BEIJING， April 25 (Xinhua) -- Beijing Municipality will build 100 toilets with free Wifi access this year， part of the city's ""toilet revolution"" efforts.


The toilets， to be built in the districts of Tongzhou and Fangshan， will also have ATM machines and charging facilities for cellphones and electric vehicles， said Ji Yang， an official with the Beijing Municipal Commission of City Administration and Environment.


Baby seats will be installed next to the toilets so mothers can free their hands when nature calls.


The estimated cost of each toilet is between 50，000 yuan (7，685 U.S. dollars) and 100，000 yuan， Ji told Xinhua on Monday.


Urinals for children and barrier-free facilities will be installed in the city's current toilets， together with ventilation and air conditioning systems to ensure a stable temperature of at least 12 degrees Celsius in winter and no higher than 30 degrees Celsius in the summer， he said.


Muddy floors， dirty squat toilets and waste paper litter are a common scene in China's urban public toilets.


A ""toilet revolution"" is planned in the city over the next five years to improve sanitation and service levels， Ji said in a press conference on Friday.


Details will be included in a public toilet construction standard， which is expected to go into effect in October.


As long queues are common in women's bathrooms in high-traffic areas such as tourist spots and shopping malls， the new standards will scrap the original regulation of a 1:1.5 toilet ratio for men and women， allowing for more flexible arrangements.


In the past four ""toilet revolutions，"" which began in 1965， 1989， 1994 and 2002， the city eliminated pit toilets， fees for toilet use and renovated public toilets in alleyways. As of 2015， there were 5.77 public toilets per 10，000 people in the city， higher than the national standard of 4.

After confirming the accident on Tuesday, Germanwings and Lufthansa changed their otherwise colored logos into gray scale on social media.


At the request of the German Ministry of Interior, flags at all federal agencies in Germany will fly at half-mast from Wednesday to Friday.


The state of North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) Rush Jordan Phillips Jersey , of which Duesseldorf is the capital, also decided to fly flags in government offices at half-mast on Wednesday and Thursday.


A total of 16 teen-aged students and two teachers in Joseph-Koenig High School in Haltern am See, a town 80 km north of Duesseldorf, died in the plane crash.


After the tragic news was received, the school was closed. Many students brought flowers and candles to mourn their peers.


"This is the darkest day in the history of our city Rush DeVante Parker Jersey ," said Bodo Klimpel, the mayor of Haltern am See.


The local newspaper Halterner published on Wednesday a full-page obituary, stating: "16 students and two teachers of Joseph-Koenig High School lost their lives in the tragic plane crash in France, leaving a whole town in shock. In these difficult hours, our deepest sympathy goes to the families and relatives Rush Xavien Howard Jersey , friends and companions of the victims."


NRW Minister of Education Sylvia Loehrmann said at a press conference: "No one can take the pain of losing a close family member or friend. We can only share it. And through this sharing we can provide some consolation."


German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Wednesday arrived with NRW Prime Minister Hannelore Kraft at the crash site in southern France.


German President Joachim Gauck, who was visiting South America, also decided to cut short his visit and return home early. "My thoughts are with the families and friends of the victims," he said. "May they find strength and comfort in this difficult time."

TAIYUAN, Jan. 15 (Xinhua) -- Archaeologists have unearthed 18 ancient tombs from different periods in north China's Shanxi Province.


The excavation was conducted by the provincial institute of archaeological research from February to May 2017 in Taigu County, where a high-speed railway line section is about to be built.


Three of the tombs were confirmed to date back 800 years to dynasties of the Jin (1115-1234) or Yuan (1271-1368), and the others were built later, Wang Jun Rush Cordrea Tankersley Jersey , an associate researcher with the institute, said Sunday.


More than 80 pieces of buried articles, such as porcelain bowls and oil lamps, were also excavated, said Wang Rush Raekwon McMillan Jersey , leader of the excavation team.


One of the tombs was a long trapezoid tomb with 11 recesses in the tomb wall, and was believed to be built in the Jin or Yuan Dynasty.


He said at least 15 skeletons, male and female, were placed in porcelain coffins after cremation in the recesses in the 6-meter-long tomb.


"Cremation was rare in ancient Chinese funerals, and the tomb was possibly connected to Buddhists Rush Charles Harris Jersey ," Wang said, adding that the tombs had provided significant materials for studying the funeral characteristics at that time.


Chinese people traditionally believe the body must be kept intact and buried in the soil for the soul to rest in peace. However, cremation has been popular among Buddhist monks for centuries.
