A word from Kenny's Italian Kitchen
Kenny's Italian Kitchen serves classic "Southern Italian American" food modeled after the "Little Italy" sections of Boston and New York. These Italian American styles of veal, chicken and seafood will include Parmigiana, Picatta and Marsala. Of course Kenny's Italian Kitchen wouldn't miss out on the classic meatballs, sausage & peppers or linguini & clams to name a few.Continued
Kenny's Italian Kitchen is decorated with red checkered cloth table cloths, dark woods and the walls are adorned with black and white photos of friends, family and regular guests. A cozy patio and full service bar accompany the warm, friendly and comfortable atmosphere. You will swear you just dined at a neighborhood Italian joint in the Northeast.

- Where you see all your friends!WingwalkerDined on 11/24/2014Having met a new banker, she invited me to meet her for lunch at Kenny's Italian, which I frequent often anyway. Once we were seated, we looked around the room, and on both sides of us were familiar faces and friends we both knew. It was a cozy home town feeling and fun.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nothing but the best of everythingFood1stVIPDined on 11/20/2014Laura our server is amazing A+ Great pizza, amazing sea bass special The more I eat there the more I love it. The only problem eating there is choosing just 1 entree when I always see 3 that I want. Joey (manager) treats us like family.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Kenny does it up rightOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 11/15/2014First time I was in Dallas, I found Kenny's Wood Fired Grill. It was amazing. Then I found out Kenny has other offerings and finally made it to another one. Kenny's Italian Kitchen did not disappoint. I had the gnocchi in an asiago cream sauce while my friend had the lasagna. Her portion was HUGE. Easily could make three meals out of it if you pair it with bread and salad. My gnocchi was delicious. It had chicken, mushrooms, artichokes and tomatoes. It comes with a basil pesto which I asked them not to include as I'm not a fan. It did not need it. The balance of flavors was perfect in my opinion. Kenny has done it again. I can't wait to try his other two places. If you're ever in the DFW area, you need to make your way to on of these restaurants. You will not be sorry.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Poor Food & ServiceOpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 11/10/2014The service was poor with the server having to be reminded to bring items. The eggplant was tough and soggy, tasting like paste.
- Very good fooddpbeachDined on 11/9/2014I love the relaxed feel of this place – like a comfortable dining room in a friends home. I definitely would return to try more dishes.

- Plenty of food, but inconsistent .Dine4enjoymentDined on 11/2/2014The food ordered was incorrectly served. The appetizers were never served. The salad portions were smaller than usual. & the food was served lukewarm & overcooked. The service was slow & scattered. This experience was not pleasant. The entrees were dry or overcooked.

- happyfoodieDined on 10/18/2014I have never had a less than great meal here. The Caesar salad is so great that many times I just stop by for lunch at the bar and have it with your fabulous warm bread. The service is always great and never intrusive. I think it's great that you can share a meal or anything else you want and no one makes a big deal out of it. Also the Sunday night meat balls are a hit!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Wonderful Italian Menuteacher34Dined on 10/6/2014This was my first time at Kenny's Italian. Each of us got something different and we all enjoyed what we got. I intend to go back again and try other things. The only downside was that it was a little loud which made it hard to hear the waiter and the tables are a little small if you have many dishes.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fantastic!PickyeaterDined on 10/6/2014I can't say enough about Kenny's Italian Kitchen. The service was top-notch and the food was wonderful! Everyone in my group loved what they ordered.

I highly recommend this restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great local spotAaacesfullDined on 10/3/2014Food is always good to better. Friendly service. And they are grateful for your businessSpecial Features:
- SDTexasDined on 10/3/2014Went with two of my friends & we enjoyed our dinner. Italian chopped salad was a bit bland but the bruschetta was really good. We had the baked ziti, filet with herbed risotto & the special (shrimp with pine nuts & herbed pasta/spinach). Ziti had good flavor, the filet was cooked at the perfect medium for my taste & risotto was super rich & so good. The the shrimp was average-not bad but not great. I would have been happy with just the bowl of pasta. Dessert was disappointing - the bread pudding was underwhelming. Our server was great - she gave us time to ask questions about the wine and entree list and didn't rush us at the end of the night, though we were the last people there. Definitely appreciated that. Would go back again.Special Features:

The Making of a Wine List
I'm lucky to be in this industry and to have had access to great wine writers and educators, as well as wine tastings and other events. I've tried everything and I've gone through still other preference phases. There was Malbec from Argentina. Ice wine from Canada. Chardonnay from Burgundy. Rose from Provence. Sparkling wine from Champagne. Then back to Campagna and Friuli. A mixed tape.
But last Monday, as I sat with my friend Marj (a.k.a. Magpie) trying to decide whom to vote for (I live in Massachusetts), it was Gruner Veltliner's leitmotif I chose.

CAPE CORAL, FL--We have uncovered those internet gambling cafes the Governor shut down just two days are are re-opening.
For Estrecia Brace, playing casino games isn't just about winning
"You don't just sit and press buttons you have got to scheme," she said.
Just a couple of days ago, Brace's favorite niche to keep her mind sharp locked it's doors after Governor Rick Scott signed a law banning internet cafes and adult arcades which are mini-casinos with mostly slot and video gambling games.
But we discovered Vegas Three Casino in Cape Coral and other adult arcades across the area have re-opened their doors just two days after they were supposed to shut down.
"I am happy to be working and the customers are happy to be here," said employee Evelyn McCool.
Governor Scott left it to local authorities to carry out the law shutting these places down.
The problem is, local authorities say they had no idea about it until the bill was signed, so now they are taking time to review the law and give shops more time.
"Every day that I stay open I hope that I can recoup some of my loses," said one owner of an adult arcade.
This arcade owner didn't want us showing his face or name his business fearing he would be a target. He just opened five weeks ago and invested a little over twenty grand and says he had no idea this would happen.
"I would have not come in here and spent money, went back to South Carolina and lose 20 thousand dollars and out of a job," he said.
And bracey is happy she can keep "schemeing,"
"I would have had to go home and what do i do? Maybe just sit and watch like a couch potato," she said.

Hi, I'm new to using Family Tree Builder and I had a question about how to add illegitimate children. In both cases the names of the fathers are known but when I add them as the children's father it automatically adds the mother as the father's spouse. How do I add two parents to a child but show that they were never married?
Thanks for your time
edit the relationship STATUS of the parents from DEFAU:LT= Married-- change to Partners or OTHER -- there are options from which you can select!
the "opt
Thanks, I did change him to other but the man is still showing up as a relation through marriage to others in the family tree (e.g. my cousin's father is showing as my uncle despite not having married my aunt).
your cousin's father - IS your uncle- even if no marriage happened--
You are struggling with the parental relationship - ie illegeitimate - balanced wiht the genetic bond that exists-
You cann deny the blood bond by virtue of a non-marrige - so of course he will SHOW up.
Hi! I've just imported a GEDCOM file, and have found that 'unknown' spouses are appearing at random places in charts; they don't show up in the tree entry for the people they're attached to, or their list of spouses, so I can't see how to delete them. Any suggestions for how to get rid of them?
In the last hour when I tried to sync or connect from FTB to my family site (at http://www.myheritage.com/site-240385321/site ) I get a message indicating that there is no family site and asking if I want to set one up.
Are other people seeing this, too? Is this a temporary glitch? Is there something I need to do to fix this?
Dear EDS,
Thank you for your post on our Forum.
If you are still experiencing that issue, please check your sync settings and requests in order to make sure you are correctly connected and syncing to an existent site.
Please visit the link below to learn how to do it:
Have a great day!
Best regards,
While trying to import an FDB file created in Legacy Family Tree Genealogy Software I get a message:
Unable to import the file
Exit code -2
No other information is provided, confused!
Hi Lauris
I think that you will have to export a GEDCOM file from "Legacy" and the import that GEDCOM file into Family Tree Builder (FTB).
As very few genealogy software programs like FTB can import trees directly from another package, they nearly all use the common interface of a GEDCOM format flat text file.
I know I can import a .csv that was exported by the My Heritage program.
Is there any way I can enter basic people information in bulk into my family tree from a spreadsheet (that was not exported from MyHeritage)?
Dear Mr.Hood,
Thank you for your post here on the forum.
Since the first release of version 7 there have been a number of updates to this particular version due to a few little problems. Like most softwares they are not fail safe as we all would like them to be and are suseptable to glitches from time to time.
You are more than welcome to log into your online family site and scroll to the bottom of the home page and click on Family Tree Builder from the download section. This iwll let you download and install the latest version of the software.
I would advise however first making a backup of your database to your computer so that you have a reliable source of information should anything go wrong with your new FTB version.
Also please be assured that if you do run into any problems then you are only an email away from getting the support you require for any of the problems you may come across and our dedicated team will be on hand to help you the need arise.
Kind Regards,
MyHeritage Team.
Because something wrong with the post sorting. Your post is listed as 95 or so.
I wondered also what happened. I saw that there should be new posts but none where listed in the top.
There are a couple of bugs worth mentioning that I have noticed and been annoyed by:
PC application running on win7 x64
1. Large bitmaps > 10mb seem to make FTB think the database is massive and can inflate the sync size to 100's of mb over what it is causing upload to fail everytime. Solution I did when I found out (eventually) what it was is to convert the bmp to jpg. Error is in however FTB evaluated the bmp filesize for transfer.
I kept getting error 94 unspecified error (I think, since the log has overwritten)
2. Sync (Publishing) > Sync Settings > Advanced Sync Settings > Select Photos to Upload (Select Photos radio button) does not work in win 7 x64 in thumbnail view without clicking the radio button for table view then back to thumbnail.
When adding records if not all data is copied by pressing >> buttons the I sometimes get "%1 field" or "%name" cannot be copied and the import fails.
What I would like to see as an improvement is for census records to allow import of the census scanned document as an image but marked as a document and applied to every person in the import.
Regards and keep up the great work FTB crew :)
Thank you for your post here on our forum.
To asssit you with the merging of duplicated individuals within your database please take a look at the following two links I have provided for you as I am sure these will help you.
Hoping this has proven useful to you.
I have reported this and got the answer that it is due to the new handling where the oldest posts are removed and it will solve it self with time. I could not accept that answer since it is only this forum that is handled this way. The guy that answered me should send it futhur... That was for a couple of days ago.
Seems that seroius bugs that should be easy to fix still must go thru some strange que that will take weeks to get thru.
Dear Users,
Thank you for your posts here on the forum.
I do not need to go into how we work here at MyHeritage as this is non of your concern. However, we at support do not simply "Fob Off" users with a simple alert to make you feel as if everything is being taken care of.
When the support department notifies you that the matter has been forwarded to the relevant department, then it has. We are not computer programmers here in the support department thus we forward genuine problems that are out of our control to the people that have studied computer programming and know how to rectify the situation.
Problems however are handled by priority and sometimes there are more pressing issues that have a more drastic effect on the users experience that are taken care of first and foremost.
Yes the forum has gone through a change and like most things in the Pc world they dont always go according to plan and even the programmers/developers do not think of everything and get caught with glitches.
With regards to account information as I have many times mentioned. These forum posts are not handled publically as discussion of a users private account details in the public forum is not allowed and is a breach of privacy.
Users that enter into contracts (subscriptions), are notified of every transaction that they make and will or will not continue to make just like any reputable business would do. We are not to blame for the lack of responsibility on a users behalf when they do not read the emails that they are sent and then the following year wonder why they have been charged. However should there be a dispute then we take care of it in a professional manner and more often than not it is resolved within an email or two.
Hoping this has helped shed a little light on the topic for you.
Have a great day.
MyHeritage Team.
Thank you for your reply to my post.
As a fellow Australian (Cairns FNQ) I understand what you mean and there is no need to go into detail.
I also understand the current problem that is happening in the forum posts and again this is out of my hands at the moment and the developers are working on this. They need to re-write algorithms test and re-test before they rectify the situation. This may take a little time as they are also handling as previously mentioned more pressing issues along side this issue.
This issue is also effecting me so please do not feel alienated by this situation. We will get this sorted out and hopefully it will be sooner rather than later.
I have assigned a picture of a blue teddy for the males in my databse that died as children or Infant. Ans similaryl I have assignes a pink Teddy pic for the girls.
When I look in the PHOTO folder I have HOARDS of the same pic.
Is it not possible for the Software guru to make the situation where the record pont to the SAME pic. Ie ONE blue teddy and ONE Pink Teddy.
On a similar mote- my deceased parents share the same burial plot and hence the SAME headstone- as do my grnaparents etc.
Why then do I have TWO images of the ONE headstone for ONE united copuple -- or am I at odds with rational thinking here?
Seems to me that the images situation needs A LOT OF WORK!!
What do others tink- or have you not looked YET!
Terrence J FARROW
Dear Mr.Farrow,
This is happening due to the fact that you are using the same photo for different people which is creating duplicate copies of the photo. Once you enter a new person into the tree and then decide to assign a photo to them , then should the photo be a personal one of that specific person the photo would then be individual.
You have chosen to use the same photo to represent a certain charactoristic within your tree which is very nice however the side effect is duplications of the photo as they all become the persons personal profile photo.
I hope this has assisted with answering your question.
The triple photos wil be listed as, for example, P226_AUX_192_203, P226_AUX_96_128 and P226_AUX_192_256. A set of six has the labels P144_602_602, P144_AUX_123_128, P144_AUX_256_256, P145_442_590, P145_AUX_96_128 and P145_AUX_192_256. In that specific example, the six images are of duplicates for a photo of one single individual and as far as I can tell that photo is only once in my DB. The first file is 37kb or 40 kb, the two AUX files smaller at around 7kb and 22 kb.
My Photos directory contains 1,123 files and occupies 155 Mb on my hard drive. Those numbers would seem to be greater than what they should be.
This is NOT happening "due to the fact that you are using the same photo for different people which is creating duplicate copies of the photo." I have confirmed that a single photo used for a single individual appears three or as many as six times in the photos directory.
Please answer the question: why does the software create all these duplicate images?
PS I just noticed that my number of posts is 1. I used to have several hundred. Did you clear out previous forum posts?
So I see Tom Gray is "bacK' but his past posts are gone. mmm
Now about this duplicated photo issue.
Seems to me that Tom Gray hit the nail and MH dont grasp the probelm.
The issue is WHY so many duplicates-- surely the A_Team can solve that issue.
But then again I see that posts in the FTB are still back to front-- and they cant fix THAT either.
Perhaps we need a NEW A-TEAM becuse the current bunch of (IT) gurus -cant or wont fix Users issues.
Terrance Harold FARROW
Let me start by reassuring you that our development team are working on the mixed up forum problem amongst many other things that keep the family site and software running as smoothly as possible on a daily basis.
Should you have an problem that requires technical assistance, then I would advise scrolling to the bottom of the page and clicking on the 'Help' section. Once here then clcick on "Contact Form" to contact the support Team. Explain in as much detail as you can the problem you are facing. Once of our friendly representatives will be in contact with you at the first available moment to assist you with the problem.
Once again, the forum posted a private message in answer to a public question, which means that nobody else sees the answer.
No personal information was involved, only some technical information, so I'll summarize the response without going into detail:
"When you import pictures into your FTB, the software analyzes the pictures and creates - upon need - several resized versions of it. The smaller versions are being used for the display of the picture in the FTB in different places: thumbnails in the tree display, the large original version the Photos section of FTB and a preview mode, among others."
The software automatically names each resized image with a code that includes image number, image size, and other information that is of little concern or interest to the user.... including me!

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do Students Want a Mentor?
When many international students arrive at Washington College it is the first time that they have been in the United States and for some, it is their first experience far away from home. Although they are very likely to be more aware of the world than earlier generations, their images and perceptions of American life have been formed by television, movies and the internet. The reality, especially in a small town in a rural county, may not be what they expected.
There are many reasons why international students might want to participate in the program, but many say that they would like to have an adult Mentor from the Kent County community to:
- experience "real life" in the United States
- meet Americans in the community
- learn about career experiences and opportunities
- improve their spoken English
- travel and visit nearby cities
- experience life outside of the college campus
Why do Community Members Volunteer to Serve as Mentors?
The people who volunteer to serve as Mentors are generous and outgoing adults who like young people and who are willing to help international students who are far from home. Many of the Mentors have lived and traveled overseas and are interested in the global community.
Their reasons for volunteering to serve as Mentors are varied and may include:
- Learn more about the Students' country or region
- Practice their language skills
- Enrich their own lives by giving to others
- Expand their appreciation of other cultures
- Introduce their children to international students so they can become more open to other people and ideas
Are there Any Options if a Mentor and Student "Mentee" do not "Hit It Off?"
If the Mentor and/or the Student do not "hit it off" neither the Mentor nor the Student is obligated to stay in the relationship, and either may withdraw without prejudice by informing the Mentor Coordinator or the Mentee Coordinator in the WC-ALL International Student Mentoring Program. If you should like to continue in the Program the WC-ALL Coordinator will you to find a compatible Mentor or Mentee.
How Often Should the Student and the Mentor Meet?
There are no set guidelines on how often the student and Mentor should meet, or the activities that are expected. The Mentor and the Student should work this out together. But regular contact is important for both the Student and the Mentor and they should typically communicate once a week. These connections don't need to be lengthy and can sometimes be done by telephone. However, real conversation is important to develop and maintain the Student/Mentor relationship so emails and text messages should be reserved for quick contacts, for example, to schedule and confirm calls and meetings and other appointments.
Who Pays?
Mentors are all volunteers and the best occasions are usually free – for example, a visit to the Mentor's home to share a dinner with the family, or to join in a family celebration or to participate in a holiday tradition. If the Student and the Mentor do go out to dinner or visit a local attraction with an entrance fee, it is best for each person to pay their own way. The important point is to discuss this question and not to assume or to expect that either the Mentor or the Student will pay the bill.
How Can Students and Mentors Share their Experiences?
- Events The WC-ALL sponsors gatherings of Mentors and Students in the Fall and Spring – usually on campus. And the Chair of the WC-ALL International Student Mentoring Program usually hosts a party in the Fall.
- Facebook Page Mentors, current and former International Students in the Mentoring Program can also share their experiences by posting notes and photos on the Washington College Academy of Lifelong Learning Mentoring Program Facebook page ( ' list the Facebook page URL here ' )

text: Officials Order Sculptors to Remove Rabbit from Mandela's Ear UPDATE: Sculptors Apologize Print article Send a Tip by Joel B. Pollak 21 Jan 2014 post a comment South Africa's Department of Arts and Culture has written to the sculptors of that country's official statue of former President Nelson Mandela, demanding that they remove a small rabbit that they moulded in Mandela's ear. The sculptors, Andre Prinsloo and Ruhan Janse van Vuuren, created the rabbit in protest when they were not allowed to leave their signatures on the statue. The gesture was also a joke: the word for rabbit in Afrikaans is "haas," which is the same as the word for "haste," a reference to the tight deadline for finishing the statue. The 9-m (28-ft) statue was unveiled last month at the Union Buildings in Pretoria, South Africa's administrative capital, following Mandela's passing and funeral. The sculptors intended the rabbit to be very difficult to see, but local newspapers, including the Afrikaans-language Beeld, discovered their secret creation. The government is examining options for removing the rabbit as quickly as possible, and has apparently ordered the sculptors not to speak to the media, the Beeld reports--presumably because of the government's embarrassment. Update: The sculptors have apologized to the government, according to News24.com. Photo credit: Herman Steyn/RSG

"You Have A Excellent…"
In early April, Helen M. Plummer passed away. She wasn't a URI employee or alumna, but the campus mourned anyway.

Star Spangled Moment
Christopher Davey '16 sang the national anthem at Fenway May 4, kicking off a Red Sox-Athletics game as part of Rhode Island Day ceremonies.
The vocal performance major sang before his largest audience ever, a crowd of 30,000—although it's hard to say if it tops his duet with his brother in front of Pope Benedict XVI in Rome. "I hope to focus my adrenaline on making my family, my teachers, and URI proud," he said before the game. He delivered.
Farm Table
Christina (Estabrook) Allen '80 writes that she and her husband Frank—whom she met at URI—run a sustainable organic homestead and farm in southern Maryland that attracts visitors interested in kitchen gardening and sustainable living.

Elisa: It looks good on paper, and it sounds good. Win-win.
Erin: I love the way it sounds. It's solid, but not boring, IMO.

Joseph: It's soft and pretty, but still very masculine.
Thomas: It's dependable and smart.
Benjamin: Adorable. Great NN potential. Timeless.
David: Sweet and sensitive. Makes me think of an artistic kind of guy who remembers the little things that make you special, like how you take your coffee.
James: Another non-boring classic. Royal. Great name.
Michael: I like it because it's my dad's name.
Patrick: Sharp, witty, yet oddly soft-spoken. Mysterious.

One afternoon in September 1987, Secretary of State George Shultz settled in a chair across the table from Soviet Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze in a New York conference room. Both were in the city for the United Nations General Assembly.
As he habitually did at the start of such meetings, Shultz handed Shevardnadze a list of reported human rights abuses in the Soviet Union. Shevardnadze's predecessor, Andrei Gromyko, had always received such lists grudgingly and would lecture us for interfering in Soviet internal affairs.
Shevardnadze looked Shultz in the eye and said through his interpreter: George, I will check this out, and if your information is correct, I will do what I can to correct the problem. But I want you to know one thing: I am not doing this because you ask me to; I am doing it because it is what my country needs to do.
Shultz replied: Eduard, that's the only reason either of us should do something. I will never ask you to do something that I believe is not in your country's interest.
As I watched the scene, with as much emotion as amazement, it dawned on me that the Cold War was over.
I thought back to that moment as talks between Secretary of State John Kerry and Russia's top diplomat this past week failed to resolve the crisis in Ukraine. It's striking that the language being used publicly now is so much more strident than our language, public or private, was then.
Not a new Cold War
I don't believe we are witnessing a renewal of the Cold War. The tensions between Russia and the West are based more on misunderstandings, misrepresentations and posturing for domestic audiences than on any real clash of ideologies or national interests. And the issues are far fewer and much less dangerous than those we dealt with during the Cold War.
But a failure to appreciate how the Cold War ended has had a profound effect on Russian and Western attitudes – and helps explain what we are seeing now.
The common assumption that the West forced the collapse of the Soviet Union and thus won the Cold War is wrong. The fact is that the Cold War ended by negotiation to the advantage of both sides.
At the December 1989 Malta summit, Mikhail Gorbachev and President George H.W. Bush confirmed that the ideological basis for the war was gone, stating that the two nations no longer regarded each other as enemies. Over the next two years, we halted the arms race, banned chemical weapons and agreed to drastically reduce nuclear weapons. Without an arms race ruining the Soviet economy and perpetuating totalitarianism, Gorbachev was freed to focus on internal reforms.
Because the collapse of the Soviet Union happened so soon afterward, people often confuse it with the end of the Cold War. But they were separate, and the former was not an inevitable outcome of the latter.
Moreover, the breakup of the USSR into 15 separate countries was not something the United States caused or wanted. We hoped Gorbachev would forge a voluntary union of Soviet republics, minus the three Baltic countries. Russians who regret the collapse of the Soviet Union should remember that it was the elected leader of Russia, Boris Yeltsin, who conspired with his Ukrainian and Belarusian counterparts to replace the USSR with a loose and powerless commonwealth.
Even after the USSR ceased to exist, Gorbachev maintained that the end of the Cold War is our common victory. Yet the United States insisted on treating Russia as the loser.
By the grace of God, America won the Cold War, Bush said during his 1992 State of the Union address. That rhetoric would not have been particularly damaging on its own. But it was reinforced by actions taken under the next three presidents.
President Bill Clinton supported NATO's bombing of Serbia without U.N. Security Council approval and the expansion of NATO to include former Warsaw Pact countries. Those moves seemed to violate the understanding that the United States would not take advantage of the Soviet retreat from Eastern Europe. The effect on Russians' trust in the United States was devastating.
Enter Putin
Vladimir Putin was elected in 2000 and initially followed a pro-Western orientation. When terrorists attacked the United States on Sept. 11, 2001, he was the first foreign leader to call and offer support. He cooperated with the United States when it invaded Afghanistan, and he voluntarily removed Russian bases from Cuba and Cam Ranh Bay in Vietnam.
What did he get in return? Some meaningless praise from President George W. Bush, who then delivered the diplomatic equivalent of swift kicks to the groin: further expansion of NATO in the Baltics and the Balkans, and plans for American bases there; withdrawal from the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty; invasion of Iraq without U.N. Security Council approval; overt participation in the color revolutions in Ukraine, Georgia and Kyrgyzstan; and then, probing some of the firmest red lines any Russian leader would draw, talk of taking Georgia and Ukraine into NATO.
President Barack Obama famously attempted a reset of relations with Russia, with some success: The New START treaty was an important achievement, and there was increased quiet cooperation on a number of regional issues. But then Congress' penchant for minding other people's business when it cannot cope with its own began to take its toll. The Magnitsky Act, which singled out Russia for human rights violations as if there were none of comparable gravity elsewhere, infuriated Russia's rulers and confirmed with the broader public the image of the United States as an implacable enemy.
Poor relationship
The sad fact is that the cycle of dismissive actions by the United States met by overreactions by Russia has so poisoned the relationship that the quiet diplomacy used to end the Cold War was impossible when the crisis in Ukraine burst open.
Putin's military occupation of Crimea has exacerbated the situation. It may well result in a period of mutual recrimination and economic sanctions reminiscent of the Cold War. In that scenario, there would be no winners, only losers: most of all Ukraine itself, which may not survive in its present form, and Russia, which would become more isolated. Russia may also see a rise in terrorist acts from anti-Russian extremists on its periphery and more resistance from neighboring governments to membership in the economic union it is promoting.
Meanwhile, the United States and Europe would lose to the extent that a resentful Russia would make it even more difficult to address global and regional issues such as the Iranian nuclear program, North Korea and the Syrian civil war, to name a few. Russian policy in these areas has not always been all the United States desired, but it has been more helpful than many Americans realize. Encouraging a more obstructive Russia is not in anyone's interest.

Shaping the policy agenda

October 2014: Jean Tirole has won the Nobel prize in economics for his work on competition – and as the Economist writes: "Making sure companies compete fairly is a tricky business. The firms being regulated know far more about their business than those doing the regulating; bureaucrats can easily end up being too heavy-handed or too lax." Tirole developed a novel way of thinking about the difficulties regulators face managing newly liberalised industries... Read this full article
October 2014: The European Commission has decided that two telecoms markets should no longer be subject to regulation in Europe, and that two more should be redefined to reflect market and technology developments. The rules take effect immediately. The two liberated markets are the retail market for access to fixed telephony and the wholesale market for fixed call origination. The commission will also redefine two broadband markets to limit regulatory burdens to what is... Read this full article
October 2014: The European Commission has referred Belgium and Luxembourg to the European Court of Justice (EJC) over the alleged failings of their respective telecoms regulators, reports Total Telecom. "In its complaint against Belgium, the Commission claims that Belgian law does not guarantee the independence of its regulator, the Belgian Institute for Postal Services and Telecommunications (BIPT). Specifically, the law affords government ministers the option... Read this full article
October 2014: The GSMA and the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have set up the Centre of Excellence for Mobile Telecommunications Policy and Regulation in the Middle East and North Africa.

October 2014: Access, an international digital rights group, has published a blog on the European Parliament hearings for the new European commissioners. Andrus Ansip, the former Estonian prime minister, has been very clear on where he stands: "Data protection will be an important cornerstone of the digital internal market" and that it is essential to "protect everyone's privacy". In regards to the Safe Harbor agreement, "which has constantly been at the centre of... Read this full article
October 2014: "Sometimes I think the telecoms sector is its own worst enemy," said Neelie Kroes, the outgoing VP of the European Commission responsible for the digital agenda, when addressing the recent European Telecommunications Network Operators' Association (ETNO) summit.

October 2014: The executive director of public policy and regulation of the Telefónica group, Carlos Lopez Blanco, has called on watchdogs to stop regulating the telecoms market from the perspective of the existence of incumbents, which he defined as an "outdated" concept.

I would like to introduce Videotelling.
Videotelling is a project that combines storytelling, video narratives and video cameras. The project consists of the following:
- A YouTube channel where I post videos from the classroom (here)

Peter Bergen
|Peter Bergen
Peter Bergen giving a seminar in 2007
December 12, 1962
Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
|Journalist and author
Peter Bergen (born December 12, 1962) is a British-American[1] print and broadcast journalist, author, and CNN's national security analyst. In 1997, Bergen produced the first television interview with Osama bin Laden. The interview, which aired on CNN, marked the first time that bin Laden declared war against the United States to a Western audience. Bergen has written four books: Holy War, Inc.: Inside the Secret World of Osama bin Laden (2001), The Osama bin Laden I Know (2006), The Longest War: The Enduring Conflict Between America and al-Qaeda (2011),[2] and Manhunt: The Ten-Year Search for Bin Laden From 9/11 to Abbottabad (2012).
Bergen was born in Minneapolis, but grew up in London.[3] He attended Ampleforth College in North Yorkshire before receiving an Open Scholarship to New College, Oxford, in 1981, where he earned a Master of Arts in Modern History.
Bergen is a Vice President of New America, a non-partisan think tank in Washington, D.C.[4] He is also a research fellow at New York University's Center on Law and Security and CNN's national security analyst. In 2008, he was an adjunct lecturer at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University and an Adjunct Professor at the Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University (2003–07).
Bergen is on the editorial board of Studies in Conflict and Terrorism and has testified before several congressional committees, including the U.S. House of Representatives Homeland Security Committee and the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee. He is a member of the National Security Preparedness Group, a successor to the 9/11 Commission, and is the co-editor of the AfPak Channel, a joint publication of Foreign Policy and the New America Foundation.[5]
In 1994, he received the Overseas Press Club's Edward Murrow Award (OPC). Holy War, Inc. (2001) and The Osama bin Laden I Know (2006) were named among the best non-fiction books of the year by The Washington Post. Documentaries based on both books were nominated for Emmys in 2002 and 2007.[6] His third book is The Longest War: The Enduring Conflict between America and Al-Qaeda (2011), an overview of the War on Terror.
Bergen has reported on al-Qaeda, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq and counterterrorism and homeland security for a variety of American newspapers and magazines including The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, Foreign Affairs, The Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic, Rolling Stone, Time, The Nation, The National Interest, Mother Jones, Newsweek, and Vanity Fair. He is a contributing editor at The New Republic. His story on extraordinary rendition for Mother Jones was part of a package of stories nominated for a 2008 National Magazine Award.[7] He has also written for newspapers and magazines around the world such as The Guardian, The Times, The Daily Telegraph, International Herald Tribune, Prospect, El Mundo (Spain), la Repubblica, The National (Abu Dhabi), and Die Welt. He has worked as a correspondent for National Geographic Channel and Discovery Channel, and CNN. On May 2, 2011, shortly after it was reported that Osama bin Laden had been killed, Bergen stated on CNN: "Killing bin Laden is the end of the War on Terror. We can just sort of announce that right now."[8] He co-produced the National Geographic Channel Documentary, the American War Generals (2014).[9]
Bergen is married to the documentary director/producer Tresha Mabile. They have two children, Pierre Timothy Bergen and Grace Donovan Bergen.[10]

Sys admin: friend or foe?
The first line of defense for almost every organization is typically the system administrator. This is the person that actively interacts with the company network on a daily basis, and by extension has intimate knowledge of it. So it stands to reason that this person would hopefully be the first to notice any signs of possible compromise would it not? Sadly that is often not the case. Whether it is due to a lack of IT Training, complacency, or laziness is anyones guess.
