If you have any questions, please contact Chuck Cole ( cncole at earthlink.net ) or Bruce Hanson ( listed in the event below ). Attention members, we have two meetings in early December: *A panel discussion on Home Automation* (rescheduled) and a meeting co-hosted with Arrow Electronics on *The Internet of Things*. On December 8th, at the Southdale Library in Edina, MN, in the Helen Young Room, *A Panel Discussion on Home Automation*. There will be three IEEE panelists discussing how they implement their home automation systems.

On December 11th at the Hyatt Regency Minneapolis, in association with Arrow Electronics, a day-long session on *The Internet of Things--Immersions* where you will have an opportunity to learn more about small embedded systems talking with a database to achieve distributed data logging, process control, security and cloud participation in distributed systems! The Keynote speaker is Sam Schmidt. Arrow engineers joined forces with the industry to modify a race car to be driven by individuals living with quadriplegia. Join Indy Racing League legend, Sam Schmidt, for a personal and moving story about how machine to machine (M2M) and the latest in IoT technology helped put Sam back in the car and what it means for the future of transportation.
