Nights were, as usual, reserved for crazy EESTEC parties, every night in a different place. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Local Events* *New Year in Ljubljana* Another New Year's eve, yet craziest of them all. First, we experienced the magic of ancient Greek parties (dress code: Toga) and none the less, we entered in new year in P.I.M.P. style.

You want to learn how to design digital controllers? Then you have to get some information about FPGA's (Field Programmable Gate Array). It means there will be lots of practice and a factory tour as well. Do you think we will stop at nights? No no no! We will give you a chance to feel the atmosphere with 100.000 students in the city, to smoke Nargile (Water Pipe), enjoying Hamam(Turkish Bath) and tasting delicious Turkish meals. ********************************************************************* *E-Health* *Organiser*: LC Madrid *Dates*: 02-09.03.2008 *Number of places: *15-20 *Deadline for visa countries*: 5 February *Deadline for non-visa countries*: 10 February *website*: http://www.eestec.es/ <http://www.eestec.es/ehealth> ehealth <http://www.eestec.es/ehealth> We have organized an exciting workshop regarding new technologies in medicine and bio-engineering. These topics are very important nowadays and we wish to take advantage of our University's leadership in both fields. What about night-part? I think most of you know one week in Madrid has AT LEAST seven nights full of party and enjoyment.

This competition provides university students and professional software developers an opportunity to test their durability, sharpen their problem solving skills and programming abilities under extreme conditions. Teams are competing with each other for valuable awards; in each team there are three programmers. Programming languages and operating systems are not restricted.
