“Looking for a junior or senior ugrad that has matlab programming experience. I am grad student working on a project that involves some matlab programming, any assistance in coding would be greatly appreciated. Will pay hourly for tutoring? Please contact me at, mkalif@u.washington.edu.”

Subject: ACM Programming Contest
I wanted to share results for the Pacific Northwest Programming
Contest that was held today. We compete in a region that stretches
from southern California up to Canada and over to Hawaii. The contest
is held at five different sites simultaneously. Marty Stepp and I
traveled with our three teams to the University of Oregon in Eugene to
compete.
As usual, our particular site had the most teams and we dominated our
site. We placed 1st, 2nd, and 3rd among the 22 teams from Washington
and Oregon competing at the University of Oregon. And we had our best
showing ever in the region. UW teams placed 5th and 6th in the region
out of 77 teams total. Those two teams placed above all the teams
from Berkeley and Simon Fraser who are normally very tough
competitors. They were beaten only by teams from UBC, Stanford, and
the University of Victoria.
Our teams were:
Team Captcha (1st at site, 5th in region):
Jeff Booth, Michael Sloan, Will Johnson
Firefighter Endorsed (2nd at site, 6th in region):
Joshua Snyder, Kevin Wallace, Alyssa Harding
Three Bytes Deficient (3rd at site, 23rd in region):
Steven Howard, Conrad Meyer, Tyler Smith
Please join me in congratulating them for their outstanding performance.

Hey everyone,
Over the next few weeks, certain ugrad labs will be closed for cleaning. The computers will be taken out, and the tables and carpets will be cleaned. Each lab will be closed Monday-Thurs during this process.
The schedule is:
Aug 10th-13th – Room 002
Aug 17th-20th – Room 022
Aug 24th-27th – Room 006
Hey….
The team that cleans our building is now down to a crew of four. We have a pretty big building, and some big expectations, so this will be burdensome for the crew. What I’m hoping is that with a little courtesy, we can help not hinder their success.
1. please throw your trash away into a waste bin, or your recycling into a recycle bin- the crew shouldn’t have to pick up after us.
2. if a bin is full, please don’t overload it. Contact myself for an extra bag- it’s much easier for the team to take out two bags than have to struggle with one over full bag.
3. if you have any suggestions to help us keep the labs clean and neat, send my way. I think. Hmm…maybe that’s a bad idea…..
