	SPACE.com -- Next 'Space Tourist' to Go to ISS Only After Creation of Legal Base
		Rosaviakosmos also said that it is not releasing official information regarding NASA's demand for compensation from Russia for crew work time lost because of Tito's visit to the space station.
		Rosaviakosmos and Energia are engaged in talks on who will be the next space tourist, agency chief Yuri Koptev told the press, speaking about Tito's flight.
		Rosaviakosmos is currently drawing up criteria for selecting amateur cosmonauts, Koptev said, noting that this is expected to help avoid future disagreements with the U.S. like to those that arose before Tito's flight.

	SPACE.com -- Is He or Isn't He? Russian Space Officials Disagree Whether Lance Bass is Off October Soyuz
		Rosaviakosmos started the day by walking out of negotiations with Bass after he and his backers missed another deadline for payment of his reported $20 million ticket to space.
		The reason that Rosaviakosmos would not comment on whether the contract has been terminated is that Bass still has a "chance" to fly to ISS, an Energia official said in a telephone interview on Tuesday.
		The Bass situation has taught Rosaviakosmos that it is better to deal with those who pay for their trips out of their own pocket, as South African Mark Shuttleworth and American Dennis Tito did in April of 2002 and in April of 2001 respectively, according to Kreydenko.

	Prepared Statement by Mike Hawes
		In literally every interaction with Rosaviakosmos and its contractors at all levels, all NASA officials, myself included, clearly communicate that NASA fully supports and implements the U.S. Government’s nonproliferation efforts and that NASA would be obligated to take action against any organizations that violate the MTCR or associated nonproliferation norms and guidelines.
		The Agency is using a sound methodology to determine which goods and services are necessary to meet U.S. standards for crew training, to ensure operational capability, and to reduce the overall safety risk to the ISS and its crew.
		We believe that the procurement of limited goods and services from Rosaviakosmos will prevent the occurrence of conditions that would pose a threat of imminent loss of life by or grievous injury to individuals aboard the ISS and will enable U.S. personnel to respond promptly and effectively to those that do occur.
