NEW YORK (AP) ? Marilyn Monroe's letter of despair to mentor Lee Strasberg, and Dwight D. Eisenhower's heartfelt missives to his wife during World War II are among hundreds of historical documents being offered in an online auction.
Monroe's handwritten, undated letter to the famed acting teacher is expected to fetch $30,000 to $50,000 in the May 30 sale.
"My will is weak but I can't stand anything. I sound crazy but I think I'm going crazy," Monroe wrote on Hotel Bel-Air letterhead stationery. "It's just that I get before a camera and my concentration and everything I'm trying to learn leaves me. Then I feel like I'm not existing in the human race at all."
The 58 Eisenhower letters, handwritten between 1942 and 1945, range from news of the war to the Allied commander's devotion to his wife, Mamie. They are believed to be among the largest group of Eisenhower letters to survive intact and could bring up to $120,000, said Joseph Maddalena, whose Profiles in History is auctioning the items.
They are among 250 letters and documents being sold by an anonymous American collector. Selected items will be exhibited April 8-16 at Douglas Elliman's Madison Avenue art gallery.
Also included is a typed, undated draft letter from John Lennon to Linda and Paul McCartney that reflects the deep animosity between the two Beatles around the time of the foursome's formal 1971 breakup. The two-page letter is unsigned and contains corrections. A photographic logo on the stationery shows Lennon and his wife Yoko Ono within a circle with their lips almost touching.
"Do you really think most of today's art came about because of the Beatles? I don't believe you're that insane ? Paul ? do you believe that? When you stop believing it you might wake up!" Lennon writes. It's expected to fetch $40,000 to $60,000.
Other highlights include two large photo albums that Adolph Hitler and Benito Mussolini exchanged prior to War World II.
"When Mussolini and Hitler visited each other before the war, they would each have their photographers document their trips," Maddalena said. "They really documented the regalia, the flags, the uniforms, tanks and all the pomp and circumstance, and them speaking and reviewing the troops."
The leather-bound albums, containing hundreds of images, have a pre-sale estimate of up to $50,000.
The sale is the second of several planned online auctions of the anonymous collector's artifacts. The entire collection contains 3,000 items.

Two teenage girls accused of threatening the 16-year-old victim in the Steubenville, Ohio, rape case were released on house arrest Wednesday and ordered not to use social media.
Just days after two teenage boys from Steubenville, Ohio, were convicted of rape, two teen girls were arrested and charged with threatening the victim over Twitter. NBC's Ron Allen reports.
The girls were arrested in the aftermath of the guilty verdicts of two high school football player, Trent Mays, 17, and Ma?lik Richmond, 16, who a judge found raped the West Virginia girl during a night of heavy drinking.
The case drew national notoriety to the small Ohio town where the successful ?Big Red? high school football team is a source of community pride.
Social media postings of images, video and text messages played a unique role in the prosecution?s case. A 12-minute video shocked many for the callous and profane way the boys discussed raping the victim.
In Wednesday's juvenile court hearing, defense attorneys for the two accused girls entered a denial to the charges, equivalent to a not guilty plea, NBC station WTOV reported.
The judge and prosecution also discussed releasing information from the girls? twitter accounts and cell phones.
In addition releasing the girls to their homes, the judge ordered them not to contact the victim, a West Virginia resident. The accused girls had been held at a juvenile detention center.
The original rape trial verdict was announced on Sunday, March 18, and by the next day State Attorney Mike DeWine had charged a 16-year-old girl with aggravated menacing for threatening the victim?s live on Twitter, and a charged? a 15-year-old girl with menacing and threatening bodily harm to the victim on Facebook.
According to NBC station WPXI, which cited an investigator, one of the threats on Twitter said, ?You ripped my family apart. You made my cousin cry. So when I see you it?s going to be homicide.?
A wide-ranging investigation is also under way that could lead to more charges in the case, DeWine said after the verdict.

A workable bailout program for troubled Cyprus banks has apparently been sealed and, despite much speculation last week, it has been accomplished with minimal Russian participation.
Moscow has not only declined to get deeply involved in saving the enormous Russian-owned assets that are at risk in the Cyprus crisis, but the loud Russian protests that were heard around the world last week over the European Union-brokered plan to bail out the near bankrupt little country have largely died down. And it's not entirely clear why.
The new plan, which will restructure the island's two main banks ? Bank of Cyprus and Laiki Bank ? involves a much bigger "haircut" for wealthy depositors than the controversial first plan envisioned. That suggests that rich Russians, who reportedly hold about $31 billion, or almost a third of the total deposited in Cypriot banks, may take a whack of up to 30 percent on their holdings.
RECOMMENDED: Do you know anything about Russia? A quiz.
Yet the response in Moscow has been far more muted than it was last week, when President Vladimir Putin raged that the plan for a much smaller one-time levy on all bank accounts was "unprofessional and dangerous," while Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev denounced it as "confiscation."
This time the Kremlin has, with apparent reluctance, thrown its backing behind the bailout deal that was hammered out Monday between Cypriot leaders and the European Union. Russia's finance ministry said it may ease terms of repayment, and even write down part of a $2.5-billion loan Moscow made to Cyprus in 2011, if the little country manages to stabilize its banking system.
"Taking into account the Euro Group?s decisions, Mr. Putin said he considers it possible to support the President of Cyprus? and the European Commission?s efforts to overcome the crisis in Cyprus? economy and financial and banking system," said a statement posted on the Kremlin's official website Monday.
"We are watching how the situation develops. We are not indifferent to the decisions that are taken," Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov told journalists.
CHANGE IN TUNE
Experts in Moscow are scratching their heads over the Kremlin's change in tune. Some say they had fully expected Putin to put up a loan for the $7.5 billion ? chump change for a government that's spending $51 billion just to hold the Winter Olympics in Sochi next year ? that might have saved the Cyprus banking system, along with thousands of Russian depositors. The little country may also have retained its function as the main offshore zone where scores of big and powerful Russian companies not only do their banking, but also incorporate.
"I think it would have been easy for Russia to bail out Cyprus; it's really not a lot of money by Moscow's standards. Now Russians, and Russia, are going to lose a lot," not only through the expected hit on Russian depositors, but also as a result of the tough capital controls that are expected to be enacted before Cyprus banks open Thursday, says Alexei Vedev, a financial analyst with the Gaidar Institute for Economic Policy in Moscow.
"Now, I'm afraid Cyprus is finished as an offshore financial center. Russian companies will remove their assets from the place as quickly as they can," he adds. Some analysts argue that Moscow backed off after the European Union made it clear that no Russian-backed solution for Cyprus would be acceptable.
"Europe kept Russia out of the loop, and demonstrated that it did not want Russian participation. German Chancellor Angela Merkel was very firm on this, saying that Cyprus is part of the eurozone and the problems will be solved between European countries," says Mikhail Delyagin, director of the independent Institute for Globalization Problems in Moscow.
"So, what can Russia do? This was not just Germany, but the united position of the EU. They have solved the problem at Russia's expense, with maximum cruelty. Europe betrayed Russia," he adds.
HOW MUCH RUSSIAN MONEY IS EXPOSED?
Some analysts argue that Moscow may have grown quieter upon realizing that less Russian money than once feared is exposed to the Cypriot levy.
No one knows for sure how much Russian money is actually in the two major Cypriot banks that are to be restructured, but there's one school of thought that estimates much of it is deposited in banks that are unaffected by the new plan. The current deal leaves several solvent commercial banks mostly untouched, including the Russian Commercial Bank of Cyprus, which is owned by the huge Russian state bank VTB.
That said, Mr. Vedev points out that "VTB has a very active private banking branch on Cyprus, but it only has a few clients.... Most Russian entrepreneurs prefer to keep their money in foreign-owned [non-Russian] banks when they go to offshore zones, for reasons we can well imagine."
Some Russians may also have been lured to the now-troubled banks by extremely high interest rates in euro-denominated accounts. "Banks in Cyprus had built a financial pyramid, with interest rates of around 10 percent," says Vassily Solodkov, a banking expert with the Higher School of Economics in Moscow.
Some of the magnets for Russian cash are now at the center of the crisis. According to a source quoted by the Financial Times "a majority of the deposits of more than ?100,000 at the Bank of Cyprus and Laiki Bank are ultimately owned by Russian beneficiaries.... [W]hile Russian clients from other Cypriot lenders, such as Russian Commercial Bank, will no longer see their deposits taxed, they are still likely to incur losses under expected capital controls, which would halt most large-scale money transfers for months to come."
But even if a lot of Russian money once resided in the exposed banks, it may have since been withdrawn, argues the independent Center for Research on Globalization in Montreal, Canada. The wealthiest Russians ? who would be those closest to the Kremlin ? may have used the political chaos of last week to quietly spirit their money out of Cyprus through a major loophole: the Bank of Cyprus owns 80 percent of a Russian bank, Uniastrum Bank, which placed no restrictions last week on how much cash its Russian depositors could withdraw.
"In other words, by now any big Russian funds in Cyprus are long gone, and the only damage accrues to the locals," the report says.
A QUIET PUNISHMENT FOR TAX DODGING?
Another possibility is that Putin, who has launched a major anti-corruption drive at home, has decided to use the situation to end the practice of "round-tripping" by Russian companies, who incorporate their big Russian operations in Cyprus so that they can enjoy the little island's 10 percent profit tax, instead of the 20 percent they would pay in Russia.
"Putin has always been against offshoring," and this may be a chance to rein it in, says Vedov.
"But for Russian entrepreneurs, it's always been a question of taxation and property rights. Doing business in Russia is bad on both counts, and that's why they look elsewhere. Until some key reforms take place in Russia, the Russian rich will still try to take there cash offshore. And there are lots of candidate-countries that will be delighted to take the place of Cyprus, and hold their cash for them," he adds.

By Margaret Chadbourn
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Senator Tim Johnson, the Democratic chairman of the powerful banking committee, does not plan to run for re-election when his current term ends in 2014, two sources familiar with the matter and a Capitol Hill staffer said on Monday.
Johnson, 66, a three-term senator from South Dakota, has scheduled a news conference for Tuesday in his home state to discuss what his aides described as "his future plans."
His retirement would leave a vacant seat in a conservative-leaning state that could be difficult for Democrats to defend as they try to protect their majority in the Senate.
Political analysts expect Johnson's son, Brendan Johnson, who is South Dakota's U.S. attorney, to emerge as a potential Democratic candidate in the 2014 election. The younger Johnson has not announced any formal plans to seek the Senate seat.
Former Democratic Representative Stephanie Herseth Sandlin, who lost a bid for reelection in 2010, is another leading choice to run if the incumbent senator retires, analysts said.
Johnson's exit from Congress would create an opening at the top of the banking committee, which he has led since 2011.
Currently, Rhode Island Senator Jack Reed is the second-ranking Democrat on the panel. However, Reed might take on a leadership role over the Senate Armed Services Committee for retiring Senator Carl Levin, based on his seniority in Congress.
New York's Chuck Schumer is next in line to take over the gavel after that, followed by New Jersey's Bob Menendez, and then Ohio's Sherrod Brown.
"The immediate question becomes who is next on deck. When you go through seniority and those next in line, you have three lawmakers that are likely to pass on the gavel and it could eventually fall to Sherrod Brown to lead the panel," said Isaac Boltansky, a policy analyst at Compass Point Research & Trading.
He noted Brown is one of the most progressive members of the Senate. "Suddenly, we'll get to 2014 with Brown at the helm and one of the most progressive committees in the Senate."
Johnson joined the Senate in 1997 after a decade representing South Dakota in the House of Representatives. He has faced physical challenges following a blood vessel bursting in his brain in 2006, which has noticeably slowed his speech. He went through physical and speech therapy, and made a comeback and held onto the Senate seat in 2008.
Democratic Senators Tom Harkin of Iowa, Levin of Michigan, Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey and Jay Rockefeller of West Virginia have already announced plans to retire when their terms end. Republicans Saxby Chambliss of Georgia and Mike Johanns of Nebraska also have said they will not run for re-election.
Overall, 35 of the 100 Senate seats are up for election in 2014, of which 21 are now held by Democrats and 14 are held by Republicans. The Republicans need a net gain of six seats to take control of the chamber.
Johnson, who was facing a tough reelection bid and was widely expected not to run next year, took over the lead gavel on the Senate Banking Committee following the retirement of Connecticut Democrat Christopher Dodd.
He has stood in as one of the chief defenders of the Dodd-Frank Act, the 2010 overhaul of the nation's financial regulatory system that largely passed along party lines.
Johnson has also been responsible for ensuring President Barack Obama's political nominees garner the votes needed for confirmation, including Federal Reserve governors and officials at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
The committee recently pushed through two White House appointments, allowing former federal prosecutor Mary Jo White's nomination to lead the Securities and Exchange Commission to head to the full Senate floor, along with Richard Cordray, to continue on as the head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
During his tenure as the lead Democrat on the banking panel, Johnson has pressed federal regulators and those in the financial services industry. Johnson called Chief Executive Officer Jamie Dimon to speak before the committee in 2012 to question the JPMorgan Chase CEO on billions of dollars in trading losses.
In his time overseeing the banking committee, Johnson has also helped obtain the reauthorization of the National Flood Insurance Program and the Export-Import bank.
While Johnson has held a number of hearings on the U.S. housing finance system and the government's role in the mortgage market, the leading Democrat has yet to press ahead on crafting legislation that would address the future of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Motion sensor-based golf devices are all the rage these days, but they mostly target the full swing. Can such electronics be accurate enough to measure a much smaller stroke, namely the all-important putt? Since golf season's nearly here, we decided to find out with the $200 3BaysGSA Putt, a tiny, lightweight device that fits in the handle of a putter and relays stroke information via Bluetooth to an Android or iOS device. As Engadget's resident golf nut, yours truly put the device through its paces both objectively and in a less-than-formal way to see whether it could accurately track a stroke. Will it help you lift your putter in victory, or make you wrap it around a tree? Hit the break to see how we did.

Gaping security holes are a pretty terrifying thing, especially when they involve something as sensitive as your Apple ID. Sadly it seems that immediately after making the paranoid happy by instituting two-step authentication a pretty massive flaw in Cupertino's system was discovered and first reported by The Verge. Turns out you can reset any Apple ID password with nothing more than a person's email address and date of birth -- two pieces of information that are pretty easy to come across. There's a little more to the hack, but it's simple enough that even your non-tech savvy aunt or uncle could do it. After entering the target email address in the password reset form you can then select to answer security questions to validate your identity. The first task will be to enter a date of birth. If you enter that correctly then paste a particular URL into the address bar (which we will not be publishing for obvious reasons), press enter, then -- voilà -- instant password reset! Or, at least that's the story. While we were attempting to verify these claims Apple took down the password reset page for "maintenance." Though we've received no official confirmation from Apple, it seems the company is moving swiftly to shut down this particularly troublesome workaround before word of it spreads too far.

Democrats on Tuesday confirmed that a ban on assault weapons will not be included in a package of gun reform legislation yet to be introduced in the Senate, suggesting the measure does not have broad support in Congress.
The bill's sponsor, Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California, confirmed to reporters Tuesday that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid will remove an assault weapons ban from a package of gun reform legislation and offer it separately as an amendment.
"I very much regret it," Feinstein said of Reid's decision. "I tried my best."
Reid's decision signals how politically volatile the issue of an assault weapons ban remains and suggests a broad package of gun reform measures would die in the Senate if it included an assault weapons ban due to lack of broad support-- something many political observers had long suggested.
Following the Dec. 14 mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School, Feinstein introduced legislation to reinstate a ban on assault weapons, which was first passed in 1994 under President Bill Clinton and expired in 2004.
But despite a new energy to reduce gun violence in the wake of the shooting, a ban on assault weapons remains a politically volatile issue. A vote on an assault weapons ban threatens to place vulnerable Democrats in a tough electoral position and continues to be highly unpopular among Republicans.
The Senate Judiciary Committee on March 14 passed Feinstein's bill, which would ban assault weapons as well as magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition. It's passage was hailed by Democrats including President Barack Obama, who has advocated for the ban.
"These weapons of war, when combined with high-capacity magazines, have one purpose: to inflict maximum damage as quickly as possible.? They are designed for the battlefield, and they have no place on our streets, in our schools, or threatening our law enforcement officers," Obama said in a statement.

LONDON (AP) ? A collection of some of Princess Diana's most memorable evening gowns, including one she wore to a White House dinner where she danced with John Travolta, fetched over 800,000 pounds ($1.2 million) at a London auction Tuesday.
Diana famously wore the deep navy, figure-hugging velvet gown to a gala dinner hosted by President Ronald Reagan, during her and Prince Charles' first joint state visit to the U.S. in 1985. Photographs of her taking to the White House dance floor with Travolta have become some of the most celebrated images of the princess.
The Victor Edelstein gown was sold for 240,000 pounds, Kerry Taylor Auctions said. It came slightly below the expected maximum price of 300,000 pounds.
The auction house did not disclose the identity of the buyer, only saying it was sold to a "British gentleman as a surprise to cheer up his wife."
Nine other of Diana's dresses were sold to bidders, which came from around the world and included three museums, the auction house said.
Two dresses by Catherine Walker, one of Diana's favorite designers, went for 108,000 pounds each. They were a black velvet and beaded gown worn for a Vanity Fair photo shoot by Mario Testino at Kensington Palace in 1997, and a burgundy crushed velvet gown the princess wore to the film premiere of "Back to the Future" in 1985.
Diana sold dozens of her dresses at a New York charity auction at the suggestion of her son, Prince William, in 1997 ? three months before she died in a Paris car crash. Florida-based socialite Maureen Dunkel bought about a dozen of the dresses ? including the 10 to be sold next month ? and put them up for auction in Canada in 2011, but the prices were set too high and many dresses didn't sell.
