In this episode of Gangland Wire, host Gary Jenkins welcomes Anthony Pesare, a retired Rhode Island State Police Intelligence officer turned crime novelist. Gary and Anthony dive into the notorious Providence neighborhood of Federal Hill, a hotbed of mob activity. Anthony offers first-hand stories of surveillance, navigating tight-knit communities, and the challenge of identifying criminals who blend seamlessly into everyday life. He based his recent true-crime novel, They Always Win, on the exploits of Frank “Bobo” Marrapese Jr., a member of the New England Mafia Family led by Raymond Patriarca in the Federal Hill neighborhood. Anthony also wrote Back in the Game in his series on Gino Peterson, a Rhode Island State trooper investigating organized crime. He recounts one of his most notable cases involving a coin shop owner named Stephen Saccoccia, who orchestrated a sophisticated multimillion-dollar money laundering scheme using “Smurfs” to move drug money back to Colombia. When a low-level Providence area mobster tried to move in and extract a tribute, Saccoccia made one phone call, and the guy backed off. It's a fascinating look into how organized crime adapts and evades detection. After retiring from law enforcement, Anthony served as a professor and dean at Roger Williams University before returning to police work as the Chief of Police in  Middletown, Rhode Island. These experiences further enriched his understanding of police culture—something he brings vividly to life in his fiction. His debut novel, They Always Win, features Detective Gino Peterson, a character shaped by Anthony's real-world insights. Through Gino, Anthony explores themes like addiction, loyalty, and psychological strain—pressures many officers face behind the badge. The novel includes storylines inspired by the murder of mob figure Richard “Dickey” Calley, with confidential informants and witness protection playing key roles in the investigation. Gary and Anthony's conversation blends crime history, insider law enforcement tales, and the craft of crime fiction. They reflect on the bonds between officers, the emotional toll of the job, and the blurred lines between fact and fiction when writing from experience. Don't miss this episode if you're fascinated by mob history, police intelligence work, or how real investigations can fuel gripping crime novels. Subscribe to get gangster stories weekly.

Transcript [0:00] Well, hey, all you wiretappers, it's good to be back here in studio on Gangland Wire. I have a man today who has a career somewhat similar to mine. He was with the Rhode Island State Police Intelligence Unit, Anthony Passare. Anthony, welcome. Thank you very much. It's a pleasure to be here. Thanks for the invitation. Love to talk about this stuff with you. Yeah, this has got to be fun, guys. It's going to be fun. I always like having these ex-intelligence unit mob cops on here because we have so much in common. It's like, you know, it's like we work together almost, but yet in different parts of the country. Now, Anthony is writing some books right now. He's turned a lot of his old experiences into fictional books with a fictional detective, but it's all based on real events. We'll talk about those books a little bit more later on. Anthony, you served, you were a college dean or a college professor, and you became a chief of police, and now you're writing novels. So tell the guys a little bit about your basic history. [0:59] Sure.

1980 - Newport, Rhode Island. On the morning of March 22, 1980, the nude body of 19-year-old Diane Drake washed up on Easton's Beach between Middletown and Newport, RI. She had vanished the night before on her way to work. Forty-five years later, her killer remains at large. Yet, despite the passage of time, Diane's family continues to seek answers and keep her memory alive—though justice today may not look the same as it did in 1980. In Part 2 of Diane's story, we explore the final hours before her disappearance, revelations from her autopsy, and the theories that could finally bring her case closer to justice.

1980 - Newport, Rhode Island. On March 21, 1980, as wind and rain swept through Middletown, Rhode Island, 19-year-old Diane Drake got ready for work. But she never made it there. The next morning, her nude body washed up on Easton's Beach. Witnesses later reported seeing Diane the night she disappeared, walking—and even hitchhiking—along the three-mile route to work despite the harsh weather. But Diane had always warned her younger sister, Jean, never to hitchhike. Would she have ignored her own advice? Forty-five years later, Jean is still searching for answers. And to this day, she believes one thing: Diane Drake knew her killer.

How can architecture firms successfully transition to a hybrid work model that balances flexibility, connection, and structure?In this episode of Practice Disrupted, we explore hybrid work models in architecture firms, using the firm Shepley Bulfinch as an example. We're joined by three leaders from Shepley Bulfinch: Jenn Zagarella, Vice President of Administration; Jim Martin, Vice President and CIO; and Jim Chambers, Vice President of Practice Management. Together, they discuss how architecture firms can navigate the challenges of staying connected in today's evolving workplace through hybrid models.First, the panel provides an overview of Shepley's pre-pandemic work environment, focusing on the strong foundations the firm established and how these prepared them for a smooth transition to hybrid work. Jenn, Jim, and Jim share the strategies, tools, and technologies Shepley uses to build a cohesive, flexible work environment.Then, we explore how Shepley's hybrid model supports effective communication, continuous learning, location-based needs, and a sense of community. They also discuss the tech required to support their model and highlight the importance of defining what hybrid work means for your specific firm.Our hybrid model has helped to really reinforce, and in some ways, formally articulate the flexibility and the trust that we place into our people. It's helped us to be able to hire people that don't happen to be close to one of our studios. It's actually, in a few cases, allowed us to bring people back that we were sad to lose. Now that we're capable and comfortable working in a different manner, we can, we can bring them back. - Jim Chamber To wrap up the conversation, the group reflects on the impact of hybrid work on Shepley's culture, trust, and connections. They also address common questions and concerns leaders may have when implementing a hybrid model in their practice.Tune in next week for a conversation with an architect turned UX Strategist.

In the first four months of this presidential election year, nearly 5.5 million legal firearms were purchased in the US, according to FBI data, while the candidates from both major parties have starkly different positions on gun control.根据联邦调查局的数据，2024年上半年，美国购买了近550万支合法枪支，而民主党和共和党的两方候选人在枪支管制方面的立场截然不同。Vice-President Kamala Harris, the Democratic candidate, advocates stricter regulations, while Republican candidate and former president Donald Trump is pro-gun rights. These contrasting stances are already resonating differently with likely voters.民主党候选人副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯（Kamala Harris）主张制定更严格的规定，而共和党候选人、前总统唐纳德·特朗普则支持枪支权利。双方立场在选民中引发了不同反应。David Liu, owner of Arcadia Firearm & Safety in Arcadia, California, serves a predominantly Asian community 30 minutes from Monterey Park, where a tragic mass shooting during a Chinese New Year Festival left 11 dead and nine injured last year.大卫·刘（David·Liu）是位于加利福尼亚州阿卡迪亚枪械与安全公司的所有者，该公司为其附近的亚裔社区提供服务。而在2023年中国新年期间发生的悲剧性大规模枪击事件造成11人死亡，9人受伤。"I'm a Trump supporter. And it's not because (Republicans) support guns that I vote for them. Because I look overall on the candidates. I prefer Trump's overall policy," Liu said. "I will not vote for a guy just because he said he supports guns. That's not the point of voting for the president."大卫·刘表示：“我是特朗普的支持者。我投票给他并不是因为（共和党人）支持枪支，而是因为我更喜欢特朗普的整体政策。我不会仅仅因为一个人说他支持枪支就投票给他，这并不是总统大选的意义所在。”Liu said that over the past two months, his sales have been slow, attributing it to a new 11 percent tax on gun sales and ammunition imposed in July by California's Democrat-controlled legislature to fund violence prevention. This is in addition to the existing federal tax of 10 or 11 percent on firearms.在过去的两个月里，大卫·刘的枪支销售趋于平缓，这是由于加州由民主党控制的立法机构于7月对枪支销售和弹药征收了11%的新税，以此预防暴力行为，这也是对现有枪支10%-11%联邦税的补充。About 16.7 million firearms were sold in the United States last year, a 4 percent decline from 2022, according to SafeHome.org, which analyzed the FBI's national instant background-check data.根据SafeHome.org的数据，去年美国售出约1670万支枪支，较2022年下降了 4%，该数据分析了FBI在全美背景下的调查数据。The National Shooting Sports Foundation found that firearm sales to Asian Americans rose by 43 percent in 2020 compared with 2019, a response to a rise in hate crimes against the community during the pandemic.美国国家射击运动基金会（National Shooting Sports Foundation）表示，与2019年相比，2020年向亚裔美国人出售的枪支增长了43%，这是针对疫情期间社区仇恨犯罪增加所给予的回应。The US has more guns than people, with estimates ranging from 425 million to 475 million in a country of 333 million people as of 2022.美国的枪支数量已超过其人口，截至2022年，美国人口近3.33亿，枪支数量在 4.25亿至4.75亿之间。A Quinnipiac University poll conducted in June found that only 4 percent of likely voters considered gun violence the most important issue in choosing a president, with the economy taking precedence.昆尼皮亚克大学（Quinnipiac University）6月进行的一项民意调查发现，只有 4%的潜在选民认为枪支暴力是选择总统时最重要的问题，大部分选民认为经济优先。Nearly half of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents own a gun, compared with 20 percent of Democrats and those who lean liberal, Pew Research Center found.皮尤研究中心（Pew Research Center）发现，近半数共和党和倾向共和党的独立人士拥有枪支，而民主党人和倾向于枪支自由的人仅占20%。Carl Bogus, a law professor at Roger Williams University in Rhode Island, told China Daily that the Republican Party considers the gun lobby to be an "essential" part of its political coalition.罗杰·威廉姆斯大学（Roger Williams University）的法学教授卡尔·博格斯（Carl Bogus）在接受《中国日报》采访时表示，共和党认为枪支游说是其政治联盟的“必不可少”的一部分。Trump has called himself "the best friend gun owners have ever had in the White House". He told an audience in February at the National Rifle Association's Great American Outdoor Show in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, that "no one will lay a finger on your firearms" if he wins.特朗普称共和党是“枪支拥有者在白宫有史以来最好的朋友”。今年2月，他在宾夕法尼亚州哈里斯堡举行的全国步枪协会（National Rifle Association）美国户外展上对观众说，如果他赢得本次总统选举，“没有人会对你的枪支动手脚”。In his administration, Trump reversed a law that restricted people with mental illness to purchase a gun, and banned bump stocks that can convert semiautomatic weapons into a machine gun-like weapon. In June, the Supreme Court lifted the ban, citing the Second Amendment of the Constitution.在其共和党政府中，特朗普推翻了限制精神疾病患者购买枪支的法律，并禁止将半自动武器转化为类似机枪武器的撞枪托。6月，最高法院援引宪法第二修正案解除了禁令。Harris, head of the first White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention, has repeatedly discussed more gun control on the campaign trail and held a summit against gun violence in Atlanta in June.哈里斯是第一届白宫枪支暴力预防办公室的负责人，她在竞选过程中多次讨论加强枪支管制，并于6月在亚特兰大举行了反对枪支暴力的峰会。On Wednesday, after four people were killed in a school shooting in Georgia, Harris addressed gun violence at schools.在佐治亚州发生校园枪击事件造成4人死亡后，哈里斯谈到了校园枪支暴力问题。"It's just outrageous that every day in our country ... that parents have to send their children to school worried about whether or not their child will come home alive," she said. "It doesn't have to be this way."“在我们国家，父母需要每天送孩子上学，担心他们的孩子是否能活着回家。”哈里斯表示，“事情本不该是这样的。”This year, there have been at least 384 mass shootings — defined as a shooting involving at least four victims, dead or wounded — across the US, and at least 11,557 people have been killed in firearms violence this year in the country, according to the Gun Violence Archive.根据枪支暴力档案（Gun Violence Archive）的数据，今年美国至少发生了384 起大规模枪击事件（涉及至少4名受害者、死亡或受伤的枪击事件）。2024年该国至少有11557人死于枪支暴力。

Scott Bennett is the Program Director for the Marine Biologic Lab's Striped Bass Magic research program and the MBL's Marine Resources Department manager. He grew up in Chicago fishing in freshwater lakes. As a teenager, he started coming to Cape Cod during the summers, where he developed a love for saltwater fishing.

Prior to graduate school, he spent several years at the American Museum of Natural History in the Department of Ichthyology, assisting with research on understanding the evolutionary relationships between various species of fish. Marine Biologic Lab's Striped Bass Magic research program is doing great work to better understand the biology and movements of striped bass. They conduct their ongoing research in an eel pond which is home to a seasonally resident striped bass population, some of which have returned to this same pond for multiple years in a row. the longitudinal data they have collected has been very beneficial to understanding striped bass biology and movements. If you want to learn more about their research, check out the Striped Bass Magic website The discussion covers a range of topics including the behavior, migration, and habits of striped bass in various environments. Bennett elaborates on the research methodologies used, including PIT and acoustic telemetry tags, and their findings, such as the correlation between striped bass movements and barometric pressure. The conversation also delves into the application of AI in fish identification and a collaborative research project with the Wampanoag tribe at Squibnocket. Jenkins and Bennett reflect on how this extensive research can influence recreational fishing practices. 00:36 Meet Today's Guest: Marine Biologist Scott Bennett 02:37 The Striped Bass Magic Research Program 05:03 Tagging Techniques and Tools 08:04 Behavioral Patterns and Circadian Rhythms 24:26 Individual vs. Group Behavior 29:56 Investigating Striped Bass Migrations 31:06 Experiments with Fingerlings and Iron Deposits 32:48 Adult Fish and Electromagnetic Field Experiments 33:45 Tagging and Tracking Striped Bass 38:48 AI in Fish Identification 45:10 Collaborative Research with Squibnocket Native American Tribe 52:33 Concluding Thoughts and Future Research

On episode 20 of the Brand Slam podcast, host Steve Rosa is joined by a standout group of interns from the (add)prentice summer 2024 program: Jessica Kalmowitz, Ella Waryas and Kenzie Freedman. A major focus of the discussion is on brand authenticity and the critical role it plays in today's marketing landscape. The interns delve into how brands can build genuine connections with their audiences and why transparency is key. They explore how their generation, often termed “the anxious generation,” values honesty and open dialogue, and how brands can adapt to meet these expectations. Having grown up with challenges such as Covid-19 school closings, the trauma of school and mass shootings and the pervasive influence of growing up on screens, their perspectives offer valuable insights into the importance of trust and authenticity. They share their skepticism towards overly polished influencer endorsements and emphasize the importance of relatable and honest content in fostering trust with consumers. The conversation also touches on how (add)ventures prioritizes trust and authenticity within its own company culture and extends these values to its external brand strategies. Our summer interns were the best cohort ever. Jessica, a rising senior at the University of Maryland majoring in public relations with a business minor, has played a key role in developing engaging content for both clients and internal communication initiatives. Ella, a graphic design major and athlete from Roger Williams University, has significantly impacted the team through her design skills and leadership. Kenzie, an incoming junior at Penn State majoring in public relations with a minor in recreation, park and tourism management, has brought a fresh and creative perspective to the marketing team.

Matt Rienzi began his tenure as the Assistant Baseball Coach at Roger Williams University during the 2023 season and is the new Head Coach of the Ocean State Waves of the New England Collegiate Baseball League. Matt sat down with us in Dallas for a great conversation.

Nicholas Alahverdian's obituary appeared on a memorial site called Ever Loved. It detailed how the man, who grew up in foster care became a Harvard Graduate and a vocal critic of Rhode Island's childcare system after suffering sexual abuse as a child.  It also detailed how Alahverdian died of Hodgin's Lymphoma at 32 years old, leaving behind a wife and two young children who remained at his bedside as he died. Alahverdian's death was a lie, an elaborate scheme created by Nicholas Rossi, a man charged with sexually assaulting a former girlfriend in Orem, Utah as well as multiple complaints against him in Rhode Island for alleged domestic violence.  David Rossi, the stepfather says at an early age Nicholas would hit his mother, grandmother, and siblings, and wouldn't listen in school. Alahverdian was placed in psychiatric care. Nicholas Alahverdian, using the name Rossi, was accused of assaulting a young woman he met at Sinclair Community College in Ohio. The two had lunch together.  Alahverdian offered to walk the co-ed to her next class. The coed claims Alahverdian then pinned her against a wall in a basement, groped her, and masturbated. Alahverdian apologized and asked the girl not to tell anybody. She made a police report and Alahverdian, aka Rossi, was convicted of public indecency and sexual imposition, and was required to register as a sex offender. Two years later, police are called to an apartment in Rhode Island.  Officers can hear arguing and screaming. When a woman comes to the door, she has marks on her face neck, and left eye and her right eye is swelling. The woman tells police she and Alahverdian were arguing and when she tried to leave he slapped her in the face. Police arrest Alahverdian who proclaims his innocence and begins banging his head on the bars in the back of the squad car. Officers have to use pepper spray to make him stop trying to hurt himself. Alahverdian pleads no-contest to domestic simple assault. Testing reveals Alahverdian's DNA is present in a rape case, and other allegations have already been lodged. Fraud charges also land in Alahverdian's lap, and this is when he fakes his death and heads overseas. The death of Nicholas Alahverdian is met with skepticism.  Alahverdian's foster mother Sharon Lane said she was contacted by Alahverdian's biological mother.   The minute Sharon Lane read the obituary, she believed it was written by Alahverdian himself. Utah authorities continued investigating the first rape allegation against Nicholas Alahverdian and issued a warrant for his arrest seven months after he supposedly died. An FBI search of Alahverdian's iCloud account and cell phone records led investigators to Scotland. As investigations were looking for Nicholas Alahverdian and Nichols Rossi in the United States, a man named Arthur Knight was being treated for Covid-19 at Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, Glasgow.  He had been living a happy new life,  married a woman named Miranda, and worked as a tutor, but then he suffered a serious case of pneumonitis, caused by Covid-19. Someone recognized him through his distinctive tattoos. They were a match to those from a Pawtucket police booking photo of him.  In December 2021,  they arrested the convicted sex offender in the Glasgow hospital. Authorities say Knight was just one of Alahverdian's 16 known aliases, which include Nicholas Rossi, Nicholas Brown, Arthur Brown, and Arthur Knight-Brown. Nicholas Alahverdian fought extradition back to the US.  For over two years, Alahverdian exhausted every legal avenue available in the UK. Ultimately the courts ruled he was a wanted fugitive and agreed to the United States' request to send him home.  Joining Nancy Grace Today: Greg Ahlgren  – International Attorney-at-Law at the US-MX Law Group, Ltd. & DRT Alliance/Diaz Reus International Law Firm Dr. Jeff Kieliszewski  - Forensic Psychologist, Author: " Dark Sides;" YouTube: Dr. Jeff Kieliszewski,  rv Brandt – Senior Inspector, US Marshals Service International Investigations Branch; Chief Inspector, DOJ Office of International Affairs, US Embassy Kingston, Jamaica; Author: “SOLO SHOT: CURSE OF THE BLUE STONE” – AVAILABLE ON AMAZON IN JANUARY; ALSO “FLYING SOLO: Top of the World;” Twitter: @JackSoloAuthor Brett Brown - Executive Director of SASS Go (Surviving Assault Standing Strong, a Nonprofit on a mission to eradicate abuse, trafficking, and violence against women and girls globally; @sassgoglobal on FB, Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok  Tim White - Investigative Reporter and Managing Editor for WPRI-TV (A CBS News affiliate), Co-Author: “The Last Good Heist: The Inside Story of The Biggest Single Payday in the Criminal History of the Northeast;" Adjunct Professor of Journalism at Roger Williams University in RI; X: @timwhiteRI, FB: Tim White-WPRI   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, Dr. Philip Chan sits down with Johnson and Wales University's Korina Ramsland Short and Roger Williams University's Dr. Jen Stanley to discuss a serious topic before the start of the fall semester. It can be difficult and uncomfortable to discuss, but it is important to talk about it openly and honestly. The topic? Sexual violence prevention. According to the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network (RAINN), every 68 seconds an American is sexually assaulted.  What conversations can parents and other adults have with young people to help them avoid becoming a statistic? What is being done to make college campuses safer for students? How can we normalize conversations around consent?  Download this episode of Public Health Out Loud to hear what some local experts have to say. 

On this episode of the IoT: The Internet of Threats podcast, host Eric Greenwald and Larry Pesce (Finite State Director of Product Security Research and Analysis) delve into the recently announced U.S. Cyber Trust Mark, a cybersecurity labeling program for IoT devices - a long-anticipated directive of Executive Order 14028.   Larry and Eric explore how, in contrast to static ratings like ENERGY STAR, this dynamic IoT security score will attempt to reflect the continually evolving landscape of cybersecurity threats and controls. They delve into the efficacy of this voluntary labeling program: Will consumers use it? Will manufacturers comply (and raise prices) or ignore it?   Together, Larry and Eric discuss the initial criteria for assigning these security scores and the user-friendly implementation strategies like QR codes. They also tackle the implications of this program on various connected devices, from baby monitors to solar panels, analyzing whether this voluntary program will see widespread adoption across various industries with varied potential risks (from privacy violations to deadly fires).   In the discussion, Larry turns the tables and asks Eric about the FCC's unexpected role in enforcing IoT labeling compliance and how this labeling initiative aligns with the broader trend towards transparency and accountability in device security regulation and progress.    Interview with Larry Pesce    Since joining Finite State, Larry has been providing expert product security program design and development as well as IoT pen testing services and guidance to product security teams worldwide. He is also a Certified Instructor at the SANS Institute and has co-hosted the Paul's Security Weekly podcast since 2005. Before joining Finite State, Larry spent 15 years as a penetration tester (among other various roles) focused on healthcare, ICS/OT, wireless, and IoT/IIoT embedded devices. Larry holds several GIAC certifications and earned his B.S. in Computer Information Systems from Roger Williams University.    Join in on this insightful discussion where Eric and Larry consider: Similarities and differences between the IoT labeling and ENERGY STAR rating programs  The need to reflect the ever-changing nature of cybersecurity risk and controls within cybersecurity scores  How, and how much, consumers will actually use the score and value higher-rated devices Criteria considered when assigning the scores and where labels will appear  The varying impacts of a voluntary IoT labeling program on consumer vs. industrial connected device cybersecurity The surprising role of the FCC as the enforcing regulator for IoT labeling compliance   Find Larry on LinkedIn: Larry Pesce: https://linkedin.com/in/larrypesce   Learn more about Finite State: https://finitestate.io/   Thank you for listening to this episode of the IoT: The Internet of Threats podcast, powered by Finite State — the leading supply chain cyber-security solution provider for connected devices and embedded systems.   If you enjoyed this episode, click subscribe to stay connected and leave a review to get the word out about the podcast.   To learn more about building a robust software supply chain security program, protecting your connected devices, and complying with emerging regulations and technical standards, visit https://finitestate.io/

On this week's Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, continues an exciting summer series of interviews with local women/fem artists who are all engaged in some form of struggle for social justice and are all featured in an exhibit called “We Don't Wither,” on display at the Muhammad Ali Center April 1 - December 18, 2023. We Don't Wither examines the intersection of art and activism. The artists have created pieces that respond to current socio-cultural and -political situations, lived experiences, and related current events — to see our world and our community through their unique perspectives. The intention is to celebrate the often unheard experiences, opinions, feelings, and perspectives from those who work, create, and fight in our city; to share their artwork and views with visitors; and to provide a space for conversation and reflection. This exhibit is included in the regular price of admission, but you can see it for free and meet the artists themselves during the upcoming ARTIST SHOWCASES: Shauntrice Martin July 29 LaNia Roberts August 12 Joanne Weis August 26 Morgan McGill September 30 Nikki Douglas October 28 Learn more at: https://alicenter.org/muhammad-ali-center-announces-new-temporary-exhibit-featuring-louisville-area-artists/ This week, we interview LaNia Roberts, an artist who was born in 1996 and raised in the West End of Louisville. As a young black girl who struggled with her identity, she discovered in visual art a creative outlet for self-expression that would prove to be transformative. After several years in Louisville Visual Art's Children Fine Art Classes and attending Kentucky Governor School for the Arts, she graduated from Central High School in 2014. With multiple scholarships and as a first generation college student, she entered Syracuse University in New York to study painting and was very active in student organizations becoming President of the Black Artist League for 3 years, as well as singing in the Black Celestial Choral Ensemble and more. While studying at Syracuse, LaNia continued to exhibit work throughout the Louisville area in spaces like the Carnegie Center for Art & History in New Albany and 1619 Flux Art & Activism. During her junior year of college, LaNia was the first ever in her family to travel abroad. She lived and studied painting, photography, and sculpture in Florence, Italy, and took a 4-month art history class throughout Greece. She soon was invited back to Italy to attend art workshops led by master professors taught in Tuscany, Italy in 2017 and 2018. At the end of her senior year, LaNia lived and worked in New York City with internships at Creative Capital and the Ronald Feldman Art Gallery. During the fall of 2018 LaNia lived and studied Human Rights & Multiculturalism for a full semester in Cape Town, South Africa. She has traveled to a total of 13 countries within the past 5 years. LaNia completed her degree in Painting in 2019. Since traveling and graduating, LaNia has moved back to Louisville. Recently invited to speak at Roger Williams University in Bristol, RI, LaNia was flown out to present her artwork and to talk about “Decolonizing the Art World as a Black Woman” to college students. She continues to exhibit work throughout KY and is thrilled to have the opportunity to give back to her community as much as her community has given to her.

On February 6, 1997, 18-year old Bryan Nisenfeld sat in his afternoon literature class at Roger Williams University in Providence, Rhode Island. Bryan was acting differently during class that day, almost despondent. Where he went after class, what the final moments of his life entailed, is still a mystery. He was simply never seen or heard from again. He never returned to the campus or even to his dorm room. His bank account showed no activity. He didn't call home. Roger Williams University did not notify Bryan's family of their son's disappearance for almost a week.Months later, as summer was coming to an end, a family walking along the shore of Hog Island came upon a lone hiking boot. Inside was a wool sock and a severed foot. 2- DNA tests eventually confirmed the remains to be those of Bryan Nisenfeld. What really happened to Bryan Nisenfeld? Whether an accident, a self-made choice, or foul play, Bryan's parents hold steadfast to their belief that more could have been done if only Bryan's disappearance had been reported to police, or to them, and acted upon much sooner. At the very least, maybe they would have some answers.If you have information that could help bring a conclusion to Bryan Nisenfeld's case, please call 877-RI-SOLVE.Shop Sarah Madeira Day with code: DOWNEAST for 20% off your order of unstretched and paper printsView source material and photos for this episode at darkdowneast.comFollow @darkdowneast on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTokTo suggest a case, email hello@darkdowneast.comSupport Dark Downeast on Buy Me a CoffeeShop Dark Downeast merch at darkdowneast.com/shop

My guest today and I almost met in 1999 in Columbus Isle, but just missed each other by a few weeks. G.O.'s spoke often of my nicknamed guest over the years, so I feel like I knew him a little. After the interview, we realized that we attended the same EXGO Reunion in 2008 in Cancun! His first season was in Club Med Turks and Caicos for the 1989/1990 season as a Scuba G.O., with Kenton Smith as his Chief of Sports. He was born in New York, grew up in the UK, and now lives in Mallorca. His rather long and amazing name is Nick Stael von Holstein, but you probably know him by another name. Please help me welcome to the podcast, the one and only, Winnie!! Winnie worked for Club Med from 1989 to 2000 in such villages as St. Lucia, Cancun, Playa Blanca, Martinique, Sonora Bay, and Columbus Isle. Before Club Med, Winnie graduated with a Marine Biology degree from Roger Williams University in Rhode Island and became a scuba instructor at just 18 years old. And, as it turns out, one of my favorite people in Club Med, gave Winnie his nickname within 24 hours of Winnie arriving in Turks! If you were an early 90s G.O., then you will love this episode. Winnie name-drops so many people from his past, it will make your head spin how many legends he has worked with-Cowboy, Jean-Paul Morales, Hammer, Kevin Batt, Red, Cheez, Jenner, Sparrow, Lisa Henson (my 1st boss!), Hansel Moss, Angie Boucher, Grant Simmons, Roast Beef, Scotty De Palma, Flower, Eric Turner and Dave the Wave, to name but a few. As you can imagine, Winnie is here to share stories and does not disappoint! Too many to recount here in this small space, but the stories that stuck out for me personally were happy hour at “The House of Kos” in St. Lucia in 1992, Hammer's wedding in Turks in 1997 (and that same season he cut a very famous G.O's long “Red” hair) and a Christmas Day scuba dive in Cancun in 1997 with a school of dolphins that will give you goosebumps. Please enjoy this episode with Winnie!!**My First Season podcast has always been ad-free and free to listen to and is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Samsung Podcasts, Podbean App, Spotify, Amazon Music/Audible, TuneIn + Alexa, iHeartRadio, PlayerFM, Pandora and Listen Notes.

February 6, 1997. Bristol, Rhode Island. Bryan Nisenfeld, an 18-year old freshman at Roger Williams University, vanishes after leaving an afternoon class and most of his possessions are found in his dorm room. Nearly seven months later, a severed foot and a shinbone are found washed up on a beach located a few miles from campus and while they are positively identified as belonging to Bryan, the rest of his remains are never recovered. Suspicion is placed on a former student and friend of Bryan's who supposedly made a threatening phone call to him prior to his disappearance, but there is no evidence to prove that foul play took place. Was Bryan Nisenfield's death a homicide, a suicide or an accidental fall into the water? On this week's episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a cold case involving a university student which still does not a definitive resolution after nearly 26 years. If you have any information about this case, please contact the Bristol Police Department at (401) 253-6900.

In this latest publication in the TII Heritage series, the long prehistory of Kells and its hinterland is shown to be written on the landscape in foundation trenches and boundary ditches, pits, post-holes, hearths, and myriad other marks of human life, which were discovered along the route of the M3 Clonee to Kells motorway project and recorded by an archaeological team from Irish Archaeological Consultancy Ltd. The story begins with Mesolithic hunter-gatherers and continues, chapter by chapter, over a span of c. 5,000 years, recording the homes, burial grounds, work and worship of Neolithic, Bronze Age and Iron Age communities and bringing us at last to the threshold of history, in the Iron Age/early medieval transition period. Kells was not yet the seat of a famous monastery at that time but had already become a central place in the region, with a tribal capital at Commons of Lloyd, on the hill that overlooks the town today. The Road to Kells: Prehistoric Archaeology of the M3 Navan to Kells and N52 Kells Bypass Road Project, is available now through Wordwell Books and Transport Infrastructure Ireland. Fintan Walsh has been a professional field archaeologist for over 20 years. He studied Archaeology and Palaeoecology at Queen's University Belfast, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in 1997. He has published numerous papers and reports on his fieldwork in Ireland and is especially interested in Early Neolithic and early medieval archaeology. Fintan currently works as a full-time archaeological project manager and lives in Limerick City. Dr. Danica Ramsey-Brimberg is a multidisciplinary researcher of the early medieval period, who is the Coordinator for Digital Engagement of the International Society of Medieval Art and an Adjunct Professor at Roger Williams University.

On this episode of the IoT: The Internet of Threats podcast, host Eric Greenwald sits down with Larry Pesce, a lifelong tinkerer whose obsession with how things work led him to his role as Finite State's new Product Security and Analysis Director. Together they explore how Larry began his long and accomplished career as a pen tester and security and research expert. Eric and Larry also examine the pressure that lower production budgets impose on product security professionals, the questionable value of regulation as a catalyst to drive product security investment and improvements, and the potential role SBOMs can play in cybersecurity.     Interview with Larry Pesce    Since joining Finite State, Larry has been serving as a senior consultant, providing expert product security program design and development and IoT pen testing guidance and services to product security teams worldwide. He is also a Certified Instructor at the SANS Institute and has co-hosted the Paul's Security Weekly podcast since 2005. Before joining Finite State, Larry spent 15 years as a penetration tester (amongst his various roles) focused on healthcare, ICS/OT, wireless, and IoT/IIoT embedded devices. Larry holds several GIAC certifications and earned his B.S. in Computer Information Systems from Roger Williams University.    In this episode, Eric and Larry discuss: What it was like to pioneer the Paul's Security Weekly podcast in the early days of podcasting (and co-hosting the show for the last 17 years!) How Larry's early interest in taking things apart led to a career in embedded device security and, eventually, to Finite State How the drive to lower production costs pressures manufacturers to sacrifice invisible differentiators like product security Whether regulation can serve as an effective mechanism in encouraging product security improvements How companies can work to overcome the complexities of product security programs The SBOM as a product security tool and whether it could also be a roadmap attackers can use to target your connected device ecosystem   Find Larry on LinkedIn: Larry Pesce: https://www.linkedin.com/in/larry-pesce-6715b73/   Learn more about Finite State: https://finitestate.io/   Thank you for listening to this episode of the IoT: The Internet of Threats podcast, powered by Finite State — the leading supply chain cyber-security solution provider for connected devices and embedded systems.   If you enjoyed this episode, click subscribe to stay connected and leave a review to get the word out about the podcast.   To learn more about building a robust product security program, protecting your connected devices, and complying with emerging regulations and technical standards, visit https://finitestate.io/
