“Yes,” he blurted. “Do it again!”
She sighed, put the gag back in his mouth and reached down to reset the vibrating masturbation toy that his cock and balls were crammed into. The device had been expensive, but well worth it. In the weeks since they’d all begun having sex together, the boy’s cock had continued to grow along with his balls. At last measurement, he was
nearly ten inches long and his testicle sack had ballooned to the size of a grapefruit. His libido had increased in equality with his physical growth. By this point even the three of them together were not able to keep him satisfied, but Loren refused to bring in anyone else. So they’d purchased a sort of male milking device that was battery operated and each evening they’d hook him up and wring his balls dry.
As it turned out, he liked being held down. One afternoon he requested they tie him up and watch as they milked him. The decided to do it naked so he could see them – so he’d be even hornier. And as he cock erupted, as usual, they were naked on the couch and eagerly awaiting the rain of semen that launched in their direction.

One minute he was standing there watching her jog in place and the next he was yanking her pants off on the couch that lined the wall of his office. In seconds, he was burying his nearly eight inch long dick inside her pussy – a pussy that wasn’t nearly as tight or difficult to get into as he expected.
She pushed him back and then crawled atop him. She took control and was riding him like a pro. He leaned back and enjoyed the show for exactly three minutes till he exploded inside of her. Luckily for him, she reached her peek just as he did or it would have been embarrassing to say it mildly.

To shut him up, she suddenly yanked hard at the side of her shirt and popped all the remaining buttons at once and cast off the garment before he could utter another word.
He gasped.
She’d gotten fat. Very fat.
Her tits were no longer D’s…not DD’s even, but had to be pushing E-cups. They were the size of large cantaloupes – probably eighteen inches in diameter or bigger – and they hung nearly to her navel. Below them, her fat belly poured over the top of her hip-hugger jeans along with two immense lovehandles off to either side. His mouth dropped open in utter disbelief at what he was seeing.
“I weigh one fifty,” she informed him. “I was one fifteen the first day of school – you remember that day, right? My little whoopsy in the locker-room? Course I only had little tiny, double-DD cups then…and now look how big they are?”
“What have you done?”
“Ate a lot of junkfood,” she replied with a giggle. “Can you tell?”

Loren couldn’t believe the scrawny ass girl had sucked up Eric’s entire cock without the slightest of problem or even hesitation. As she stared on in awe, the girl began bouncing up and down on his lap. After a short period, the ferocity of her movements began to increase until she was literally hoping up high enough to reveal four or five inches of his cock before cramming it back inside herself.
In minutes, she was lifting herself up on her feet so that she was able to ride even more of it. By this point, she was practically standing completely upright and then dropping back down onto him until her ass slapped his knees. This unreal sex continued until she witnessed semen spurting out of her daughter’s pussy during one of the high-end bounces. Then with each subsequent pump, more spooge erupted from her until the chair’s seat beneath them was all but covered in white semen.

She was amazed the girl could take it. The boy’s cock was ridiculous and Shelly’s torso was thin and bony. Her pussy on the other hand must have been bottomless. As Whitney sat watching in awe, the girl sucked up at least eight inches of his dick inside of her pussy and then began bouncing on it…slow at first…and then she began to build into a vigorous jumping motion atop his lap.
She could see his balls every time the girl’s ass went up and they were flopping frantically beneath her.
“Shit, Shelly! What in the hell--”
“AHHHHH…oh shit…oh fuck I can’t…I can’t…AHHH!” the girl began muttering and blurting randomly. Her jumping speed intensified and it look like for a moment she might beat the boy down into the seat, but in moments she shouted a long and drawn out syllable and collapsed onto the seat next to him. Her legs were spread – her pussy gaping and pouring semen from it.

These are the notes from the [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Category:Meeting_Notes The 479th Meeting of Noisebridge]. Date: 10/10/2017

Note-taker: [[User:nthmost]]

Moderators: [[User:nthmost]]

* '''NB meetings can be fun. Let's keep the elevator repaired!'''

== Meeting Summary ==

TLDR what happened at the meeting:
* Announcements: Haskell Class starting Oct 18th (every 1st and 3rd Wednesday). Cryptobuilders workshop every 2nd and 4th Wednesday.
* Finances: ???
* New members: nope but we should contact Merlin and let her know she's at 4 weeks!
* New philanthropists: nope
* Consensus Items: Elevator Repair Fund
* Discussion Items: people lost interest and went to the Internet Archive at this point.

[[Noisebridge_Vision|what Noisebridge is about]]:
<blockquote>Noisebridge is a 501c3 nonprofit that provides a space for creation, collaboration, and learning about technology and creative projects. Noisebridge provides space, power tools, and infrastructure to help the public learn new skills and create cool things. Noisebridge continues to exist through and depends entirely on membership fees and donations. Our code of conduct is 'Be excellent to each other'.</blockquote>

Something says, "See, this is why meetings don't happen, because everyone knows what Noisebridge is."

= Introductions =

* Marco -- Building a search engine for Code Learning resources, UX design, traveling between Berlin and SF.
* Dang -- Founding member of HACKER CLUB consisting of just ME. What are we talking about? I'm just workjing on signing some documents.
* Augur -- You all know me as Augur. I hack on shit, like the laser cutter and I teach laser cuttering things. Soon to teach a Haskell class.
* Nthmost -- i like to take meetings notes
* Kyle -- I'm not even here, but you skipped Nick. No that's just a statement of fact.
* Nick -- I travel around looking for insecure wifi without passwords to hack. And I'm printing stuff.
* Michael -- I teach at Cogswell college, a VR class in Santa Clara. We need wizards for the Singularity.
* Alex -- I do Gamebridge U on Tuesdays, making the Internet Archive into its own VR version.
* Juan -- I hack. I am a cyberwizard. Not yet a lizard.
* Paul -- I go by Schwifty. I make things, a lot of things out of plastics. Flowers, expanding foam, bouncy balls. Sometimes skateboards. 3D modeling, trying to sew.
* grey (グレェ) -- Just started working with the MADE. Starting to do inventory on 1000s of games. Like to go to other hackerspaces like Sudo Room

= Short announcements and events =
* Augur -- starting Oct 18th and every other Wednesday (1st and 3rd, opposite cryptobuilders) -- Haskell Class at 8pm. On Slack it's #haskell-class
* Cryptobuilders workshop in Hackitorium 2nd and 4th Wednesday. Alt currency, pizza, meet and greet.
* Schwifty -- I really am going to make Club Mate. [Something about dry ice and straining.] I AM gonna do it but you guys should be on the lookout for a metal strainer and metal bowl, 4" to 8" diameter.

= Safe Space =

* Augur: We want NB to be as welcome as possible. It's excellent if a person told they are being unexcellent for being inconsiderate is willing to stop that conversation. We have an Ask to Leave policy that may be applied when people aren't responsive to being politely asked to stop bothering.

= Participation =

Augur: If you want to do stuff at Noisebridge, come do stuff at Noisebridge! (And be Excellent while you are doing so!)

= [[Philanthropist|Philanthropists]]=

[Augur checks the binder, no new applications.]

= [[ Membership Binder ]] =

Augur: Membership is a bit more responsibility. You can block Consensus items and grant RFID tokens.

Merlin: 4 checks ... hasn't been here in a while. [I'll let her know! --nthmost]
Nicole: 2 checks
Lady Red: 3 checks

= Financial Report =
* Funds in bank: We dunno ATM, we'll ask Pemulis.
* Noisetor (See the bulletpoints at the bottom of http://noisetor.net/finances/#summary):

Nick: we should all be aware that the garbage guys won't take anything that's not in a trash can!!!

= Consensus =

* [[Consensus Process|a brief primer on consensus process]]

== [[ Consensus Items History | Proposals from last week ]] ==

''nope''

== [[ Current Consensus Items | Proposals for next week ]] ==

=== Elevator Repair Fund ===

'''Zach proposes that NB set aside $400 per year for the purpose of elevator repair costs. Any deductions from this fund can be recorded with receipts and sent to noisebridge-discuss or the Wiki'''

N: where does that number come from?

Z: A low number that will make people happy.

N: What have been our costs in the past?

Z: I did the repairs recently, those costs have been "not verty much"... Parts cost "quite low" because it's not fully fixed yet -- some crimps, a couple light bulbs, most of which was found in NB, but we need to replace significant parts of the gate. Henner might fabricate a new wooden panel. I feel like ppl should be compensated for their time in this.

N: historically we don't compensate for time...

J: This might fall under the existing equipment fund. We can consider the elevator something like infrastructure for the space.

A: Patrick commented 2 weeks ago that NB has had a policy of paying for things as infrastructure, it's just never been officially ratified. It may be too hazy that no one knows about it so we should make it more official as a consensus item.

Z: didn't know about the equipment fund. I do have to say, personally, I think the elevator should be under a different guideline as it's not a tool that makes NB cooler, it's something that prevents community members from entering the space.

N: Right, we have to be ADA accessible.

K: I'd feel cool about paying a pro, less good about paying NB people.

A: it's really the landlord's responsibility. We should build a device that convinces the landlord to fix it.

Alex: I support the elevator fund.

N: I suggest writing up this proposal a little more formally and then writing a bit about what it will take to get the elevator up to par in the coming months (or year). We usually post to the mailing list and discussion about it can happen either there or on the Slack.

Z: Cool.

She gasped. The fucker was at least eight inches long and had to be three or more inches across. It looked as thick as her wrist. The strangest thing was that it didn’t appear completely erect. Most hard-ons she’d witnessed had been hard and shiny looking all over but with him, only the head was bloated and shiny. The rest of his shaft seemed to still have loose skin around it. It also wasn’t standing straight upwards…but lay back against his lower stomach.
Hell, is he even fully hard? she wondered.
“Put your hand around it and pump up and down on it like this,” and she lifted her fist up and down a few times to show him what she meant. “Keep doing that.”
He complied with her instructions and wrapped his right hand around the girth of it and began to pull up and then down on it. After several such pumping motions, she realized she’d been right – that his dick wasn’t fully erect. As she watched, it grew thicker and longer – inflating like a fucking balloon. After a moment or two, the fucker was probably an inch longer and much fatter than it had started out.

Now that Shelly was sprouting huge tits though, it was making Whitney wonder when her sister actually moved to titty-town. In search of answers, she’d pilfered Loren’s high school yearbooks and discovered to her dismay that her sister was flat as a board until graduation. He seemed odd to say the least, but somehow she’d never gotten the gumption to really bring it up in conversation as of yet. She assumed that maybe her first pregnancy had been the catalyst for her breast expansion. Some women did that. It wasn’t that unusual. Her sister hadn’t really been all that plump in school either with the exception of a moderate sized gut and ass – certainly nothing near what she, herself, had.

So second day of school…here she sat with him in the truck waiting to pick up Shelly…Shelly who had also taken a growth spurt over the summer. Her tits had practically inflated like fucking balloons in a matter of weeks. When school had let out the previous year, she was wearing a B or C cup…and now that school had resumed, she was wearing a DD cup brassiere that her mother had to adjust the straps on. Her scrawny body wasn’t supposed to have tits that size. Bras big enough to cover her jugs were overly large in the shoulders and chest.

Where she used to pick on her little brother about his genitals, she now made sly innuendos and comments that left everyone slightly uncomfortable. For her age, she was disturbingly overt with her sexual thoughts and feelings.

“So he’s just got a gigantic bag of equipment? That’s what you’re telling me?”
“That’s what I’m telling you, Miss Porter. Was his father oversized? Any male relatives, even distant? Size is really a genetic determination and since I’ve found no disease or other linkable causes, I have to assume it’s just normal genetics.”
Loren had sighed long and hard before answering.
“No, his father was pretty average. Well I mean he had like eight inches and it was really fat…thick like,” and she blushed. “But on him it didn’t seem that monstrous. I mean he was like six foot five and nearly 300 pounds.”
“Well, Eric is about six inches flaccid at this point. So it’s not entirely outside the realm of possibility that he’ll simply grow into it. It may just be developing before the rest of him does. Give it time. And in the meantime, don’t hesitate to put a tape measure to it periodically and write down the numbers and if he starts having erections, have him masturbate. It’s all rather difficult to deal with I know, but it’s better for you to handle it than anyone else.”

IRS Response 2009 06

2017-11-06T23:46:42Z

51.15.82.2:

== Request ==
The IRS responded to our 501(c)3 application with a [http://web.hexapodia.org/~adi/noisebridge/irs-letter-2009-05.pdf request for additional information] (7MB PDF). We are responding as follows.

== Response Context ==

Our lawyer has asked us to focus on responses to Questions 2, 3,5, 7,8, and 10 from the IRS request for information. We met with her at 11AM on Friday 6 June 2009. Based on that meeting, we have the following TODOs:

0) (done) Write a short paragraph introducing Noisebridge and framing our contributions to the general public. For example, one possible framing is as an "independent community center with a focus on art and technology."

2) '''TODO''' Consolidate the verbiage in the response to avoid repetition, especially for all free activities.

3) '''TODO''' Directly address the issue of people living at the space, for example with meeting minutes where we discuss no one should live there or statements from people who have politely informed people that living in the space is not ok.

4) Clarify residency program
:'''TODO''' Give examples of previous people who would be potential residents, such as Enki and Thomas, including what they contributed to Noisebridge and the general public.
:'''TODO''' Clarify that stipend would be only travel expenses (well, talk about if that's what we want..?)

5) (done) Make sure ExCEL program advised NB is 501c3 pending, not yet 501c3 (this is DONE)

6) Demonstrate publicity is working to attract new people from general public to the space.
:'''TODO''' Collect fliers from Maker Faire.
:(done) Collect news articles.
:(done) Collect blog entries from middle school students
:'''TODO''' Give rough estimates of # new members not friends of existing members per month

7) Inventory issues
:(done) Check who is running inventory of books, other NB materials
:(done) Write paragraph clarifying how NB materials are not the same as individual members' project materials (see Question 10)

8) '''TODO''' Time matrix - make hours add up to 24 x 7 per week or account for overlapping activities

== Introductory Paragraph ==

Noisebridge is an independent community center that focuses on education in art and technology for the general public. Noisebridge is incorporated as a non-profit educational membership corporation for public benefit and run collectively by its members. Any member of the general public can come to Noisebridge to take advantage of infrastructure and collaboration opportunities for people interested in programming, hardware hacking, physics, chemistry, mathematics, photography, security, robotics, all kinds of art, and, of course, technology. Through talks, workshops, and projects we encourage knowledge exchange, learning, and mentoring. Since its founding in October 2008, Noisebridge has become home to a wide variety of classes offering free instruction in areas of art and technology. For example, Noisebridge offers free instruction on Mondays in the skill of soldering, which is a critical skill for building new electronics projects, Tuesdays has free instruction in the computer languages Python and Haskell, and Fridays has group study on the science of cryptography.

== Question 2: Time Matrix ==

== Question 2: Noisebridge Activities ==

=== 2.1 Circuit Hacking Monday ===

2.1.a The activity offers instruction in "soldering," which is a basic skill required to build electronics. The following extended description appears at the web page advertising the activity, available at
https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Circuit_Hacking_Mondays

"Learn to solder! Mitch will bring kits to make cool, practical, intriguing, hackable things that you can bring home after you make it. Of course, you can also bring your own projects to hack.

Anyone can learn to solder! Even if you have never made anything in your life, you can learn this very useful and enjoyable skill. It really is fun! Mitch has taught thousands of people to solder all around the world, and he can teach you, too! Add yourself to the ever increasing community!"

2.1.b The instructor is Mitch Altman. Altman's qualifications include being a founder of 3Ware, pioneering virtual reality research at VPL Research, and founding Cornfield Electronics. In addition, Mitch has run soldering teaching sessions at a variety of locations across the world. Mitch Altman is also a Noisebridge member, the Noisebridge treasurer, and a member of the Noisebridge board of directors. See his wikipedia entry at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitch_Altman

The instructor is responsible for teaching participants the skill of soldering. This skill is fundamental to building electronics.

The instructor's duties are to greet participants, then assesses each participant's current level of skill. The instructor then works with each participant to improve his or her soldering skills. Typically, this will be done by the participant completing a small project under the supervision of the instructor.

2.1.c The activity is conducted at the main Noisebridge facility, located at 83C Wiese Street, San Francisco, CA.

2.1.d The activity is conducted every Monday night from 8:30PM until participants agree to stop.

2.1.e The instructors deeply believe in teaching anyone who wants to learn the basic skills required to build electronics. No instructor receives a financial benefit or has any financial interest from the activity.

2.1.f The activity is part of a series of Noisebridge education activities that are open to the general public. As such, the activity is important to Noisebridge's mission and exempt purposes.

2.1.g Anyone may participate in the activity. In particular, participation is not limited to Noisebridge members.

2.1.h Anyone who shows up at the Noisebridge facility at 8:30PM on Monday night and wishes to participate in the activity participates. In the event that there are not enough materials or space to accomodate everyone, participation slots are allocated on a first come first serve basis.

2.1.i Participants may optionally buy kits containing parts required to build small electronic devices. Noisebridge charges only the cost of parts. Noisebridge offers different kits with a range of $7 to $25. Purchasing such a kit is not required for participation; participants may bring in their own electronics projects for soldering instruction.

During the activity, we also suggest donations to Noisebridge in the $3 to $5 range per person, but participation is encouraged even without such donations. All donations go directly to Noisebridge. No member of Noisebridge and no instructor of the activity receive any financial benefit from the activity.

2.1.k The event is free and readily accessible to the general public. As described in 2.1.i, participants may optionally buy kits containing parts for small devices and may optionally donate to Noisebridge, but there is no fee for participation.

Noisebridge advertises the event on the front page of its web site http://noisebridge.net. Instructors also send periodic reminders of the activity to electronic mailing lists run by Noisebridge and to other electronic mailing lists. Noisebridge has also advertised the event at Maker Faire 2009, a public event held 29 and 30 May 2009 at the San Mateo Fairgrounds, as part of a booth at the fair.

2.1.l The purpose of Noisebridge set out in its bylaws is

"The purpose of this corporation is to promote and encourage technical, scientific, and artistic skills through individual projects, social collaboration, and education. Also in the context of these purposes, the corporation shall engage in scientific, charitable and educational activities
within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, including but not limited to:
:(a). Through talks, classes, workshops, collaborative projects, and other activities, to encourage research, knowledge exchange, learning, and mentoring in a safe, clean space.
:(b). Provide educational spaces for teaching practical skills and theory of technology, science, and art.
:(c). Provide work space, storage, and other resources for projects related to art, science, and technology that will benefit the individual members' personal growth in their fields of interest, encouraging the individual members to share their projects and knowledge for the betterment of society through art, science and technology.
:(d). To create, learn, and teach, individually and as a group, inviting members of the community in the San Francisco Bay area and the world.
:(e). To develop, support the development of, and provide resources for the development of free and open source software and hardware for the benefit of society.
:(f). Collaboration across disciplines for the benefit of cultural, charitable, and scientific causes.
:(g). To foster, by all legal means, the common purposes of its participants.
:(h). To conduct or engage in all lawful activities in furtherance of the stated purposes or those incidental to them."

The activity furthers the exempt charitable purposes of Noisebridge by providing free instruction to the general public in basic skills required to create new electronics technology. This falls under paragraphs (a), (b), (d), (g), and (h) of the Noisebridge exempt purpose.

2.1.m Noisebridge dedicates 0% of total general funds to this activity. Specifically, no labor costs are involved in the activity because the instructor donates his time. Costs for parts are covered by the participants, either in the form of their own electronics projects or in the purchase of optional electronics kits. Noisebridge does pay for the rent of the facility used for this activity, but the rent money is not specifically earmarked for this activity.

2.1.n Some of the kits available for purchase during the activity are designed by Cornfield Electronics, which is a company founded by the instructor and Noisebridge treasurer Mitch Altman. Cornfield Electronics donates the design of the kits, including the list of parts required and instructions for assembly to the general public.

2.1.o See matrix of time attached.

=== 2.2 San Francisco Unified School District ExCEL Project (Pending Activity) ===

2.2.a Noisebridge recently partnered with Teach Me To Make to propose after-school instruction in basic electronics for children in the San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD). The proposal has been filed with the ExCEL program of SFUSD. Noisebridge is currently waiting for a response from the ExCEL program.

We have a page on the Noisebridge web site dedicated to this effort:
https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Sfusd_excel_program

The page links to a detailed proposal, including budget, to the SFUSD ExCEL program. The proposal is also attached to this response to the request for information.

2.2.b From the proposal:

"Our organizations [Noisebridge and Teach Me To Make] include a great many members covering a wide range of skills, experiences, and areas of expertise. While many may participate in the ExCEL program as guest speakers, a much smaller subset will be the formal instructional personnel.

Teachers are chosen on the basis of knowledge, interpersonal skills, and the ability to impart their knowledge to students in a clear, easy-to-follow manner. To participate in this program, teachers must show sensitivity to the needs and understanding of different students, and must be able to explain concepts in alternate ways appropriate to each students. Teachers must be patient, good listeners, and respectful." Please also see the attached proposal.

'''Qualification, Position descriptions, and duties for parties involved'''

* Lee Sonko - Coordinator and instructor. Lee has taught computer classes to adults children, he had held a substitute teacher certification in New Jersey, he has managed and owned businesses requiring coordination of activities.

* Michael Shiloh - Coordinator and instructor.

* J.D. Zamfirescu - Coordinator and instructor.

* Mitch Altman - Coordinator and instructor.

* Other members of Noisebridge - instructors.

2.2.c The activity will be conducted at local schools of the San Francisco Unified School District. Specific schools will be established if the proposal is accepted by the SFUSD.

2.2.d The time of the activity will be established jointly by Noisebridge, Teach Me To Make, and SFUSDif the proposal is accepted by the SFUSD.

2.2.e The Noisebridge members involved with the proposal have a deep and passionate commitment to teaching others basic electronic skills. In addition, the proposal includes financial compensation for time spent teaching. Please refer to the attached proposal budget for details.

2.2.f The activity forms part of Noisebridge's efforts at outreach to the general public. Because this activity will, if accepted by SFUSD, take Noisebridge's educational mission directly to children in their schools, the activity is significant.

2.2.g School children enrolled in participating schools within the SFUSD may participate.

2.15.o See attached time matrix.

== Question 3: Ownership of Noisebridge Lease ==

Our facility, 83C Wiese Street, San Francisco, CA is
owned by Ahuva Jolish, who is not a member of nor
affiliated in any way with Noisebridge. The facility
is leased to the organization. The lease for 83C
Wiese Street, San Francisco, CA is held by
Noisebridge. This is the only facility currently
associated with Noisebridge. All activities
mentioned in our response Question 2 are conducted
at 83C Wiese Street, except for the pending activity
with the San Francisco Unified School District ExCEL
program (section 2.2), which will take place at San
Francisco schools.

No member of Noisebridge has a direct or indirect
financial interest in the space. We did have a brief
period in October 2008 prior to the incorporation of
Noisebridge when the lease was in the name of
individual members. We immediately re-signed the
lease to transfer the lease to Noisebridge after
incorporation. The lease is now held by Noisebridge
alone.

== Question 5: Describe Residency Program ==

We do not currently offer a residency program, but we marked the box on the application because we hope to offer such a program in the future. When we do offer such a program, we envision that the program will consist of inviting an artist or technologist to visit the Noisebridge facility and interact with members of the general public. This interaction would consist of discussions with members of the public present at the Noisebridge facility and leading new activities at the space.

The resident would not live in the Noisebridge facility. Instead, the person would be housed by a Noisebridge member as part of the program, at no cost to Noisebridge or the person. Noisebridge would pay for the person's expenses and a small reasonable stipend for the person. The specifics of the reimbursement, lodging, and stipend will be determined if and when we offer such a residency program. We welcome suggestions for ways to improve this process.

== Question 7: Describe Oversight/Selection for Residency ==

As mentioned in the answer to question 5, we do not currently offer the residency program, but we hope to offer such a program in the future. When we do offer this program, we plan to select potential residents by recommendations from Noisebridge members or members of the general public brought up at Noisebridge general meetings. A committee of Noisebridge members would then review these recommendations, screen for the appearance of conflicts of interest, and make recommendations to the general membership. Noisebridge members would then come to a consensus about the selection of a resident to invite and the duration of the residency. We welcome suggestions for ways to improve this process.

=== Previous Visitors Who Exemplify Qualities Desired In Residents ===

This section describes people who have visited Noisebridge in the past on an informal basis, without any formal support of any kind from Noisebridge, and made significant contributions to the general public and to Noisebridge. Our residency program's goal would be to encourage future interactions of this type. The proposed residency program would make it possible for people like this to visit Noisebridge and lead activities in line with Noisebridge's mission.

Enki - Founder, metalab, specific expertise in running hacker spaces, pushed us to actually get a space, created Noisebridge Go activity, all kinds of other stuff.

Tom - Intern with Mitch, worked on electronics projects, experience with German hacker spaces

== Question 8: Describe Publication Activities ==

Noisebridge does not engage in any printed
publication activity. Noisebridge does publish videos of the "Five
Minutes of Fame" lightning talks held at Noisebridge
(see response 2.10 above) on YouTube. See
http://www.youtube.com/noisebridge

Noisebridge makes no charge for and derives no
income from this publication activity. Noisebridge acquires no rights in the presenters' work as part of this activity. Noisebridge
posts these videos to further the exempt purposes of
the "Five Minutes of Fame" talk series, as described
above, by making the talks available
to a broad public audience for no cost. All work required to create these videos was donated by Noisebridge members and volunteers.

== Question 10: Ownership In Name of Noisebridge ==

The Noisebridge facility and all common tools, equipment, and books are all held in the name of the Noisebridge organization. These tools, equipment, and books are labeled as property of Noisebridge to avoid confusion with private property of members of the general public that may be visiting the Noisebridge facility. Books held by Noisebridge are cataloged with a system created All donations made to the organization directly, not to individuals associated with the organization.

Noisebridge does provide shelves for the use of members of the general public or members of Noisebridge who are working on projects at Noisebridge. These shelves hold private property and are clearly labeled as separate from Noisebridge property.

“He’s simply got immense genitalia, Miss Porter,” the urologist had said. “There are a bevy of diseases and genetic problems that can cause this, but he’s got none of them that I can find. The only thing I can warn you against is possible Priapism.”
“What’s that,” Loren has asked him.
“Puberty is going strong with him, Miss Porter. When he starts having erections, if they remain unrelenting for too long it can cause problems – least of which can be the stretching of the penile tissue. Essentially, it can cause his penis to grow even larger. And if it develops into a recurring problem, we’ll have to go from there. Priapism can lead to serious issues including impotence.”

“Oh wait, I got the ball…let me shoot a three pointer,” she blurted and raised her arms in a mock attempt to do so. She jumped then – completely off the floor – and her breasts leaped with her. When her feet touched down a heartbeat later, her mammary bags lurched hard and continued gyrating even after she’d stopped moving. Her t-shirt had also worked its way up in the front so far that her belly was now visible. “And so…you really want me playing basketball out there…in front of boys?”
He was dumbfounded…shocked…unable to speak.
“Uhh,” he stuttered. “Okay…valid point.”

“Fuck her…fuck the shit out of her,” Stacy blurted uncontrollably as she lunged forward and wrapped herself around the boy from behind…her hands snaking around to his front side…low to his fat genitals. As her hands tightened around the base of his shaft, she realized just how unbelievably massive it was. Even with both hands at the same time, her fingers would not meet around its girth. It felt unnatural,
much like the elephant trunk she’d compared it to earlier…only it had huge bloated ridges where massive veins bulged through its angry red flesh.

“Jack? Jack are you alright?” Stacy called to him as she hesitantly approached him. “Jack say something!”
He turned to look at her and then twisted his head back to stare at the thing on the couch and as she watched, his cock began to swell into a grotesque erection that protruded at least two foot away from his body. The head of his dick ballooned into something the size of a baseball and when it’d reached full firmness, he stepped quickly toward the couch and inserted the ghastly appendage deep into Katy’s form.
As Stacy stood and watched in dismay, Jack began to fuck the ever-living Hell out of her daughter…or what looked like her daughter.

Maybe you should go away?

His penis hung down now far past his knees now. It had to be at least a foot and half long and that was flaccid. At least as thick as his forearm, it swung from side to side like an elephant’s trunk as he walked inside and slammed the door shut behind him.

It is probably not hyperbolic to state that San Francisco has a housing crisis. Despite a general sympathy and frustration with the shortcomings of capitalism, unfortunately Noisebridge simply does not have the resources to address all these issues - either to function an adequate homeless resource center, nor remain a conducive environment for others to hack while doubling as a shelter. We want you to come to Noisebridge, but we also want you to have a place to call your own, and to be able to get to and from there safely.

“Oh fuck…oh fuck,” she gasped through dry lips as she spread her thighs to accommodate the ridiculously oversized girth of her mammoth belly. “Ohhhh…oh fuck,” her gasping increased into a near scream…and that, in turn, roared into a full fledged shriek as fluid burst from her pussy and spilled out onto the roadway beneath her.
“Noooo…get out…get out of me…NOOOOOO!” her words exploded into a horrifying scream once more as she leaned back and involuntarily thrust her hips upward…and a movement of some nature erupted from her vagina. It felt as though something were snaking out of her…something long and hideous…something not human.

DELETE EVERYTHING BELOW THIS LINE WHEN YOU POST THE MEETING MINUTES KTHX!!!

= Instructions =

Congratulations and/or condolences! You're reading this because you're participating in a meeting of Noisebridge!

Meetings should be limited to an hour when possible. Shorter is fine, but avoid rushing.

You should read this instructional section thoroughly, and treat them as a guideline for how to host a meeting of Noisebridge. There are three ingredients to an [[Excellent]] meeting: A number of note takers, some facilitators, and participants.

Meetings are just one of the tools used at Noisebridge to create net forward progress on whatever it is we're all trying to do. Meetings aren't the only way to make decisions or have discussions, and in fact its usually a much better idea to talk about things outside the meeting before dragging the entire community kicking and screaming into it.

== Note Takers ==
# Confirm last meeting was saved
# Take new notes
# Save and share the notes at the end of the meeting (instructions at the bottom).

== Facilitators ==

There are generally two kinds of facilitator roles at a Noisebridge meeting:

* Stack taker - Useful when a lot of folks want to hop on the discussion stack. This gives everyone a turn to have their feelings heard. Usually only works when there is exactly one stack taker.
* Moderators - Keeps the meeting moving and prevents everyone from wasting too much time on one subject. Anyone is free to pick up moderation and move the meeting along.

In general, moderators should:
* Understand the structure of Noisebridge [[consensus|decision-making]]
* Make sure everyone gets a chance to speak.
* Speak only minimally yourself.
* Keep the meeting moving, and avoid getting bogged down.
* Identify discussion items, arrange times limits for talking about each item.
* Identify and summarize consensus, suggest things that need to be done.
* '''Get the [[membership binder]] and ensure that it is returned safely.'''

== Participants ==

Everyone at a Noisebridge meeting who has consented to participating in one is a participant!

* Say your name before you talk.
* Remain on-topic, and speak as concisely as possible.
* Assist the note-taker with any links or corrections that are needed.
* Remain respectful of other participants, their time, and the consensus and moderation process.

Noisebridge is a safe space. '''Invite a volunteer to describe''' what that means.

Some specific points you might prompt the group to touch on, if it doesn't happen naturally:
* What to do if you feel uncomfortable.
* Noisebridge strives to be radically inclusive. What does that mean?
* Noisebridge has an antiharassment policy. What does that mean?

= Participation =

* If there are no objections, they're a philanthropist! Their pledge should be handed over to the [[Secretary]] posthaste, after which their token will be updated to give them the 24/7 access they've earned(?)

= [[ Membership Binder ]] =

* '''Invite a knowledgeable volunteer to describe''' [[membership]], and the application process.
<blockquote>Being a member of Noisebridge is not like being a member of a gym or your local chess club. Anyone can come to Noisebridge to hack and learn: you don't need to be a member for that. At Noisebridge, membership is something different: it means taking responsibility and committing to help to maintain, improve, and govern Noisebridge. As a member of Noisebridge, you don't just come here to hack and learn, you actively work to improve what you see around you, help to deal with problems, and make this community and space better than it is today.</blockquote>
* Read off any names from the binder for the past month. Mark down a check or other indicator on every open application to keep track of how many weeks they've been read out.
* Anyone eligible to join this week should
** introduce themselves,
** answer any questions members may have for them, then
** leave the area in search of gifts (traditionally beer and a lime, or cookies) for the rest of the group.
* The rest of the meeting should reach consensus on whether they may join.
* Remember to applaud new members when they return.

= Financial Report =

* It is important that everyone in attendance understands at least:
** Blocking with verbalized principled objections.
** Why we use consensus over other approaches to decision making.
** How consensus isn't a legislative process
** Why consensus isn't applicable to some things like conflict resolution, resolution of time sinks, and the like.

In the darkness, she felt something touching…nay, weighing down on the tops of her thighs. She reached with her hands to touch it…and her fingers encountered skin…her own skin…her tits, in fact.
She jerked backwards and realized how heavy her chest felt…
OH FUCK…OH FUCK…
Her hands squeezed and then began to feel around… and seconds ticked by as she used her palms and fingers to navigate around the sheer massive bags of flesh that hung from her chest.
Noooo…no that’s not possible…my titties are not that big…this is crazy…it’s fucking crazy dammit!
Her heart was racing…sweat was beading on her forehead and between her tits…oh fuck…even under her tits! She leaned forward and nearly screamed as she realized her nipples were touching the cold wood surface of the floor.

__NOEDITSECTION__[[Image:Noisebridge_soldering.jpg|thumb|right|180px|Learning by doing!]]
[[Image:Evocell_ecoli15.png|thumb|right|180px|Do cool stuff!]]
[[Image:Noisebridge_at_night.jpg|thumb|right|180px|Interact with interesting people!]]
Noisebridge is a space for sharing, creation, collaboration, research, development, mentoring, and of course, learning. Noisebridge is also more than a physical space; it's a community with roots extending around the world.

<blockquote>
For we're excellent to each other here 
We rarely ever block 
We value tools over pre-emptive rules 
And spurn the key and the lock. 
       — Danny O'Brien, 2010-11-09 general meeting notes
</blockquote>

''We make stuff. So can you.''

== The Idea ==

Noisebridge is an educational non-profit corporation, 501(c)3 public charity status.

We provide infrastructure and collaboration opportunities for people interested in programming, hardware hacking, physics, chemistry, mathematics, security, robotics, all kinds of art, and, of course, technology. Through talks, workshops, and [[projects]] we encourage knowledge exchange, learning, and mentoring.

As a space for artistic collaboration and experimentation, we are open to most types of art - with a special emphasis on the crossover of art and technology. From hardware labs to electronics and sound labs, most things that're creative are most definitely welcome.

Many interesting things happen in the space. We've found that sharing is essential to making this work. We strive to begin from a point of respect and trust. We believe it builds a safe community and that this best fosters innovation and creation.
Our motto is "Be excellent to each other." We also have writings on [[community standards]] and an [[anti-harassment policy]] which covers all conduct in the physical space and in our online spaces.

Leadership is taken by individual members for specific projects. We call this "sudo leadership" after the *nix command ''sudo'' which allows a regular user to do one root-level, or superuser, task. In other words, if you want Noisebridge to do something, start doing it.

Here's some paraphrasing from our bylaws:
Through talks, classes, workshops, collaborative projects, and other activities, we want to encourage research, knowledge exchange, learning, and mentoring in a safe, clean space. We provide educational spaces for teaching practical skills and theory of technology, science, and art. We provide work space, storage, and other resources for projects related to art, science, and technology that will benefit the individual members' personal growth in their fields of interest, encouraging the individual members to share their projects and knowledge for the betterment of society through art, science and technology. We create, learn, and teach, individually and as a group, inviting members of the community in the San Francisco Bay area and the world. We develop, support the development of, and provide resources for the development of free and open source software and hardware for the benefit of society. We promote collaboration across disciplines for the benefit of cultural, charitable, and scientific causes.

== Tripartite Pillars ==

===Excellence===
'''Be excellent to each other''' is the guiding principle of Noisebridge. Wikipedia uses [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Don't_be_a_dick a somewhat similar rule], which they call "''the fundamental rule of all social spaces. Every other policy for getting along is a special case of it.''" Unlike Wikipedia, Noisebridge takes a positive approach, and avoids the practice of officially enumerating the myriad potential special cases; ''' "be excellent" ''' is enough.

===Consensus===
We make official Noisebridge decisions by consensus, which means the willing consent of all of our members. Decisions are typically made at our [[:Category:Meeting_Notes|weekly meetings]] or via our online management venues, and items proposed for consensus are announced at least a week in advance to give everyone time to hear about them. Conceivably, members could block by proxy if they are unable to attend or if they wish to block anonymously.

More information on the [[Consensus Process]].

===Do-ocracy===
Doing excellent stuff at Noisebridge does not require permission or an official consensus decision. If you're uncertain about the excellence of something you want to do, you should ask someone else what they think.

== Testimonials ==

[[Testimonials | Why people love Noisebridge]]

* Smart creative people, welcoming community, friendly to newbies
* Equipment, tools, books, materials, and the space itself
* Its culture of free, open, accessible, DIY awesomeness

== Financing it ==

We self-finance through membership fees ($80 per member/month with $40 "starving hacker" rate), beverage sales, and parties, the way European hacker spaces do it. We also welcome one-time or recurring [[Donate_or_Pay_Dues|donations]] from members and non-members alike. Donations and sponsorships will accompany renovation and equipment purchase. Within the first 24 hours of renting a space, we raised over $10,000 for a cool location and meaningful projects. Within our first month, we've nearly become cash flow positive from membership dues alone. Further discussion is happening on the [[Finances]] wiki page.

== Inspiration ==
Noisebridge is inspired by similar European clubs like [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metalab Metalab] of Vienna, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C-base CBase] of Berlin, [http://www.mi2.hr/ MAMA] of Zagreb, and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII_%28squat%29 ASCII] of Amsterdam. Many other clubs of a similar stripe can be found at [http://hacklabs.org/index_en.php Hacklabs] and [http://hackerspaces.org/wiki/List_of_Hacker_Spaces Hackerspaces dot Org]. It would not be out of the question to consider Noisebridge a possible [http://events.ccc.de/2007/09/27/say-hello-to-bitkanonecccde/ San Francisco Chaostreff]. Noisebridge is a hacker space and community that shares a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorkbot Dorkbot]-like ethic, and indeed, many of the members of Noisebridge are long-time Dorkbotters.

== The Name ==
A "noise bridge" performs useful services by injecting noise into a system. Such a device is often used in RF electronics.

== The Space ==
Read some [[oral histories]] from members, or add your own!

As she watched it expanded from four to five and then to six inches in length and it kept on going until it was almost a foot long and drooping downward, nearly bridging the distance between him and the dashboard radio console.
“What…what did you do to me,” he gasped as he reached out to grab his monster cock with both hands. Like a rabid, out of control animal, he began pumping on his grossly distended shaft and he continued to do so until a splurt of white goo erupted from the head of it and spattered across the surface of the AM/FM radio.
“OH SHIT,” Ricky blurted in an almost girlish voice as he jumped up and literally climbed over into the back seat to escape his little brother’s bizarre expulsions.

Ryan: Noisebridge is as some people call it a hacker spaceship, a place for cool ppl incl. everyone here to come hack and build cool things based on the process of doocracy, so you don't have to ask others to do things you just do them, as long as you follow the one simple rule of noisebridge which is be excellent to each other.

= Participation =

Invite a knowledgable volunteer to describe who can participate at Noisebridge, including:
* Describe how to get an rfid key for the door system
* Describe how to get access to slack

* Jarrod: One way is if you're coming regularly and people know you, you can track down a member and get a 30 day day-time RFID access for the door. Beyond that, you can become a philanthropist, and take on additional responsibilities and pay a membership fee. Also you can become a member which is even more responsibilities. But in general you can participate just by coming to noisebridge and hacking on stuff w/ the tools and resources here, provide you're excellent when doing it. Feel free to use the space and hack on the space and modify things.
* Ryan: Please dont hack on Do Not Hack things, and if you're moving someone's project, please let them know, leave a note, etc.
NickH: Communication is important! When in doubt, communicate! Leave notes, etc!

No new philanthropists!

* Jarrod: If you want 24h access to noisebridge, become a philanthropist! $80 a month, $40 starving hacker rate. Also take on responsibilities such as closing down the space. Apply for philanthropy w/ a form from the binder, get a member to sponsor, then after you become one, get in touch w/ treasurer and get RFID access in #rack.

* Read off any names from the binder for the past month. Mark down a check or other indicator on every open application to keep track of how many weeks they've been read out.
* Anyone eligible to join this week should
** introduce themselves,
** answer any questions members may have for them, then
** leave the area in search of gifts (traditionally beer and a lime, or cookies) for the rest of the group.
* The rest of the meeting should reach consensus on whether they may join.
* Remember to applaud new members when they return.

* Jarrod: NB is run by the members of the space technically. Run by everyone in the space at any given time, but officially governed through Consensus. Ppl who participate are the Members, who take on additional responsibilities to keep noisebridge running, make sure interesting things are happening, things get repaired, etc. Ppl who think NB is an important part of the world as they see it, and put in time and effort to keep it in existence. Made members through the consensus process. Which is...
* Zach: A very very important process of how we decide important shit at noisebridge. If noisebridge had a constitution, the consensus process is how we'd made amendments. Different from voting tho, we try to get everyone to agree when something fundamental about noisebridge changes, through the consensus process. Integral that it's more inclusive than voting: not about majority. Involves lots more discussing, meeting with people to work out problems, requires more maturity and work, but has a lot of benefits. There's an official concensus process listed on the wiki page - anyone unfamiliar w/ it can talk to Zach. Consensus items can be proposed by anyone, but only members can block - which is the only REALLY big thing about being a member at noisebridge. EG not renewing the lease. Members can block, like a veto.
* Jarrod: Typically in practice, the consensus process discussions continue until either its clear that the proposal won't move forward, or it goes until it progresses towards actual consensus among everyone in the community. Minimum is two weeks - first week its proposed, where its also discussed. If the language that comes out of that meeting is good, it goes to next week, where any new developments are discussed again, more commentary is possible, and if everyone is still happy with it, then it gets consensed. Sometimes during the second meeting, the language of the proposal will be changed such that pushing it back is necessary, or sometimes the proposers aren't present for discussion. Generally as long as communication is happening, the process can be flexible.
* Steve: For membership, tho, its a 4 week process.
* Zach: There's a sort of ongoing discussion about clarifying the process b/c at the last meeting there was some confusion about it. If anyone wants to help with that, talk to Zach.
*
* ----
*
* Zach: A member at noisebridge is an unstoppable tyrant that you cant disagree with at any point, who has the power of Caesar and Alexander the Great combined! No no. Noisebridge members are like everyone else except they can veto shit, are committed to the space in a deeper way, and provide financial support for NB's rent and infrastructure toward that goal. Have 24/7 access. But w/ great power comes great responsibility, so if you let people in late, or give them keycard access, you're responsible for them and their behavior.
*
* Ryan: The diff. between philanthropy and membership is pretty much only veto power, which overall doesn't get used very often.
* Zach: Members can also sponsor philanthriopists, new members, which is worthwhile. Membership says something about how much you care about the space, more so than philanthropist does.
* Jarrod: It also means I will nag you to get involved in big projects.. A *lot*.

* Jarrod: Become a member by filling out the application, put it in the binder w/ sponsor signature, and then go through the process! 4 meetings reading it out, usually.

Current applications:
* Merlin (Many MANY check marks, since May! where are you tho :( )
* Nicole Gaard (5 check marks! come to a meeting!)
* Lady Red (6 check marks! come to a meeting!)

= Financial Report =
* Funds in bank:
* Noisetor (See the bulletpoints at the bottom of http://noisetor.net/finances/#summary):
* Any other details by those participating in handling our financials

TBD

= Consensus =

* '''invite a knowledgeable volunteer to give '''[[Consensus Process|a brief primer on consensus process]]
* It is important that everyone in attendance understands at least:
** Blocking with verbalized principled objections.
** Why we use consensus over other approaches to decision making.
** How consensus isn't a legislative process
** Why consensus isn't applicable to some things like conflict resolution, resolution of time sinks, and the like.

== [[ Consensus Items History | Proposals from last week ]] ==
''(Add any items which are consensed upon or someone has raised a principle objection for to the [[Consensus Items History]] page.)''

* Zach's elevator repair fund. Jarrod: no one in opposition, 3 members present (Alex Peake present for quorum). Quorum. Consensed!

== [[ Current Consensus Items | Proposals for next week ]] ==
''(Add any new items for consensus to the [[Current Consensus Items]] page.)''

No new consensus proposals.

= Discussion =

Longer discussion items belong here. This is the last part of the meeting so that people can break off and continue their discussion afterwards.

== Discussion Items ==

If any important discussion happens, it should be happening after forward progress is made during consensus.

===Zach's discussion item===

* Zach: Work in process trying to clarify the consensus process, b/c the wiki documentation isn't very clearly written. So that in the future, the process is easier to understand for everyone involved. The recent consensus proposal lead to a ton of confusion from people, b/c of things that aren't in the wiki that ppl are strongly opinionated about (eg quorum), plus some things in the wiki are confusing (eg changing text of the proposal, as long as the modification isn't "radical", but what does that mean?). The idea that clarification of what it means to not have consensus with people who don't come to meetings, and is consensus by people who come to meetings or do we have to use slack, or any particular platform, for communicating consensus items? If you don't read the discuss list, or the notes, etc. is this a problem for participating in consensus? Possibly also we should modify the consensus process to make it all clearer, but this obviously requires loooots of discussion.

* Jarrod: summary: What's quorum?? Altered text?? What really is the process?? Is slack required, or not??

* Augur: Can ppl retroactively block b/c this was mentioned in slack but it sounds shady. Torrie mentioned effective retroactive blocking by not doing the work to make a thing happen, eg. financial work by the treasurer.

* Adrian: What's up w/ quorum?
* Jarrod: It seems to be a new thing, tbh. Used to have lots of people here, but now only a handful of members.

* Steve: Where do these things need to be advertised??
* Zach: That's related to the question of how you get members to meetings to participate if there really is a quorum requirement. I feel like noisebridge is a community that you can participate to the extent you want to, so if you don't participate, it's your choice, and if something is really important to you, you should be active, read the meeting notes, come to meetings. If I choose not to, it's on me if I don't see something that's been in the meeting notes that I don't like. Also about quorum, it's not like there's just three ppl here, there's a table full of people, they're just not all members, but they DO participate and contribute to noisebridge, so needing some minimum of membership seems too much. Another thing that doesn't make sense to me is, I was explicitly told to post on NB discuss about this item w/ the text, I did that, and that's what launched a long discussion w/ multiple people, so it was out there. So if members don't show up to block, it seems like a strange burden on the proposer that you need to go get some of members to be physically present before an item can be consensed on. Another really important thing about the process in the wiki is that it says you can have someone proxy for you, so quorum is kind of easier in principle.

* Jarrod: Zach's description sounds like he went through all the right channels. Back in the day there were 4 things for validity: proposed at meeting and recorded in notes, placed on the current items wiki page, and brought up on discuss for discussion (so 4 locations it can appear). this used to be the process of due diligence.
* Adrian: No official list of ways to bring the item to the community. Would like to add slack as a recommended place to propose it (could posted by anyone, not just the proposer).
* Zach: The current items page was not listed on the consensus doc page as a place where things need to be posted. As a whole, this is a lot of process and takes such a lot of time and effort, and adding more things, like slack, to this process is an even bigger thing. We should have a big conversation about this change, esp. given that slack is a big corporate entity, that it's a privately-owned communication medium, etc. If anyone has info on slack privacy policies and practices, I'd be interested in reading, b/c this is a concern. I think it's just not in line w/ the 501c3 to have slack be such a central, required part of the process of noisebridge, as opposed to just a convenient tool people choose to use.
* Kevin: Slack being a chat app is more about conversations and very much about syncronous convos. The mailing list is very asynchronous, there's an expectation of delay where convos take time. I think there are numerous issues with making slack an official medium for getting business done. Great place to have convos that make up business, but not good for it as a place of record, announcement, etc. It's too mashed up, not collected into topics, reply threads, etc. Also slack is invite only, not very accessible, while the mailing list is public. Slack also isn't very accessible, requires good typing speed, good eyesight, etc.

* Steve: I was just going to ask if there could be some kind of online tools??

* Zach: Additionally, who's the admin for discuss?
* Jarrod: Maybe Andy Isaacson? Maybe Danny O'Brian?

===Ryan's discussion items===

* Ryan: City College is starting to build makerspaces and we're going to have a somewhat large meeting tomorrow 2-4pm at the CC library media center (3rd floor, first floor from the front entrance w/ the hill) which is going to become one of the makerspaces. I'd be happy if anyone could make it or message me any info you'd like me to bring up. I'm @pyconaut on slack. The mediacenter one is going to be mostly computer and VR dev stuff, not so much electronics hacking. It's a large space tho and is in the library, and it will be public access, as CC library is a public library, so everyone at noisebridge can use it.

a cop…but it wasn’t his masturbation that shocked her so much as it was the size of his penis. Fuck…it was as big as…as my fucking leg…that’s just not possible…that’s not even human.
Concentrating, she closed her eyes and tried to revisit the moment when she saw him just before hitting the bump in the road. Replaying the event, she saw him clearly in her mind…his glazed over expression, his eyes…his eyes looked wrong…no pupils…just white…white eyes. Looking down she could clearly envision the gigantic dick…its huge head swollen and shiny…nearly purple…semen oozing out the top of it and then…at the last second, the boy’s head tilted upward…as if to look back at her as she glared at him…and the dick suddenly exploded with nasty jizz all over the driver’s side back window…and that’s when she’d lost control of the bike.

==Noisebridge TIME TRAVEL Ball and Fundraiser==

[[File:NB10-Ball-Banner.jpg|768px|right]]

Our donation based '''TIME TRAVEL themed Ball (and fundraiser), starts on Saturday Night September 9th starting at 19:30'''.

Music and Visual Artists will be performing live at Noisebridge. VR projects and games will be demonstrated. Gnaraoke will be sung. Games will be played. Decorations will be decorative.

All are encouraged to come dressed as a Time Traveller. ''If you are a Time Traveller, you've probably already been to the party and hopefully you wore something festive.''

If you would like to bring artwork, or an activity to the Ball please contact Jarrod - hicksu@gmail.com to coordinate, or just surprise us.
 

====Live Performances by:====

[[File:NB10-Suyash-Banner.jpg|600px|right]]

Suyash Joshi aka '''Techillusionist''' - Technology and Magic combined and performed in new and exciting ways. Suyash Joshi is San Francisco based creative technologist who enjoys hacking on advance technology - IOT, VR, AR, Drones etc to create illusions and magical affects in his performances. He will be presenting a mix of old and new magic show for hackers and makers at the 10th ball evening.
 
 
[[File:NB10-RichDDT-Banner.jpg|600px|right]]

'''LoveTech''' connects artists and communities around engaging experiences, leveraging fresh talent and cutting-edge innovation to expand the dimensions of human expression. We feature established artists pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, as well as emerging artists exploring new spaces in interactive media. '''RICH DDT''' is a live electronic music producer/performer, interactive installation designer, and event organizer who is passionately repurposing the latest technology to create an awe-inspiring, open and supportive environment for human connection.

http://lovetech.org , http://richddt.com
 
 
[[File:NB10-Moldover-Banner.jpg|600px|right]]

History notes only a handful of artists who successfully pushed the limits - both with their music and with the design of their musical instruments. What Bach was to the keyboard and Hendrix was to the guitar, '''Moldover''' is to the controller. Disillusioned with “press play DJs”, Moldover fans eagerly welcome electronic music’s return to virtuosity, improvisation, and emotional authenticity. Dig deeper into Moldover’s world and you’ll uncover a subversive cultural icon who is jolting new life into physical media with “Playable Packaging”, sparking beautiful collaborations with his custom “Jamboxes”, and drawing wave after wave of followers with an open-source approach to sharing his methods and madness.

http://moldover.com/
 
 
[[File:NB10-DoctorStriker-Banner.jpg|600px|right]]

Imagining a sonic world that diverged from our own in 1991, '''Doctor Striker''' shreds and roars over heavy beats, guitar riffs, bass lines, and synth hooks. He brings the classical and punk worlds together with training and discipline to electronic pop to create a political, personal and incisively optimistic brand of music.

She hadn’t even had a date in nearly six months and that was in spite of her double-DD tits.
Glancing downward, she eyed them, compressed beneath her shirt and bullet-proof vest. She always thought she looked ridiculous with the vest on. It bulked you up so bad you had to wear a size larger shirt to start with…and with her noonies crammed down in there, it was even worse.
