obtain with it data about air temperature
and humidity, wind velocity and direction,
snow temperature, depth and density, dura-
tion of sunshine, physicomechanical parame-
ters of the snow cover, and time of ava-
lanche occurrence."
Special sensors are installed at hard-
to-reach high-altitude locations. The in-
formation gathered with them is transmitted
automatically via radio communication chan-
nels into the computer of the avalanche
station. All measurements are made accord-
ing to a special program, which is entered
into a personal computer. The information
is processed and transmitted by telephone
to the Tashkent Hydrometeorology Center for
subsequent analysis and compilation of
weather forecasts.
"Ruta" is a new generation of the
"TM-910 Lavina" telemetry complex. The
complex has proved itself well in the ava-
lanche service, in collecting diverse hy-
drological information and in the elimina-
tion of the consequences of the Chernobyl
accident.
The main advantage of "Ruta" is its
versatility. The system makes it possible
to conduct measurements without human par-
ticipation in difficult conditions and to
obtain information for 3,000 square kilome-
ters.

PHYSICAL-FIELD THERAPEUTIC DEVICE
DEVELOPED AT DEFENSE ENTERPRISE

Extract: Professor, Doctor of Medicine
Dzhuna (Yevgeniya Yuvashevna Davitashvili)
has been the first to report truly sensa-
tional news to our newspaper:
the U.S.
Patent Office has issued her Document No.
5095901 registering a stimulator which
bears her name
"The human biofield is a combination
of infrared, microwave and electrostatic
fields, " Dzhuna explained. "At a Moscow
defense enterprise, a device which emits
specifically the fields that are character-
istic for man was developed for the first
time under my direction. Its radiating
surface was designed in the shape of a
hand. Every radiator on it is connected to
a computer, into which a specific program
has been entered. What kind [of program]?
Changes in the radiation parameters of the
fields in my hand during the treatment of
particular diseases have been measured, and
this is what became the basis of the com-
puter's 'mind. '
Thus, when the necessary
operating conditions have been specified,
the robot extrasensory will in some cases
be able to take my place."
