Company exists since 1986, but the main core of staff worked together since 1980. Our 200+ machines are installed at most leading manufactures, i.e. Intel, IBM, HP, AMD, Motorola, DuPont, Komag, Seagate, TI, in 15 states of the USA, UK, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, Republic of China, Israel, Germany, France. Our main competitors are KLA, Tencor, Nikon, Hitachi, Orbot, Inspex, Currently, most of our system scan focussed (from 50 um down to 1.5 um) laser (HeNe, Ar+++, Diode) beams with wavelengths from 780 nm to 365 nm across masks for microlithography (up to 9x9 inch), hard disk substrates (25 to 130 mm dia., no more 14" Winchesters around!), X-ray masks, flat panel substrates (up to 600x600 mm), drums for xerography, etc. We are looking for (linear) scattering and usually employ several detectors in the attempt to distinguish types of irregularities of interest to our customers from things they do not want to detect. Sometimes we are looking in the bright field as well for info about surface reflectivity and/or profile. We are detecting particles in sub-micron range on rather "noisy" surfaces. We are always trying to do maximum in the optical "front-end" rather than get involved in massive data processing. Our pulses - in different systems - are rather fast, down to 70 nsec. Most of our systems are equipped with robotic handlers, loaders, unloaders, etc. We detect, count and map defects and often give user a microscope to look at the defect. In many applications we also sort their product with respect to number, type, density and/or position of the defects. We are always looking for new applications and at any moment of time are engaged in developing a number of new systems and/or upgrading existing ones. Some of our systems are described in our (obsolete!!) web page at www.qco.com. You can read about QCOptics also at www.financialweb.com/reports/opc.html. We do not publish much (competition!) but you can look up our ~dozen of patents (you can search under my name). We are currently trying to fill several positions in Engineering/R&D and Service Depts. For Engineering we are looking for an Optical Engineer/Physicist with 5-10 yrs. of experience to participate in conceptual development of new products, conducting lab experiments, building system prototypes and their characterization with further implementation in real-system design. Customer interaction, applications development, field crisis support are part of the responsibilities as well. It is our experience that people trained as "physicists" fit best in our environment, but EEs or similar were successful as well. We need somebody who is comfortable with optics, lasers, focussing of Gaussian beams, scattering, scanning, fibers (as lightguides, not for communications), coatings, polarization effects, microscopes, cameras, etc. Ability to spec tasks for hardware EEs and to communicate with software designers is a must as well as experience in translating requirements of optical design for mechanical engineers. Most important, desire and ability to read and learn, is required. Communicating with vendors will be necessary. Admittedly, ours is not rocket science and not esoteric physics at all. Satisfaction comes from seeing how your ideas are transformed into smart and useful machines and from interaction with a bunch of interesting and friendly people (well, not ALL of us are such, but many). Traditionally, at QCOptics, physicists are also controlling entire system design so one has to be able to enjoy a lot of cross-disciplinary fertilization (and frustration!) We are looking for a person still possessing some enthusiasm and prepared to work hard (often, noticeably more than 40 hrs/wk) for a reasonable salary. For Service, it is (almost) the same, but in the field, i.e. mostly in the clean room, dressed in a "bunny suit" if not in a fancy Class-10 space-like-suit with helmet, and under the watchful eyes of apprehensive user who is very pissed because your system (a part of multi-million-$ production line) lost 15 V power supply or your encoder on a 12,000 RPM spindle gives you 6 (or 600!) of once-per-rev index pulses. But you will see a lot of this big world (mostly, from the window of a comfortable - coach-class - airliner). If any of the above is of interest to you, and if you are a US citizen, please forward your resume/CV to me at sbroude@hotmail.com, or fax it to 978/657-6077, or (for the disconnected) mail it to: Sergey Broude (BTW, Fiztekh '73) Director of Engineering QC Optics Inc. 46 Jonspin Rd.

Any information would be very appreciated too. Here is a brief description of the case. My friend, Tokarev Boris is Ph.D. Researcher in the fields of plant genetics and biochemistry. He emigrated to Israel in 1991. In May 1992, when he was 45 years old, he suffered a first attack of angina. He was hospitalized and a doctor strongly recommended cardiac bypass surgery. The operation was performed in August 1992. During the operation, he suffered a severe stroke (CVA), but four days passed after the operation, until they began its treatment. As a result, the disability he suffered was much more severe than it might have been. The left side of his body is paralyzed and many other organ functions are impaired. He is now 100% disabled. The medical authorities have not participated in his rehabilitation expenses, so now a legal claim through the courts is his only recourse to obtain some compensation for the health damage he has incurred. Because Israel is a small country, it is apparently very difficult to obtain an independent medical opinion in my case. In any event, our lawyer has exhausted all possibilities of finding somebody here to make an independent opinion. Could you please recommend somebody who could study medical documents I have and give his Independant Medical Opinion. Any related information may be sent to my address or directly to: Boris Tokarev Midreshet Ben-Gurion, POB 40, 84990 Israel Tel. (972) 7 6554794.

"The only ones who will make decisions, the only ones who make decisions, are us and us alone," Netanyahu said in remarks on the Iraq crisis in a speech to visiting American Jews. During the 1991 Gulf war, Israel held its fire in the face of 39 Iraqi Scud missile attacks, bowing to U.S. pressure not to take action that could push Arab states out of a U.S.-led alliance to drive Iraq out of Kuwait. On a visit to Israel Sunday, U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright spoke of a U.S. "iron-clad commitment" to Israel's security and gave notice any Iraqi threat to countries in the region in the current crisis would not go unpunished. "If they do threaten their neighbors or do damage to them our response to it will be swift and forceful," she said. But in apparent reply, Netanyahu said in his speech: "One thing has to be understood -- that we will do whatever is necessary to defend Israel and strengthen Israel's national security." He said Israelis should view the Iraqi crisis "calmly because there is a government here that handles matters professionally and with reason." Netanyahu spoke after convening cabinet ministers to discuss the possibility that a U.S. assault on Iraq would push Baghdad to launch missiles against Israel tipped with biological weapons. After the session, Deputy Defense Minister Silvan Shalom declined to comment on the deliberations but he said earlier that Israelis were thronging to army distribution centers to exchange old gas masks. Israel's Ha'aretz newspaper reported Sunday the United States had agreed in principle to send Israel vaccines against anthrax and other biological agents Iraq is believed to possess. The newspaper report, attributed to U.S. sources, said Israeli leaders asked Washington to store hundreds of thousands of doses of the vaccines in Israel. Asked if Israel had ordered the vaccines, Defense Minister Yitzhak Mordechai told reporters: "Some things are done in coordination between us and the United States to be able to defend ourselves today and in the future against the possibility that non-conventional weapons will be possessed by someone who wants to endanger us." Israeli officials have said the probability was low that Iraq would launch a strike but authorities have made clear they are preparing for the worst. The United States is rallying support from allies for a possible attack on Iraq to punish President Saddam Hussein for not complying with U.N. arms inspectors searching for documents and materials related to its weapons programs. Iraq says it has no nuclear, chemical or biological weapons or ballistic missiles -- banned under terms of the cease-fire that ended the Gulf War in which U.S.-led forces drove Iraqi troops out of Kuwait. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- From root Mon Feb 2 22:34:32 1998 >From INFO-RUSS-request@smarty.ece.jhu.edu Mon Feb 2 22:34:31 1998 Return-Path: Received: from smarty.ece.jhu.edu by psi.ece.jhu.edu with SMTP; Mon, 2 Feb 1998 22:34:31 -0500 Received: by smarty.ece.jhu.edu (5.61/1.18jrs) id AA24056; Mon, 2 Feb 98 19:50:01 -0500 Message-Id: <9802030050.AA24056@smarty.ece.jhu.edu> Errors-To: INFO-RUSS-request@smarty.ece.jhu.edu Sender: INFO-RUSS-request@smarty.ece.jhu.edu To: info-russ@smarty.ece.jhu.edu Date: Thu, 29 Jan 1998 17:26:19 -0500 Subject: INFO-RUSS: Russian Law Knowledge?

Who would be crazy enough to stick live worms in his mouth to keep them warm, drill a hole in the ice with a corkscrew taller than he is, drop a line through the hole and wait patiently until an unsuspecting fish happened by? Why, a Russian man, of course. In fact, a few million of them. If there is a pastime here to compare to the American male's seemingly bottomless love of golf, it is undoubtedly ice fishing. Each winter weekend, fortified by nothing more than a mug of soup and a bottle of vodka, the men of Russia traipse off through endless expanses of snow to stand on huge stretches of ice in the hope of pulling a few small, mostly indigestible carp or perch from the icy depths beneath them. "What do you mean why?" Igor Makharov, 54, shouted in response to the obvious question. An engineer, Makharov was standing in the middle of the Tom River here, not 10 minutes' walk from the center of the city. Other men -- always alone -- had fanned out across the frozen river, each boring holes through the 2-foot floor of ice. The temperature stood at 32 degrees below zero, but Makharov was in heaven. "I don't know how people live without ice fishing," he said. "If you had ever done it even once, you wouldn't have to ask such a ridiculous question." "Can you just feel how clear the air is?" he asked in all seriousness as his listeners frantically stamped their feet in a futile attempt to share the pleasure of the moment. "To fish here on a day like today is absolute joy. Anybody can fish in the summer. It's not the same. Ice fishing is the only real way I have ever found to forget my troubles completely. It is the most peaceful thing a man can do." It also seems to be the perfect expression of two immutable Russian traits: a love of suffering and a mystical soul. Standing alone, swallowed by vistas of white on every side, gives any Russian who wants it the chance to star, if only in his own mind and only for a little while, in a personal version of "Dr. Zhivago" or "War and Peace." Such is the popularity -- and importance -- of ice fishing, that on his recent vacation in the snowy wilds of northwest Russia, President Boris Yeltsin made a big show of spending some time on the river every day. Nobody ever says what they catch. It doesn't matter. Russian men will stand on a sheet of ice until their toes freeze, carefully bending over with a soup ladle to flick unwanted chunks of ice from a lovingly crafted fishing hole. They will return to the same spot on the same river or lake week after week, certain that their spot has a special meaning that could not be found anywhere else on earth. The routine never varies. The men lower a lure -- a worm warmed by mouth or kept alive pinned in an armpit -- and then they retreat to a stool and a bottle for a half-hour to see what happens. Like so much of Russian life itself, the experience is really a challenge: the ultimate outward bound event. It can also be perilous. Ice fishing may sound sedate, but it is often deadly. So far in Russia, more than 50 people have died ice fishing this winter. Some fell through unexpected cracks in the ice. Two froze to death. Several simply drifted on a broken ice floe out to sea. Last year so many people near St. Petersburg came unmoored on giant hunks of ice that the police started a regular boat patrol along the coast. Fishermen complained that it scared their prey. "There is a little risk to everything that's wonderful," said Sergei Shubov, 44, an electrician. He argues that serenity and isolation are well worth a small chance of frostbite or death. "Look at Russia's favorite summer hobby," he said. "Do you know how many people die gathering poison mushrooms every year? It doesn't mean it isn't fun." There must be something to the serenity, because nobody could be doing this for the fish. A man can stand from morning till night, often wrapped in a plastic garbage bag with a hole big enough for a bottle, and his catch can amount to three to five scrawny white fish. There was a time when no one who fished here could ever fail. Before the Soviet Union turned much of this area into an industrial dump, residents used to take thousands of tons of fish each year from the rivers and lakes of Siberia. Hunting and fishing made the region prosperous. No more, though. Tomsk is like most big cities in central Russia and Siberia: Industries dot the riverbanks, and sewage and chemical waste are dumped into the river without a thought to the consequences. "The fish may be polluted," said Shubov, who does this every week of the winter -- and in Siberia that's a lot of weeks. "Most people say that if you catch them in winter, they are cleaner. But I don't really do it for the fish. I don't even eat them. I do it for the chance to be alone with my thoughts." Asked if he thought it was a rather extreme way of getting to know himself better, Shubov laughed. "This is how Russians relax," he said. "Who said it's supposed to be comfortable?"

I want all of you to make it home alive. Don't kill your parents, your brothers and sisters." The slight, 22-year-old woman stopped there, unable to go on. When her words returned in Hebrew, many of the purple-bereted combat soldiers, some of them fresh from the combat zone of southern Lebanon, swallowed hard and looked away. Until Sgt. Nikolai Rappaport was killed by a blast of Hezbollah shrapnel in the neck on Saturday, none of them knew that the 23-year-old recent Russian immigrant had this sister, or that his father, Ilya, 62, had been unemployed for months, or that they lived in poverty in a tiny room in a tin-roofed storehouse in the seedy Shapira district of Tel Aviv. The story of the quiet immigrant from Russia who found a home in an Israeli combat unit and volunteered for every patrol -- including the one that killed him -- while his small family wrestled with privation and misery, sent a wave of shame through the army and the society. That was especially so when Ilya Rappaport said he would take Nikolai's body back to his native Krasnodar, in the northern Caucasus, so his mother could be at the burial. Though neither the father nor the sister uttered a word of complaint, there was a sense, captured in eulogies and press commentaries, that Israel had somehow failed these people. "Now, after his death, everyone in Israel has seen the single room where he, his father and his sister lived -- and we are ashamed," The Jerusalem Post said in an editorial. "The situation of this one grieving family shines a spotlight on the difficulties that remain for many new immigrants from the former Soviet Union." "Two foreigners stood there, isolated, in a sea of purple army berets of the Givati unit," Sima Kadmon wrote in Maariv, another daily. "Even his death failed to incorporate them in our society. Even before they could learn how to adapt here, they learned what it means to die here." Unspoken at the funeral, but understood by all present, was the fact that had Rappaport decided to have the funeral in Israel, his son would have been buried outside the cemetery walls, because by the Orthodox Jewish law in force, he was not even Jewish, since his mother was not. The Law of Return grants automatic citizenship to anyone who has a Jewish grandparent, but religious law recognizes only those whose mothers were Jewish. The story of the Rappaports seemed to remind Israelis how little they really know about the travails and lives of the hundreds of thousands of Russian Jews who have immigrated to Israel in the last decade, and especially those like Ilya Rappaport who have been too old or too limited in their training to integrate themselves into the brash, fast-paced Israeli life. "We stand here embarrassed that we did not see, did not hear, did not ask and did not know how difficult it was for your family," said Sergeant Rappaport's Hebrew teacher, Tova Nayberg, one of the few people from outside the Givati Brigade who went to the ceremony. The slight Rappaport, unshaven and dressed in a thin brown jacket that seemed to offer little protection against the cold, was unable to read the Kaddish, the Jewish mourner's prayer, and let the chaplain do it. When asked to say a word, he was hesitant. "I'll try," he said in Russian. "I'll see if I can. I want to tell all you soldiers: fulfill your duty, of course, but do return home. Please excuse me." The plight of the Rappaports first came to light when President Ezer Weizman went to their hovel to pay a call on Sunday. He and the officers who went with him were horrified. "It is a pity we have come to this point, in which the family of a fighter in the Israel Defense Force is living in such disgraceful conditions," Weizman declared. "If the IDF did not know about this, that is terrible." At the brief military memorial service at the military induction base here, the guilt was as tangible as the grief. "Forgive us for our deeds," the army cantor intoned. "Everything we did was for you, according to the traditions of Israel and the practices of our holy land." And in interviews after Sergeant Rappaport's coffin was driven off in an army truck for the El Al flight to Russia, his commanders and comrades tried to explain why they had known so little. "We never suspected his situation," said Pvt. Vadim Kutsik, a Russian-speaking member of Sergeant Rappaport's unit who was wounded in the same ambush. "He was very quiet; he never told anyone. I only learned about it from TV." It turned out that Sergeant Rappaport had applied for financial assistance but apparently concealed the fact that his father lost his job as a welder last summer, possibly because he might have been reassigned to a noncombat unit nearer home. At the same time, he never told his father that he was serving in a unit assigned to the Israeli-controlled buffer zone in southern Lebanon. As a combat soldier, Sergeant Rappaport earned about $170 a month. Ilya and Nikolai Rappaport immigrated to Israel three years ago to seek a better life. Ilya Rappaport's wife, Klavdiya, who is not Jewish, stayed behind, reportedly because she was very sick. Olga Rappaport arrived in Israel two months ago, saying she missed her brother. It is not an unusual story among recent immigrants, except for the way Nikolai found his home in the army. He first tried to join the paratroopers, Kutsik said, and when he failed, he chose a unit in which he could see action. Older than most other recruits, who are drafted at 18 in Israel, Sergeant Rappaport was known as a quiet soldier who was always ready to do more. "It didn't matter how many hours he worked during the day, or how many hours he spent on guard duty," said his platoon commander, Lt. Assaf Rosenfeld, "or even if his comrades did less. He never complained. I heard that he is not going to be buried in Israel. In my opinion, this is not what he would have wanted, if he could have asked." ------------------------------------------------------- From root Thu Feb 19 22:32:09 1998 >From INFO-RUSS-request@smarty.ece.jhu.edu Thu Feb 19 22:32:04 1998 Return-Path: Received: from smarty.ece.jhu.edu by psi.ece.jhu.edu with SMTP; Thu, 19 Feb 1998 22:32:02 -0500 Received: by smarty.ece.jhu.edu (5.61/1.18jrs) id AA12900; Thu, 19 Feb 98 19:33:44 -0500 Message-Id: <9802200033.AA12900@smarty.ece.jhu.edu> Errors-To: INFO-RUSS-request@smarty.ece.jhu.edu Sender: INFO-RUSS-request@smarty.ece.jhu.edu Date: Wed, 11 Feb 98 13:27:47 +0100 From: tolja@maya.geo.uu.se (Anatoli Belonoshko) To: info-russ@smarty.ece.jhu.edu Subject: INFO-RUSS: shtamp v zagranpassport Status: OR --------------------------------------------------------------------- This is INFO-RUSS broadcast (1200+ subscribers).

Now a rigorous Mathematical Proof that explains why this is true: Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power. Postulate 2: Time is Money As every engineer knows, Work --------- = Power Time Since Knowledge = Power, and Time = Money, we have Work --------- = Knowledge Money Solving for Money, we get: Work ---------------- = Money Knowledge Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity regardless of the Work done.

You asked if we are treating babies in danger of blindness. I passed your E-Mail message on to Dr. Mary Elizabeth Hartnett who replied: "We definitely treat a great deal of retinopathy of prematurity here and have a great deal of experience with this condition. The estimated probability of a positive result depends on the severity of the condition. This could range from 20% to 80%. The cost of the treatment would vary widely. It depends upon if an examination under anesthesia needs to be or if there were to be a scleral buckle done or a closed vitrectomy or an open sky vitrectomy." The doctor would need to know more about the case so we could estimate the costs. The name of the doctor is Dr. Mary Elizabeth Hartnett, Schepens Retina Associates, 100 Charles River Plaza, Suite 201, Boston, MA 02114. The phone is 617 523-7800. fax is 617 227-0996.

The assessment of high-school students was based on three tests: (i) general mathematics and science literacy (basic algebra, estimation, life science, physics, etc.), (ii) advanced mathematics (calculus and precalculus), and (iii) advanced physics. Traditionally, Russia was strong in the advanced tests: second place (after France) out of 16 in advanced math, and third place (after Norway and Sweden) in advanced physics. That's cool. However, in general math and science literacy Russia scored 16 out of 21, significantly below average (but still above the USA!). By the way, the high score in advanced physics should be taken cautiosly, for only 20% of advanced physics students could answer correctly a simple question about forces acting on a body (see the article in Science for the example). Below, I retyped the table from the article (Asia did not participated). MATH AND SCIENCE LITERACY ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Country Mean score ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ---------------------------------------- Netherlands 559 Significantly Sweden 555 above Iceland 541 Norway 536 Switzerland 531 Denmark 528 Canada 526 New Zealand 525 Austria 519 ------------------------------------------ Australia 525* Average Slovenia 514 France 505 Germany 496 Czech Republic 476** ------------------------------------------ Hungary 477 Significantly Russian Fed. 476 below Italy 475 USA 471 Lithuania 465 Cyprus 447 South Africa 352 ------------------------------------------ AVERAGE 500 ------------------------------------------ There must be mistakes in the table.

Yeltsin told outgoing Prime Minister Viktor Chernomyrdin to prepare for presidential elections in 2000, and appointed Fuel and Energy Minister Sergei Kirienko as his acting prime minister. The appointment of a prime minister must be approved by the opposition-dominated lower house of parliament, the State Duma. The Duma has bitterly opposed Yeltsin's economic policies and approval of a new prime minister might be difficult. Kremlin spokesman Sergei Yastrzhembsky said Kirienko had also been named a first deputy prime minister. Yeltsin, looking calm and speaking strongly and clearly in a televised announcement, criticized the old Cabinet for wasting time on political infighting. "The country needs a new team," he said. And Chernomyrdin, in answer to a question at a news conference, said, "There is no crisis. There is no crisis." Stunning announcement The announcement that Yeltsin had dismissed Chernomyrdin and most of the Cabinet stunned the country. It came just weeks after Yeltsin had expressed confidence in his top officials, saying they would stay in office for the rest of his term. Kremlin says Russian international policy unchanged Chernomyrdin: 'no need to panic' Text of Yeltsin's decree Russian acting PM Kiriyenko seen as technocrat What Russian constitution says about sacking government Russian foreign policy unchanged, summit on List of Russian cabinet sacked on Monday -------------------- Yeltsin said he wanted to ensure that economic reforms he started would continue and that a reformer would win presidential elections in 2000, when his second term expires. By law, Yeltsin cannot run for a third term. Yeltsin then said he wanted Chernomyrdin to focus on preparing for Chernomyrdin at Monday's the elections -- but news conference stopped short of saying the former premier would be his preferred candidate. "Resignation of the government does not mean the change in the course of our politics. This is an effort to render more energy and efficiency to economic reforms, to give them an additional impetus, a new impulse," he said. While the Cabinet had done well in some areas, Yeltsin said, it had failed to persuade ordinary Russians that market reforms would improve their lives. Many Russians, deeply unhappy about falling living standards since the 1991 Soviet collapse and unpaid wages and pensions, blame reforms for the country's economic woes. Communists and other opposition groups have strong popular support and want to turn back many market reforms. Chernomyrdin had been a loyal premier who served more than five years as scores of other Cabinet officials had come and gone. He was regarded as the government's greatest survivor. Chubais says he will stay on Yeltsin 'team'. In his three terse announcements, Yeltsin specifically dismissed First Deputy Prime Minister Anatoly Chubais, the government's chief economic reformer, and Interior Minister Anatoly Kulikov, who heads Russia's internal security forces. Chubais, removed on Monday as first deputy prime minister, said he and President Boris Yeltsin had agreed he will stay in the president's team but did not say in what role, Interfax news agency reported. "We agreed that I will remain in his team, in whatever capacity or wherever I work," Interfax quoted Chubais as saying. Other Cabinet members, while also fired, were ordered to stay in their posts until permanent replacements were named. The former Cabinet held an extraordinary meeting in the Russian White House Monday. The announcement came just three days before a major summit in Moscow that will include Yeltsin, German Chancellor Helmut Kohl and French President Jacques Chirac. To remove the government on the eve of an important summit suggested that Yeltsin felt there was an emergency. Yeltsin has long been known for unexpected, impulsive actions that in the past were sometimes attributed to his alleged heavy drinking. Following heart surgery in November 1996, doctors say the president has moderated his habits. It was not known if Yeltsin might reappoint some of the dismissed ministers to their old or new posts. Among those dismissed were the key architects of the government's reform program: Chubais and fellow First Deputy Prime Minister Boris Nemtsov. Stock exchange dived on word of dismissals Nemtsov, who has been widely touted as a future prime minister or presidential candidate, was scheduled to meet with Yeltsin later Monday. "What are we going to do now? We are going to form a new government," Nemtsov said after the dismissals were announced. There was no apparent explanation for the dismissal of the interior minister, Kulikov, a long-time Yeltsin loyalist who commands the country's police and paramilitary internal security The dismissals of Chernomyrdin and his top aides were expected to shake the confidence of foreign investors and aid donors, who have been playing a major role in supporting the struggling Russian economy. The Moscow Stock Exchange dived 10 percent on word of the dismissals. White House spokesman Mike McCurry said the United States was caught by surprise by the announcement. "I don't believe we had any indication it was going to happen," McCurry said from Ghana, where President Clinton arrived Monday on his tour of Africa. The shakeup comes when the economy is already in deep trouble because of the fallout of the Asian economic crisis and persistent internal problems, It also comes amid concerns over Yeltsin's health. He was ill last week with what officials said was a respiratory illness.

Hi: I'm looking for anybody in the USA or Canada who is involved in selling and distributing new fiction and poetry Russian language books published in the USA. Ideally the books should be distributed and sold not only in US, but in Russia as well as the countries with significant Russian language readership, such as Israel and Canada. Am also interested to hear from or about professional publishers and printers who work with so-called short run books (250 - 2000 copies). It is not an invitation to start some new business. I myself need assistance in selling my new book which is ready for printing. Four years ago I did publish a book of poetry, prose and art. I'm not the author and consequently feel free to say that the book happened to be a very great success by its content as well as by the typographic and artistic quality of the jacket, cover, color and half-tone illustrations. This book was highly praised and reviewed in press and radio in the USA, Russia, Israel and France. Also, I feel free to say that I made a lot of mistakes and snafus while trying to distribute this book on my own. As a result I still have about 40 copies, sitting in the cartons in my garage. At present I have another book ready for printing. This time I do not want to repeat the mistakes I did. I would like to rely on somebody who knows the ins and outs of selling those Russian books which were published outside of Russia, especially in the USA. I would highly appreciate receiving any relevant information and direct advice and help on this matter.

In January, 1997, cellist and composer Boris Rayskin organized the 11-day Sergey Kuryokhin International Interdisciplinary Festival (SKIIFestival) in New York City dedicated to the memory of Sergey Kuryokhin. Tragically, Boris's life ended soon after the festival. SKIF2 is dedicated in his memory. SKIF2 will once again bring together many artists with whom Kuryokhin collaborated, as well those close to his creative spirit, to perform in this eclectic musical celebration. The festival will showcase the most cutting edge avant-garde, jazz, and experimental rock musicians from Russia, the United States and Europe including: "Silver Apples", "Tequila Jazz", "Kolibri", Rashied Ali, Marilyn Crispell, "Tri-O", Vladimir Tarasov, Sakari Luoma, Yudanov and Katz, David Soldier, "White Out", Borah Bergman, Cyro Baptista, "Vershki da Koreshki", "The Slackers", Volkov-Trio, Spectre and Sensational, Ned Rothenberg, Anatole Gerasimov, Aleksey Khvostenko, William Hooker, DJ-Olive + WE, Peter Brotzman and special guest artist Chico Freeman and many more. Daniel Rayskin, Boris's Brother will perform a special piece dedicated to his late brother. "SKIF2", will be held at the best venues of New York City: THE COOLER, CAMI HALL, MERKIN HALL, and the ELBOW ROOM. The festival will be an opportunity for further collaboration between Russian, European and American performers who will share their music with New York audiences. SKIF2 is produced by Bliss Records in Association with The Russian-American Cultural Forum. Artistic Direction for the festival is provided by Seva Gakkel, chairman of the Board of The Sergey Kuryokhin Foundation, St. Petersburg, Russia, and Anatole Gerasimov.
