With the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, the demand for medical equipment has increased exponentially. Russian companies have responded by increasing production. In this, they were helped by experts from federal and regional competence centers in the field of labor productivity, working within the framework of the national project of the same name.
Gorky Communication Equipment Factory by the name of Popov (GZAS by the name of Popov), consultants on increasing labor productivity helped to triple the efficiency of employees. Among the novelties of this company are multifunctional security complexes for entrance groups. These are frames that are installed at the entrance to the stadium, concert hall, exhibition grounds. What is special is that they not only serve as a metal detector and facial identifier, but they also know how to disinfect passing people, check their masks and measure their body temperature. All operations take about five seconds.
This equipment is now ready to be put into production. It would be impossible to create it quickly, given the increased health demands of the pandemic, without state support, which included both training in progressive methods of production management, and a concessional loan from the Fund. industrial development as part of the epidemic control program. diseases.
At JSC “ Medoborudovanie & # 39; & # 39; (Republic of Mordovia) national project “ Labor productivity '' helped to eliminate the third quarter without falling production while maintaining the amount of goods produced. This company specializes in the production of medical disinfection equipment based on GAZ and KAMAZ vehicle chassis, as well as water stills.
And the company from Novosibirsk Varmeks The Federal Labor Productivity Competence Center (FCC) has been instrumental in making major improvements to the manufacturing processes for moisture resistant doors. Among the facilities where they are used are multifunctional medical centers built to combat the coronavirus by order of the Ministry of Defense.
“ Productivity increased, scrap rates decreased, and revenues increased. Due to the increase in productivity, changes in the motivation system and other activities, the salaries of the employees at the pilot site increased by 30%. At the same time, employees also receive compensation for proposals to improve production and business processes', '' CEO of Varmeks LLC talks about the results of the FCC Victor Kudryashov project.
During six months of working with experts to increase labor productivity, the volume of moisture-resistant doors increased by 50%. If previously, before participating in the national project, the lead time for orders was 15 days, now company employees can process it in 10.
During the coming winter, more snow than usual may fall over most of the territory of Russia. This is reported on the Phobos Center website.
In which regions will it be unusually snowy?
The greatest deviations from the norms for the amount of precipitation are expected in the south of Russia, as well as in the upper reaches of Ob and Yenisei, in the Baikal region and the northern Far East.
A lot of snow can fall in central Russia. For example, in Moscow, the height of snow cover is expected to exceed the norm by almost a quarter. In the lower Volga, Kolyma region and southern Siberia, the height of snowdrifts can be 1.5-2 times higher than long-term values.
What is the reason?
Such a long-range forecast is made by meteorologists as part of a break from global warming in the Arctic. In 2021, the ice in the Arctic Ocean turned out to be more than in 2020, by nearly one million square kilometers, according to Phobos. This is expected to have a significant impact on the weather in the northern hemisphere over the coming winter. & Nbsp;
Due to the preservation of ice, the circumpolar vortex, which forms in the free atmosphere over the North Pole, may become more powerful. As a result, the arctic jet stream will be pushed further and further south, into the area where cyclones will move near the earth's surface. As a result, the number of incursions from the Arctic Ocean will increase. Along with this, according to Phobos, the west-east transport of air masses will become more intense.
In the United States, approximately 500,000 liters of oil ended up in the Pacific Ocean as a result of a pipeline leak. The leak occurred on the Amplify Energy pipeline in the Orange County area of Southern California. Authorities estimate the spill area at around 33 square kilometers. The oil slick is approximately 12 kilometers long and the spill has yet to be contained. Teams of specialists on water and on land are engaged in eliminating the consequences of the accident.

The Russian Defense Ministry reported that the nuclear submarine Severodvinsk; carried out the second successful launch of the & nbsp; Zircon hypersonic cruise missile depth 40 & nbsp; m of the & nbsp; White sea in & nbsp; target conditional on & nbsp; Barents.
On the morning of October 4, the military department reported that the same submarine had fired Zircon. from the surface position of & nbsp; and, judging by the video presented, the launches took place at night. As reported in the military department of & nbsp;, according to & nbsp; objective control data, the rocket flight of & nbsp; exit from & nbsp; water to & nbsp; hit & nbsp; conditional target fully matched the specified target parameters. This launch was carried out within the framework of & nbsp; flight design testing, and condition tests will be carried out in & nbsp; 2022 with & nbsp; subsequent adoption of the rocket for & nbsp; armament. Before & nbsp; this rocket has been tested from & nbsp; aircraft carrier: the lead frigate of project 22350 “ Admiral Gorshkov ''. No & nbsp; less than four tests were performed on the & nbsp; of the ship.
The Russian Navy Command has big plans for these missiles. Zircon can be launched from & nbsp; the same launchers as & nbsp; P-800 “ Onyx '' anti-ship missiles already adopted for & nbsp; and & nbsp; & quot; Caliber & quot;. Among the possible carriers of this weapon & nbsp; & mdash; the aircraft carrier cruiser Admiral of the Fleet of the Soviet Union Kuznetsov, currently under modernization. The only Russian aircraft carrier is expected to receive 3S14 universal launchers, designed to launch these promising cruise missiles. Complexes for their launch may appear on heavy nuclear missile cruisers “ Admiral Nakhimov '' & # 39; & # 39; and & nbsp; & # 39; Peter the Great & # 39;, on & nbsp; promising nuclear destroyers of Project 23560 & # 39; Leader & # 39;, nuclear submarines of Project 885M & # 39; Ash-M & # 39; and & nbsp; 949A & laquo; Antey & raquo ;.
Zircon (3M22) & nbsp; & mdash; Russian hypersonic anti-ship cruise missile of the 3K22 Zircon complex, developed by NPO Mashinostroyenia (part of the Tactical Missile Corporation). The missile is intended to replace the P-700 Granit heavy anti-ship missile. The fundamental difference between zircon is significantly higher flight speed both in & nbsp; compared to & nbsp; other Russian anti-ship missiles, and & nbsp; in & nbsp; compared to & nbsp; anti-ship missiles on & nbsp; weapons from other countries. The main purpose of this rocket & nbsp; & mdash; enemy surface ships of different classes (from frigates to aircraft carriers), and also from the ground. The speed of Zircon, according to & nbsp; various sources, reached & nbsp; 9000 & nbsp; km/h, making it inaccessible to existing enemy missile defense systems. It is almost impossible to dodge such a missile, it is quite difficult to detect its launch.
Dates of the start of serial production of the Zircons are still unknown, as well as & nbsp; other information about them. Presumably, mass production of missiles can begin in the coming years. Former President of Russia Vladimir Putin reported that Zircon hypersonic missiles will be put into & nbsp; alert in & nbsp; in the near future. & nbsp; 24 & nbsp; August a contract was signed for & nbsp; Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. In & nbsp; & laquo; NPO Mashinostroyenia & raquo; stated that the obligations of & nbsp; missile delivery will be filled from here 2025 & nbsp; year.
According to & nbsp; the opinion of the former chief of navy main staff in & nbsp; 1992-1996 & nbsp; years. Admiral Valentin Selivanov, judging by the & nbsp; reports, Zircon's tests are quite successful. Likely, the missile will be adopted for weaponry within the stated timeframe.
“ The combat capabilities of surface ships armed with hypersonic missiles will increase several times. A salvo of cruise missiles of the & bdquo; Zircon & ldquo; even an aircraft carrier strike group will not be able to repel it. In addition, the new weapons will also allow strikes against important land targets: headquarters, airfields and important communication centers in coastal areas & # 39; & # 39 ;, & mdash; said the admiral.
An old Indian summer will arrive in central Russia this week (October 4-10). This was announced on his Instagram by a prominent employee of the Phobos Weather Center. Evgeny Tishkovets.
“It will be a full season, called the old Indian summer with a characteristic true golden autumn”, “ndash; written by the forecaster. & nbsp; & nbsp;
< h2> What is Old Indian Summer?
Old Indian Summer & ndash; This is an unofficial term Tishkovets used to refer to a period of temporary warming in autumn , by analogy with the Indian summer. & nbsp;
People call Indian summer a long period of hot, dry weather at the start of calendar fall after rainy and rainy days. & Nbsp; According to the meteorologist, the ancient Indian summer will also be characterized by predominantly sunny and dry weather with a bottom temperature corresponding to the climatic norm of early October (in Moscow, the average daily temperature from October 1 to October 10 is + 6.9 & hellip; + 8.5 °).
Indian summer comes thanks to constant highs. & Nbsp; The old Indian summer this week, according to Tishkovets, will be established due to the dominance of the Scandinavian-born high pressure in central Russia.
What will the weather be like in the old Indian summer?
Tishkovets said that in central Russia this week the air will warm to +7 & hellip; + 12 ° during the day. At night, the temperature will tend towards zero. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday October 6-8, light frosts are possible.
The wind during the old Indian summer will be weak, with varying directions. Fog is possible in some places at night and in the morning. & Nbsp;
When will the old Indian summer end?
The old Indian summer will last for a week, until the end of the first decade of October. Then, as the meteorologist notes, the cyclone activity will gradually intensify. Due to this, the weather will become cloudier, the probability of precipitation will increase, and the temperature will begin to drop rapidly. As October 20 approaches, the first wet snow is not excluded.
The crew of the nuclear submarine missile cruiser Severodvinsk has successfully completed the second test launch of the Zircon hypersonic cruise missile, reports the Russian Ministry of Defense.
The second test shot of Zircon; produced by the crew of the nuclear submarine “ Severodvinsk '' for the first time from a submerged position, at a depth of 40 meters. The launch took place in the White Sea on a conditional maritime target in the Barents Sea.
It should be noted that the flight of the missile was perfectly within the specified parameters.
Earlier it was reported that the Russian Navy first tested the 'Zircon' missile. nuclear submarine. Zircon hypersonic cruise missile capable of reaching speeds of around Mach 9 and hitting sea and land targets at a distance of over 1000 km.
At the end of September, it was reported that the Zircon flight design tests were complete. of the frigate Admiral Gorshkov. In the summer, the same ship successfully fired a hypersonic missile at a ground target located on the Barents Sea coast. & Nbsp;
