Internet Security

Avi was becoming an expert at enhancing Internet security, having upgraded the security of three gaming-networking sites and one Jewish bulletin board.

I can't know to what extent he would have got involved with Facebook or what he would have made of so many of his friends and contemporaries getting duped by fake "friends," conjured up by scammers to access personal information.

I was solicited last week by a fake profile and noticed that a close relative was among those taken in. I spent the past few days warning other victims and I could not help but notice the number of those who were born in 1990 and 1991.

Passover 2010

As has become our custom since Passover 2006, we had two special cups on our seder table.

The first was the traditional Cup of Elijah, filled with wine after the meal but from which nobody drank.

The second was Avi's kiddush cup for Pesach, which remained empty and from which nobody drank.

The tradition is that Elijah will return.
The reality is that Avi won't.
