			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This month we&#8217;ll be crashing LARuby&#8217;s meeting here in our backyard at UCI.  Here&#8217;s the details:</p>
<p>========================================</p>
<p>Title: LARuby Meetup #8</p>
<p>Date: Thursday January 15, 2009<br />
Time: 7:00 pm &#8211; 10:00 pm<br />
Location: UC Irvine Campus &#8211; Information/Computer Science Building, Room CS432<br />
Notes: I&#8217;m excited to host the first meeting of 2009 at UC Irvine.<br />
It will be held in the Information and Computer Science building, room<br />
CS432.</p>
<p>**IMPORTANT &#8211; PARKING**</p>
<p>Regrettably we couldn&#8217;t work it out so parking would be free so you<br />
will have to pay for part time parking at one of the kiosks at the<br />
entrance to any of the parking structures. To park near the meeting:<br />
First, make a right turn onto East Peltason rd. from Campus dr. and<br />
follow that until you see the second parking structure on your right<br />
side, not lot. Park on any floor the attendant recommends and ask him<br />
for directions to the Information and Computer Science building, not<br />
the new Donald Bren Hall.</p>
<p>There will be snacks and drinks graciously provided by the ACM of UCI;<br />
hope to see you there!</p>

<p>There&#8217;s a map here.  </p>

<p>The CS building is building #302 on the map, on the south side of campus.</p>
