local souvenir markets and shops are already full to bursting with merchandise there's artie's dennis ross europe or it's none of it would win gold medals for authenticity. when such he was announced as the home for the two thousand and fourteen winter olympics. it was music to the ears of many entrepreneurs a tidal wave of investment promised booming business for everyone including those who like to cash in with no official right to do so last year we confiscated over two hundred forty items of merchandise which had olympic symbols illegally applied this who tells boone replace the olympic sign on his gates. to attract customers he's now facing a fine for copyright violation and so should police say he's just one of many thirty souvenir stands are full of sports goods most of them great here say either sochi or city of the future or have logos resembling the olympic emblem but officially they are not good legs since none of these goods carry all the elements which would make them full of copyright. but after these funny little creatures were picked in a nationwide televised boot it didn't

earlier this week we commented on the highlight of the comments of florida congressman dennis ross of suggested that utah should sell off huge tracts of its public light of private corporations to solve our nation's fiscal woes i think that a congressman from florida would think twice about telling another state what they should do with their public lands and you think that the governor of utah would sell ross to go mind his own business but that's not what happened and said utah governor gary herbert loved the idea is that he had to say about it a news conference yesterday. i think is certainly worth exploring i don't think we're going to. you know our national parks and pristine areas because lovely could be privatized and helped the definition so is this the beginning of the end for our america as the wholesale selloff of america begun to give us the details on this issue. order a blogger with think progress towards me said welcome back thanks for having me. this sell off of utah first of all just going to go anywhere but first of all i like to say they hope now they've been talkin

"the new york times"writes about dennis ross.hey point out he is a defender of israel but the basis of the article says they are not quite sure how he thinks about all of this. guest: dennis ross is the senior director for this region at the national security council which is the group of staffers that advises the president. he does not work in the state department. he worked at the white house. there is a tension between the white house and state department on most issues especially this issue. dennis ross is the person who is the lead interlocutor with the israeli government. perhaps that netanyahu government prefers to deal with him. they know him better and they trust him better. to call on a defender of israel is an accusation that would require more evidence. i would not be willing to go that far. his positions may be different than the state department in that he works for the administration and george mitchell does not. if there was a bureaucratic battle, it h would it he won. >> ohio, welcome to the program. caller: good
