Chinese firms to build largest cross-sea cable-stayed bridge in Latin America
A joint venture of China Railway 20th Bureau Group Co and China Communications Construction Co signed a contract to build a cross-sea cable-stayed bridge in Salvador with the Brazilian state of Bahia on Thursday, meaning the construction of the largest such bridge in Latin America will kick off.
Located in Salvador, the capital of Bahia state in Brazil, the Salvador Bridge is designed to be 46.8 kilometers long.
One of the highlights of the bridge will be the 12.4-kilometer cross-sea section, with the main tower topping up at 205 meters and a maximum span of 450 meters.
The depth of water in the area reaches 60 meters.

这古庙正门石额有《天后古庙》四个字，两傍对联：「天眷垂恩，风调雨顺；后仪庇福，海晏河清。
庙门口一对石狮子，与汇丰银行门前狮子差不多，形状和神态都相似，祇是汇丰银行狮子是铜铸，而这庙的狮子是石雕。1964年重修，至1966年落成之际，适逢国内文化大革命破四旧，没有石狮子出口。於是不得不在港雕刻石狮。当时南丫岛有个石匠，早年在南洋替富翁雕刻石狮，都是汇丰银行那类型的外国石狮。坊众见中国石狮难找，外国狮子亦无碍，因此请他刻这对外国狮子作为守护庙门之用。与中国石狮不同，外国狮子是横卧的长方形，因此狮头不能望向庙外，横放在门侧，狮口相对。说也奇怪，自这间古庙用外国狮子守门後，榕树湾的渔民，网网千斤，足证这对石狮子旺财。
高塱村三山国王庙位于香港南丫岛榕树湾高塱村。创建年代不详。名称“国王宫”，又名王爷庙。 庙前建一石亭，方便善信拜祭活动之用。庙内有一嵌“国王”二字之对联：“国泰民安全赖神功造化，王灵显赫永垂万寿无疆”。
南丫发电厂自投产至2000年代初使用燃煤发电，之后逐步引入天然气。2012年，港灯的用电最高需求在8月，达到2,432兆瓦。2012年，燃料组合包括68%煤和32%天燃气，可再生能源少于0.1%。2013年，港灯备用电量达到52%。港灯向外宣称，不计算5台后备机组（单循环燃气轮机），备用电量有三成。[另外，港灯与中华电力联网，共享部分备用电量，但没有买卖电力。

China’s manned submersible dives 10,909 meters to deepest known point in Earth’s seabed
China’s manned submersible Fendouzhe, or Striver, made a 10,909-meter dive at Mariana Trench in the western Pacific Ocean, the Challenger Deep, the deepest known point in Earth’s seabed on Tuesday.
Striver is the world’s deepest-diving manned submersible, capable of carrying up to three passengers to conduct scientific research in the deep sea. It began taking on the 10,058-meter dive at Mariana Trench on October 27.
Striver is a manned submersible that incorporates the fine lineage of the previous two generations of deep-diving equipment, Jiaolong and Shenhai Yongshi. It not only uses a safe, stable, and powerful energy system, but also has more advanced control and positioning systems, as well as a more pressure-resistant manned capsule and buoyancy materials.
At 10,000 meters down in the Mariana Trench, Striver faces water pressure of more than 110 megapascals, the equivalent of 2,000 African elephants walking on a person’s back.
China’s first independently designed and integrated manned submersible Jiaolong reached a depth of 3,759 meters, making China the fifth country in the world, after the US, France, Russia and Japan, to master the technology of manned deep-sea submersion at a depth of 3,500 meters in July 2010.

It is a vigorously growing perennial creeper that grows best in areas in high humidity, light and soil fertility, though it can adapt in less fertile soils. The featherlike seeds are dispersed by wind.[1] A single stalk can produce between 20 and 40 thousand seeds a season.
