News sites in Russian

[Benjamin Rifkin]

I thank Sergey for bringing this to my attention.  Of course UW-Madison
will pull the link immediately from our resource list.

This is a good reminder to all of us to check our links periodically
not only to make sure they work, but also to make sure they haven't
been taken over for a purpose other than that which they originally
served.

With best regards to all,

Ben Rifkin
