SUMMARY:McDevitt Winter Musical: 'The Lightning Thief'
DESCRIPTION:As the half-blood son of a Greek god\, Percy Jackson has newly-discovered powers he can’t control\, a destiny he doesn’t want\, and a mythology textbook’s worth of monsters on his trail. When Zeus’s master lightning bolt is stolen and Percy becomes the prime suspect\, he has to find and return the bolt to prove his innocence and prevent a war between the gods. But to succeed on his quest\, Percy will have to do more than catch the thief. He must travel to the Underworld and back; solve the riddle of the Oracle\, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and come to terms with the father who abandoned him. Adapted from the best-selling book “The Lightning Thief” by Rick Riordan and featuring a thrilling original rock score\, “The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical” is an action-packed mythical adventure “worthy of the gods” (Time Out New York). \n

SUMMARY:Mill Talk: The unlikely story of Roomba—birthing the world’s favorite robot
DESCRIPTION:Every product has a story\, but one of the most improbable is the tale of Roomba. For 40+ years major corporations and basement tinkerers alike struggled to solve the seemingly simple problem of building a robotic floor cleaner. Nothing worked. Finally\, in 2002 a quirky team from an unknown company cracked the riddle and delivered Roomba. A million memes followed. \nThe talk recounts Roomba’s decade-long journey from a 1989 maker event at MIT to living rooms around the world. Presented by Joe Jones\, inventor of the Roomba. \nFree to the public but registration required. \n
