General regulations

1. After the King of Wu was destroyed, Pai, Cai Shu and Huo Shu monitored the adherents of Yin in the suburbs of Shangdu. Qiu, who succeeded to the throne at a young age, was assisted by his uncle, which caused dissatisfaction among the three supervisors. Guan Shu and others spread rumors that the Duke of Zhou was not conducive to becoming a king. In order to avoid suspicion, Duke Zhou moved to Luoyi, far from the capital. Soon, others colluded with Wu Geng, the son of Yin. Duke of Zhou was ordered to crusade, punish Guan Shu, kill Wu Geng, release Cai Shu and collect Yin Yumin. After the chaotic Zhou Dynasty, he wrote a poem "Owl" and became king. His poem said: "When it doesn't rain, peel off the mulberry skin and mix it with mud to tie the doors and windows. How dare you who live next door to me bully me? " Duke Zhou's poems are ironic. He hopes that when he becomes a king, he will formulate measures in time to stop rebellion and conspiracy. Although the king is not satisfied, he dare not blame him.

2. There is a poem named Owl in The Book of Songs, which describes a female bird who has lost her child and is still diligently building a nest. There are several poems: "It doesn't rain in the sky, but it rains." Today, this man still dares to insult others! "It means: before it rains, wrap the gap in the bird's nest with mulberry root bark as soon as possible. Only when the nest is strong will we not be afraid of people's invasion.

Later, everyone extended these poems to "prepare for a rainy day", which means that everything should be prepared in advance to avoid being in a hurry.

Take measures to prevent tsunamis

Wellington, May 17 (Reporter Xia Wenhui) "It is reported that a strong earthquake occurred in Chile, with a preliminary measurement of 8.2 on the Richter scale." 17, at 10: 37 am, the National Crisis Management Center of New Zealand received an emergency report on tsunami warning from the director on duty.

10: 4 1, the national crisis management center issued instructions to the national emergency center, civil defense departments, relevant medical institutions and local municipal authorities, requiring all parties to make tsunami emergency preparations. ...

This is the scene of 17 in the National Crisis Management Center on the ground floor of the Parliament Building in New Zealand. 16 The relevant departments headed by the Ministry of Civil Defence and First Aid of New Zealand are holding a joint tsunami warning exercise.

Before the "earthquake" occurred 19 minutes, the New Zealand Earthquake Monitoring Network had monitored the "earthquake" and paid close attention to the post-earthquake situation together with the Hawaii Tsunami Warning Center. The command hall of the National Crisis Management Center is brightly lit, the curves and numbers on the computer screen are constantly changing, the phone rings one after another, the commander decisively directs all links, and a simulated tsunami "war" is being carried out nervously and orderly.

This exercise in New Zealand is part of the Pacific Rim Joint Tsunami Warning Exercise, code-named "2006 Pacific Wave". * * * 28 countries and regions participated in the exercise. The Indian Ocean tsunami at the end of 2004 caused a huge disaster that shocked the world, and relevant countries have established tsunami early warning systems. This exercise is to conduct the first large-scale joint test of tsunami early warning system in the Pacific Rim region.

According to the exercise plan, the Hawaii Tsunami Warning Center first issued a tsunami warning, and then the warning was quickly transmitted to the emergency management departments of relevant countries. The country receiving the alarm must send the alarm to the local emergency center on the same day-no later than the next day.

John Norton, CEO of the National Crisis Management Center, said that this exercise is a rare opportunity to test New Zealand's tsunami emergency system, and all departments can find omissions and improve emergency plans; At the same time, he also hopes to sound an alarm to the people: a tsunami may happen at any time and must be prepared.

The exercise is still in full swing. Two hours after the "earthquake", the National Crisis Management Center received a report, and all relevant departments have made emergency preparations. Subsequently, a joint high-level national conference was held to discuss the tsunami response plan. The media are also constantly releasing information about the tsunami to the public, so as to start a nationwide response to the tsunami at any time.

The exercise lasted more than 5 hours, and the relevant assessment results will be reported to the National Crisis Management Center and relevant government departments.

After the exercise, Norton said at the briefing of the National Crisis Management Center that the tsunami emergency response is a systematic project, which depends on the effective cooperation and close communication of all relevant departments. Any delay or negligence in any link means immeasurable loss of people and property. Although the exercise is over, people must not relax their vigilance. "Especially before we go to sleep, we should at least figure out where to run out of the house as quickly as possible."
