| http://www.harpersalumspecialties.com/guccihandbags.html It started out as a simple idea, but now controversy is stirring in Russia over the exorbitant amount of money spent on a recent project to restore a national treasure. Restorations built to the Kremlin are looking rather regal to ordinary citizens whose existence is, at the best, meager, reports CBS News Correspondent David Hawkins. The state run cost of repairing the offices and reception halls of Boris Yeltsin's residence was $823 million. Many believe the actual expense to be much higher speculate the Yeltsin administration won't start its books to government auditors it's extremely difficult to know for sure. Yelstin's aide accountable for the project, Pavel Borodin, is now a target of the Swiss money-laundering investigation. Prosecutors suspect Borodin took bribes in substitution for construction contracts. Twenty-two of Yelstin's staff members are also under investigation.Borodin maintains he's done no problem. Besides, he says, the Kremlin renovation would be a bargain. Whether or not this Russian do-it-yourself was a bargain, it's a luxury in a country where thousands of staff are waiting to receive paychecks. The $823 million dollars invested in the Kremlin is almost exactly what the government owes to unpaid workers and retirees. Russia's poor and elderly go for months without paychecks and pensions as the government paid for antiques, gold leaf, along with the Kremlin's crystal chandeliers.While the Kremlin may certainly be fit for a czar, Russia has stiffed its international creditors and will continue to hold out its hand after only more loans from the West. The loans were underwritten with the U.S. government so, no less than in part, American tax dollars helped purchase the Russian restoration.

http://www.ahlborn-kirchenorgeln.com/bottesugg.html Since the news hit Saturday that John F. Kennedy Jr.'s plane was missing, scores of people have come by to drop off cards and flowers for the doorstep of his New York City apartment. Area residents brought religious candles, prayers and poems expressing grief on the presumed deaths of JFK Jr., his wife Carolyn Bessette, and her sister, Lauren, who disappeared in the plane en route to Martha's Vineyard.People that live in New York are watching the shrine grow everyday (almost hour by hour) looking at JFK Jr.?'s and Carolyn?'s apartment. It is not just flowers. Notes, pictures - individuals are bringing every kind of tribute imaginable. CBS News Correspondent Richard Schlesinger reports.Meghan Courtney found what has become a mounting shrine to JFK Jr. to give her own tribute."When I saw the building for the first time in person, it was overwhelming. But I'm glad that I did this now, 'cause now Personally i think like I have something to remember about this whole week," she said.Thousands mourned there throughout the week. Most, strangers for the Kennedy family, were there to leave a memento. Meghan desired to leave something that would go on for her."Flowers eventually die and candles wear out, but music is something that will last forever," said Meghan.Meghan saw Kennedy once, a star-gazing high school graduation girl, on a New York street. He flashed her a Kennedy smile."That's a memory that I'll have forever, i got to see him that particular time. He was so nice about this. He wasn't like a celebrity that will run and hide into a building. He was as they always was, gracious and trendy. He was a special guy," she recalled."Most of us who work or are now living in the area have seen John with his fantastic wife in the area," said area resident Edward Sullivan. "We saw John on his Rollerblades and bike and, from the later years, with his wife and dog.""We all watched him mature through the TV and when similar to this happens, it happens to all of us," said Frank Lopez, a furniture trucker, who came from the Queens borough regarding his mother, Lucy, to leave an American flag and flowers on Sunday.The Kennedys "are section of America, and they show Americans whatever they could be," he added.Some visitors were surprised to get that Kennedy lived in what at first glance is an unassuming neighborhood of 19th-century warehouses, factories and lofts, whose facades belie the luxury conversions within. "He would just walk-through the city and not be aware of the truth that he was a celebrity," said Yuri Zabran, a motion picture and video producer. "It's an extremely inconspicuous neighborhood where you have a very lot of celebrities living, nonetheless they prefer not to be part of the Hollywood type of environment."This is now one of the few places left the location where the public can come to pay their respects to Kennedy. Don't be surprised if the shrine continues to grow.

http://muvdigital.net/ The whereabouts of Andrei Babitsky, a Russian journalist being employed by U.S.-funded Radio Liberty, remained a mystery Thursday, amid a flurry of reports that cast doubt on official versions with the events leading to his disappearance. Babitsky, one among only a handful of reporters to cover the conflict from rebel-held territory, had brought unprecedented attacks from angry Russian officials. He has been at the center of a political and diplomatic outcry since Russian forces arrested him recently. Russian forces said a week ago they had turned him to Chechen rebels in a prisoner exchange.Radio Liberty head Mario Corti told CBS News that he had received information indicating that Babitsky was being held captive in cell by pro-Moscow militiamen in Chechnya's second-largest city, Gudermes. One of the reporter's former cellmates passed on a message. "This person told us he had been beaten with tools that don't leave traces," Corti said.Conti also said the Russian video where he was apparently handed to Chechen rebels was a fake. "That was staged, every one of the experts say that. The main thing is that this business are masked so there isn't any way we can tell, It is hardly plausible a Chechen fighter might wear a mask. They like a lot to show their faces. That's very much in their mentality," Corti said. Rebel chief Bislan Gantamirov said that neither he nor his people had detained or arrested Babitsky. "All reports about this and accusations against us are a total invention, the aim of which would be to increase tension and discredit everyone and the fighters of our militia," he stated.Russian television networks broadcast tape of Babitsky allegedly made on Monday. Within it he says "I'm relatively okay. I want all this to end as soon as possible."The U.S. State Department issued a strong statement on Wednesday urging an exploration and asking "Russian officials to come clean" and punish those guilty of wrongful acts in the Babitsky case.©2000 CBS Worldwide Inc.
