Demonstrations broke out in northern German cities, demanding an end to energy sanctions against Russia.

　　On September 25, local time, demonstrations broke out in the northern German city of Lubuming. Thousands of people took to the streets, demanding that the German federal government quickly open the "Beixi -2" natural gas pipeline and end the energy sanctions against Russia.

　　According to the information disclosed by the local police, about 3,500 people from all over the country gathered in Lubuming, the terminal of the "Beixi -2" natural gas pipeline, to protest against the federal government’s energy policy. The slogan of the demonstrators is "Open ‘ Beixi -2’ Project — — Only in this way can our country have a future. " At the same time, the demonstrators also demanded that the German government immediately end the energy sanctions against Russia. Demonstrators pointed out that once the "Beixi -2" pipeline is put into use, Russian natural gas will flow to Germany again, and energy prices can drop rapidly. However, the German federal government has repeatedly ruled out the possibility of opening the project.

　　It is reported that this is not the first time that protests and demonstrations have broken out in Lubuming. Earlier this month, about 1800 people took part in a parade on a similar theme.

　　The "Beixi -2" natural gas pipeline was officially completed in September 2021. According to the original plan, the natural gas pipeline should be officially put into use at the end of 2021.

9AT is the highlight. Official map analysis. New Jeep Cherokee

speed up apply the brakes oil consumption second rice rise Noteworthy Next Generation Test Jeep Free Light 2.4L Evaluation Editor-Luo Hao:

The highlights of this car are mainly the styling design, off-road performance and 9AT gearbox. From the actual experience, the appearance and off-road performance are very satisfactory, especially its four-wheel drive system, which is the strongest in its class, but the performance of the power combination of 9AT gearbox and 2.4L engine is not as good as expected. This is the overall situation.

Evaluation Editor-Liang Wei:

Free light is definitely a product full of personality, and its shape design is quite avant-garde, so that it is still unacceptable to everyone after a period of listing. However, in addition to the shape design, the product itself still has many bright spots, including the advanced four-wheel drive system, which can realize three modes of automatic parking system. Of course, the key point is the 9AT gearbox that manufacturers strongly promote, but under the domestic speed limit conditions, the ninth gear may never be used.

Evaluation Editor-Hu Zhengyu:

The power of the 2.4L version is just so-so. Fortunately, the braking performance is good. The 9AT gearbox is a sincere configuration. The problem is that the 9th gear is hardly used in China. The biggest weakness is that the price is too high. Maybe JEEP wants to have a direct dialogue with BBA.

Starting from 28,900 yuan, FAW Pentium Pony pure electric mini-car opened for pre-sale： battery life of 122／170 kilometers.

FAW Pentium Pony opened for pre-sale today, with a pre-sale price of 289-34900 yuan, and the new car will be officially listed at the end of May.

The car will be equipped with 9.4 kWh, 9.98 kWh and 13.9 kWh battery packs. The summary pricing of IT House is as follows:

The design of Pentium pony is very cute. The front face is equipped with a rounded lamp group, and the high-profile models will also provide LED light sources. The body structure is a 3-door 4-seat hatchback with rounded lines. The car provides six body colors, including lime, cherry, grape, blueberry, litchi and pearl litchi, to meet the individual needs of different consumers. The body enclosure and rim cover with contrast design also add youthful and energetic elements. At present, the official has not released the body size data of Pentium pony, but it is expected that its overall size will be similar to that of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV of the same level.

The interior design of Pentium Pony is simple and practical. The center console adopts many straight lines, which helps to increase the visual width inside the car. It also adopts a flat-bottomed steering wheel, an integrated cruise/headlight combination switch, and knob shift. In terms of configuration, the official said that the Pentium pony comes standard with the main driver airbag and the front and rear seat belts to ensure the safety of riding. However, in the multimedia entertainment system, at present, there are only radio and USB music functions, but there are no functions such as navigation and reversing images. Whether these functions will be provided on other models will continue to be concerned by IT House.

In terms of power, the Pentium pony is equipped with a single motor with a maximum power of 20 kW. In terms of battery, the car will be equipped with three kinds of battery packs of 9.4 kWh, 9.98 kWh and 13.9 kWh. The pure battery life of CLTC is divided into 122 km and 170 km. The charging port is located under the central cover of the front face, and the left side of the charging port is also provided with a glass water filling port.

1. Whole Life Cycle refers to the complete cycle of a project from design, financing, construction, operation, maintenance to termination of handover.

2. Output Specification refers to the economic and technical standards that the project assets should meet after the completion of the project, as well as the delivery scope, standards and performance levels of public goods and services.

3. Value for Money, VFM) refers to the long-term maximum benefits that an organization can obtain by using its available resources. VFM evaluation is a widely used evaluation system in the world to evaluate whether the public goods and services traditionally provided by the government can use the cooperation model of government and social capital, aiming at optimizing the efficiency of public resources allocation and utilization.

Android 7.0 ＂evaluation＂! It’s so beautiful

[Where will Android 7.0 change? 】

As the two operating systems with the largest number of users at present, which one is better, Android or iOS?

Users who like iOS value its high program execution efficiency and good system fluency. At the same time, due to the uniqueness of hardware, there is basically no software compatibility problem and a large number of applications. Users who like Android take a fancy to its open source, open system and good customization. The application covers a wide range and the price is relatively cheap.

With the debate between users on both sides, iOS evolved to version 9.0.Google also officially announced recently that it will hold the 2016 I/O Developers Conference on May 18th this year, during which the most striking thing is the release of Android 7.0.

At present, there are many rumors about the new features of Android7.0. According to these rumors and the changes of previous systems, we also made a guess and launched a fake evaluation about Android7.0.

Android 7.0 "evaluation"! It's so beautiful

The vice president of Android Engineering once said in an interview with the media that Google has changed the release strategy of Android system to "Annual Cadence of Big Releases".

At last year’s GoogleI/O Developers Conference, Google brought people a new version of Android M system, in addition to Android Wear, VR and other projects. Through the naming of previous generations of systems, we can see that Google has a good preference for food names, but for the naming of new Android systems, this year seems to be different. At present, most of the guesses are Android N.

The outside world hopes that Google will strengthen security, ease of use of tablets, parallel application of multitasking, etc. At the same time, it is reported that Google is pulling into the distance between Android and Chrome OS.

Android 7.0 "evaluation"! It's so beautiful

Major system changes are usually accompanied by various bugs, so every generation of new systems will always improve the problems and missing contents of the previous version. For example, Android M has improved the power consumption of the previous Android 5.0 exposure, increased the function of managing permissions, customized the notification bar, etc. The new system has also improved in some minor aspects, and the whole system is more user-friendly. However, from the UI point of view, 6.0 has not changed, and it still uses the interface design of 5.0.

So besides the interface changes, what will Android 7.0 improve?

[Make up for the shortage of finished versions and upgrade independently to solve fragmentation]

Solve fragmentation-independent upgrade

First of all, we know that the fragmentation of Android system is very serious, and it has even reached a level that restricts the development of the system. By the end of last year, the upgrade rate of Android 6.0 has not reached 0.3% for several months after its release, which is only higher than that of Android 2.2 Froyo system, which was released in 2010, and its current share is only 0.2%.

On the contrary, the adoption rate of Apple’s iOS 9 system is 75%, and the remaining majority share is occupied by iOS 8, and the proportion of early versions is almost negligible.

Android 7.0 "evaluation"! It's so beautiful
The upgrade rate of Android6.0 has not reached 0.3% since it was released several months ago.

The main reason for this problem is that Google system upgrade cannot completely avoid manufacturers and operators. Whenever a new system is released, only Google’s own Nexus devices can get a quick upgrade. For non-Nexus devices, it will take a long time to use the new system, so Android 7.0 is likely to adopt an independent upgrade method.

At present, the upgrade function of smart APP has begun to APPear, so that users do not need to install the whole APP, but only need to install the parts that are not available in the existing version of the app, thus reducing the scale of system upgrade.

Android 7.0 can refer to this model, first upgrade the core functions, then hand over the changes of interface and software functions to manufacturers and operators, and then increase them, then everyone can quickly upgrade the new system, thus ending the fragmentation of Android.

Improve password management

Android 7.0 "evaluation"! It's so beautiful
The program password management function in Android6.0 is not complete.

At present, fingerprint identification has become the mainstream, and Google Nexus 6P/6 is equipped with a fingerprint identification module for the first time. However, in Android 6.0, the smart password lock function is placed at the bottom of the inconspicuous settings menu, and the program password management function is incomplete. If you uninstall or reinstall the APP, the original settings will be restored.

The smart password lock function allows users to log in to the APP automatically, but there are still many apps that don’t support it. Android N may improve this function and make it easier for users to use the password management function.

More reasonable authorization management

At present, the authorization of Android 6.0 APP is decentralized, which means that users can choose specific individual authorization, or they can let specific programs refuse authorization and change settings at any time. This function makes many users puzzled, so many domestic manufacturers develop their own software to help users manage authorization better.

Android 7.0 "evaluation"! It's so beautiful
APP authorization of Android6.0 is decentralized.

On Android 7.0, it will avoid the authorization status that users need to look for patiently in the APP settings. With better authorization management function, its process will be more intuitive, users can better control the authorization of APP while keeping the whole process simple, and major manufacturers only need to slightly modify the authorization management.

Solve the problem of large screen of mobile phone-one-handed mode

With the smartphone screen getting bigger and bigger, there are countless large-screen mobile phones in the market. Apple has launched a 5.5-inch iPhone 6S Plus, not to mention Android.

There are many Android phones over 6 inches on the market. Although the screen view is large, the big-screen phones also bring distress to those who like to operate with one hand.

Android 7.0 "evaluation"! It's so beautiful
Smartphone screens are getting bigger and bigger.

The common practice of domestic manufacturers is to increase the one-hand mode, and achieve one-hand operation by reducing the screen display content. iOS can also pull down the screen content to the middle by touching the Home button twice, but Google officially has not optimized the large-size mobile phone. Therefore, it has become an exciting thing for Android 7.0 to join the one-hand mode.

Cadillac CT6, spending tens of thousands of dollars to change the rear wheel steering.

When it comes to Cadillac, everyone says that the steering wheel is off-center, but the owner I want to introduce today, his steering wheel is not off-center, and he also spent tens of thousands of dollars to install rear wheel steering for the low-end CT6.

I have a post-00 college student fan, Xiao Kai. His parents bought a 1.5-generation (19-22 models) low-grade CT6, which was originally used as a vehicle for walking at home. But Xiao Kai is an American car enthusiast. He is not very satisfied with this low-priced CT6 at home. He has always had three regrets in his heart:

First, on the original 40T version that has been discontinued, the 405-horsepower 3.0T engine and the same 8AT gearbox; The second is the 34-speaker Bose audio that was equipped at that time; The third is the rear wheel steering that was only available at that time.

But unlike most car owners, he doesn’t want to make regrets come true. However, it is almost impossible to change the engine and gearbox. It is expensive to change the audio. You think that the entire interior has to be dismantled, and the whole car will definitely sound abnormal. The only possibility is the rear wheel steering.

However, the construction is very difficult, and the rear wheel steering structure of CT6 is complicated. One of the five rear suspension links is pulled by the rear wheel steering machine to adjust the direction and angle of the rear wheel, and it is not just a matter of adding a steering machine, but also involves software programming.

The case of low-profile CT6 equipped with rear wheel steering can be counted by both hands in the country. In Xiaokai’s hometown Yinchuan, Ningxia, no repair shop dared to make this money. After searching for more than a week, an acquaintance finally took the job, but the upgrade process was not very smooth.

When the repair shop removed the rear axle, it was discovered that although the original factory reserved installation space, it still needed to drill holes in the rear axle. If it was wrong, Xiao Kai could consider replacing it with a new car. I guess many people gave up when they got here. However, he crustily skin of head finished drilling, perhaps because of his strength or luck. Everything went smoothly. He installed the steering gear, connected the wiring and wrote the program, so that the low-grade CT6 also had rear wheel steering. At high speed, the rear wheel will turn slightly in the same direction as the front wheel to enhance stability, and at low speed, it will turn in the opposite direction, reducing the turning radius.

For a car as big as CT6, Xiao Kai said that the biggest improvement is when you turn around. In the past, you had to hit two directions, but now you can pass in one direction. As for the stability he is most worried about, it seems that nothing has happened after two years.

Many people will find that the new CT6 has cancelled the rear wheel steering. The reason is very simple. What was the CT6 guide price before? How much is it now? Xiao Kai said that this rear-wheel steering gear alone cost ten thousand pieces, and it was imported from Germany. In the final analysis, it was still a matter of cost. Fortunately, acquaintances didn’t charge him for his working hours. Otherwise, they would change to a repair shop, regardless of whether they were willing to do it. If they didn’t charge thousands of dollars for their working hours, they would be sorry for the risks they took.

Xiao Kai is also true to his CT6, but I have a question. Since he is so willing to toss and turn, why not just sell his low-grade CT6 and buy a second-hand first-generation CT6? Around 200,000 yuan, you can receive a top-of-the-line 40T platinum version with a guide price of 818,800 yuan, and then spend tens of thousands to prepare the whole car. 3.0T, Bose stereo and rear wheel steering are all available, which is what the American flagship should look like.

Did Washington Zoo take care of Mei Xiang, a giant panda？ Here comes the explanation.

　　BEIJING, Sept. 4 (Xinhua) In response to recent reports from netizens that Mei Xiang, a giant panda living in the Washington Zoo, did not eat after delivery and that the zoo did not take good care of Mei Xiang, Weibo, the official of the China Giant Panda Protection and Research Center, published relevant explanations on the 3rd, and responded to many questions.

　　(The picture shows the artificial feeding monitoring screen of Meixiang by the keepers of Washington Zoo after Meixiang gave birth to the giant panda Baobao in 2013.)

　　Attachment: Description of the giant panda "Meixiang" in Washington Zoo

　　Recently, some netizens reported that Meixiang, a giant panda living in Washington Zoo, did not eat after delivery, and the living space was narrow. The Washington Zoo did not take good care of Meixiang. After receiving feedback from netizens, China Giant Panda Conservation Research Center attached great importance to it, further verified with the other zoo, and conducted in-depth discussions and exchanges on the "Mei Xiang" situation. The following is a description of the problems reflected by netizens.

　　1. About the feeding situation of the giant panda Meixiang.During pregnancy, giant pandas will store a lot of energy, and their appetite will gradually recover about a week after mating, and their food intake will reach a normal level in about a month. By the middle of pregnancy, their food intake will increase significantly, and the weight of individual giant pandas will increase to about 20% of their weight before estrus, but by the late pregnancy (20-35 days), their appetite will gradually deteriorate, and their food intake will drop significantly, and they will basically not eat food before labor.

　　In the late pregnancy, the females of giant pandas have obvious changes: some females will nest about 15 days before delivery, and their breasts and vulva will change obviously. About 3 days before delivery, females will begin to show slight fidgety behaviors (such as frequent walking, playing in water, scratching and biting wood branches and bamboo).

　　After the giant panda cubs are born, the females devote all their energy to caring for their cubs. In captivity, they will lose their cubs or pick them up for the first time to excrete feces 3-5 days after delivery. Most females start to eat a small amount of bamboo leaves about 5 days after delivery, but there are great individual differences. Some females have strong maternal instinct. In order to take better care of their cubs, even if food is placed next to them, females usually do not eat or eat in small amounts, so as not to affect the feeding of their cubs, and some do. At the same time, with the increase of the age of the cubs, the females will gradually start to lose their cubs briefly and defecate and feed. After feeding, mainly fresh bamboo leaves should be kept at a certain distance from the young, so as to prevent the young from being injured by residual bamboo fibers. When the bamboo intake reaches more than 2 kg, concentrate feed should be fed. After giving birth for 2 months, according to the appetite change and excretion of the female animals, the feed amount of concentrate and coarse feed should be gradually transferred to the daily feeding mode. For females with strong appetite and hunger, the feed amount of concentrated feed can be increased to 115% ~ 130% of the daily feed amount.

　　Previously, when the giant panda "Meixiang" gave birth to "Baby" and "Beibei", it only drank water four days after delivery, and began to eat a small amount after 11 days. The zoo has plenty of water and food outside the delivery room, and Meixiang can walk out of the delivery room to eat at any time. But now, out of the instinct to protect the safety of her young, she only goes out for a short time to drink water, and will gradually start eating naturally in the future. During this period, in order to help Meixiang eat, the Washington Zoo keeper artificially fed the giant panda in the delivery room.

　　(The picture shows the monitoring screen of the artificial feeding of Meixiang by the Washington Zoo keeper after the production of the giant panda.)

　　2. About the postpartum living space of Meixiang.In order to provide a good environment for the mother giant panda to nurse her cubs, the giant panda is usually placed in a sound-proof, light-proof, low-noise and undisturbed delivery room before giving birth. The delivery room is a tree hole (about 90cm in diameter and 130cm in height) or a tree pond (about 85cm in diameter and 70cm in height) prepared for the giant panda according to the characteristics of the wild giant panda nest, or it is transformed into a relatively small room according to the conditions of enclosure, so that the mother animal has a certain sense of security. Previously, the two productions of "Meixiang" were also in the same room.

　　(The picture shows the monitoring screen when Meixiang produced the giant panda "Baby")

　　3. Washington Zoo takes care of Mei Xiang.The Panda Center and the Washington Zoo have always maintained close contact, and the two sides have established a long-term exchange and guidance mechanism. Prior to the two productions of Meixiang, the Panda Center sent experts to Washington Zoo for on-the-spot guidance. This time, due to the epidemic situation, the Panda Center conducted online guidance and exchange on Meixiang’s babies. During the calving period, the Washington Zoo monitored and cared for giant pandas in full accordance with the requirements of the Panda Center, and the zoo sent special personnel to closely monitor the behavior of giant pandas 24 hours a day.

(The picture shows the veterinarian of Washington Zoo doing B-ultrasound for Meixiang.)

(The picture shows the "Meixiang" prenatal meeting held in Washington Zoo)

(The picture shows the monitoring room of the Washington Zoo. During the calving period, the staff closely monitored the pandas for 24 hours.)

　　On the birth of the giant panda "Meixiang", the Washington Zoo updated its official website from August 21st to 28th (every day) and 31st, and also popularized some postpartum behaviors of "Meixiang".

　　Thank you again for your concern for the giant panda!
