      <title>Apr 15:  Dave Thomas and Chad Fowler show some code</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;The next meeting of the NovaRUG will be held Wednesday, Apr 15th at the FGM headquarters from 6:30 PM to 9 PM. The presentation will start at 7 PM.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Register:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.eventbrite.com/event/300128693"&gt;Register Here to RSVP&lt;/a&gt;. Please make sure to register since this should generate a lot of interest. I will make sure the HVAC is left on this year!

&lt;p&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Topic:&lt;/b&gt;  We don't know, but with Chad Fowler and Dave Thomas presenting it will be worth your while to attend.  I heard that they plan to examine some code in detail.

&lt;p&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Speakers:&lt;/b&gt; Dave Thomas and Chad Fowler, the famous authors of the Pickaxe Ruby book that we all have on our desk.  They are also teaching an upcoming &lt;a href="http://pragmaticstudio.com/rails/"&gt;Rails class in Reston, April 15-17&lt;/a&gt;.

&lt;p&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Sponsors:&lt;/b&gt; Food and drink will be provided starting at 6:30, pizza courtesy of CodeSherpas.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.codesherpas.com/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://rubynation.org/images/sponsors/sherpa-thumb.png"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Sodas (and the room) from FGM, as usual.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.fgm.com/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://rubynation.org/images/sponsors/fgm-thumb.png"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Cookies and brownies from RubyNation (hey, we don't have to buy pizza this time!).

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.rubynation.org/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://rubyforge.org/images/rn1.png"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Jetbrains:&lt;/b&gt; We will also give out a Jetbrains license, good for ReSharper Personal License, dotTrace Personal
License, IntelliJ IDEA Personal License, TeamCity Build Agent (their
Continuous Integration and Build Server), or RubyMine (new Ruby IDE).

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.jetbrains.com/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.jetbrains.com/img/newdesign/jb_logo_color.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
