Putin to visit children's haematology, oncology, immunology centre.
.
MOSCOW, November 11 (Itar-Tass) -- Prime Minister Vladimir Putin will
visit the Federal Scientific and Clinical Centre of Children's
Haematology, Oncology and Immunology in Moscow on Thursday, November 11.
The history of the centre dates back to 2005 when Putin received a
letter from Dima Rogachev who had invited the prime minister to eat
pancakes with him. Putin visited the 10-year-old boy in August 2005 at the
Russian Children's Clinical Hospital where he was undergoing treatment for
leucosis. It was after that meeting that Putin ordered the construction of
a specialised oncology centre for children.
Dima died on September 20, 2007 at an Israeli clinic at the age of 12.
The German company Transumed GmbH Medizintechnik started building the
centre in August 2008. The prime minister visited the construction site
and oversaw the project personally. At a meeting with the organisers of
the charitable party "Little Prince" on May 29, 2010 in St. Petersburg, he
suggested naming the new centre after Dima Rogachev.
The main purpose of Putin's visit to the centre is to check the status
of the project ahead of its commissioning scheduled for June 1, 2011 --
Child Protection Day. The prime minister will join the children who have
been cured from oncology diseases, the centre's employees and members of
the charitable foundation "Give a Life" in planting flowers and trees on
the centre's premises.
The centre will be the largest and technologically most advanced
medical institution of such type in Europe. It will incorporate two
clinical wings, a laboratory and functional diagnostics wing, a
consultative polyclinic with a day-care centre for 20 patients and a
rehabilitation centre, as well as training and research centres. The
centre will be able to accommodate 400 children at the same time.
There will also be a recreation centre for children and their parents
for 150 rooms, with a helicopter pad. The patients will be accommodated at
the recreation centre during 2-3-week breaks between intensive
chemotherapy cycles and after transplantation.
A special emphasis will be placed on bone marrow transplantation. This
is one of the most needed types of medical care in the country as only 150
bone marrow transplantation operations are performed on children a year
while demand is 800-1,000 operations. The new centre will make 250-300
such operations every year.
Radiation therapy is another key type of medical help to be provided
at the centre. There is no other such centre for children in Russia at the
moment. The new centre will have the most up-to-date equipment for
radiation treatment. The centre will carry out practically all kinds of
tests, including molecular-genetic ones. It will also have its own blood
centre.
In 2009, there were 799.5 oncology cases per 100,000 children under
the age of 17. Malignant tumours were found in 2,706 children aged 0 to 14.
.Up to 100,000 domains can be registered in RF zone by yearend.
MOSCOW, November 11 (Itar-Tass) -- As many as 100,000 domains can be
registered in the ".RF" zone by the end of the year, the director of the
Coordination Centre for TLD .RU, Andrei Kolesnikov, said ahead of public
registration of new domain names to begin on Thursday, November 11.
He believes that "several dozen thousand sites can be registered on
the first day."
"The average cost of registration for an .RF website is 500-600
roubles, the same as for the .RU zone," he said on Wednesday, November 10.
He recalled that only Russian citizens and legal entities registered
in Russia would have access to public registration. Eighteen Russian
registrars will receive the applications.
The administrator of a domain cannot be changed for a year after
registration. But "these restrictions will be temporary and will be lifted
in the future," Kolesnikov added.
He confirmed that "the Coordination Centre has decided to draw up a
stop list for the .RF zone" to ban the use of obscene words in the domain
names.
"There is already a list of 4,500-5,000 words and word combinations
that cannot be used in the names of websites," he said.
.New war memorial in Moscow to be unveiled Dec 19.
MOSCOW, November 11 (Itar-Tass) -- The war memorial "We were together
in the struggle against fascism" at Moscow's Poklonny Hill will be
unveiled on December 19, the first anniversary of the war monument
demolition in Kutaisi, Georgia, Moscow Deputy Mayor Valery Vinogradov said.
"The work on the monument is in the final stage and is proceeding as
scheduled. We are monitoring the situation all the time. The monument will
be unveiled, as planned, on December 19, the first anniversary of the
demolition of the monument to the heroes of the Great Patriotic War in
Kutaisi," he said on Wednesday, November 10.
The design of the monument was selected in the middle of July 2010,
but Moscow's architectural commission slightly altered the shape of its
base and its rear side, increased the area in front of the monument, and
added a symbol of the war memorial demolished in Kutaisi, while preserving
the overall concept.
