The following is not quite as colorful as the 'Battleship Potemkin' but
still deserves to be mentionned I think.


	WASHINGTON (UPI) -- The United States has established full diplomatic
relations with all nations created from the splintered Yugoslavia except
for the union of Montenegro and Serbia, which are waging a brutal land
grab against Bosnia-Hercegovina, an official said Monday.
	He said the United States was working to open missions at the three
nations and that President Bush would soon name ambassadors.

<text omitted>

	The Baltic republics split from Yugoslavia last spring and were
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
recognized by the United States, the European Community and most of the
world's nations. The self-declared Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, the
unrecognized successor state made up of Serbia and Montenegro,
immediately beseiged Bosnia-Hercegovina in an effort to extend
Belgrade's boundaries.

  The telegraph company "Western Union" was meant.
But a couple of weeks ago they informed me that commissions in Moscow
would be around 5%-6%. That is why the previous information about
Bank of New York sounded interesting (3% commissions).

Your remark on "4 letters" is a valid one. Had I used an adjective like
`obscene', or `abusive', or `foul', or `offensive', this would be viewed as
being judgemental and having a preconceived image, and no big time feminist
would ever dream of reading it, let alone answering. Thus, I wrote "4-letter"
- and missed the point... it should have been something like
    "words and expressions usually not allowed by censorship to
     appear in print, provided that censorship is still around"
- but that takes a bit more of a bandwidth.

As for your answer, let us put it on record and wait for the opinion
of specialists.

As the person who started the question, I was interested in the issue of the
revival of cultural, political, intellectual and other traditions in East
Europe and their effect on diaspora communities.  I do research on Ukrainian
and Jewish aged in the United States, and their comments and memories of
older traditions are an important part of how they talk about their lives.
Understanding those traditions, both from the time these elders lived in
East Europe and the current manifistations of these traditions is of
importance in putting the material into context.

Sorry, I afraid original assumption is wrong. On average they do curse

Except couple of thousand years of human history. Certanly there are evidences

Sorry, don'y you think you are doing same mistake? Let me try:

"There is no such thing as anti-feminist propaganda. It's a phrase invented
by those who view anti-feminists as a threat to reforms. Just like there are
millions of diffrent opinions within any one social or political movement,
all anti-feminists are not alike. Each person who consider him/her self as
anti-feminist ..."

Does it sound familiar? Let me remind that anti-feminists (I do not think I one 
them, BTW) include muslim
fundamentalists and roman catolics.

I do not know. I do not think anyone can know. As a man I like caring about
my family, and supporting it. But I like my job, too. 

If woman will not sit with children, man will. I really think that it is worse

And also, if you want to left women any choice, you should preserve some number
of men who are willing to support their family. I have a filling that
there will be quite a market for such a men in future equal-opportunity
society :).

I will be traveling by boat from Helsinki to St. Petersburg in the near future. 
I am fascinated to be traveling to Russia although I must admit I am somewhat
ignorant of the culture there.  I am looking for some advice from people who have
been there before (maybe even from someone who lives or lived there).  I have
read the usual travel books and the boat trip company includes a morning sight
seeing tour.  But I would like to hear from somebody about the special places to
see (museums, churches, memorials, monuments, open markets, etc).  Please keep in
mind that I will only be there for about 16 hours.  I also have a few other
questions.  WOULD IT BE WISE TO BRING AMERICAN DOLLARS TO BUY THINGS (OR IS THIS
ILLEGAL)?  WHAT ABOUT THE "BRING SOME EXTRA PAIRS OF JEANS WITH YOU" MYTH?  WILL
IT BE EASY TO TAKE A WALKING TOUR OF THE CITY (OR SHOULD I USE THE CITY'S
TRANSPORTATION)?  ARE THINGS THERE EXPENSIVE AS IT SOUNDS LIKE?  SHOULD I BUY A
PICNIC LUNCH IN HELSINKI AND TAKE IT WITH ME OR WILL THERE BE PLENTY OF PLACES TO
EAT THERE (AND AT REASONABLE PRICES)?

Please include any informatin you might think I would find valuable.  Thank-you
in advance.

Is there a way to find out if a particular organization is on the net in
Russia?  Particularly in Yaroslavl, which is associated as a sister city
with my home in Burlington, Vermont.  Yaroslavl is, I believe, in the
state (province? principality?) of Karelia, and is not too far from 
Moscow.

I have friends involved in the program in both countries (US and Russia) and
it would be interesting to know if there is any chance of contact through
the net.  I also have a friend that is interested in teaching English in
Yaroslavl, so I would be particularly interested to know if the Yartec
Language Institute is on the net at all.

Any information, suggestions, or whatever would be most appreciated
