by Aki Oksanen 23 May '06

23 May '06

Tervehdys! Poikkeuksen vahvistavana sääntönä, kesällä oleva Workshop Zurichissä, aiheena matkapuhelinsuunnittelu. Aiheen luulisi kiinnostavan useampiakin täällä opiskelevia... Alkuperäinen kutsu meilin lopussa. 23.-30. heinäkuuta LC Zurich järjestää Workshopin, jossa tutustutaan matkapuhelimia valmistavaan yritykseen, suunnitellaan itse matkapuhelimia ja käsitellään muita matkapuhelimiin liittyviä asioita. Ilmoittautumisen takaraja on 12.6. ja paikkoja on varattu kaksi per LC, yhteensä 20. Nopeimmat pääsevät varmemmin osallistumaan. Ilmoittautumiset osoitteeseen helsinki-cp(a)eestec.org ja lähetän meilissä mainitun lomakkeen. Tässäkin tapauksessa ilmoittautuminen tapahtuu kootusti, eli Contact Person (minä) kerää tiedot ja lähettää järjestäjille. Vapaampaa ohjelmaakin on toki luvassa, tutustumista Zurichiin ja vuoristoon sekä muuhun ympäristöön. Unohtamatta sveitsiläistä suklaata! Terveisin, Aki Oksanen ------------------------------------------- Mr. Aki Oksanen EESTEC LC Helsinki "The Face Is Servin-Maijan tie 12D45 Contact Person '06 Familiar, But 02150 Espoo, Finland I Can't Quite +358 (0)40 702 7053 Remember My Name" ------------------------------------------- ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Hello EESTECER's LC Zurich invites you to participate in our Workshop - "Do it your cell" (23.7. - 30.7.06).

Sunny Spain Reloaded 06 - LC Madrid
by Aki Oksanen 23 May '06

23 May '06

Moikka! Kesätapahtumia pukkaa myös EESTEC:n parissa! Kesällä järjestettävät jutut ovat monesti vapaamuotoisempia ja niihin saattaa olla jopa joku maksu. Esimerkkejä tämän lisäksi ovat vaikka festarit (EXIT Novi Sadissa, vielä ehtii). Syksyllä, talvella ja keväällä on taas enemmän ammattimaisempia ja virallisempia tapahtumia... 16.-24. heinäkuuta Sunny Spain Reloaded 06, La Manga - Espanjan itärannikolla! Viikon mittainen rantaloma monilla aktiviteeteilla höystettynä. Alla olevassa meilissä on kerrottu paljon tarkemmin ohjelmasta ja mukana on myös monia linkkejä, joista voi katsella lisätietoja. Hintaa tulee 80e + matkat kohteeseen. Kutsumeilin mukaan matka Madridista tapahtumapaikkaan bussilla maksaisi viitisenkymppiä, mutta muitakin vaihtoehtoja löytyy useita. Mikäli kiinnostaa, niin lähettäkää meiliä osoitteeseen helsinki-cp(a)eestec.org Kesäisin terveisin, Aki Ps. Sää tullee olemaan todella kuuma ja aurinkoinen :P ------------------------------------------- Mr. Aki Oksanen EESTEC LC Helsinki "The Face Is Servin-Maijan tie 12D45 Contact Person '06 Familiar, But 02150 Espoo, Finland I Can't Quite +358 (0)40 702 7053 Remember My Name" ------------------------------------------- ---------- Forwarded message ---------- One year after Sunny Spain, here we go again with our... SUNNY SPAIN RELOADED 2006!! Last year we told you: "One week in the eastern coast of Spain, in a natural bay almost closed that forms an inside sea whose little deep waters keep warmer temperatures than in the rest of the Mediterranean coast. This is why that area is called "El Mar Menor" wich means "The Lesser Sea". The event will be held in an international huge camping 5km away from Cabo de Palos and La Manga. The camping has direct access to the beach, and has also several swimming pools, sport fields and services. http://www.caravaning.es/ (M$ IE only)" This year we can also talk about the experiences of last year: the days of windsurf, the chilling afternoons, the sunsets at the wild beach... take a look at the pics!: http://fotos.eurielec.etsit.upm.es/index.php/users_bisho/471?showmode=all What's new? Just one thing: the number of participants we will host. We will organize two events in one: Sunny Spain Reloaded event, that will host 20 participants in the usual way. [ES-ES] exchange, an España-Eslovenia exchange. You can't miss the opportunity of spending a week in the spanish seaside with ****50**** eestecers!! ADVERTISING - You can download the poster of the event from the following link: http://www.eurielec.etsit.upm.es/~golfo/SunnySpainReloaded06_A4_140dpi.pdf You are free to edit (maybe include some email address of your LC, etc) and print it. Things you should know: ABOUT THE APPLICATION METHOD - Each CP will send a list by priority of the members of his/her LC who want to apply for the event. The list MUST include name, email, gender, t-shirt size and photo. Also include the number of tents that your LC could bring. - There are 20 places. - Depending on how many applications we receive we´ll decide the best maximum number of places per LC. Probably 2-3, but could be higher. - The accepted applicants will automatically be added to the event´s mailing list. - We will consider the order in wich applications have arrived in case of necessity, so HURRY UP!! ABOUT THE FEE - The participation fee will be 80¬. This includes one week accomodation, food, sangría ;), two days of nautical sports, trips during that week (to the town, to visit some creeks or maybe a nudist beach...). - The price does not include the trip to La Manga and back to Madrid or wherever you take the return flight/train. ABOUT THE LOCATION - Camping Caravaning. Cartagena Highway, exit nº 15. La Manga del Mar Menor. Murcia. Spain. In the following link you can download the Location Map (2,4Mb) in printable version: http://www.eurielec.etsit.upm.es/~golfo/Location_Map.pdf ABOUT THE TRANSPORT - The event is not in Madrid. It´s in the eastern coast, 500km away from Madrid, so we will have to move there and back again. - You will have to reach La Manga, wich is the nearest town to the camping. The standard trip would be arriving to Madrid and then going to La Manga by bus (54¬, we would help you with the reservation). But there are other possibilities, since there is a secondary airport called San Javier that is closer to La Manga, from where you could take a less expensive bus. The same applies to Alicante or Valencia airport. You can get an idea downloading the Location Map. - Other possibilities for you to pay less for the trip would be finding some train (last year some participants came by Interrail) or bus that reaches Madrid, or directly to the coast (La Manga, Alicante, etc). As it´s summer maybe this could be the best idea, because there will be no time problems with classes and also flights might be more expensive. Please inform us so we can help out and make a schedule of arrivals. ABOUT DATES - It is very important that you respect the arrival/departure limits, as there will be a long distance trip after arrivals to Madrid, and before departures from Madrid. 16th July: LAST DAY (perfect day) for you to get to Madrid. 17th July, morning: Departure from Madrid to La Manga (500km) 24th July, morning: Departure from La Manga back to Madrid. 24th July, 8pm: SOONEST flight leaving Madrid. ABOUT THE WEATHER - It's going to be so fucking hot ( again ;) ) keep shiny! Jorge. CP LC-Madrid madrid-cp(a)eestec.org

Internal Affairs plan and BAs
by Aki Oksanen 16 May '06

16 May '06

Moikka! Kongressissa valittiin uusi hallitus kansainväliselle EESTEC:lle ja nyt etsitään apulaisia hallituksen jäsenille. Board Assistant eli BA toimii hallituksen jäsenen apuna jossain tietyssä tehtävässä, joita määritetään tilanteen mukaan. Osallistua voi koko vuodeksi tai vain osaksi johonkin projektiin, tapauksen ja halukkuuden mukaan. Mitään erityisiä vaatimuksia ei ole, kiinnostus riittää. Lisätietoja voi kysellä vaikka minulta. Alla olevassa meilissä on IA eli Internal Affairs -tehtäviä, joita on ehdotettu. Muutkin hallituksen jäsenet luultavasti hakevat assistentteja lähiaikoina, mutta VC-IA ehti ensimmäisenä. Kysykää lisää, jos kiinnostusta löytyy! Terveisin, Aki Oksanen ------------------------------------------- Mr. Aki Oksanen EESTEC LC Helsinki "The Face Is Servin-Maijan tie 12D45 Contact Person '06 Familiar, But 02150 Espoo, Finland I Can't Quite +358 (0)40 702 7053 Remember My Name" ------------------------------------------- ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Hi all you eestec-ers out there. I'm Gabi, the new VC-IA and this mail is to present to you what has to be done in the Internal Affairs field this year. These are the tasks given by the General Assembly during the Sofia Congress 2006. But these tasks must not be accomplished by only one person because they would not be of the best quality and it is not in the EESTEC Spirit. Therefore, a team is needed to do the things right. Being in this team of Board Assistants is a great opportunity for you to work on another level, to actually contribute to eestec's inner workings and to meet more closely some people who are as much involved as you. Also, you can be an example for others in your LC, thus motivating them and benefiting both them personally and eestec generally. So, below are the things we will have to do. But it doesn't mean that this is strict. If you have any suggestion, proposals, improvements, we'll all work on them. Also, the tasks you will have to do can be the ones you propose, the ones I suggest, duties for whole year, or a temporary activity. Any constructive thing helps. CP Stuff - questionaire for participants/organizers - compare questionaires and monitor/compare activity - collect reports of the events from participants - calendar of events/exams on the web to be constantly up-to-date - encourage people to send pictures from events to be publicly posted - encourage people to send posters together with event invitations on CP list - make a database with VISA requirements for each country Motivation - have regional helpers willing to go to certain LCs and do trainings and motivate people - work to create a training package for a "presidents' meeting" or 'international training" - support EESTEC Spirit and spread it as much as possible Alumni - encourage creation of alumni lists on local level - encourage local alumnis to communicate on international level - work with existing alumni section Communication - make an in-depth analysis of East-West differences in LCs - encourage people to be more active on international level, possibly resulting in Int'l Board applications Documents - update advisory guides - create a database of EESTEC Members - create an annotated version of RoP and Statutes - make a template for a recommendation letter from the Faculty for the LC recognizing its activities - have all materials for the Congress Guide ready 4 weeks before Congress - make templates for official letters Internships - develop the internship project and coordinate the internship persons in every LC - Vlado Milosevic from LC Ljubljana has already started working on this issue Regarding these and all other things, all BAs will have to send reports on a monthly basis. I will centralize all the information, add issues and send them during the monthly board mails to alleestec. In this way, every eestec-er will be able to see the progress and maybe come up with other ideas. Those interested, send me an e-mail to vc-ia(a)eestec.org until 25 May. The BAs will be approved during the HOBOM (Hand Over Board Meeting). I'm sure we will make a great team. All the best! -- Gabi Dragoi VC Internal Affairs of EESTEC International vc-ia(a)eestec.org +40727395110

Aurinkoista alkukesäpäivää! Astetta virallisemmin kerrottuna, Tallinnan Summer Campissä on IT-alalta muutamia luentoja ja tutustumista Tallinnan TKK:un. Ohjelmaan sisältyy myös työpaja-tyylisiä (workshop) käytännön tehtäviä, joista ainakin yksi on Microsoftin isännöimä. Ohjelma on IT-painotteinen, mutta mukana on myös luento eri kulttuureista. Mielenkiintoista uuden oppimista tarjolla. Jos siis epäilet, että viimeistään elokuussa lomailu koulusta alkaa kyllästyttää, on tässä erinomainen tilaisuus opetella uusia asioita muiden kulttuurien edustajien kanssa ja tutustua heihin iltaisin järjestettävän vapaa-ajan ohjelman parissa. Lisätietoa alla olevassa kutsussa, jossa on myös linkki järjestäjien kotisivuille. Ilmoittautua voi minun kauttani osoitteeseen helsinki-cp(a)eestec.org sunnuntaihin 14.5. mennessä. Tallinnaan pääsee edullisesti laivalla ja tässä on erinomainen tilaisuus tutustua EESTEC:n toimintaan, ellet ole sitä vielä tehnyt. Samalla voit huomata, että Tallinnassa ja Viron-laivoilla voi tehdä muutakin ryypätä ja hakea tuliaisia. Opiskeluterveisin, Aki Oksanen Ps. EESTEC:n toiminnasta ja tarkoituksesta kannattaa lukaista Outi Kosken 8.5. kirjoittama kertomus Kongressista nyysseistä ryhmässä tky.alayhd.sik.valtuusto otsikolla "Re: KSK 2/2006" Pps. Tiivistettynä: EESTEC:iä ollaan viemässä ammattimaisempaan suuntaan ja opintomaisten Workshoppien määrää on tarkoitus lisätä. Ideoita LC Helsingin toiminnasta, vioista tai toiveista voi lähettää hallitukselle osoitteeseen eestec-board(a)tky.hut.fi :) ------------------------------------------- Mr. Aki Oksanen EESTEC LC Helsinki "The Face Is Servin-Maijan tie 12D45 Contact Person '06 Familiar, But 02150 Espoo, Finland I Can't Quite +358 (0)40 702 7053 Remember My Name" ------------------------------------------- ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Organizer - LC Tallinn (Estonia) Dates - 31st of July - 7th of August Deadline for applying - 14th of May Here is a reminder of 3rd International SummerCamp for IT students!!! - Why should you apply? Because you want to have a good time and visit Estonia! On weekdays you will have opportunity to visit interesting places in Tallinn including Tallinn Old Town, several night-clubs/pubs, see our university and there will be a few lectures and workshops (one workshop is by Microsoft). Our attention is mainly on IT, but there will also be an interesting lecture about different cultures. For the weekend we will go to Lake Peipsi, so you can see Estonian nature, try sauna, swim in the lake and just relax! Sandy beach is ~20 meters from camping houses. - Why is applying so early? Because summer is busy time and like this we can give you final acceptance in May already and you can buy your plane tickets cheaper and in addition there is time to get visas for those who need it.

Heips! Muistutuksena vielä viikko aikaa ilmoittautua elokuun alussa Tallinnassa järjestettävään tapahtumaan. Tallinnaan on todella helppoa ja halpaa lähteä täältä, joten miettikää vielä kerran! Tuossa vaiheessa kesää on kiva pitää vähän lomaa kesätöistä tai opiskelusta ja viettää viikko ulkomailla. Ohjelmassa on jonkin verran asiaakin, mutta myös tutustumista Tallinnaan varmasti asiantuntevasti opastettuna ja viikonloppu Peipsi-järvellä. Lukekaa tarkemmat tiedot alla olevasta meilistä ja katsokaa siinä olevasta linkistä lisätietoja.
