Experimental Study of Municipal Solid Waste (Msw) Landfills and Non- Authorized Waste Damps Impact on the Environment
Linnaeus ECO-TECH ´10 Kalmar, Sweden, November 22-24, 2010 EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE (MSW) LANDFILLS AND NON- AUTHORIZED WASTE DAMPS IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT Veronica Tarbaeva Dmitry Delarov Committee on Natural Resources of Leningrad region, Russia ABSTRACT A purpose was an analysis of waste disposal sites existing in the Leningrad region and a choice of facilities potentially suitable for the removal and utilization of greenhouse- and other gases. In order to achieve the purpose in view, data were collected on the arrangement of non-authorized landfills and waste dumps within the Leningrad region. The preliminary visual evaluation and instrumental monitoring were carried out for 10 facilities. The evaluation of greenhouse- and other gas emissions into the atmosphere as well as of ground water pollution near places of waste disposal was performed. A databank was created for waste disposal sites where it could be possible to organize the work on removing and utilizing of greenhouse gas. The conducted examination stated that landfills exert negative influence on the environment in the form of emissions into the atmosphere and impurities penetrating underground and surface water. A volume of greenhouse gas emissions calculated in units of СО2 – equivalent from different projects fluctuates from 63.8 to 8091.4 t in units of СО2 – equivalent. Maximum summarized emissions of greenhouse gases in units of СО2 – equivalent were stated for MSW landfills of the towns of Kirishi, Novaya Ladoga and Slantsy, as well as for MSW landfills near Lepsari residential settlement and the town of Vyborg. KEYWORDS Non-authorized waste dumps, MSW landfills, greenhouse gases, atmospheric air pollution, instrumental monitoring. -

We are in California, in the city of Palo Alto, meeting with a veteran of the Great Patriotic War. Please, introduce yourself, tell us what your childhood was like, where you studied, in which family you grew up, how you ended up in the army, and how you spent the war years? Please proceed. My name is Anatoly Kibrik. I was born on May 10, 1924 in Kiev [Kyiv]. When I turned two, my family relocated to Moscow. I was born in a Jewish family. My maternal grandfather was an official rabbi. In Moscow, Father worked in the industrial cooperation system as the commercial director of a factory. I went to school no. 284 in Rostokinsky and then Shcherbakovsky district of Moscow. About 70% of the pupils in our class were Jewish. Everyone went to the front, and only two survived. The rest perished. On June 21, 1941 we had a graduation ball. I kissed a girl for the first time. We wandered the streets of Moscow at night, and that’s when I had my first kiss. And in the morning the war was declared. -

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 bLOSiL ZZLL d ABSTRACT This thesis analyses the external and internal influences on the process of state formation in Oman since 1920 and places this process in comparative perspective with the other states of the Gulf Cooperation Council. It considers the extent to which the concepts of informal empire and collaboration are useful in analysing the relationship between Oman, Britain and the United States. The theoretical framework is the historical materialist paradigm of International Relations. State formation in Oman since 1920 is examined in a historical narrative structured by three themes: (1) the international context of Western involvement, (2) the development of Western strategic interests in Oman and (3) their economic, social and political impact on Oman. -

White October is an operational scale game simulating the offensive of the white General Yudenich against the cradle of the Russian revolution, Petrograd. One player takes control of the Bolsheviks (the “Red player”), the other the White camp, which comprises the North West Army (NWA), the Estonians and the British (the “White player”). Two 6 sided dice (d6) are required to play the game (and two 10 sided dice (d10) for the optional random events). 1 GENERAL COMMENTS AND DEFINITIONS 1.1 THE MAP • When the combat values of several units taking part in the • Half hexes are playable. same combat have to be divided, it is the sum of these values • A system of coordinates (ex : 09/F) is used to identify the that is divided. hexagons.

Research for this report was commissioned by liquid logistics company Haanpaa Group. The main purpose of the project was to supply the Haanpaa Group with basic marketing information regarding potential customers, competitors and infrastructural development in the City of St. Petersburg. The point of view of the research was that of logistics. The topic was divided into three distinct parts which together form a balanced review of the research subject. The main objectives of the project were to identify potential customers, existing competitors and ongoing or forthcoming development projects of the St. Petersburg transport and logistics infrastructure. The search for potential customers included collecting data from Russian corporate websites and business portals. A number of Russian companies were also approached by e-mail to request additional information. Competitors were identified by collecting data online as well as by relating to recent literate sources. -
