We are pleased to announce the monthly "Five Minutes of Fame", scheduled for this Thursday, June 18th, at 8pm at Noisebridge. Bring yourself, your friends, your pet alien, and ping pong balls to throw at the speakers. This month we will be introducing a couple new surprises that should make things really fun.

All speakers have been notified, and the current schedule is as follows*:

"Security in 'the Cloud'" (John Menerick)
"Conversation: A Fun and Challenging Game for Two Or More!" (Turkshead)
"You can't do that in Python!" (Jonathan Foote)
"'It's a @#$% toilet!' - A brief look at Marcel Duchamp" (aestetix)
"Event Probability - Compatibility Prediction for Social Gathering" (John Magolske)
"Nextbus' Datafeed" - (Jeffrey)
"5 minutes of Pyweek." (Harry Tormey)
"Python-scripting Poser for Pseudo-3D in Flash" (Bill Nye)
"Journalism is D00000000med" (Alex Handy)


Additionally, Michael Kan Kan (of tinkerhack.com) will be hosting a science fair after the talks demonstrating some projects he has been working on.

I want to extend thanks to all the speakers, but especially all the people who have been showing up and make this event a success. Without all of you, it would not be able to happen.
