    Rights to privacy- impact on post Soviet era Russia

    Post Soviet Russia period began in the the early 90's. This was a transition period for the country coming out of communism. Privacy is a big challenge for all nations large and small but for Russia during this period this was even a greater challenge. The country was very unstable during the early years with a wars and a poor economy. The people did not trust the government and many was were unemployed. The new government had to prove its self to the world.


    We look at Privacy in the three areas Physical, Informational and Organizational


    Physical Privacy - named Graphics, Videos, or access to someone's home or Vehicle. Moving from the communist era were the government was in charge of everything. People did not trust the government because of past practices.

    Informational Privacy - Includes Financial ,Internet ,Medical ,sexual and political privacy.
    Concerns exist wherever data relating to a personal data collected and stored. The fear of this information being used against a person or who should have access to this type of data. These types of fears in Russia and other nations outside of the country slowed business progress and hurt the economy. The trusting of the government and its people from the past of communism to time to get over.


    Organizational Privacy- Government and large companies keep some of their activities secret for security and competition reasons. The Russian government doing this era has kept many of the past information classified. It also normal for thier companies to kept there trade secrets private.


    Overall, privacy to the former Soviet union is proper use of Information of technology or between peoples Business. So the impact is that Privacy is needed and aloud in the Russia to defend of what's right and deal with other nations.

    Some Floodings in the econmy 5th Fact

    (Source 1.) Link :http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flood People in Sangkhom and Si Chiang Mai districts of the northeastern province of Nong Khai are buying more food supplies, as heavy flooding conditions cut them them off from the outside world. Relevant units are urgently assisting the flood-affected people by giving out food items, drinking water, medical supplies and clean sanitation. The flood situation in Nong Khai is still worrying. The water from Mekong River has surged into the city area of the province, adding that rain has continued falling since last night. Many households and stores are flooded even though villagers have laid sandbags and used water pumps to ease the situation. Villagers in some areas have already evacuated to higher grounds.

    (Source 2.) Link : http://www.ucar.edu/communications/factsheets/Flooding.html Flash floods are short-term inundations of small areas such as a town or parts of a city, usually by tributaries and creeks. Heavy rain in a few hours can produce flash flooding even in places where little rain has fallen for weeks or months. If heavy rainfall occurs repeatedly over a wide area, then river or mainstem flooding becomes more likely, in which the main rivers of a region swell and inundate large areas, sometimes well after rainfall has ended. The 1993 Midwest floods were caused by 77 events over several months where rainfall of greater than one inch occurred over areas 100 to 200 miles wide and 400 to 600 miles long. Both flash flooding and river flooding threaten life and property, although the former causes more deaths and the latter more property damage.

    (Source 3.) Link : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flood Floods can also occur in rivers, when the strength of the river is so high it flows out of the river channel, particularly at bends or meanders and cause damage to homes and businesses along such rivers. While flood damage can be virtually eliminated by moving away from rivers and other bodies of water, since time out of mind, people have lived and worked by the water to seek sustenance and capitalize on the gains of cheap and easy travel and commerce by being near water. That humans continue to inhabit areas threatened by flood damage is only evidence that the value of being near the water far exceeds the costs of repeated periodic flooding.

    Heat Waves 4th Fact

    (Source 1.) Link: http://www.floridadisaster.org/bpr/EMTOOLS/Severe/heatwave.htmA heat wave is a prolonged period of excessively hot weather, which may be accompanied by high humidity. There is no universal definition of a heat wave. the term is relative to the usual weather in the area. Temperatures that people from a hotter climate consider normal can be termed a heat wave in a cooler area if they are outside the normal climate pattern for that area. The term is applied both to routine weather variations and to extraordinary spells of heat which may occur only once a century. Severe heat waves have caused catastrophic crop failures, thousands of deaths from hyperthermia, and widespread power outages due to increased use of air conditioning.

    (Source 2.) Link : http://www.floridadisaster.org/bpr/EMTOOLS/Severe/heatwave.htm The heat index is the "APPARENT TEMPERATURE" that describes the combined effect of high air temperature and high humidity. The higher this combination, the more difficult it is for the body to cool itself. If you work outdoors, it is critical that you remain aware of the heat index and take the appropriate precautions.

    (Source 3.) Link: http://www.disastercenter.com/guide/heat.htmlHeat can kill by pushing the human body beyond its limits. Under normal conditions, the body's internal thermostat produces perspiration that evaporates and cools the body. However, in extreme heat and high humidity, evaporation is slowed and the body must work extra hard to maintain a normal temperature. Elderly people, young children, and those who are sick or overweight are more likely to become victims of extreme heat. Because men sweat more than women, they are more susceptible to heat illness because they become more quickly dehydrated
