APPENDIX: LISTSERV address & basic procedures
----------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT'S NEW . . .
* David Zlotchenko has created a very nice resource on telecommunications
resources in Central/Eastern Europe and the CIS -- including a 'clickable'
map of the region. While the current pages focus on information
resources, David will be updating these pages regularly with information
on telecommunications and networking initiatives. David's work is
available from the "Telecommunications" page.
* We welcome the opening of Ken Schaffer and Co.'s, new 'Belcom" WWW
server (with hook from F&P telecommunications page)! This is an
especially nice WWW server with information on Belcom's
telecommunication's projects in the CIS. We are grateful to be able to
work with Ken and the other nice folks in Belcom. From their home page,
"BelCom, Inc. provides satellite-based private international
communications for the oil, hotel and banking industries, and
community telecommunications facilities in key business regions
throughout the former Soviet Union. Since its founding in 1990, BelCom
has provided the essential communications links necessary for the
largest multi-national ventures operating in the former Soviet
Union.
BelCom's main offices are in New York, Moscow, Almaty (Kazakhstan),
Kazan (Tatarstan) and Nicosia (Cyprus). The Company employs a staff of
over 200 Western-trained technical, legal and logistic specialists who
operate the company's gateways and teleports throughout the region."
You can visit directly with URL: http://solar.rtd.utk.edu/~belcom/
* Andrey Sebrant has authored a beautiful, illustrated slide show entitled
Beauty of Russian North -- available from the travel page and, directly
with URL: http://solar.rtd.utk.edu/~asebrant/north1/north1.html
There is also a version in Russian at:
http://solar.rtd.utk.edu/~asebrant/north1/north2.html
From Andrey's page, "Russian North is the country of water and woods.
Of course if you go too far up north, the woods would disappear replaced
by endless marshes and low meadows of Arctic tundra. But let us stay south
of the Arctic Circle this time... And enjoy a short slide show. If you
click on a small in-line image, you will get a larger picture for an
off-line viewer. . . ."
* Andrey has also completed a new WWW server in Moscow for Russian school
students. The link is available from the Education page or at URL:
http://www.glasnet.ru/edutainment/edu_h.html
From Andrey: "The Edutainment page open on GlasNet WWW server in Moscow is
designed to help Russian school students in their first exploration of the
Web. It contains a few papers from a school newsletter published in Moscow
school No. 728, some poetry written by a 7th grader from Kirov, links to
the Web servers around the world that may be of interest to the kids.
There are many pictures and of course all the texts are in Russian."
* Announcing a new WWW collection of documents dedicated to Russification of
Macintosh compiled by Matvey Palchuk. The main purpose of this site is to
enable Macintosh users with Internet connection to work with Russian text
in KOI8 format. KOI8 is a well known de-facto standard in Internet
communication in Russia/exUSSR.
URL: http://www.pitt.edu/~mapst57/rus/russian.html
Hook is available from the F&P Cyrillic page.
* David Zlotchenko has added several new newsgroups to the newsgroup
page (available from the "News" page on F&P). These include:
alt.folklore.suburban; alt.news.macedonia; bit.listserv.e-europe;
clari.biz.market.report.europe; eunet.europen; misc.news.bosnia;
soc.history.war.world-war-ii; trial.soc.culture.czechoslovak
* Michael Martin has created a series of pages called Foreign Languages
for Travellers which give basic tutorials in several languages and is
finishing up a page for Russian now too. It is located at:
http://insti.physics.sunysb.edu/~mmartin/languages/languages.html
We've placed a pointer to this nice new resource from the "languages"
page.
* Brenden West has created a new resource entitled "The Russian Economy
Resource Center". It contains information on the Russian economy and
organizations in the Pacific Northwest that actively deal with Russia and
the NIS. Web users can check it out at:
http://www.eskimo.com/~bwest
And we have a pointer to it from the F&P Business page.
* A collection of WWW pages devoted to Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan by
journalist Vladimir Klimenko is available at:
http://mars.uthscsa.edu/Russia/klimenko.html
and from the "More Information Resources" page.
* Network maps of Russia and other FSU countries is available at:
http://mars.uthscsa.edu/Russia/Network/net.html
This page is a description of baud rate connectivity compiled by
Vladimir Pekkel and has pointers to other useful network-related
resources. Hook available from the F&P Telecommunications page.
* HOT PICTURES Electronic PhotoGallery
by Alexei Shulgin is available via WWW URL:
http://www.kiae.su/www/wtr/hotpictures/gallery.html
and from the F&P "Art" page.
This presents 50 works of contemprorary artists who use photography.

Subject: Russian courses
I have seen announcements for summer Russian language programs in Russia
at Moscow State University and through KASSI international in Novosibirsk.
I would like to hear from anyone who has first-hand experience (preferably
as a student) in one of these programs. What were your impressions? How
good did you find the program? Although the programs both look good, I am
nervous about committing a whole summer to study at a program about which I
only know what the program's providers have to say. I would also like to
hear from people who have spent the summer in Russia in an intensive Russian
language program at some other institution. Give me your frank impressions.
I need to make a final decision by the end of January, so please get back to
me as soon as possible if you know anything about this kind of program.
Thank you,

Al-Anon's message of recovery to Russia and other former entities of the
USSR.
Thanks to Greg's help, information about the program is now available to
anyone with access to the Internet ........

) Dear Friends,
)
) As we all know well, the economic situation in Russia leaves much to be
) desired and continued support of Russian industry is essential to future
) political stability and economic growth.
Check with Greg Cole. I have posted a great deal of information to F&P
about investment in Russia which you might want to take a look at
)
) I recently graduated from Carleton College in Minnesota and began
) working for a Minneapolis company - Peter the Great Coat Company - which
) which works directly with a Russian factory which produces Russian
) Street Sweeper Jackets in St. Petersburg and sells them mail order here in
) the United States. (They are warm, durable jackets worn by municipal
) workers). After spending the last five months in St. Petersburg, working
) closely with struggling textile manufacturers, I am convinced that foreign
) support of Russian industry is essential. As the internal Russian market
) is so depressed at the moment, the factories we work with are surviving
) almost exclusively by working with foreign companies. As such I am
) gratified to be working for a company that is committed to the long term
) development of the Russian economy.
)
) I would love to hear from anyone who has similar experiences or is
) interested in the jackets we import. Please feel free to contact me, Mark
) Colville (MCOLVILL@CARLETON.EDU) or 612/339-6711.
)
I am interested in fur pelts of mink, sable and fox. Since you are in
textiles you might have knowledge of the small privately owned
independent fur ranches farms that produce these pelts. They are worth
more as untanned skins then finsihed garments. I can market any quantity
of them up to the entire national production of 7 million pelts per year.
Detail provided upon request. The major St. Petersburg auction was known
in the soviet area as Soyuzpushnina. It still tries to maintain a
monopoly and pays locasl ranchers a ittance of the real world market
value. I want to support the private entrepreneurs and get them out of
the clutches of exploiters. Annimal food and vaccines, cages, know how
and technology and investment is also available to them
) Da Svidaniya!
)
) Mark
Russian textiles. Tell me the prices of the jackets. Then tell me the
manufacturing costs. If the margin of profit is reasonable we can assume,
based on the low wage rates and raw materials costs, that the jackets will
be priced very competitively with Chinese and Taiwan imports and domestic
manufactured products. If after analysing that the premise holds, there
would be a way to generate a mass marketing program that would fully tap
the American market, which I will explain to you in due course.
What is the maximum monthly production capacity? How many other shops
could get together in a production amalgamation to increase quantity
Will they accept payment on arrival? If not how do you deal with
unaceptable quality or late shipment?

Subject: US Kids, Inc. (fwd)
In order to help a client find a distributor in Russia, I am sending this
message to the E-Europe mailing list and the Friends mailing list.
Please excuse any duplication.
US KIDS, INC.
Our client is a U.S.-based designer and manufacturer of "temporary
tattoos" and interior design "appliques." The tattoos are very popular
with children and young adults, are of exceptionally high quality, i.e.,
realistic, and look remarkably like actual tattoos, and come in a vast
array of designs. The appliques are used to turn ordinary ceramic or kitchen
tile into ornate "Italian-look" tiles.
Our client has asked us to seek for it distributors/trading partners
in Russia. Our initial search is for distributors located in Moscow, St.
Petersburg, and the Black Sea resort areas (since the "tattoos" are very
popular at beach locations during vacation periods).
If you are, know of or represent a potential distributor that can
work effectively with our client, we would be pleased to hear from you
immediately. Our client is poised to move quickly, but only with the
right trading partner. Please respond only if you can:
1. Market products effectively;
2. Maintain good and consistent communications with our client; and
3. Keep customers content and provide service.
Answers to some of your questions:
The tattoos, if left on the skin, will wear off naturally in about ten
days. They can be removed at any time with alcohol and a cotton ball,
however.
Our client's technology enables it to see a design and immediately
make that design available in tattoo form.
The same technology permits our client to develop designs for
transfer to ceramic tile used in kitchen and/or bathroom decoration.
Our client looks forward to entering the Russian market with you.
Please respond to Perry B. Newman, Esq., at PBNewman@delphi.com, or, to
3300 BP America Building, Cleveland, Ohio 44114, 216/621-0150,

Moscow, Russia, December 13th -- New Media Lab, Institute for

HOT PICTURES Electronic PhotoGallery
by Alexei Shulgin, available through WWW.
WWW URL: http://www.kiae.su/www/wtr/hotpictures/gallery.html
First Russian electronic photogallery HOT PICTURES
presents 50 works of contemprorary artists who use photography.
The spectre of presented works is rather wide -- starting
from "direct, immediate photography" to computer-processed
images.
Alexei Shulgin says: "The fact that all exhibited works were created
using photography is not accidental. It was the appearance and
development of photography which provided for revolutionary changes in
the visual image of the world. Photography for the long time seemed to
be the only credible method for reality reflection. But the development
of computer technologies had put this postulate on trial. So
photography which in its time had changed all fine arts now is changing
itself. Electronic photography is not only the presentation of specific
artists and works, but also an attempt to research and vizualize the
described phenomena."
This exhibition will also be demonstrated via Internet in
Germany, in non-virtual environment of real museum hall:
