KASHGAR, China, Dec. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- On December 9, the Kashgar Regional Market Supervision Bureau convened an expert assessment group to evaluate the expansion of the assessment certificate issued to State Grid Kashgar Power Supply Company. This evaluation confirmed that the company has successfully passed the project measurement assessment, thereby enabling it to obtain a metrological institution's expanded project assessment certificate of conformity. As a result, this certification permits operations related to AC and DC charging piles as well as combined transformer calibration. The objectives outlined for the annual measurement system construction in 2024 encompass four key areas: reviewing assessments of energy meter standard devices, establishing new testing standards for AC and DC charging piles, conducting project assessments for measurement and calibration personnel, and performing agency expansion assessments. These activities are crucial for maintaining an effective quality management system while enhancing overall calibration and testing capabilities. It is essential to secure authorization from government departments in order to conduct metrological calibration work within the region. Prior to obtaining this expansion assessment certificate, both AC/DC charging piles and combined transformers must be sent to designated autonomous regional facilities for completion of their respective measurements at a certified testing institute. To ensure successful navigation through the agency's expansion assessment process, our company has deployed its core measurement business team tasked with establishing a systematic approach towards construction efforts. This includes meticulous organization of business information alongside comprehensive reviews of standard apparatus test reports accumulated over recent years. The team will compare these test data against established benchmarks according to specified assessment criteria while preparing a detailed operational manual covering all aspects related to measurement and calibration processes. Additionally, training sessions on instrument calibration methods will be conducted; these will include analyses focused on advanced concepts along with theoretical foundations pertaining to new norms and equipment advancements. Practical training sessions will also be organized concurrently.

BEIJING, Dec. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The restored Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral reopened on Sunday, following a grand ceremony held the day before. In his speech at the ceremony, French President Emmanuel Macron expressed gratitude on behalf of the French people to "all those who saved, helped and rebuilt the cathedral." On the cathedral's exterior walls, the words "thank you" were displayed in multiple languages. After the fire caused the collapse of the spire and the roof, the restoration of Notre-Dame was considered an "impossible task" due to its immense difficulty. The cathedral's rebirth from the flames is the result of collective strength and effort. "Architecture is the great book of humanity," wrote the French literary giant Victor Hugo in his masterpiece Notre Dame de Paris, also known as The Hunchback of Notre Dame, highlighting the profound value of architecture in human civilization. Standing on Île de la Cité in Paris, a small island in the Seine River, Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral has witnessed the history of France, symbolizing the spirit of French humanism and serving as a precious heritage of human civilization. After the abrupt fire of 2019, many countries extended their support for the restoration of Notre-Dame de Paris, with China being the first country to reach an intergovernmental agreement with France for the cathedral's restoration, allowing Chinese experts to participate in the restoration project. In February of this year, specialists from the Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum in China's Shaanxi Province went to Paris to assist with the conservation and restoration of Notre-Dame. China and France have jointly initiated scientific research on the preservation of wooden relics and earthen sites from both Notre-Dame and the Mausoleum of Emperor Qinshihuang. This marks the first international study of charred wood samples from Notre-Dame, with the Chinese team being the first non-French professionals to ascend the cathedral's spire. When placing Mausoleum of Qinshihuang and Notre-Dame cathedral side by side, people often focus on the "differences" and "diversity" between them. However, when viewed from the perspective of civilization, their commonalities begin to emerge: Both are symbols of ancient civilizations, both have suffered from fires, and both face complex preservation challenges, among other similarities. It is precisely this connection through civilization that allows the people of China and France to feel a sense of shared empathy across borders for Notre-Dame's disaster. As the modern Chinese Confucian master, Gu Hongming, said in his book The Spirit of the Chinese People: "Only the French seem to understand the Chinese people and Chinese civilization best, as they have to a preeminent degree a quality of mind which, above all things, is necessary to understand the real Chinese people and the Chinese civilization." In fact, the cooperation between China and France regarding the restoration of Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral is just one aspect of the broader collaboration in architectural heritage preservation and cultural exchange between the two countries. French architecture represents Western architectural art, and the traditional architectures of China and France differ not only in materials but also in styles. However, scholars from both countries have discovered through mutual learning that the similarities in their architectural arts are beyond people's imagination. For example, the "forest" of Notre-Dame is actually very similar to the Xieshan roof style architectural structure in China. This illustrates the significance of exchange and mutual learning, where both sides promote and enhance understanding through interaction, allowing the civilizations of both parties to radiate new vitality, thereby enriching the diversity of human civilization. This is especially relevant today. In the over five years since the fire at Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral, many events have occurred worldwide, such as the global COVID-19 pandemic, the stalemate in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, and the resurgence of conflict in the Middle East, among others. It can be said that the world, much like Notre-Dame five years ago, urgently needs "repair" and protection. In fact, when the bells of Notre-Dame ring again, it will have already demonstrated that human society can turn the "impossible" into the possible through unity and cooperation, and this exemplifies the power of mutual learning among civilizations. It indicates that the correct way to "repair" the world lies in the mutual exchange, learning, and cooperation between different civilizations. The newly restored Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral has made a meaningful arrangement. At the top of the church's spire, a new gilded copper rooster sculpture contains a scroll naming 2,000 individuals who participated in the restoration, honoring their contributions. The rebirth of Notre-Dame is not only the result of France's own efforts but also a product of international collaboration. In today's world, humanity lives in a diverse environment composed of various cultures, races, skin colors, religions, and social systems, forming a community of shared destiny. To break down the barriers and prejudices between civilizations and to avoid conflicts and confrontations, it is essential to promote mutual respect and harmonious coexistence among different civilizations. This will allow cultural exchanges and mutual learning to serve as a bridge for enhancing friendship among peoples, a driving force for the progress of human society, and a bond for maintaining world peace. Nearly two hundred years ago, Hugo revealed the value of equality through the contrast of beauty and ugliness, good and evil, in Notre Dame de Paris. Today, to understand the essence of various civilizations, it is even more important to uphold an attitude of equality and humility, to discard arrogance and prejudice, and to respect each other's differences with an inclusive and open spirit. Although Notre-Dame has reopened, its complete restoration will still take time. This means that cooperation across civilizations will continue to deepen, and such "repair" is something the world needs more of.
HONG KONG, Dec. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Learning environments significantly impact students' focus and mental well-being. However, limited living space in Hong Kong has exacerbated challenges in providing adequate study areas. A recent "Learning Environment Survey" conducted by ESDlife from October to November revealed that 80% of parents believe their children face excessive pressure, with 67% identifying alone time as an effective way to alleviate stress. To address this issue, Fortress Hill Methodist Secondary School and Ying Wa College have introduced the "Movable Silence Booth" by Contex and Soundbox. These booths aim to create a serene learning environment, enhancing students' focus and mental health. Silence Booths as a Game-Changer for Schools and Homes Academic Pressure Takes the Lead: 80% of Parents Concerned The survey indicates that 80% of parents feel their children are under significant pressure, with 96% attributing this to academic demands. In response to stress, 70% of parents express a need for "Me Time," and 67% believe that allowing children to be alone is an effective stress reliever.
