Le Thanh Ton Street, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City is deserted because of the implementation of social distancing. (Photo: Thanh Vu/VNA) Currently, Ho Chi Minh City has many outbreaks of unknown origin in the community and from there spreading to many people, so it is necessary to accelerate the screening and wide-ranging work to end the infection chains. This is the direction of Mr. Nguyen Thanh Phong, Chairman of the People’s Committee of Ho Chi Minh City at the meeting of the city’s Steering Committee for Epidemic Prevention and Control on the afternoon of June 15. Reporting at the meeting, Mr. Nguyen Tan Binh, Director of Ho Chi Minh City’s Department of Health, said that on June 15, the city recorded 90 cases of COVID-19. Up to now, Ho Chi Minh City has 1,252 cases of COVID-19 in the community with many outbreaks with wide spread such as the outbreak of the Phuc Hung mission group with 476 positive cases for SARS-CoV-2; Outbreak Hoc Mon Mechanical Workshop has 51 positive cases; Ehome 3 apartment outbreak has a total of 59 positive cases; Outbreak Road 11 (Hiep Binh Phuoc ward, Thu Duc city) has 8 positive cases; Outbreaks in Tan Thoi 2 and Tan Thoi Hiep 3 hamlets (Tan Hiep commune, Hoc Mon district) have 32 positive cases; Kim Minh company outbreak (Ward 13, District 5) has 27 positive cases; Outbreak Tan Phu District Hospital has 14 positive cases; Outbreak of Xuyen A Hospital has 22 positive cases… The director of the Department of Health is concerned about the outbreak at the Hospital for Tropical Diseases because the number of cases has reached 67, of which 60 are medical staff and 7 cases are family members of these staff. . Besides, more and more cases appear in companies and industrial zones in recent days. Concerned about the situation of many new infection chains appearing in the community, Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee Nguyen Thanh Phong acknowledged that new outbreaks appear according to a common formula of hospital screening. detecting cases, then screening and tracing at living quarters and workplaces again discovered new cases. “There are more and more new cases with unknown sources of infection, so for infection chains with unknown sources of infection, it is necessary to focus on screening, testing and testing on a large scale because if not blocked, the epidemic will spread. to the community,” Mr. Nguyen Thanh Phong expressed concern. Chairman of the People’s Committee Nguyen Thanh Phong directed, in the immediate future, the health sector must carefully screen risk groups in hospitals; Sampling implementation extensive testing to industrial area , export processing zones from now until June 25; at the same time, monitor high-risk places including domestic and international flights, trains and ships entering Ho Chi Minh City. Mr. Nguyen Thanh Phong also suggested that departments, branches, districts of the city must be ready to prepare plans for epidemic prevention and control in a spirit of speed and determination because of the fact that there are still many cases of negligence in the public sector. epidemic prevention and control. According to the Chairman of the People’s Committee of Ho Chi Minh City, this is the time when the entire political system must try and devote all its efforts to the goal of epidemic prevention and control, ensuring the safety and health of the people. Only in this way can we shorten the time of social distancing and bring life back to a new normal.

In terms of aesthetics, Bian Xiao personally believes that vitality and girlishness have become one of the recognized beauties.

It used to be more feminine and more attractive. The perception of men has gradually changed from a well-defined facial features to a refined facial features.

However, Bian Xiao found that men who can support this style are generally beautiful, not to mention the stars.

An inch made Zhu Yilong’s overall temperament neat, highlighting his facial features.

You look at his facial features really exquisite like this. The eyes are big and affectionate. In short, they are handsome! Then the whole person feels like Tony Leung!

Hair has a great decorative effect on a person’s appearance. With more bangs and more shapes, the whole person will change a lot.

Bian Xiao thinks that the shape of the inch head is very simple, so it emphasizes the appearance of the whole person. Cuntou looks at the star’s facial features and temperament, so the handsome guy who can tolerate the cinch is really handsome!

Li Xi’an’s cun is also very beautiful! Li Xi’an is tall, and his appearance is the correct type. With the blessing of an inch, his “hard” temperament is more obvious, giving people a very open and handsome feeling.

All stages from drawing up the design to processing are done by team members. Even, just doing it, team members also consult the community. The chamber is 1.2 m long, 2.4 m wide and 2.65 m high, enough for four medical staff to work together. Not only has the effect of cooling, this chamber also acts as a shield to protect medical staff when there is an air purification system and UV sterilization. The lights will be on for 8 minutes before the medical staff come to work. The cost to complete this product is both supported by team members and contributed by units and benefactors such as glass doors, air conditioners, germicidal lamps, etc. Mr. Khieu Huu Nghia – the group’s representative shared, when he and the whole group embarked on the implementation of this chamber, there were also many different opinions. Once completed, the sampling chamber will be moved to an isolation area in Bac Giang. After the medical staff use and give feedback, the team will proceed to further improve the details and features of the products. Besides Mr. Nghia’s group, in the past few days, another group of volunteers, former students of Thai Binh High School for the Gifted, are also providing training for the production of “experimental sampling cabins”. These are movable chamber models, which can be transported in different terrains. Each of these cabins will have 2 doctors sitting to take samples, measuring 1m long, 1m wide, 2m high, with air conditioning installed. Due to the advantages of available materials, these “test cabins” can be produced quickly and at low cost. The group plans to donate these cabins to the Hanoi CDC and Bac Giang epidemic center. Should be in the community In South Korea, this mobile testing booth was installed in March 2020, looks like a public phone booth. Each chamber is about 1m wide, about 2.5m high and weighs 230kg, with a medical staff working… This idea is considered very effective. Korean press, newspaper Korea Herald It is also reported that this mobile test chamber is being used in many places in Korea and countries such as Malaysia, Thailand, Japan, Italy and the Philippines. In the hot days of early June, when doctors and medical staff had to cope with the weather and overwork, many people thought of the idea of ​​making this laboratory in Vietnam. The social network even strongly shared the image of Korea’s “Covid-19 testing cabin” in which medical staff took samples without wearing hot protective gear, quite comfortably taking samples for Covid-19 testing for patients. citizen. The reason this image has been shared a lot is because of the recent hot sunny days, the image of medical staff wearing tight protective gear, exhausted from taking samples in the hot sun makes the community feel sorry and wish. There are solutions to help them out. On the morning of June 4, discuss with PV Infonet , Deputy Minister of Health Nguyen Truong Son said, “During very severe weather like the past time, the outdoor temperature to 39-40 degrees Celsius has greatly affected the health of medical staff, students, and health workers. employees working directly in the community. This is a great concern of the Standing Department.” Deputy Minister Nguyen Truong Son said that in Bac Giang, there was a plan to fix it by installing army field tents with an area of ​​​​12m2, with 4 windows, and an air conditioner inside. 4 medical staff taking samples still wearing protective gear stood out to take samples. In the context and conditions of Vietnam, Deputy Minister Nguyen Truong Son said that ‘the job of sampling cabins should only be done in the community. And at key points, if it is necessary to take samples at noon, on hot sunny days, there are tents.”

On April 15th, Great Wall Motor conducted an online real-life test of the Lemon Hybrid DHT, and this was the first time it was tested on a real car. The tested model was the WEY Macchiato that will be unveiled at the Shanghai Auto Show. However, if you think that this is just a test for the purpose of saving fuel, you are quite wrong. In fact, the biggest advantage of the lemon hybrid DHT covers four words: “fast, smooth, quiet, and province”. There is a corresponding technical paving behind each word. So can actual driving really be done? here we come to find out. What is the sense of pushing back under the word “fast”? In the acceleration test representing the word “fast”, the experience of sitting in the co-pilot, I love placing a balloon between the back and the seat. When the test-driving car is cruising steadily, the balloon stays still, and when the test-driving car accelerates rapidly, the balloon is instantly squeezed. This is due to the strong “back force”, which shows the acceleration performance of the lemon hybrid DHT. It’s outstanding. The Lemon Hybrid DHT consists of a high-efficiency hybrid dedicated engine, a highly integrated dual-motor hybrid gearbox, and a 135kW three-in-one two-speed electric drive rear axle, forming a powerful three-engine/four-engine power system, bringing super power. The HEV two-wheel drive system has a maximum power of 180kW, and the PHEV two-wheel drive system has a total power of 240kW, which is superior to the same level. The PHEV+P4 structure front and rear axle motors can output power at the same time, and the maximum total system power can reach 320kW. The intelligent four-wheel drive system of this architecture has a strong climbing ability, such as 60%-65% maximum climbing degree when dry asphalt pavement, and 15%-18% maximum climbing degree when in snow. Huang Zhenyang, head of the development of Lemon Hybrid DHT, introduced in detail: “In the initial stage, electric drive is used. Compared with the engine, the motor can release the maximum torque at the moment of starting. There is no traditional gearbox and the transmission efficiency is very high. Therefore, the vehicle responds. It is very fast and has a strong sense of pushing back. When it comes to medium and high speed road conditions, the system adopts engine direct drive. If a power request is received, it can achieve an effect similar to a downshift of a fuel vehicle. Not only does it switch from economic gear to power gear, but also Motors can participate in the output and form a parallel mode, so that the acceleration ability can be improved to a higher level.” How do you feel about driving and riding under the word “Shun”? In the test representing the word “Shun”, two cups were placed on the sunroof of the test-driving car and filled with a certain amount of juice. A series of operations such as starting, accelerating, decelerating, etc. of the test-driving car in the field will involve switching between oil and electricity and energy recovery. Observe whether the water cup will fall and the shaking of the juice. Through the real-time video captured by the GoPro on the roof of the car, it can be seen that the juice in the water glass does not even shake significantly, and it is very stable. When the final test is completed, the water glass is still in its original position. Experiencers said that its ride comfort is comparable to that of high-speed trains, and there is no feeling of frustration, turbulence, or drag while sitting in the car. If you do not watch the energy flow of the central control screen, you can hardly feel the switch between gasoline and electricity. Huang Zhenyang said, “The reason why the lemon hybrid DHT is excellent in terms of ride comfort is that it has a set of modes and energy management and torque control strategies with completely independent intellectual property rights, including intelligent switching between series and direct drive modes, and shifting without power interruption. , Intelligent clutch control, motor torque compensation matching and IGBT junction temperature estimation, etc.”. And because of this, the test drive can be “silky smooth” in the process of acceleration, fuel-electricity switching, and energy recovery. Not only does the water glass not fall, but more importantly, it improves the comfort of the drivers and passengers in the car. From a technical point of view, the current hybrid market has several hybrid strategy products such as power split (motor speed regulation, speed coupling), single-speed hybrid (rigid coupling), series range extension, and oil-electric split. Lemon hybrid DHT It is a two-speed hybrid. Among them, the first three representative products all emphasize the economic performance of the system, but the power split and single-speed hybrid strategy are insufficient in dynamics. The power performance of the series-extended range depends entirely on the motor power. The lemon hybrid DHT has more direct-drive gears and more complex control strategies, both in terms of performance and economy. Therefore, a balance between performance and efficiency is formed. The power split hybrid is biased toward engine-driven vehicles, and the electric motor is more assisted, assisted during acceleration, assisted during starting, and so on. Single-speed hybrid is a hybrid system that is close to a pure electric drive mode, so it is closer to an upgraded range-extended hybrid system. The lemon hybrid DHT combines the advantages of pure electricity and hybrid through a complex control strategy, so that the system will always remain in the high efficiency range under the premise of smooth and strong. Two worlds inside and outside the car under the word “Jing”? In the NVH test which represents the word “quiet”, a speaker is placed in the test drive site, music is played on the spot, a noisy environment is simulated, and environmental data is recorded with a decibel meter. The test-driving car made a circle around the audio, and at the same time, the data in the car was recorded with a decibel meter. In the case of more than 90dB outside the car, the members in the car talk and communicate normally and keep floating in the range of 50-70dB. The overall performance is excellent, which can create a pure electric driving experience for users. The experiencer said, “There are some hybrid models that shake significantly when the engine is started, and there are obvious noises when the motor is working. But today’s experience left a deep impression on me. The above situation is hardly noticeable. The NVH optimized Very in place.” It is understood that for NVH, the hybrid dedicated 1.5L/1.5T engine used in the Lemon Hybrid DHT has been re-optimized for its overall NVH, including jitter, noise, etc., to minimize it, combined with the high-end sound insulation of the vehicle itself. Materials and other technologies to improve NVH greatly reduce the noise introduced into the car. Specifically, the HEV architecture uses a 1.8kWh battery, which increases the battery capacity by more than 30% compared to the traditional hybrid system. The PHEV architecture is equipped with the world’s largest PHEV battery with a power of 45kWh, which can be charged 80% in 30 minutes, and it also provides an 8-year/150,000 km long warranty. Based on this, users can use pure electric drive in more scenarios, and can also fully reduce the number of engine starts and stops, reduce startup energy consumption, and greatly improve NVH performance. What’s more worth mentioning is that by further optimizing the connection between oil and electricity, it is guaranteed to be more “insensitive” during power switching, bringing ultimate comfort. How about the actual measurement results of fuel consumption under the word “province”? In the last fuel consumption test representing the word “province”, the mileage and fuel consumption data of the test-driving car were reset to zero, and it was in a power feeding state. The 5km actual test was carried out on the test site, including starting, accelerating, braking, turning, etc. The average speed is 15km/h, and the final apparent fuel consumption is 5.1L/100km. In-car experiencers said, “The average speed is 15km/h. Such a scenario is the weakness of fuel vehicles, and the fuel consumption of 5.1L/100km is an unattainable figure. Thanks to the blessing of the hybrid, the Lemon Hybrid DHT has achieved it. This kind of performance is remarkable, and it has obvious advantages compared with the fuel consumption of 8-9L per hundred kilometers of many similar fuel products. Specifically, the Lemon Hybrid DHT is equipped with a high-efficiency hybrid dedicated engine and TM (drive motor)/GM (generator) dual motors. The overall efficiency of the power system exceeds 50%, bringing optimal economy in the full speed range and all scenarios. , And carry out flexible power distribution for different roads. Its core working principle is to always make the engine work at the highest efficiency point, or to maximize the efficiency of the engine, so as to achieve the best overall efficiency. The working mode of “Lemon Hybrid DHT” is divided into the following points: EV mode energy flow In the EV working mode, the TM motor can directly drive the wheels, keeping the engine in the high efficiency area at all times, and maximizing the power performance. Series mode energy flow The series mode is suitable for urban driving conditions. The engine drives the GM to generate electricity, and the TM motor directly drives the wheels. In the series hybrid mode, the fuel saving rate can reach 35%-50%. Parallel mode energy flow High-speed driving conditions are more suitable for parallel mode. It is driven by the engine to directly drive the wheels. The GM motor and TM motor are responsible for adjusting the engine operating point and auxiliary driving the wheels. This direct drive operating point of the engine directly falls in the high-efficiency area, and the fuel consumption is lower. The series mode can be reduced by 10%~15%. “In low-speed road conditions, the pure electric or series mode is used to directly drive the wheels through the motor to avoid the problem of low engine efficiency. At medium and high-speed road conditions, switch to engine direct drive, which can save 10% compared to the series mode- 15%.” Huang Zhenyang said: “And the direct drive of the engine has economic gear and power gear. The economic gear is used in steady-state cruise. The power gear is switched when accelerating, and the output is assisted by the motor to avoid the transient load of the engine. The perfect balance between power and fuel consumption.” to sum up: Through the above test, we can see that the lemon hybrid DHT technology has perfectly combined comfortable driving experience with strong power output, bringing users the most perfect driving experience in a variety of scenarios. However, from a deeper perspective, the lemon hybrid DHT is a brand new hybrid technology that Great Wall Motors breaks the technology monopoly of joint venture brands and is completely independent of design, research and development, and has completely independent intellectual property rights. It also represents Great Wall Motors’ compliance with the national low-carbon environmental protection strategy and entry into the hybrid technology. The determination and strength of the market. It is believed that with its excellent technical standards, Great Wall Motors Lemon Hybrid DHT will surely become a leader in the hybrid market and contribute an indelible important force to the development of China’s hybrid technology. As the Shanghai Auto Show is about to open, users can also taste the first WEY Macchiato equipped with the lemon hybrid DHT hybrid technology at close range, and further experience the outstanding charm of the lemon hybrid DHT.

The dry blood test could mark a new era in anti-doping efforts, thereby helping to increase the number of tests for athletes. Witold Banka also said that the above testing measure has the potential to have a significant positive impact on athletes, anti-doping organizations and could be a turning point in efforts to prevent this form of abuse. this fraud. WADA announced that the new method will be tested at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, which are about to take place in Japan this summer. Meanwhile, the testers hope the technique will be used regularly at the Winter Olympics and Paralympics in Beijing (China) in February 2022. According to WADA, dry blood testing allows for better analysis of unstable compounds and makes it easier to test athletes in remote areas of the world where traditional blood samples are often difficult to transport. should be easier. With logistical and cost advantages, the dry blood test will allow agencies to test more athletes and collect more samples. Olivier Rabin, WADA’s head of science, says the cost of taking a dry blood sample is also lower than with conventional methods.

Vice Chairman of the Provincial People’s Committee Doan Tan Buu, leaders of the Department of Health, CDC Dong Thap visited the testing process at CDC Dong Thap. (Photo: dongthap.gov.vn) Accordingly, the Director of the Pasteur Institute in Ho Chi Minh City under the Ministry of Health issued a decision to recognize the ability to confirm the SARS-CoV-2 virus by Realtime PCR (RT-PCR) for the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Disease Control Department (Dong Thap CDC) and Dong Thap General Hospital. The laboratory for diagnosing SARS-CoV-2 by RT-PCR at these 2 units meets the biosafety standards level 2, facilities, equipment and human resources meet the standards prescribed by the Ministry of Health. Medical. To increase reliability, Dong Thap CDC and Dong Thap General Hospital performed a PCR test to diagnose COVID-19 (62 samples from Dong Thap CDC, 20 samples from Dong Thap General Hospital). As a result, 100% of the samples tested by the two units gave similar results to the Pasteur Institute in Ho Chi Minh City. In terms of testing capacity, on average, Dong Thap CDC and Dong Thap General Hospital are capable of testing from 250-300 samples/machine per day. In urgent conditions, the demand for testing is high, can be equipped with an automatic extractor to increase testing capacity. Previously, CDC Dong Thap only performed a screening test for SARS-CoV-2, if a positive case was suspected, the sample had to be transferred to the Pasteur Institute in Ho Chi Minh City for confirmatory testing. Comrade Doan Tan Buu – Vice Chairman of the Provincial People’s Committee emphasized that being recognized as having sufficient testing capacity to confirm the SARS-CoV-2 virus not only affirms the professional capacity of the 2 units, and meets the time schedule. time to identify COVID-19 cases, reducing dependence on upline. This is very important in helping Dong Thap proactively implement measures to trace, monitor, isolate as well as implement synchronous measures to prevent the COVID-19 epidemic.

In our testing, the iPhone 12 was the fastest app-loading iPhone in most cases, followed by the iPhone XR. The iPhone 11 is an end-to-end regular model. When Nick Ackerman opened Mortal Kombat, a heavy mobile game app, the iPhone XR suddenly opened the app faster than the iPhone 11 and iPhone 12. Photo: Nick Ackerman According to Geekbench scores, iPhone 11 scores the worst. Specifically, the iPhone 11 has a single-core score of 794 points, while the numbers of the iPhone XR and iPhone 12 are 1,103 and 1,478 respectively. In the multi-core test, iPhone 12 suddenly rose to the top position with 2,435 points. The iPhone 12 score was 2,339, while the iPhone 11 was only 1,271. Photo: Nick Ackerman According to iDropNews, there could be many reasons for this. Since iOS 14.5.1 has only just been released, it is likely that there are still minor flaws that affect the performance of the iPhone 11 and 12, while having a positive effect on the iPhone XR.

Proactive technology In Vietnam, since 2018, many localities have demonstrated the use of MBKNL in fertilizing and spraying pesticides for agricultural production. However, the results of using MBKNL in the field lack the stability, the accuracy of the equipment is not as expected, especially in the context that the current pesticides are mainly used for traditional spraying equipment, with the amount of mixed water many times higher … Facing this situation, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and the Ministry of Defense assigned the National Center for Agricultural Promotion (NNNN) to co-ordinate with the Plant Protection Institute, Hoa Lac High Tech Research and Application Institute and its management unit. The Ministry of Defense carried out the task of “Completing the technical process of using unmanned aircraft (UAV) – HLD18 spraying pesticides on rice plants”. Close-up of the HLD18 drone and the field of Truc Hung commune (Truc Ninh, Nam Dinh) – where the demonstration of aircraft spraying pesticides.

But now with this aircraft, we no longer have the trouble of spraying pesticides, the productivity is significantly increased.” . Farmer Nguyen Van Phong (Truc Hung commune, Truc Ninh district, Nam Dinh) Mr. Le Quoc Thanh – Director of VNA, said that this device is made in Vietnam, so we have complete mastery of technology, software, hardware and warranty, training “pilot” to transfer to units, cooperation groups, agricultural services … Especially HLD18 equipment ensures security and defense as well as the issue of licensing flight zones for equipment. To evaluate the results of the trial using MBKNL HLD18 to spray pesticides on rice plants, VNA recently held a demonstration conference on using MBKNL HLD18 in Truc Ninh district, Nam Dinh province. In the experimental field, the participants and farmers witnessed the “pilots” in the flight control technology demonstration service group HLD18 spraying pesticides with different flight speeds at different formulas. Experimental results show that using HLD18 aircraft helps to reduce 5% of the input pesticide, and 5-10% of water. The use of airplanes helps to control rice diseases effectively by quickly suppressing epidemics and saves time for pest management, and at the same time reduces rice yield loss by 1-2% / ha compared to spraying pine usually because rice is not trampled during the spraying process. The amount of pesticides sprayed by MBKNL on the soil and water at the initial stage of rice plant development has not changed compared with the traditional method. However, to a later period, the amount of pesticides on rice plants is higher due to the decrease of spraying in the environment. The working capacity of an aircraft HLD 18 ranges from 10-20ha / day. Replication At the seminar, Mr. Le Quoc Thanh – Director of NTPPR shared: “From practice, the biggest effect of the model is to isolate farmers from pesticides, thereby helping to protect people’s health and The machine helps to increase working efficiency, not to be afraid of the terrain, save water and drugs, and increase production efficiency “. Farmers and delegates visited the rice growing model using HLD18 drones in Truc Hung commune (Truc Ninh, Nam Dinh) Also at the conference, VNA awarded certificates to 18 trainees trained to control MBKNL HLD18. In addition to the above advantages, through the specialized agency model, the operator is also trained to use MBKNL equipment to serve farmers. The initial achieved results will serve as the basis for Nam Dinh province in particular and the Red River delta provinces to organize the replication, contributing to increase the rate of technology use in the field. As a unit with more than 700ha of area for cultivating hybrid rice varieties, Mr. Lam Van Chieu – Deputy Director of Cuong Tan Co., Ltd. (Truc Ninh, Nam Dinh) said, Cuong Tan is the coordinator of the project NN- 08II. In the process of implementing the project, the company sent staff to participate in the control engineering class MBKNL HLD18. “After more than 10 school days, trainees have been practicing directly on the rice fields of Cuong Tan Co., Ltd. and up to now, it can be said that the basic techniques of controlling MBKNL HLD18 to spray pesticides have been proficient “- Mr. Chieu shared. Also at the conference, TTKNQG handed over to Hai Duong Agricultural Extension Center and Cuong Tan Co., Ltd., each unit 3 MBKNL HLD18 for application of pesticide spraying in rice production. Ms. Pham Thi Dao – Director of Hai Duong Agricultural Extension Center said, Hai Duong currently has about 115,000 hectares of rice cultivation. The average rice yield is 745,000 tons / year. With the handover of HLD18 aircraft by VNA, this will be an incentive for farmers to be able to efficiently produce rice, reduce labor, limit exposure to pesticides while ensuring productivity.

Area planted with genetically modified maize in Tho Hai commune (Tho Xuan). Accordingly, units under the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development have planted some genetically modified maize varieties, such as: DK 6818S, NK 4300BT / GT, NK 7328BT / GT, DK 9955S, NK4300Bt / Gt. , DK6919S … in some localities in the province. The actual assessment shows that the genetically modified maize varieties are highly resistant to pests and diseases, especially for dangerous diseases such as the autumn acacia, so the input cost is reduced by about 10 to 15%. Therefore, the yield of genetically modified maize varieties was 15 to 20 quintals / ha / crop higher than conventional maize varieties and 5 to 7 million VND / ha / crop higher than conventional maize varieties. Due to the proof of economic efficiency, the suitability of farming conditions and qualifications of many localities in the province, in recent years, the agricultural sector and local authorities in the province have encouraged her to Farmers put genetically modified maize varieties into production. Therefore, the model of genetically modified maize is increasingly being replicated, the area planted to genetically modified maize has been expanded according to each production season. In the summer-autumn crop of 2019, Tho Xuan District Agricultural Extension Center (now the Agricultural Service Center of Tho Xuan district) cooperates with DEKALB Co., Ltd. to implement a demonstration model of 2 genetically modified hybrid maize varieties 6919S and DK 9955S, in Tho Hai commune, with 2 sao. These are considered to be 2 genetically modified maize varieties with high yield and superior resistance to the autumn acacia worms. Accordingly, the company has put 2 genetically modified maize varieties: 6919S and DK 9955S into cultivation on the maize land area of ​​Tho Hai commune for trial planting. The actual evaluation from the model shows that, on 2 control maize fields planted adjacent to each other, the maize cultivating area is often destroyed by the autumn acacia worm, affecting the growth, development and yield. However, the planted area of ​​2 genetically modified maize varieties 6919S and DK 9955S still grows and develops well, the rate of damage caused by the autumn acacia and some other pests is low, almost does not affect the quality and productivity. According to calculations of the households implementing the model, the area of ​​genetically modified maize yield from 78 to 80 quintals / ha / crop, about 16 quintals / ha / crop higher than conventional maize varieties, the profit is from 27 to 33 million VND / ha / crop, about 7 million VND / ha / crop higher than the area planted with conventional maize varieties. At the end of the model, many households in Tho Hai commune boldly use genetically modified maize varieties for mass cultivation. On average, each year, the whole commune has about 100 ha of maize planted with genetically modified maize varieties. Particularly in the winter-spring crop 2020-2021, the whole commune has more than 30 hectares of maize planted with genetically modified maize varieties. In Yen Dinh district, genetically modified maize varieties, such as NK4300Bt / Gt, DK6919S, NK7328Bt / Gt, and DK6818S are also being widely cultivated by farmers in many lands. Each year, the district has nearly 1,000 ha of maize planted with genetically modified maize varieties and it is expected that the area of ​​using genetically modified maize varieties for cultivation will be expanded in the next seasons. According to Mr. Trinh Xuan Quy, Head of Agriculture and Rural Development Division, People’s Committee of Yen Dinh district, said: The reason for the rapid expansion of genetically modified marine maize area is because the use of genetically modified maize varieties helps to reduce labor, investment costs and amount of pesticides, thereby, reducing environmental pollution, improving farmers’ income, increasing economic efficiency from 15 to 20% compared to production of ordinary maize. From the benefits brought, Yen Dinh district is continuing to encourage farmers to use genetically modified maize varieties for planting, improving economic efficiency. According to the synthesis of the Provincial Plant Protection and Cultivation Department, the presence of genetically modified maize has been expanded in many districts, such as Cam Thuy, Yen Dinh, Tho Xuan, Ngoc Lac, Vinh Loc, Thieu Hoa, Trieu Son, with a total area of ​​more than 3,000 hectares per year. Most of the area planted to genetically modified maize achieves 20-30% higher economic efficiency than conventional maize varieties. More importantly, the genetically modified maize varieties are highly resistant to pests and diseases, so the amount of pesticide use in the production process is low, significantly contributing to environmental protection, ensuring safety. whole food for product

WhatsApp is testing a Beta feature to speed up the playback of voice messages After a short activation, WhatsApp released a new version of Android beta 2.21.9.5 to disable this feature. This is arguably another surprise, because WhatsApp typically tests features for a few months before rolling out to public beta testers. This could be a buggy update from WhatsApp and has been quickly fixed. The interface for this version of WhatsApp has also been changed to better accommodate the new features. An icon appears right next to the voice message to perform accelerated operations that the user wants to hear again. In addition to playback acceleration, another feature also tested by WhatsApp is the ability to delete or make changes to a chat on just one active device without affecting any linked devices other. That is, changes or deletion of any chats through one handset will not be deleted from other linked devices. This is quite confusing because often performing a delete or change operation means that the content the user will not want to save on any device. If this feature is kept by WhatsApp, users will have to delete the chats multiple times on multiple devices. This feature is in line with what WhatsApp introduced previously, which is that each account can be importing up to 4 devices at the same time. However, the log out of all these devices is said to be in development, users still have to go to each device to remove the WhatsApp account. The new features that WhatsApp has introduced well for users to try out may see that it may be coming to many people soon.

China’s test network connects 40 top universities in preparation for a society powered by artificial intelligence (Image: Shutterstock) Located at Tsinghua University, “Future Internet Technology Base” connects 40 universities, the country’s leading research institute with much lower bandwidth and latency than the current Internet. ; According to the Xinhua state news agency. This facility will serve as the “backbone” for the China Network Innovation Environment (CENI) – a research facility linking the largest cities in China – to confirm the effectiveness and safety of the public. network technology in the future before bringing it into commercial use. When completed in 2023, the CENI facility will become a prototype of the “Internet of the Future”, connecting almost everything – from home computers to cars on the street – to serve information without compromise. disruption in a society powered by artificial intelligence (AI). “We will put a lot of effort into it. The Internet of the future needs to withstand all kinds of attacks. It is important to our national security, ”an anonymous computer scientist who was involved in the project at Tsinghua University told SCMP. China’s current Internet is built with Western technology and is full of backdoors. The US government’s Prism project, for example, took advantage of these weaknesses to penetrate the Chinese government and some of its research institutes, including Tsinghua; according to “whistleblower” Edward Snowden. Following Snowden’s revelation, the Beijing government has stepped up efforts to replace Western hardware in its information infrastructures. In recent years, a number of Chinese telecom companies, including Huawei Technologies Co., have outperformed Western firms in 5G network development and many other technologies. But their lead is limited to certain areas, while foreign software and protocols still prevail in the Chinese network. The US government has also launched a multitude of test networks, including the Global Network Innovation Environment (GENI) to maintain their leadership position in networking technology. Other players – such as the EU, Japan and South Korea – have also started similar projects. According to Tan Hang, the lead scientist working on the CENI project, the construction of the Chinese test network began in 2019. China’s base is to counter the US GENI program, with completely different technology. For example, China will develop a brand new operating system to manage data flow and “conversation”. between devices on the future Internet network, with the support of domestically produced hardware – from routers, servers to computer chips…, according to Mr. Tan. This 1.7 billion yuan ($ 260 million) network base will “enhance our country’s competitiveness and allow us to gain an edge in the international cyber competition,” said Mr. Tan. more. China has now embarked on building the world’s largest 5G network, and in the foreseeable future, a large number of smart devices – including self-driving cars – will connect to the Internet. These devices can produce and request huge amounts of data, while allowing only minimal communication delay and each device needs a unique ID. According to Mr. Tan, the current Internet base, based on military technology from the 1980s, is not strong enough to meet future requirements. And the more things connected to the Internet, the greater the damage caused by a network attack. New security protocols developed by Chinese researchers to locate and identify any device in the future network will be tested in the CENI network; according to Mr. Tan. The CENI network “will support attack and defense training” by allowing more than 4,000 teams across the country to conduct separate experiments at the same time; he said. Of course, China’s network will not be isolated, but will connect to existing Internet networks, as well as test networks in other countries, including the Future Internet Research and Test Network (FIRE) of Europe; according to the EU.

Currently, 2 tunneling machines have completed the test and commissioning. Auxiliary works such as installation of air compressor station, water supply station, mortar mixing station, ventilation will be completed in the end of April.

In order to officially put into operation, the Hanoi Urban Railway Management Board has cooperated closely with the consultant, contractors and related parties to ensure the quality of tunneling machines and related work. assessment before construction.

It is known that, compared to conventional tunneling methods, TBM drilling method is said to minimize the impact of traffic, occupy less area or affect surrounding constructions. Because soil can be collected and transported after excavation, this method causes less dust, vibration and noise compared to other tunneling methods. This construction method is environmentally friendly.

There is an agreement in the coalition to oblige companies to offer a quick test for face-to-face employees in the company. The SPD chairmen Saskia Esken and Norbert Walter-Borjans announced after a meeting of the presidium that this will now be initiated by the federal government in the cabinet meeting. The SPD assumes that the federal cabinet as a whole will both adopt stricter corona rules through federal law and approve an ordinance on the obligation to test offers in companies. Esken and co-party leader Walter-Borjans announced that the cabinet would take note of an ordinance from Labor Minister Hubertus Heil, with which mandatory test offers would be established in companies. This was discussed with the federal states and parliamentary groups, and the federal cabinet was also “in agreement on these objectives,” said Esken.

Usage does not have to be documented

The draft of the Ministerial Ordinance is based on the ARD capital studio in front. There should therefore not be any obligation to test for employees. It is only about the test offer obligation for companies. Companies also do not have to document whether the employees actually use the tests. And: Companies that have been badly hit by the Corona crisis can count the expenses for the tests as a cost item for the bridging aid. First of all, every employee should receive one test per week. If you have a lot of contacts, you should get two tests. All in all, the regulation is not as strict as many business associations fear. And yet there is criticism, for example from the employers’ association BDA. Managing Director Steffen Kampeter criticizes: The obligation to test leads to more bureaucracy and discredits the voluntary commitment of companies. It is of little consolation if the test bureaucracy that has now been introduced does not implement all of the proposed measures.

Stricter rules, more childhood sick days

The ministerial coordination is currently ongoing, tomorrow the federal cabinet is expected to approve the measure. According to the SPD boss Esken, the generally stricter corona rules that are also to be decided include a binding emergency brake, according to which “all openings must be withdrawn” if the infection value exceeds 100. There are “exit restrictions to be provided”. It was also agreed to increase the number of days paid for children’s illnesses per parent from the current 20 to 30 days. With a view to resistance in the Union parliamentary group to these new regulations, Esken said: “It must now be our most important goal to protect the health of people and the employees in hospitals”. The situation in the intensive care units is particularly dramatic, said the SPD leader.

Compulsory tests should relieve the economy

In view of the negative attitude of some Union politicians to mandatory test offers in companies, Walter-Borjans warned that these politicians should also be aware that this would “avert a complete lockdown” for the economy. He also referred to ongoing discussions about extending the bridging allowances for businesses as well as in favor of downtown businesses. The SPD parliamentary group is also obviously behind the planned measures. “We support a rapid emergency brake in the Infection Protection Act, which formulates the measures precisely and bindingly,” said parliamentary group vice-president Dirk Wiese of the AFP news agency. The current inconsistencies in protective measures must be overcome. Wiese also pushed for a nationwide test obligation for employers, “because it is becoming more and more obvious that it does not work across the board without pressure”.

Advance by the Minister of Labor

With his plans for a mandatory test offer at the workplace, Federal Labor Minister Hubertus Heil had accelerated the discussion. Encouragement for the move came from the union side, among others. Reiner Hoffmann, chairman of the German trade union federation (DGB), told the newspapers of the “Funke Mediengruppe” that there had to be a test obligation for employers: “It is simply not understandable why people in the private sector have been restricting themselves to their basic rights for over a year , but the rules for employers are still as smooth as butter. ” The Union and employers have so far refused to test. Economics minister Peter Altmaier recently emphasized that he relied on the voluntary nature of the companies that had agreed to expand their test offer. According to a report by “Spiegel”, the Federal Ministry of Economics is said to have given way in the meantime. It was said that one would turn around. The departmental coordination is ongoing to clarify the final details. With information from Tobias Betz, ARD capital studio
