Russian/East European Restaurant for Russian/East Euro Social Function in Vancouver?

What's a good Russian, Ukrainian or East European restaurant in Vancouver to have a russian/ukrainian/east european social function.



I'm looking for a place that has a bit of younger crowd, 20's, that is not too small and very clean. I'm thinking of having an event that's going to be more of a business/networking or career based, but the people are going to be mostly younger, in their twenties.



Some russian people also come from places like Ukraine, Belorussia, Syberia or other parts of the world, but still identify themselves as distinctively russian. Please suggest any other places, other than a restaurant if you have any ideas.

We always go to the Ukrainian Village Restaurant located at Robson %26amp; Davie in Vancouver. The location is convenient, the food is delicious and the staff are committed to making your evening there enjoyable.



I give it 4 stars.

There used to be a Russian place on Main Street around 12th. I don't remember the name and don't know if it's still there, but the food was very good.

Why and what do people like about 'friend networking sites' like friendster, myspace, etc?

Here is the catch: why do and what do people like about "friend networking sites" like friendster, myspace, etc; to the point that they will spend an entire session just browsing those sites- looking at pictures, uploading, accepting invites from complete strangers and even giving testimonials to complete strangers and other related things?



I have seen people in an internet cafe browsing these sites and after five or six hours, they are still there- still browsing those said sites. this is also a predominant problem in the college computer laboratory where i am, forcing us to block those said sites- and forcing those blocked to seek other ways- usually via proxy sites.



I expect clear answers- not the ones that you can come up so easily like 'because you can meet other people' and 'its fun'.



It's becoming a social 'problem' - instead of the norm greetings and question, often the first question is 'do you have friendster'.



Thank you for your time.

Kids, I know you're not going to like this answer, but the fact is MySpace and sites like friendster appeal to minors, especially young teens for one reason. The greatest desire of teens is to belong. It doesn't matter what you belong to as long as you know others respect you. The term "friends" on MySpace can mean anything from someone you actually know to a band trying to pimp their music out for free. But that is exactly what kids want, the kids with the most friends is the coolest.



Rupert Murdoch knew this when he purchased MySpace last year from Tom for a whooping 588 Million dollars. At that time MySpace was the number 5 most visited site, now it is #1 in the world. For those that don;t know Rupert Murdoch, he is the chairman of News Corp and makes money every single time you visit a MySpace page. With over 80 Million users oblivious to the actually point of MySpace, ie. Ad revenue, Murdoch is laughing his way to the bank. Good luck in your search for answers.

I'm on one of those sites and it's to stay in touch with cousins and friends I don't see often or people that don't live near me. I usually don't accept anyone as a friend that I don't actually know. It seems to me a lot of people on those sites want to be your friend just so they have a large number of friends. I seriously wonder why these people ask to be my friend when I look at their page and there are no similar interests, etc.
I'm not really sure why people need those sites either. But i think, for the same reason people chat and blog. For me, i still opt for emails, you know, for friends' photos and news. To get new friends? Well, i'll get new friends when i decide to have one, otherwise, i love to remain the way i am.
I really don't think that it is a problem. I think that we Americans have lost a sense of community. We also don't go to houses of worship as much as we did in the past. Often families move around a lot, even to different states, away from extended family. This leaves us with a decided social void in our lives. The Internet is perfect for filling that void because these sites are actual communities. People get to know the other people who hang out there. Overall, I think that it's a good thing.
For me, it means being able to keep in touch with friends that have moved abroad to live, work or get married.
finding friends there
As a parent, I think it's frightening that so many young people choose to try to find "friends" there. It's even more frightening the types of predators that may be lurking behind a friendly avatar. My son doesn't visit those sites (yet!) and I dread having to regulate him when/if he does. I think those sites appeal to teenagers because teens are always looking for affirmation, other people they can talk to that won't judge them, or that they will fit in with. Teenagers are always looking for someone who "understands" them. And that is very easy to fake in a chat room. Scary. I would much rather have my kid make friends IN PERSON. Friends whose parents I know, and whose home I have been to, etc.... I want to know all their friends personally!
There are two answers to this question:



The first is you are looking at people trying to reconnect with others to fulfill their own ego. The computer age brought about a new isolation, even though it connects us globally. People have become desensitized to others around them, and there is little chance of it slowing down. So these websites offer people the chance to reconnect to someone, anyone in a desperate attempt to prosper friendships lost. It also feeds their ego by showing how many friends they have, or what they have been doing with snap shots, it is proving their self worth.



The second answer is for many this is escapism. Time spent away from their normal boring lives and escape into a world they create. A world where they can be anyone they want, and impress others with it. They can be the world traveler, or the starving artist and instantly they find a community of like minded individuals who help perpetrate the fantasy and keep their dreams alive.

As a NGO that want to join in any social activities, what must we do it first before being known by

In the right now, we are very undergoing of something for performing many kinds of social or humankind duties because of the limitation of links or networks to foreign NGOs in many other countries, especially they are in European countries. The welfare foubndation belonged by Bono are very seldom of being heard since long time ago. At last the Mr Bono's foundation that have function like NGO, had just known based on the Award delivered to him by Time international magazine in the last year. FKN as the Indonesian government's partner, very expect to make a good relation to Bono's in the hope of being able to carry our many kinds of social fields in the future. In this case, we admid that our organization of FKN of North Sumatra are still having in the limitation of charity fund to be funneled to the have-not people in most of rural villages in both Nort Sumatra and Nangroe Aceh Darussalam provinces, although it is right now of so much people be registered a poor ones living as the poor

For recognition, you have to come out with your visible achievements and advertise in the prominent dailies...Also you may open up a web site with all your policies, proposals, on going projects and achievements.



It will of course will give a lead in a short time and the interested people who are supporting %26amp; getting supported will be in touch with you. So the services can be undertaken with great care due to volunteers and donors (sponsors)...

Do I need a patent if I wanted to create a innovative idea with a site similar to social network?

I was wondering if I had to get a patent on my idea? I wanted to make a site like myspace, friendster, facebook, etc... but wanted to know how to go about it before creating the website. My idea is different, but wanted to know if I needed a patent on it.



Do I need a patent if I wanted to create a innovative idea with a site similar to social network?emo myspace





Charles:



That is a good question, but the answer is not easy. I will give you some thoughts.



If you think you have a potentially patentable invention I recommend you seek the advice of a patent agent or patent attorney and discuss your idea with them. You can find a list of all registered agents and attorneys at:



http://des.uspto.gov/OEDCI/



You never HAVE to get a patent on anything. However, if you want to exclude someone else from using your invention, you do need to consider whether your invention has patentable features.



If you have a potentially patentable invention and neglect to file and obtain a patent on the idea, you have dedicated your invention to the public and anyone can use it. However, if you were the first to invent (under current U.S. law) then no one should be able to apply for a patent on your idea.



Another problem you may have is other patents that already exist. There are thousands of software patents claiming various features. I am not familiar with software patents and I am not familiar with your invention - which you should not reveal to anyone (except a patent agent or attorney) until you have filed for patent protection and which you most assuredly should not disclose on this web site - so I am clueless as to whether your site would potentially infringe existing patents.



Regardless of what you decided to do, I recommend you do it quickly. New patent applications are filed every day and sometimes the difference between two filings for similar or the same invention can be days.



You should be aware that obtaining a patent can be expensive and there are no guarantees that an application will necessarily end up being a patent.



Good luck to you!

Practical examples of social engineering?

Generally speaking, the weakest link in setting up security in a computer environment is people. That鈥檚 because people can often be tricked into giving out private information. Even with all the news and hype about identify theft and criminal Web sites, it鈥檚 amazing how well these techniques still work. Many users naively download a funny screen saver, open an e-mail attachment, or enter credit card information into a Web site, without regard to security. In the computer arena, social engineering is the practice of tricking people into giving out private information or allowing unsafe programs into the network or computer.

There is a very good book by one of the masters of social engineering, Kevin Mitnick. The book is titled "The Art of Deception". It is written from a "white hat" perspective, to help people recognize the weaknesses in their procedures that allow social engineering to succeed.

Will someone out there help me become employed in the field of Social Work?

I am a Female who needs to find a job.I have a degree in the field of Social Work and I can't get a job because my drivers license is suspended from speeding about five years ago during which time I became clean from drug use. I have had a job previously but this to another story. I don't have the money to pay these tickets and using drugs is no excuse, however, it has some bearing on Insanity when one is addicted to a substance which will take your life. I have spent most of my life helping other people and asertained a degree to help me succeed but my past must be cleaned up to move on. I base all Information on "The CONSTITUTION" which advocates that If we can't help ourselves then we ask help from others. so please can someone help give me a chance. I have much experience in this field and I'm confident I am good at what I do, however, either I am not networking with the right people or there is no one out there who is willing to reach out and help me. ladysugartime@yahoo.com

Probally your best bet is make a contact with someone in the field already, tell them your story and let them know you have a strong desire to help people. With your past experiences with drugs and rehabilation you could be an access to the social field. Keep on trying ...ask to volunteeer for a trial peroid and then on permenant base.

Not every social work job will require a drivers license. I would look for a job in a residential center that will not require you to drive. Your best bets are working with the elderly in a nursing home or assisted living facility. You can also look at group homes for youth. Finally you might look at a clean and sober living house with your experience in recovery you would be a good candidate. Finally, I would look at assisted living programs for chronically mentally ill and developmentally disabled. Your goal should then be to pay off the tickets and get your license back.
