For a closer view Mouse-click the individual posters. Sometimes there are mouseovers, so check...if you're into that sort of thing. If you're interested in movie or Theater times their posters are hyperlinked to their respective schedules.

Come out to the Thurston County Fairgrounds on Monday night and get 3 hours of great information on new and exciting technologies from Microsoft and other sources. Adam Kinney will present information on Silverlight 2.0. Woody Pewitt will talk about Internet Explorer 8 and the Code Trip Bus Cam. Jason Mauer will take us Under the Hood of the code Trip, explaining the technologies used on the bus and on the website. Thousands of dollars worth of software will be given away from Infragistics (NetAdvantage for .NET), Telerik (RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX, RadControls for WinForms, Telerik Reporting,Sitefinity CMS), Identity Mine (Blendables Essentials Mix) and copies of CodeRush by Devexpress. Along with all of that goodness, there will be some foam Code Trip Buses and Code Trip Laptop sleeves given away. Free stuff and free high quality presentations -- you don't want to miss this. To answer a question posed by some of you, sorry, no food this time, but grab something on the way out to the fairgrounds and stuff your face while while Jason, Woody and Adam stuff our brains full of new and shiny information.

Join us for an evening of musical acoustic insurgency with David Rovics, Danny Kelly and Mark Eckert. This will be a benefit for Carlos Arredondo who made national news after hearing that his twenty-year-old son Marine Lance Corporal Alexander Arredondo was killed in Iraq. In his distraughtness after learning of his son’s death, Carlos lit himself on fire, but has since recovered from his wounds and become an anti-war activist and speaker. Carlos is a member of Gold Star Families for Peace along with Cindy Sheehan. An interview with Carlos by Amy Goodman is located here: http://www.democracynow.org/2007/3/13/the_endless_war_memorial_father_of David Rovics has been called the musical voice of the progressive movement in the US. Amy Goodman has called him “the musical version of Democracy Now! He has shared the stage regularly with leading intellectuals (Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn), activists (Medea Benjamin, Ralph Nader), politicians (Dennis Kucinich, George Galloway), musicians (Billy Bragg, the Indigo Girls), and celebrities (Martin Sheen, Susan Sarandon). He has performed at dozens of massive rallies throughout North America and Europe and at thousands of conferences, college campuses and folk clubs throughout the world.
