You may be able to glean a few design ideas from these, not that I am suggesting they are a masterpiece! Legal warning: no part or captured image/s of these pages and/or page designs can be used commercially, given away, or sold on without first obtaining my written permission. Software options I used an old version of QuarkXPress Passport (version 7.3 from my publishing days) to do all the page layout work (with its brilliant page element library) but other alternatives are Adobe InDesign, CorelDRAW and perhaps MS Publisher. You might also want to take a look at AlbumGen (stamp album design software) which can combine with images and data from EzStamp – follow this link https://ezstamp.com/software/stamp-album-software/ Get your pages printed professionally – not on a home printer. In terms of printing your own stamp album pages, most decent digital print shops should be able to print on larger paper size for you (e.g. A3 paper - ideally at 1200 dpi); then also guillotine to whatever final page size is wanted; and then punch/drill holes to suit your binder choice. Paper specification In terms of paper, I highly recommend Mondi Colorcopy 160g/m2 (59 lbs bond) paper – a paper that works really well with digital printing. You could use thicker paper if you wanted. Colorcopy paper is widely available in various paper sizes including A3. This is 100% recyclable, ECF, FSC™ paper containing pulp from tree farms; has a special surface treatment, is non-toxic, CO2 neutral, carries the EU Ecolabel, and is ageing resistance ISO 9706 certified (guaranteed archival life of 200+ yrs). If this is not available to you, then ask your local paper merchant to suggest the nearest paper equivalent. Fixing stamps I have fixed my own stamps using CLEAR Hawid open-top stamp mounts but other options include Showgard mounts or even decent “peelable” stamp hinges with used stamps.

I am not a “dealer”, but as I occasionally buy up collections to help fill gaps in my own collection, more duplicates become available – it’s a ‘dynamic’ situation. I usually sell these (Buy-it-Now and Auction) through my eBay account www.ebay.co.uk/usr/ruskystamps but I do also have collectors that send me their “Wants Lists” from time to time – especially to help fill low value stamp gaps.

Lenin thoroughly appropriated the world view developed by Marx and Engels and let himself be directed by their whole scientific and political activity. Lenin's preserved body is on permanent display at the Lenin Mausoleum in Moscow. Because of Lenin's unique role in the creation of the first Communist state, and despite his expressed wish shortly before his death that no memorials be created for him, his character was elevated over time to the point of near religious reverence. By the 1980s, every major city in the Soviet Union had a statue of Lenin in its central square, either a Lenin street or a Lenin Square near the centre, and often 20 or more smaller statues and busts throughout its terri- tory. Collective farms, medals, hybrids of wheat, and even an asteroid were named after him. Children were taught stories about "granddaddy Lenin" while they were still in kindergarten. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, the level of reverence for Lenin in post-Soviet republics has gone down considerably, but he is still considered an important figure by the generations who grew up during the Soviet period. Most statues of Lenin have been torn down in Eastern Europe, but many still remain in Russia. The city of Leningrad returned to its original name, St Petersburg, but the surrounding Leningrad Oblast still carries his name. The citizens of Ulyanovsk, Lenin's birthplace, have so far resisted all attempts to revert its name to Simbirsk. The subject of interring Lenin's body has been a recurring topic for several years in Russia. 1960 75th Birth Anniv. of Sverdlov 1960 Philatelists' Day Ya. M.

In the 1950s and 60s, the Soviet Union launched missions with passenger slots for at least 57 dogs. The actual number of dogs in space is smaller, as some dogs flew more than once. Most survived; the few that died were lost mostly through technical failures. Belka (literally "Squirrel", but as a dog's name most likely means "Whitey"), and Strelka ("Little Arrow") spent a day in space aboard Korabl-Sputnik-2 (Sputnik 5) on August 19, 1960 before safely returning to Earth.

Ermland), excluding Gdańsk and Toruń, and the Noteć District (Germ. Netzedistrikt) with Bydgoszcz were annexed by the Kingdom of Prussia1. Under a decree of 31 January 1773, the kingdom of Frederic II was expanded to include “West Prussia” (Germ. Westpreussen) as well as an administrative unit referred to as the “East Prussia province” (Germ. Provinz Ostpreussen), comprising Warmia, a region in pre-partition Poland, and Royal Prussia, a fiefdom of the Crown of Poland in 1525-16572. Beginning with the unification of Germany in 1871, East Prussia became a part of the Reich. In 1829, both provinces were formally united into a single “province of Prussia”, but the former division into two provinces of “West Prussia” and “East Prussia” was restored already in 18783. After the World War I, in an attempt to resolve the Polish-Ger­ man dispute over the territories in Warmia, Mazury and Powiśle, the Trea­ ty of Versailles of 28 June 1919 ordered a poll in Prussia. On 11 July 1920, the majority of the local constituents chose to be a part of East 1 S. Salmonowicz, Prusy. Dzieje państwa i społeczeństwa, Warszawa 2004, p. 212; Ch. Clark, Prusy.

The amendment includes key qualification requirements, published by the Russian Ministry of Agriculture in late 2014, as well as lists of breeding stock producers eligible for subsidies from the federal budget (including beef and dairy purebred breeding cattle operations and genetics producers). Moreover, in the spring of 2015, given the current economic situation in Russia, the Russian Ministry of Agriculture issued additional recommendations to support domestic producers of purebred breeding cattle. Unofficial translations of all of the aforementioned publications are contained herein. General Information: On January 27, 2015, the Prime Minister of the Russian Federation, Dmitry Medvedev, signed Resolution No. 50 on amendments to the “Rules for Allocation and Distribution of Subsidies from the Federal Budget to Budgets of

  • Problems Related to Development of the Kaliningrad Region As an Exclave Territory of the Russian Federation
    Problems Related to Development of the Kaliningrad Region As an Exclave Territory of the Russian Federation Moscow 2002 Attitudes towards the geopolitical situation of the Kaliningrad Region of the Russian Federation have dramatically changed of late, both in Russia and abroad. While retaining its traditional significance in Russia’s defense doctrine, that region has come to be seen as a golden opportunity for establishment of closer mutually advantageous cooperation between Russia and the European Un- ion. There is a growing understanding of the fact that thanks to its geographic situation that region can be used as one of the Russian territories to undergo pri- ority integration into Europe’s Common Economic Area. In the present study, the possible scenarios of development of that region are examined from the point of view of such integration with advantages and disadvantages of each of those sce- narios discussed, as well as such problems as may arise in their implementation. Authors: V. Zhdanov, O. Kuznetsova, V. Mau, V. Plyukhin, S. Prikhodko, M. J. Wojciechowski and A. Hecht The present study and publication have been carried out within the framework of the CEPRA Project (a Russian-Canadian applied economic studies project) financed by the Canadian Inter- national Development Agency (CIDA).

Baltma and Kalinin - grad have become a part of my life since my first visit in 1992 and I return every year. Baltma simply is Kaliningrad for most visitors from abroad as they look after you from your arrival to your departure. Your clients may be nervous and uncertain when they arrive, but they will leave satisfied and stimulated. What makes me feel so confident in their hands is the continuity of their staff. Whenever I arrive at the airport or at one of the land borders, I feel I am returning home since the same kind people are there to greet me and the feeling is repeated when I enter the office.
