<p>Hi, I'm Daniel Greenfeld. You might know me from my <a class="reference external" href="http://pydanny.com">blog</a>. I'm here to talk to you about a very import subject: <strong>Submitting your talk early to PyCon US.</strong></p>
<p>Last year there were hundreds of talks were submitted for just a very few speaking slots. <strong>Unpaid volunteers</strong> labored for hours before and after their normal jobs reviewing and debating which talks were to get in. The volume of talks combined with simple reviewer fatigue means that earlier submitted talks got more attention.</p>
<p>This year, following the pattern of previous years, we're going to have 25% more talk submissions.</p>
<div class="section" id="please-don-t-leave-your-poor-talk-or-tutorial-out-in-the-cold">
<h2>Please don't leave your poor talk or tutorial out in the cold.</h2>
<p><strong>Submit early.</strong></p>
<p>Help us fix the problem in one of two ways:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li><a class="reference external" href="https://us.pycon.org/2013/speaking/cfp">Submit your talk as early as possible</a>.</li>
<li><a class="reference external" href="http://pycon.blogspot.com/2012/07/i-want-you-for-pycon-program-commitee.html">Help review PyCon US talks</a>.</li>

<p>The world was ancient, scarred from a thousand wars between gods, immortals, and heroes. Old grudges have faded but are not forgotten.</p>
<p>At the end of a so-called ‘age of peace’, two great nations of immortals march against each other, with humanity caught in the middle. In this world of conflict, three very different individuals are thrust into the face of danger.</p>
