Russia combined. Peculiarly enough, the British had taken in more refugees than the United States. Among those who had escaped from behind the Iron Curtain were men who would die rather than renounce freedom. And now that they were on the sunny side of the Iran Curtain, many of them wandered homeless. [Pg.208]

The vendor claims that these systems may be used in soils with a wide range of porosity values and can be installed at depths from 2 to 100 m below ground surface. The IronNet and Iron Curtain are only able to treat contaminants in the saturated zone. The Iron Curtain requires that there is a natural groundwater gradient and that groundwater flows horizontally at the site. Both technologies are currently commercially available from FOREMOST Solutions, Inc. [Pg.595]

According to the vendor, approximately 120 tons of zero-valent iron filing slurry were injected at a cost of 190,000. Total project cost for design, oversight, and installation was 250,000 (D21474E, p. 6). [Pg.595]

The opening of the borders and the collapse of the old Socialist systems were responsible for dramatic changes worldwide. Globalization could begin. Besides the fall of national trade barriers, which was probably only the trigger, decisive communication barriers were removed. Advances in telecommunications, the... [Pg.43]

And yet—and yet, over all there hangs the shadow of a greater threat, the threat of war between the Soviet Union and the Western world. Men breathed more freely for a little while when Marshal Tito of Yugoslavia found the courage to declare his independence of the Kremlin, however little he may have turned into a friend of the West. But Tito s defiance may mark only his intramural perception of the weaknesses behind the Iron Curtain—weaknesses which in themselves may prove the spur to desperate adventure. [Pg.273]
