Nothing saved, but I'm looking...don't know if I'll be fruitful, but I've got the who, what, when and a partial on the where.

Clinton fundraiser with Russian 'mafia' figure prompts questionsA prominent Russian business figure connected by U.S. intelligence to organized crime, weapons trafficking, and nuclear smuggling was invited to at least two fundraising dinners with President Bill Clinton, reports Christopher Ruddy of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. The Democratic National Committee (DNC) invited Grigory Loutchansky, head of the Vienna-based firm Nordex, to a dinner with the president in October 1993, at which the alleged mafioso spoke briefly with Clinton and posed with him for a photo. The Tribune-Review publishes a photo of Clinton and Loutchansky that appeared in a Russian-language newspaper in Latvia. The Pittsburgh paper's report is based on a lengthy investigative story on Loutchansky in the July 8 issue of Time magazine.A Weekly Opinion Column from Accuracy in Media's Reed Irvine and Joe Goulden
It is easy to see why Loutchansky was delighted to be invited to a fundraising dinner with President Clinton in a Washington museum in October 1993. He told Time magazine in an unpublished interview obtained by the Tribune-Review that he had a private two-minute conversation with the President. In his native Latvia, a newspaper published a story about the "billionaire who likes Soviet youth" meeting with President Clinton, illustrated with a photo showing them chatting. Loutchansky said Sam Domb, a New York real estate operator, invited him to the dinner, and Domb is also in the photo.

I probably have that picture, and many other rare ones.
I can't email them, but if someone has an FTP server and can set up an account for a photo gallery, that could work.

Hey folks - may have a pic or two for your harddrive.
The server they're on is being a bit moody tonight (at least towards me it is), so your "viewing mileage" may vary.

A little gamma and size adjustment worked wonders for the black & white pic. The orig was plain nasty. It originally appeared in the Latvian newspaper SM Today. Tried to find a pic of Domb for comparison, but the only one I had showed him with a microphone stuck right in the middle of his face, wouldn't you know it. Oh well, just think somewhere along the lines of Jeopordy's host Alex Trebek (before he cut his hair back).
