Fedora Presentation and F10 Release Party / InstallFest Event Reports

I have had a pretty busy past week so please forgive me if I am a little late in reporting these.

—————————————
On Monday December 8th, 2008 I gave a Fedora presentation at ITT Technical Institute in Harrisburg PA to 2 different groups of students throughout the day (the overall total was around 55 or 60). The entire group consisted of Multi-Media, Programming, Criminal Justice and Networking students. ITT Technical Institute already is utilizing Fedora in their Networking curriculum (currently Fedora 8). My presentation was geared mainly towards how students could build experience and a work portfolio while going to school by contributing to Fedora as well as some of the new features of F10 and I also did a small presentation on the XO and OLPC program.

I had the pleasure of attending the CPOSC event this past Sunday with Jon Stanley and Yaakov Nemoy.

The Fedora booth was in a prime location (right at the entrance) and received a lot of exposure.

OLF and FADNA Summary

After attending my very first OLF I must admit I was really impressed. I am not going to comment on any of the presentations as I spent almost all of my time at the Fedora booth but I will focus on what I experienced and my thoughts.

OLF was well manned by various Fedora Ambassadors (13 to be exact) which made handling a crowd of roughly 1000 people very easy. I met and spoke with people across the board, everyone from families (including their young children) to Linux Var’s.

PDE5 inhibitors are a good choice for men at any age who are in good health and who do not have conditions that preclude taking them.

However, PDE5 inhibitors are not suitable for everyone. Men who take nitrate drugs for angina, or certain types of alpha-blockers for high blood pressure and benign prostatic hyperplasia, should not take PDE5 inhibitors. The PDE5 inhibitors are less effective in men with diabetes and in men who have been treated for prostate cancer.

Men with the following conditions should not take PDE5 inhibitors without the recommendation of their doctors and even then should use them with caution.
