>        In response to a recent question about the new Russian language
>newspaper for beginning/intermediate students of Russian "Kljuch k Rossii":  I
>came across a copy of the Jan./Feb. issue and was very impressed with the
>format, the layout and overall content (articles in Russian with English
>glosses about Russian history, culture, current events, etc.).  If immediate
>theft (the copy that I had made available quickly disappeared) is any
>indication of student interest, then it was a big hit!  Unfortunately, I just
>found out that the publisher has decided to discontinue the paper due to lack
>of interest and funds.  If you would like to contact the publisher (with whom
>I am in no way affiliated), who asked for any suggestions or advice on the
>concept of a Russian publication for students, the address is

>similar supplementary materials to use in the classroom that are current,
>relevant to the "typical" undergraduate (although I'm not really sure what I
