board:** Create a REST API for members to post and filter tech opportunities. * **Community Blog Platform:** Build a backend that supports Markdown posts and author profiles for WCC contributors. * **Skill-Tracking Dashboard:** Develop a platform for members to track their learning journey and visualize progress. *Mentors will be on hand throughout the evening to guide you through the vibe coding process, answer questions, and help you get unstuck.* **To join register here: [Java Bootcamp Form](https://forms.gle/kw7fgyvwzwxsZPFX7)** **Schedule — March 13th, 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM (London Time)** **•** **AI Tools Showcase:** Claude vs. ChatGPT vs. JetBrains AI.

**Cinema Galeries : En Construcción** 14/03 @ 18h45 PORTRAITS Work in Progress (En Construcción) is a portrait of people and of a neighbourhood. The film’s characters are builders working on a new building in the Raval, and the residents of this symbolic historical neighbourhood of Barcelona. Throughout the film, Guerin focuses on their faces and gestures, on how they speak and on how they occupy spaces. The composition of the shots is fundamental to his portrayal of the characters. The streets and spaces of the Raval, a popular working classneighbourhood in the city centre undergoing gentrification, are the other characters of the film. CONVERSATION AND THE POWER OF WORDS Through words, people with very different life stories and origins truly get to know each other: they listen to each other and they talk to each other. During the building work they learn to understand each other, to work together, to pass on their skills and to forge friendship. This sequence takes place when both the construction work and the film are coming to an end, and the viewer feels that a community has been created which connects the workers, local residents and also the film crew. Words are also often the means by which characters often become memorable for us, allowing us as viewers to learn to know and love them. WORK This is a film about work. It is about the builders working on the building, but also the filmmaker, Guerin and his student film crew, working to create a film over the two years during which they filmed the construction of the building. In this image, the builders are involved in the manual work of building a window. In the same way, the filmmaker uses the camera to create another window, the frame, to compose each shot in a meaningful way. Thus the construction of the building, brick by brick, progresses in parallel to the film, shot by shot. When the building is completed, so is the film. THE WINDOW AND THE FRAME WITHIN A FRAME The windows connect the outdoors and the indoors, the homes and the neighbourhood. Through the windows, the new building is incorporated into and visually connected with the neighbourhood, so that the interiors (the private spaces of homes) are linked with the exterior (the city). While Guerin uses his shots to create frames or visual windows showing the architecture, the shots are also transparent windows for seeing and documenting the life and reality of the neighbourhood. It is a visual idea of pictorial tradition that is characteristic of many of the film’s shots: the frame within a frame. In this photogram it is expressed by means of the connection between the foreground, showing the builders inside the building, and another frame in the middle distance: the window showing the façade of the church of Sant Pau del Camp. PRESENT AND PAST Different layers of time and history are brought together in a single image: the new construction of the building still in progress, the church which is still standing after eleven centuries, and even further away, other buildings from the 20th century. This gives a glimpse of a neighborhood, in which many different eras, cultures and origins coexist. And one of the main themes of the film is highlighted: the passing of time, the contrast between the stable and the transitory, the tension between construction and destruction, and memory and loss.

One of the most valuable parts of this community is the opportunity to think out loud with other product professionals. This session is built for exactly that. As we wrap up the quarter, it’s a great time to pause and reflect. What’s on track? What needs adjustment? Where could a small shift create bigger impact? Join fellow product professionals for a focused, interactive conversation designed to help you recalibrate for the next quarter. You’ll have the opportunity to share where you are, hear how others are thinking through similar challenges, and gain fresh perspective you can bring back to your team and organization. We’ll gather at 8:00AM, with discussion starting promptly at 8:15AM. 📍 First Watch - 7227 N High St Located in: The Shops at Worthington Ample parking is available. Food and beverages will be available for purchase. Start your morning with clarity and connection — we hope to see you there! ☀️

Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations. 
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that. We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus. 
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn. 
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play. 
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders… 
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords… 
IMPORTANT: 
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for. 
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.

Our monthly meeting will be Sunday March 15th 1-4 PM This will be held at 4049 Garrett W Dr, Columbus, 43214 This is off of Olentangy River Rd, north of Riverside Hospital. This is the home of one of our members. Everyone is welcome - beginner to expert. This is a casual folding session. People will teach a few models.
