Illustration Perhaps, persimmon is a fruit that brings mixed emotions. Just tasting one fruit, I feel like I can see the taste of summer and earth suddenly coming. A little bit of spicy mixed with a bit of mild sourness and left behind is a light, numbing sweetness on the tip of the tongue. The most special is the scent of ripe persimmon. When the burden of persimmons passes on the street, it must be very clear to be able to recognize the sweet, slightly pungent fragrance carried in the wind. Red envelopes are not only a gift for our children, but also used by mothers to treat diseases. Every time it was the season of persimmon, my mother carefully separated the seeds, took the peel to dry it, and used it as a dewormer for my brothers and sisters. Once, my brother caught a cold in the rain, so he coughed a lot, my mother bought some yellow rosemary, washed and steamed it with rock sugar for him to eat. Miraculously, my brother stopped coughing immediately. When the persimmons are ripe, my mother often soaks sugar in syrup to drink. The purchased persimmons are washed with boiled water to cool and then left open. When the water was drained, my mother instructed me to use scissors to cut the stalk. My mother often told me that you shouldn’t use your hands to pick it up because it will break the persimmon fruit. The glass vase was washed and dried. My mother sprinkled persimmons in the jar, and covered it with rock sugar. Then, she tied the mouth of the jar to a cool place. When the rock sugar layer dissolves, it can be used as a yellowish water. At noon in the summer, make a glass of sweet and cool persimmon water, we slowly enjoy. Oh my, the characteristic scent of persimmons rushes to the nose, spicy but not too harsh like lemon peel, orange peel. Next is the sour, sweet and cool taste that permeates the taste buds. Interestingly, when using this beverage, we can leisurely watch and enjoy pieces of brown persimmon in a glass of golden water. Because the persimmon season suddenly comes and goes, clever housewives often make jam to save. I still remember, the years I went to school away from home, me and my friends were so happy, competing for breath, cherishing the jam that my mother sent me. We shared each piece of chewy, chewy sugar-matched jam that we missed our homeland dearly. Another season of persimmons has returned. Persimmon fruit evokes nostalgia for children far from home with fond memories. The taste of red skin awakens someone’s beautiful memories of a carefree childhood gift. And… Hanoi streets are full of evocative and evocative burdens of persimmons.

Illustration The filling of this dish is not too picky. I usually grind the shoulder meat with dried onions, then mix it with finely chopped scallions, marinate some delicious fish sauce, main noodles, and pepper. If you want to add more “taste”, we should mince a little more young leaves mixed with meat. After letting the filling soak in the spices for a while, we can wrap the patties. There is an interesting thing, both guise leaves and river bones have different color characteristics of two-sided leaves. One side is dark green, one side is lighter in color and the petiole is quite hard. When wrapping the rolls, we should turn the light green side in, and the dark green side out so that the patty has a nice color. Spread a leaf, we put the spoonful of filling just enough with the leaf and then roll it evenly. After rolling the patty, the smart housewife often takes the leaf stalk to tighten the patty so it doesn’t fall apart. Put the pan on the stove, wait for the oil to be hot, then gently put the fried rice in it. Note that you should put the part with the edge of the leaf rolled in first. Remember to fry on low heat and turn it over with your hand so that the patties are evenly cooked. When the sausage is cooked, take it out on a plate with greaseproof paper and place it on a flat plate. Lot leaves, river bones eaten with rice and vermicelli are all suitable. Pick up a piece of golden, stretchy spring rolls, dip into a bowl of fish sauce mixed with lemon pepper and chili, we slowly enjoy. The flavor of the fragrant patties brings up the taste of the guava leaves, the river bones, the soft and fatty texture of the meat… it’s a real treat. If eaten with vermicelli, the dipping sauce is as light as the bun cha dipping sauce. Some people prefer grilled basil leaves because they don’t like the characteristic scent of river bones. However, with vermicelli with fresh bamboo sticks, the river bone cake is really delicious. This is also the “attractive” dish of some bun cha restaurants in Hanoi. In addition, river bone pork rolls are also combined by housewives with rice paper soup. The bowl of rice paper soup has a completely new flavor and color when it is dropped a few pieces of pork loin leaves on top. Cha la lot, river bones are not only made with pork, mothers also create a cute variation with beef patties. To make the patties sweeter and softer, we should blend pork with beef or mix diced pork fat into the filling. After rolling cha with guise leaves, river bones, we can bake it on a charcoal stove. When the leaves turn yellow, the meat is soft, and the fat is secreted out of the patties. Remove the patties from the blister, soak in a bowl of sweet and sour dipping sauce and pickle, we enjoy with vermicelli. If eaten with rice, beef patties with guise leaves, river bones just need to be dipped with salted fish sauce sprinkled with pepper. Although it is a simple dish, it has its own special flavor. Sometimes, I ask myself, does anyone still remember the taste of the dish with guise leaves and river bones?

Image of an unidentified flying object Is that a bird? An airplane? Drones? Or something extraterrestrial? The US government has been scrutinizing these unidentified flying objects. A report summarizing what the US knows about “unidentified flying objects” – aka UFOs – is expected to be published in June. However, contrary to many people’s expectations, no “alien” will appear. Two unnamed officials briefed on the report said they had found no information about a UFO connection to extraterrestrials. According to the two officials, the report does not rule out a link between the flying objects and another country. Prior to that, because of concerns about the threat to national security, congressmen pushed for investigation and public reporting of mysterious phenomena that the US government did not want to talk about for generations. At the request of Congress, the Director of National Intelligence is required to submit a consolidated report from multiple agencies within 180 days. This deadline is coming to an end. However, the intelligence office did not specify when the report was released. Republican Senator Marco Rubio (Florida), one of the senators pushing for the investigation, told Fox News : “These are flying in our airspace. We don’t know what it is. We need to find out.” “There are a lot of unanswered questions right now,” Democratic Representative Adam Schiff (California) said NBC . “If other countries have certain devices that we don’t know about, we’d love to find out. Or if there is some other explanation, we would also like to know.” Luis Elizondo, former head of the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, said he does not believe the unidentified objects are the technological product of a foreign power, in part. because almost no country can keep this kind of secret. “We live in an incredible universe,” says Elizondo. There are many theories that the three-dimensional universe – where we live – has many things that cannot be explained.” But Michael Shermer, editor of Skeptic magazine, is skeptical. Longtime analyst of UFO theories and other phenomena, says he has seen too many blurry images of alleged encounters with aliens. However, Shermer notes that now several billion people around the world have smartphones that take sharp pictures, and satellites can accurately display every detail on the ground. “90% to 95% of UFOs detected are actually weather balloons, flares, secret military planes, birds reflecting the sun, planes reflecting sunlight, meteors, space junk , satellites, lightning balls, ice crystals reflecting light from clouds, or light reflected in the cockpit windows…” “Show me alien bodies, show me spaceships or show me really high quality videos and photos,” he said in an interview. “That’s how I believe it.” “We need proof rather than noisy videos and blurry photos. Because this would be one of the most unbelievable claims ever, if it proves aliens are real. .” Pilots and skywatchers have long reported sightings of UFOs in US airspace. These UFOs often have unusual speeds or orbits. In 1960, the CIA reported that 6,500 objects had been reported to the US Air Force over the previous 13 years. However, the air force concluded that there was no evidence that these objects were related to “interplanetary spacecraft”. Some people who research the topic say the US government often “restricts mentioning or lying about things that cannot be explained.” However, retired Air Force Colonel Richard Weaver insists that the government does not have the authority and capacity to cover up the encounter with aliens. “Even if it’s hard for us to keep it a secret, how can we build a conspiracy theory like that,” Weaver said. In December 2017, a turning point happened when New York Times revealed the Pentagon has a five-year project to investigate UFOs. The Pentagon later released a video showing military pilots confronting fuzzy objects they could not identify. In 2019, the US Navy announced it would create a formal process for its pilots to report unidentified aerial phenomena, or UAPs. Last August, the US Department of Defense established a task force, tasked with “detecting, analyzing, and cataloging UAPs” that may pose a danger to the United States. In an age of increasingly sophisticated drones, the US military’s theory leans more towards adversary equipment, rather than aliens. However, the creation of the task force is seen as a rare admission from the government that UFOs pose a national security concern.

If the stake is broken, I will leave it for you to play.” Why does the sentence “just because” sound so gentle, is there something heartless or callous here? What effect does death have on their hobby? In modern society, there is nothing more painful and terrifying than being bitten to death by a dog. But all are healthy dogs raised by owners. Raise without knowing how or unable to teach. This type of dog was bred for one-on-one combat, not as a pet. Some people use an excuse to raise a pitbull to keep their house, keep money … without noticing that sometimes they have to exchange it with blood, the lives of family members or themselves. If you only have a dog to watch and alert, there are many other options. Raising a pitbull is like keeping a gun in the house. But this type of “gun” is ready to take the trigger at any time. After a series of deadly pitbull bites, including the owner, despite being raised for a long time, raised from a baby … currently, about 39 countries have banned pitbull farming and a few other fierce dog breeds such as rottweiler, Brazilian clam, doberman, Tibetan clam, tosa Japan… Of course, crossbreeding between them is also illegal. Pitbull hybrids are said to have appeared in England since the 1800s for use in the violent recreation of bullfighting, and even bear fighting in the UK and USA. But even their homeland could not stand this breed. Since 1991, the UK has banned pitbulls after a series of unprovoked attacks on people of this breed. Between 1981 and 1991 in England and Wales, there were 15 pitbull deaths. In Vietnam, Long An is not the first place to record “rogue achievements” of pitbulls. In August 2018, the brother of a dog owner in Hanoi was bitten to death by a pitbull. In the same year, in Philadelphia – USA, a 2-year-old baby was bitten to death by 2 domestic pitbulls (there are 3 more in captivity). And in Virginia, 22-year-old Bethany Lynn Stephens was bitten to death while walking two pitbulls in the woods. When the police discovered them, they were eating the victim’s ribs… Mrs. Sandra Bowers Adams, 70 years old from Georgia was charged with murder while looking after her grandchildren but allowing pitbulls to attack… Many other cases were equally horrifying. . Pitbull is responsible for 82% of dog attack deaths in the US. Dog owners in general in Vietnam are clearly being pampered. The alleys full of dog feces in the middle of the capital are an example. There have been a few cases of people beating people to death over petty disputes around dog keeping. In June 2015, two families in District 7, Ho Chi Minh City were reported to have been described as having a “crazy fight” leading to the death of the dog owner. Reason: the dog defecated in front of someone else’s house. In March 2020, a young man stabbed a man to death and went to prison for 20 years from an argument due to being bitten on the hand by a dog. In May 2020, just because the barking dog startled two men in Dong Nai who were doing gymnastics turned to punch each other, one man died. We can see that people sometimes can’t even control the heat anymore is dogs. Therefore, besides periodic vaccinations, city people need and are forced to get used to muzzle and leash their beloved dogs. Depending on the dog breed and weight, the penalty is calculated. And it is necessary to ban the raising of some fierce dog breeds at home when we cannot have a licensing or chip-based process like other countries. In terms of infrastructure, the densely populated cities in Vietnam are also not suitable for raising large and powerful dogs. They always require a large enough space (garden) to operate, otherwise they will be stressed, becoming a potential hazard in the community. According to a newspaper report, in addition to innate evil, pitbulls in Vietnam often eat supplements or drugs to strengthen muscles and look beautiful. As a result, the dog is always excited, has an excess of energy, and is more and more ready to attack people.

Dongfang.com reporter Liu Xiaojing reported on April 22: Today, the “Shanghai Citizens’ Personal Learning Account (Study Code)” Alipay Mini Program was launched at the “14th Five-Year” Development Forum of Shanghai Lifelong Education Credit Bank, which also marks Shanghai. The era of Credit Bank 2.0 is coming.

The reporter understands that Shanghai Lifelong Education Credit Bank (hereinafter referred to as “Shanghai Credit Bank”) is a learning achievement certification management center and conversion service platform for Shanghai citizens, with the identification, accumulation and conversion of learning achievements as the main function.

As the first provincial credit bank in China, Shanghai Credit Bank has continued to research, explore and practice without a ready-made model to learn from, established a credit conversion system and mechanism, created a talent training “overpass”, and initially achieved coverage Communication and convergence of various types of education in the city.

Since its establishment in 2012, Shanghai Credit Bank has established more than 4.3 million personal learning files for 15% of the city’s permanent population, accumulated more than 85 million learning achievements of various types, and accumulated more than 100,000 credit transfers among various types of education. , The effect of serving the construction of a life-long education system and the construction of a learning society has initially appeared.

“Personal learning account” is a personal account that links personal comprehensive learning results and experience, links personal educational learning results, professional experience, and social activities, and deposits various types, stages, and levels of learning to enhance the results of personal accounts through the credit bank.

With the increasing demand of learners for mobile learning, in order to solve the bottlenecks such as the inconvenience of real-name authentication, the lack of accumulation of learning achievements, and the low user activity in the operation, Shanghai Credit Bank developed the “Study Code” Alipay Mini The program lays the foundation for an inclusive personal learning account in the future.

It is understood that the “Study Code” Alipay applet is an entrance to a personal learning account. Learners can search for “Shanghai Credit Bank” through the “Alipay” public entrance interface.

The mini program has three functions: “upload”, “scan code” and “bright certificate”: learners use the “upload” function to continuously enrich personal lifelong learning achievement information; through the “scan code” function, they can attend classes, listen to lectures, and visit venues. Checking in and clocking in and other scenes can record various learning activities in time; through personal authorization, learners can display their personal learning achievements in the form of two-dimensional codes to relevant personnel or institutions.

Next, the Shanghai Credit Bank will further connect with the Shanghai Municipal Government’s “One Internet Service” system, etc., to support the open application of educational data and make it easier for learners to inquire about learning data. Through the continuous accumulation of learners’ learning achievements, “Study Code” will gradually expand the connotation and functions of personal learning accounts, and comprehensively display personal “learning ability” and “learning credit”. Through the big data analysis of learners’ learning experience, it forms user portraits, provides learners with personalized learning consulting services, provides recruitment and human resource optimization services for enterprises and institutions, and provides data analysis and decision support services for the government.

In addition, in order to further stimulate the learning needs of learners, Shanghai Credit Bank will also rely on the “application code” to establish a lifelong learning points system for all levels of learning results, build a complete learning incentive system, and form a continuous The ecology of lifelong learning serves the construction of a learning society.
