Linn Ullmann

Karin Beate "Linn" Ullmann (born 9 August 1966) is a Norwegian author and journalist. A prominent literary critic, she also writes a column for Norway's leading morning newspaper and has published six novels.
Ullmann was born in Oslo, Norway, to Norwegian actress, author and director Liv Ullmann and Swedish director and screenwriter Ingmar Bergman. She grew up in New York City and Oslo.
Ullmann attended Professional Children's School in Manhattan. When she was fifteen, she was "kicked out" (as she puts it) of the Norwegian National Opera and Ballet. She attended Juilliard School as a prospective dancer and graduated from New York University, where she studied English literature and began work on her PhD.
When her first and critically acclaimed novel Before You Sleep was published in 1998, she was already known as an influential literary critic. Her second novel, Stella Descending was published in 2001 and her third novel Grace was published in 2002. For Grace, Ullmann received the literary award The Readers' Prize in Norway, and Grace was named one of the top ten novels that year by the prestigious newspaper Weekendavisen in Denmark. In 2007, Grace was longlisted for the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize in the United Kingdom, and in March the same year, the Norwegian theater Riksteatret played a successful run of the theatrical play Grace, based on the novel.
Ullmann's fourth novel A Blessed Child was published in Norway the fall of 2005, and it was shortlisted for the prestigious Norwegian literature prize – the Brage Prize. In 2007, she was awarded the Amalie Skram Award for her literary work, and she received Gullpennen (the Golden Pen) for her journalism in Norway's leading morning newspaper Aftenposten. In 2008, A Blessed Child was named Best Translated novel in the British newspaper The Independent, and in 2009 the novel was longlisted for the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize in the UK and the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award in Ireland.

Embassy of Germany, London

The Embassy of Germany in London is the diplomatic mission of Germany in the United Kingdom. The embassy is located at Belgrave Square, in Belgravia. It occupies three of the original terraced houses in Belgrave Square and a late 20th-century extension.
From 1842, Christian Charles Josias von Bunsen leased 4 Carlton House Terrace for the Prussian Legation. In March 1849, the legation moved along the terrace to the larger 9 Carlton House Terrace, which was renamed 'Prussia House'. Its purchase was authorised by the Prussian Legation Act 1850 (13 & 14 Vict. c. 3): this was necessary as before the passing of the Naturalization Act 1870 (33 & 34 Vict. c. 14), only British subjects could legally own property in England.
Count Bernstorff replaced Baron von Bunsen in 1855, becoming the German Ambassador from 1867.
During the First World War, the building was occupied by the American Embassy (as protecting power) between 1916 and 1917, and then the Swiss Legation from 1918 to 1920. In 1921 the German Embassy resumed occupation.
During Hans Wesemann's 1936 trial over the kidnapping of pacifist writer Berthold Jacob from Basel, Switzerland, Wesemann admitted that the German Embassy in London had been used as a base for the activities of the Gestapo, the Nazi secret State police. In 1937, Ambassador Joachim von Ribbentrop hosted 1,000 people, including Prince George, Duke of Kent and his wife, Maria, Duchess of Kent, at the reopening of the Embassy at Carlton House Terrace which had undergone a £100,000 renovation. In September 1939, the German Embassy burned its files following the onset of World War II.
Throughout the war, the closed embassy remained intact under diplomatic conventions. But after World War II, with Germany itself occupied and German government properties taken up by the occupiers, Prussia House was requisitioned as enemy property, furniture and the works of art were sold in separate auctions. The British Fascist Robert Gordon-Canning attracted public attention when at one of these auctions he purchased a large marble bust of Hitler for £500 (equivalent to £27,000 today).
The Federal Republic of Germany moved its consulate and diplomatic operations to Belgrave Square, still operating as a consulate general. The consulate became a fully functional embassy in June 1951, the FRG leasing the building for 99 years in 1953. In the 1960s, the West German Embassy was the site of Jewish War veterans who were protesting signs in Germany of a revival of anti-Semitism.
In the 1970s, office space in the embassy was tight so an extension was erected at Chesham Place, inaugurated in 1978. It won the Westminster City Council prize for architecture.
In 1990, after German reunification, the East German embassy building at 34 Belgrave Square became part of the German embassy.
Embassy of Russia, London

The Embassy of Russia in London is the diplomatic mission of Russia in the United Kingdom. The main building and Consular section is located at 5 and 6-7 Kensington Palace Gardens at the junction with Bayswater Road; the Ambassador's Residence is located in a separate building at 13 Kensington Palace Gardens (Harrington House). Russia also maintains a Defence Attaché's Office at 44 Millfield Lane, Highgate, and an Office of the Trade Representative at 33 Highgate West Hill, Highgate.
The embassy of the Russian Empire was located at Chesham Place, Belgravia; this then functioned as the Embassy of the new Soviet Union from 1924 to 1927. Diplomatic relations were suspended during the period 1927–1929, and following their resumption the Soviet government moved to the various buildings on Kensington Palace Gardens.
In 1946 the Soviet government bought Seacox Heath, a country house in East Sussex, as a weekend retreat for its staff.
Following the dissolution of the USSR, the Russian Federation inherited the former Soviet properties in the UK. But this was not recognized by Ukraine and in 1999 it initiated litigation, which like the case with most other former Soviet embassies around the world, left the situation unresolved. Although previously the Russian Federation was able to register its property rights, it since then lost the rights to sell or rent it out. In 2022 it was reported that the British Government was considering gifting the house at Seacox Heath to the Ukrainian Government as compensation for the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The embassy has seen several protests over the years:
During the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, it was alleged that Russian planes bombed a children's hospital in Mariupol, Ukraine. Tweets from the Embassy of Russia about this were deleted by Twitter because the tweets were in violation of the Twitter Rules, specifically the 'Hateful Conduct and Abusive Behavior' policies related to the denial of violent events.
In February 2023, a small section of Bayswater Road near the Russian embassy was renamed Kyiv Road to mark the one-year anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Embassy of Israel, London

The Embassy of Israel in London is the diplomatic mission of Israel in the United Kingdom. It is located in the South Kensington area on Kensington Palace Gardens near the junction with Kensington High Street. The Grade II* listed building hosts both the Embassy of Israel and the Israeli Consulate, accessible via a separate entrance at 15a Old Court Place.
The embassy is situated at 2 Palace Green, the southern section of Kensington Palace Gardens, which is home to Kensington Palace itself as well as a number of other diplomatic delegations, and forms part of the Crown Estate. Security around the embassy is extremely rigorous, and photography of the building is prohibited.
The embassy occupies a house originally built in 1860–62 for the author William Makepeace Thackeray, constructed in red brick at his request. It was granted Grade II* listed status in 1969.
On 19 September 1972, a letter bomb delivered to the Embassy exploded, killing Ami Shachori, an Israeli diplomat. Seven other bombs claimed to have been sent by the Palestinian terrorist group Black September were either not delivered, or detected.
On 3 June 1982, Ambassador of Israel Shlomo Argov was shot and seriously injured on departing an event at the Dorchester Hotel where he was guest of honour. A terror cell claiming to have split from the PLO and headed by Abu Nidal took credit for the attack. After a lengthy coma, Argov died of his wounds in 2003. The incident is widely reported as being a key factor in the 1982 Lebanon War.
On 26 July 1994, a car bomb exploded outside the embassy, partially destroying the front of the building and injuring 20 people within and outside the building. The blast damaged shops on nearby Kensington High Street, and blew out windows in Kensington Palace. The attack came a day after the leaders of Israel and Jordan had met for peace talks and eight days after the AMIA bombing in Buenos Aires. Thirteen hours after the attack on the embassy another bomb exploded outside a Jewish charity building in north London, injuring six people. Five Palestinians resident in London were arrested in January 1995 in connection with the bombings and two – Jawad Botmeh and Samar Alami – were sentenced to 20 years in jail for their role in the attacks.
A series of demonstrations outside the embassy during December 2008 and January 2009, held in protest at Israel's "Cast Lead" operation in Gaza, were marred by violence and ended in a number of arrests and at least one court sentence for those taking part in the violence.
On 15 March 2010, Ambassador of Israel Ron Prosor formally announced the re-dedication of the embassy after an extensive refurbishment programme. As part of the embassy's re-dedication, the original Music Room of the Thackeray house was named in honour of late Ambassador Shlomo Argov.
Awards ceremony

An awards ceremony is a type of ceremony where awards are given out. The ceremony may be arranged by a government organization, a society, a school, a trade association or even a company that specializes in running awards ceremonies. Typically a master of ceremonies presents award winners, speaks to the audience, entertains people, and generally keeps the ceremony moving.
The Ancient Greeks held annual competitions for tragedy and comedy, financed by the wealthiest citizens. Awards were given out for best play, best producer and best actor. In the early Olympic Games there were two awards ceremonies. After each event the judges awarded palm branches to the winners. On the last day of the games all the event winners were announced, and crowned with olive garlands. No medals were given, and only the winner was announced, since the runners-up were not considered significant. It was not unusual for the athletes to risk heavy fines and to bribe the judges to be declared winners.
Components of a modern awards ceremony typically include:
The major American media awards have evolved into major prime-time television ceremonies, but had small beginnings. The first awards by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences were held in 1929 at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel three months after the winners had been announced. The Oscar statuettes for best movie, best actress and best actor were given out in a 15-minute ceremony. The Golden Globe Awards were founded in 1944 by eight journalists who had formed the Hollywood Foreign Correspondents Association. They arranged for a luncheon at 20th Century Fox where scrolls were given for best picture, best actress and best actor. The Tony Awards for theatrical plays and musicals were first presented at the Waldorf Astoria New York in 1947. The Academy of Television Arts & Sciences presented the first Emmy Awards at the Hollywood Athletic Club in 1949. The first Grammy Awards were given by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences in 1958, with Volare winning the Best Single award. The first MTV Video Music Awards were presented in 1984. The first Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards were presented in 1988. The Game Awards, an award show dedicated to the video game industry, has been livestreamed on YouTube and Twitch annually since its inception in 2014. Another annual awards show for the video game industry, the D.I.C.E. Awards presented by the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences, is livestreamed on the video game website IGN (and sometimes GameSpot) every February since 2012.
Major English-language entertainment awards ceremonies in January/February/March/April of each year now include the Academy Awards, American Cinema Editors, American Society of Cinematographers, Art Directors Guild, British Academy of Film and Television Arts, Costume Designers Guild, Critics Choice, Directors Guild of America Awards, Grammy Awards, Independent Spirit Awards, New York Film Critics Circle, Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards, Producers Guild of America Awards, Screen Actors Guild Awards, D.I.C.E. Awards, and Writers Guild of America Awards. The Game Awards are livestreamed in December of each year.
Liv (given name)

Liv is a Nordic female given name derived from the Old Norse "hlíf", which means "shelter" or "protection". In modern Norwegian, Swedish, and Danish it is also homophonous with the word "liv" meaning "life".
In Norse mythology, Líf and Lífþrasir (Old Norse masculine name from líf and þrasir), were two humans foretold to survive Ragnarök and to repopulate the world.
Sometimes Liv can be a shortened version of Olivia.
33rd Tony Awards

The 33rd Annual Tony Awards was broadcast by CBS television on June 3, 1979, from the Shubert Theatre in New York City. The hosts were Jane Alexander, Henry Fonda and Liv Ullmann.
The presenters were Tom Bosley, Barry Bostwick, Ellen Burstyn, Georgia Engel, Jane Fonda, Celeste Holm, John Houseman, Barnard Hughes, Angela Lansbury, Ron Leibman, Jack Lemmon, Hal Linden, Jean Marsh, Al Pacino and Dick Van Dyke.
The theme of the ceremony was theatrical superstitions, and various other showbusiness beliefs.
Henry Fonda received a Special Award, which was presented by his daughter Jane Fonda. Walter Cronkite presented Richard Rodgers with his Special Award.

The Wild Duck (film)

The Wild Duck is a 1984 Australian film directed by Henri Safran and starring Jeremy Irons and Liv Ullmann. It was adapted from the 1884 play by Henrik Ibsen, with the drama relocated to Tasmania in 1913.
The music score for this movie by Simon Walker was released as soundtrack albums in 1988 by Southern Cross Records (SCCD 1019) and in 2019 by Dragon's Domain Records (DDR661).
Faithless (2000 film)

Faithless (Swedish: Trolösa) is a Swedish film directed by Liv Ullmann from a script by Ingmar Bergman. The story is loosely based on experiences of adultery from Bergman's own life. It was entered into the 2000 Cannes Film Festival.
An aging director (named "Bergman") conjures in his imagination the central character, Marianne. He interviews her to compose the story of her life-changing affair. Marianne had been happily married to Markus, an orchestra conductor, with a young daughter Isabelle. Her best friend is David, who is seeking funding for a film project. When Markus is away, David approaches Marianne and they go to Marianne's home. There, David surprises her by asking her if they can sleep together. Marianne asserts she sees David more as a brother; she eventually agrees they can sleep in the same bed in nightwear and without sexual relations. However, the two note they are both planning to be in Paris, France, for separate projects. Markus is aware of their travel plans, and Marianne speculates she and David can meet in Paris, and they would not have to deceive Markus about seeing each other there. In Paris, Marianne and David begin their affair. David also asks Marianne about her sexual history, and Marianne shares her list of experiences; but this mostly consists of her relations with Markus, who she said had satisfied her in ways no one else had. This triggers a violent jealous reaction in David.
David and Marianne continue their affair after returning from Paris. Markus realises they are having an affair and eventually discovers the two together. Markus begins to seek a divorce, and seeks full custody of Isabelle. Marianne gets a lawyer, who tells her Markus has the upper hand, given her desertion of the home. Marianne moves in with David and the two plan to get married; Marianne becomes pregnant with his child. Her lawyer advises that these improved conditions could help her custody case. Markus eventually reaches out to Marianne to meet him alone to settle the custody case, ostensibly for Isabelle's sake. Despite David's angry objections, she agrees to go. At the meeting, Markus blackmails her for sex in exchange for custody.
Marianne confesses to the affair to David. The two separate and Marianne has an abortion. After hearing Markus has committed suicide, Marianne learns he had also been unfaithful with his page-turner. Bergman bids farewell to Marianne, but she says she suspects they will meet again.
The film opened 14 September 2000 in Sweden and Norway. It opened on 22 screens in Sweden and grossed $104,615 for the week, ranking in sixth place at the Swedish box office. In Norway, it grossed $53,455 for the week from 18 screens, ranking eighth at the Norwegian box office.

香港大熊貓

香港大熊貓目前共有6隻，其中4隻由中央贈送，另外2隻在香港出生。香港先後有3批大熊貓由中央贈送，每批均有一隻雄性一隻雌性。第一對安安和佳佳於1999年來港，均已逝世。第二對樂樂和盈盈於2007年來港，於2024年8月15日誕下龍鳳胎，帶來第一批在香港出生的大熊貓。第三對安安和可可於2024年來港。除了第二批因到港時只有編號而在香港命名外，所有贈港大熊貓都保留了在內地的原名。
目前，所有香港大熊貓皆居於香港海洋公園內，並由該園的護理員照顧起居。在展覽方面，海洋公園海濱樂園的「香港賽馬會四川奇珍館」及「大熊貓之旅」為大熊貓的寓所兼展覽場地。2025年2月26日，陳茂波就2025年財政預算案表示，為落實「無處不旅遊」的理念及《香港旅遊業發展藍圖2.0》，來年會向旅發局撥款12.35億元，加強熊貓旅遊、賽馬旅遊等特色項目。
2008年汶川大地震令上述熊貓的童年故鄉臥龍（屬汶川縣）受重創，核桃坪基地全毀，但國務院在「一省援建一個重災县」名單上遺漏了卧龙這個国家级自然保护区，臥龍得不到国家制度上的援助。臥龍此時想起了一国两制，臥龍遂向時任香港發展局局長林鄭月娥求救。那時香港深陷2008年金融危機、08股災，四川省委書記彭清華憶述「香港正遭遇国际金融危机严重冲击，股市楼市震荡、经济波动较大，市民生活也面临诸多困难，但...丝毫没有减弱香港同胞支援救灾」。香港決定出手，援建了大熊猫相關23个项目，花費14.22亿人民币（其中1.9億元是追加的，因為香港援助四川的122億總捐款有餘款，香港也不收回，將餘款改用於臥龍）。
援建熊貓是香港第一次境外援建工程。由於地震時塌牆壓死1頭熊貓，多頭熊貓從破牆逃出失蹤，川震校舍倒塌又壓死5,300名學生，香港堅持用國際規範的工程管理杜絕豆腐渣工程，在臥龍卻處處受阻，多次要四川省發改委用「中國特色方法」解決，事後香港發展局總結「四川重建是在內地講一國兩制」。建设过程泥石流、滑坡频发，「香港公务人员、专家和技术顾问，冒着风险长期留在卧龙调研、监督，我们很感动」。香港作為臥龍堅強後盾，保障了專業人才供應臥龍。香港援建令30萬四川同胞受惠。為感謝香港人對臥龍国家级自然保护区的付出，由香港援建的神樹坪「中華大熊貓苑」、都江堰大熊貓保育基地對香港人永久免票。2016年四川省長尹力代表四川人感謝「香港同胞長期以來對四川經濟社會發展，特別是抗震救災、恢復重建的關心、支持和幫助」。四川省委書記彭清華評價，「香港不仅为四川建起了一个个高质量的项目工程，也给我们带来了先进理念和管理机制...四川人民永远永远铭记」。
2024年7月1日，在香港27周年紀念日慶祝酒會上，行政長官李家超宣佈，中央將向香港送贈一對大熊貓，未來數月抵港。他感謝中央對特區的支持，認為可帶給市民歡笑喜悅，讓社會團結一致共同為香港創造更輝煌的成績。
李家超還提到，今年是中華人民共和國成立七十五周年，中央送贈大熊貓予香港特區別具意義。特區政府會全力做好迎接大熊貓的準備工作，感謝國務院港澳事務辦公室（港澳辦）及國家林業和草原局（國家林草局）為此所作出的努力和協助。特區政府已與港澳辦及國家林草局展開對接，商討大熊貓赴港的安排。特區政府會立刻展開籌備，確保香港海洋公園做好照顧大熊貓的各項工作。
7月8日，李家超偕同夫人林麗嬋及特區政府官員和海洋公園代表，到訪中國大熊貓保護研究中心都江堰基地，瞭解大熊貓的護理、飼養和商討赴港安排等細節。9日，李家超表示，中央送贈香港的一對大熊貓已選定，年齡約五至八歲，身體精壯，雄性大熊貓體重120多公斤，動作敏捷，聰明好動；雌性大熊貓體重約100公斤，溫柔可愛，性情溫順，當局力爭一對大熊貓10月1日到達香港。
文化體育及旅遊局局長楊潤雄表示，政府將推出宣傳活動保持社會關注，帶動「熊貓經濟」，繼續鼓勵盛事舉行，令各行業受惠；希望中央送到兩隻熊貓时，全港市民有機會觀看，牠们成為香港一員，能夠在好好在香港生活。
2024年3月盈盈及樂樂在香港海洋公園成功自然交配，盈盈經過近五個月的孕育期，於2024年8月15日凌晨2時05分及3時27分誕下一對龍鳳胎，為第一對在香港出生的大熊貓。盈盈是在她19歲生日前一日成功做媽媽，是有紀錄以來全球最年長初次成功產子的大熊貓，而且是雙胞胎，案例非常罕見。新生的大熊貓姐弟分別重122克及112克，雙胞胎出生體重比正常體重低、體溫偏低，進食較少，出生時的叫聲亦比較弱，專家評估雙胞胎狀態「非常脆弱」。海洋公園表示兩隻大熊貓寶寶料數月後才與市民正式見面。
就此，香港海洋公園特意開設香港首個以熊貓為主題的社交網站，分享大熊貓近況。
2024年9月14日為大熊貓龍鳳胎寶寶滿月，香港海洋公園社交網站發布多張大熊貓寶寶的照片，一對小姊弟俯臥在枕頭上，已逐漸呈經典「大熊貓」模樣，但尚未能看見東西及聽見聲音。目前大熊貓正處於「暴風式成長」期，姊姊體重已從122克增至910克；弟弟亦從出生時112克增至814克。隨體質變強，預計兩周後這對熊貓寶寶將無需再使用保溫箱。
由於龍鳳胎為姐姐及弟弟，按香港人習慣稱呼家裡的小朋友，匿稱姐姐為「家姐」，弟弟為「細佬」，所以「家姐」和「細佬」亦成為他們的乳名，而正式名字則留待徵名活動再選出。
2025年2月15日，大熊貓龍鳳胎半歲當天舉行亮相儀式，2月16日正式對市民公開展出。他們在半歲時體重均已超過11公斤。
盈盈 (大熊貓)

盈盈（2005年8月16日—）截至2024年8月20日，她已19歲，第二批贈港大熊貓之一，雌性。2007年與雄性大熊貓樂樂定居香港海洋公園。。 大熊貓「盈盈」的媽媽是「茜茜」外婆是「永巴」舅爸及舅媽及大姨媽是大熊貓「妃妃」「添添」及「美香」。
2004年9月，中國國家林業局副局長趙學敏赴泰國參加《瀕危野生動植物種國際貿易公約》第13届大会途经香港，香港渔农自然護理署藉機商谈大熊猫事宜。為慶祝2007年7月1日香港回歸十週年，2007年2月13日，国家林业局8人遴选专家组从三个单位提供的15只候选大熊猫中，选定了606和610的组合。4月20日-21日，香港民政事務局举办大熊猫606和610的命名比賽，共13,000人參賽，其中19人都提議了最終選定的名字。4月26日，606號樂樂和610號盈盈在香港國際機場交接儀式，由趙學敏與香港民政局局長何志平締約。「盈盈」寓意香港经济丰盈。經過境外生物檢疫期，2007年7月1日開放公眾見面。
2008年汶川大地震令盈盈的故鄉臥龍（屬汶川縣）受重創，但國務院在「一省援建一個重災县」名單上遺漏了卧龙，臥龍得不到国家制度上的援助。臥龍此時想起了一国两制，臥龍遂向時任香港發展局局長林鄭月娥求救。因卧龍送出盈盈等4頭香港大熊貓的合作關係，香港決定出手援建了14億，援助詳情和四川的答謝參見香港大熊貓§援建四川。
自2011年起，盈盈與樂樂開始交配，但未懷孕。2015年盈盈回臥龍自然交配並接受人工授精。10月1日，公園宣佈大熊貓盈盈懷孕，然而同月7日，公園證實盈盈流產。
2024年3月盈盈及樂樂在香港海洋公園成功自然交配，盈盈經過近五個月的孕育期，於2024年8月15日凌晨2時05分及3時27分誕下一對龍鳳胎，為第一對在香港出生的大熊貓。盈盈是在她19歲生日前一日成功做媽媽，是有紀錄以來首次生育時年紀最大的大熊貓，而且是雙胞胎，案例非常罕見。新生的大熊貓姐弟分別重122克及112克。
為分享最新資訊，香港海洋公園特意開設香港首個以熊貓為主題的社交網站，公佈盈盈生產紀錄及照顧剛出生的寶寶的片段。
盈盈誕下的龍鳳胎熊貓寶寶為姐姐及弟弟，按香港人習慣稱呼家裏的小朋友，匿稱姐姐為「家姐」，弟弟為「細佬」。
Atelier KAGUYA

Atelier KAGUYA（日语：アトリエかぐや）是日本アステックトゥーワン公司的成人遊戲品牌，簡稱「竹子社」。該品牌是由數個團隊組成，最早是由TEAM HEARTBEAT和Berkshire Yorkshire兩團隊為主，目前只有Honky-Tonk Pumpkin、Cheshier cat、BARE & BUNNY還有製作發售遊戲。
别对熊猫说不

《别对熊猫说不》（埃及阿拉伯語：باندا مايتقاللهاش لأ [ˈbændæ mæjetʔæl.læˈhæːʃ læʔ]，英語：Never Say No to Panda）是埃及廣告公司優勢營銷（Advantage Marketing）为阿拉伯乳制品公司（Arab Dairy Products Company）宣傳及推廣旗下品牌“熊猫起司”（Panda Cheese）而制作的一套电视广告系列，該廣告於2010年推出。
这些广告以一只会因人们不想尝试该品牌的奶酪而被激怒的大熊猫为主题内容，並在互联网上以病毒式传播，成為眾多網路迷因之一。Ali Ali和Maged Nassar負責编写了这些广告，并由製作公司開羅大象（Elephant Cairo）代理發佈。
廣告擁有多個版本，由不同的場景（如超市、辦公室、醫院等）與開首（兒子拿起貨架上的熊貓芝士、公司員工把熊貓芝士塗上麵包、護士將包含熊貓芝士的早餐送到病人面前）去帶出故事，共通之處是都有一个人被提供熊猫起司（或者含有熊貓芝士的食物），但是該人拒绝了。隨著鏡頭一轉，一只站立的大熊猫突然出现在他们面前，同時响起巴迪·霍利（Buddy Holly）的歌曲《True Love Ways（英语：True Love Ways）》。大熊猫先盯住拒絕熊貓芝士的人几秒，然后音樂中斷，大熊貓开始以暴力摧毁周围的物件发泄，並全程保持沉默。最后，《True Love Ways》再次響起，伴随着镜头转向该款奶酪產品，旁白讀出广告词——“别对熊猫说不”（常见中文空耳音译“潘达，没拿就害死他”）。
在中文互联网（尤其是中国大陆互联网社群）中，不少網民流行使用以熊猫头为特征各种表情包，其最初就是起源于广告《别对熊猫说不》。
普思资本

北京普思投资有限公司（英語：Prometheus Capital），简称普思资本，是一家投资公司，注册於北京市朝阳区，成立于2009年12月4日。公司由富商王健林之子王思聪全资设立，王思聪任董事长。公司的英文名取自希腊语普罗米修斯，即“先见之明”。公司称，截至2019年投资总额为30亿元人民币，官方网站列出的投资案例有32个公司。有媒体称不完全统计普思资本投资的公司约60家。
2009年，自英国伦敦大学学院毕业返回中国的王思聪创办了北京普思投资有限公司。传闻称，当时王思聪不愿进入万达集团，其父王健林决定给他5亿元人民币，供他练习创业，普思投资就是用这笔钱成立的。2016年，王思聪在一档综艺节目海选直播中否认了这个传闻，称王健林并未一次性给他5亿元供他创业，而是一次只给500万元或1000万元。
普思资本最初只投资了四家公司，即环球数码、云游控股、九好集团、无锡海古德新技术有限公司。2012年9月起，普思资本投资了十余个项目。普思资本投资的公司涉足的领域有医疗、移动互联、新能源、电子商务、殡葬业等。普思资本投资的公司里，有多家公司后来挂牌上市：云游控股、福寿园、天鸽互动、饮食概念在香港交易所上市，乐逗游戏在纳斯达克上市，无锡先导股份在深圳证券交易所创业板上市，Dexter公司在韩国科斯达克上市。
2015年10月，胡润研究院发布了《2015胡润百富榜》，榜单估计王思聪个人财富为40亿元人民币。有媒体分析，当时王思聪直接和间接持有深交所上市公司万达院线1000万股，这部分股权当时的市值约为15亿；分析称，余下的25亿来自王思聪的投资，如果王健林给王思聪5亿元启动资金一事属实，那么这一笔钱在6年间增值到了原来的5倍。媒体梳理，普思资本入股新三板公司英雄互娱并在后来清仓，获利5,000万元人民币，回报率约65%；普思投资400万美元入股云游控股，并在上市后抛售，获利78%，收益为312万美元；投资先导智能据称获得9倍回报；韩国公司Dexter在上市后的估值是普思资本投资时的3倍，浮动盈利约1.9亿元人民币；乐逗游戏上市前夕，首席执行官陈湘宇将自己持有的1.3%以大约590万美元的价格卖给普思资本，按照乐逗游戏上市当天的价格计算，投资回报约为5倍。
普思资本也有一些不成功的投资。普思资本投资约4亿元人民币的5家新三板公司天好电子、和信瑞通、麦凯智造、紫晶存储、星座魔山先后被摘牌。2012年出资1000万元人民币投资的九好集团借壳鞍重股份上市时财务造假，作为股东之一的普思资本被中国证监会处以警告，并罚款10万元人民币。普思资本后来将九好集团告上法庭，要求后者回购1.6314%的股权，并支付1540万转让金额以及违约金。普思资本在2015年买下乐视体育3.96%的股权，成为公司第八大股东。然而，由于资金被关联方占用，乐视体育后来无法正常经营，普思资本等股东遭受损失。普思资本在2018年11月申请仲裁，要求乐视体育赔偿损失9785.16万元。北京仲裁委员会在2019年11月裁定，支持普思资本的请求，要求乐视网等四家公司以2555.28万元向普思资本回购乐视体育股权。然而，分析认为乐视体育早已被吊销执照，乐视系债权人众多，这笔钱难以讨回。普思资本以3000万人民币投资的蓝游文化后来成为失信公司，拖欠职员工资。普思参与两轮投资的付费问答网站分答意外遭遇下线，恢复运营后表现低迷。
2019年3月，王思聪旗下的熊猫直播破产。随后，熊猫直播遭到多家公司起诉。王思聪旗下的其他公司遭到法院冻结。10月15日，上海市宝山区人民法院冻结王思聪持有的普思投资全部股权。不过，分析者指出，王思聪已在2019年5月9日将北京普思投资的全部股权质押给其父的大连万达集团，这一质押具有优先权，因此法院的冻结并无实质影响。10月21日，天津普思资产管理有限公司发布公告称，熊猫直播是王思聪以个人身份投资的，北京普思投资、天津普思资产管理、普思一号基金都不是熊猫直播的股东，同熊猫直播的投资人没有资金纠纷。11月11日，北京普思投资发布声明称，王思聪被限制高消费是由于熊猫直播平台倒闭所致，熊猫直播只是他投资的项目之一，“他还有许多其他投资项目，不能因为一个项目的得失而全盘否定，谁都不能保证所有投资百分之百成功”，普思资本正在代表王思聪应对问题，已经找到了解决方案，完全有能力自主解决。截至12月24日，王思聪的四条限制消费令已全部取消。12月26日，普思资本发布《熊猫互娱投资纠纷处理结果》，称由于王思聪个人为熊猫互娱的投资人提供了连带担保，致使公司债务牵涉到个人身上；公司通过两个月的谈判，同所有投资人达成协议，普思投资与实控人王思聪将全部承担近20亿元人民币的损失。声明称，普思投资的几十个项目“大部分项目是成功的”。有媒体引述王思聪朋友的消息报道，王思聪的母亲林宁出资1亿元人民币帮助他化解了债务危机，他的限制消费令才得以解除。

嘉嘉 (熊貓)

熊貓嘉嘉，雌性，原名沪宝，2009年生於四川雅安臥龍保護區的熊貓基地。
中国于2012年赠送给新加坡的两只大熊猫——“凱凱”和“嘉嘉”的名字从新加坡举办的全国命名比赛的1000个提名中选出，分别代表“胜利”和“美丽”。这两个名字象征对新中友好关系日益增进的希望。
四川大熊猫栖息地

30°50′N 103°00′E﻿ / ﻿30.833°N 103.000°E﻿ / 30.833; 103.000
四川大熊貓棲息地－臥龙、四姑娘山和夹金山脉位於中國四川省境內，成都平原与川西高原之间，包括邛崃山脉之中的7处自然保护区和9处风景名胜区。总面积9245平方公里，地跨成都市、雅安市、阿坝藏族羌族自治州、甘孜藏族自治州四个地级行政区的12个县或县级市。四川大熊猫栖息地拥有丰富的植被种类，環境與第三紀的熱帶雨林相似，是世界上除热带雨林以外植物种类最丰富的地区之一。同时，这里也是全球最大最完整的大熊猫栖息地，全球30%以上的野生大熊猫栖息于此。另外，這裏亦是小熊貓、川金丝猴、雪豹及雲豹等其它瀕危物種的重要栖息地。四川大熊猫栖息地于2006年7月12日登录成为世界自然遗产。
四川大熊猫栖息地由中国四川省境内的7处自然保护区和9处风景名胜区组成，地跨成都市所辖都江堰市、崇州市、邛崃市、大邑县，雅安市所辖芦山县、天全县、宝兴县，阿坝藏族羌族自治州所辖汶川县、小金县、理县，甘孜藏族自治州所辖康定县等12个县或县级市。
世界自然基金会

世界自然基金会（英語：World Wide Fund for Nature，縮寫：WWF），成立于1961年4月29日（成立時為世界野生生物基金會，英語：World Wildlife Fund，於1986年易名，但仍在美国和加拿大使用此名），其标誌是一只大熊猫。世界自然基金会最终目标是制止并最终扭转地球自然环境的加速恶化，并帮助创立一个人与自然和谐共处的未来。
它是世界上最大的环保组织，活跃于100多个国家。2014年，其资金55%来自私人捐赠，19%来自政府机构（如世界银行），8%来自公司投资。
WWF的熊猫徽标灵感来自于大熊猫姬姬。姬姬原本为赠送给苏联的大熊猫，后被苏方误认为是雄性大熊猫送回，1956年被奥地利动物商人海尼·德默从北京动物园购得，后移居伦敦动物园直至去世。
WWF当时特别需要一种能够跨越人类语言印象。熊猫有着毛茸的圆滚可爱体形和吸引人的充满魅力的黑色大眼圈。
WWF的筹建者们一致认为它的形象极适于作为组织的标志。第一个草图是由英国环境主义者和艺术家杰拉德·瓦特森打的底稿。WWF的筹建者之一，彼得·斯科特爵士，在这个基础之上，绘制了第一个正式的WWF徽标。他在当时表示：“我们选择它，是因为它是美丽可爱的濒危物种，它有着吸引人的特质，受到了世界上很多人的喜爱。”
1980年，WWF正式来到中国，受中华人民共和国政府邀请来华开展大熊猫及其栖息地的保护工作，1996年在北京设立了办事处。发展至今，WWF共在中国八个城市建立办公室，拥有100多名员工，开展了包括物种、森林、淡水与海洋、能源与气候变化、环境教育和野生物贸易等多方面的工作。
WWF中国的主要任务，就是为实现减少中国对全球的生态影响和改善人民生计的双重目标而提供解决方案。
2000年，世界自然基金会控告世界職業摔角聯盟濫用「WWF」的簡稱，而1979年，世界自然基金会與世界職業摔角聯盟都是使用「WWF」的英文簡稱，但是在1994年出現問題，因為世界自然基金会已經先把這簡寫先行註冊。
2001年8月10日，英國一間法庭宣布這項訴訟由世界自然基金会勝訴，世界職業摔角聯盟也因為這官司的敗訴，被迫將英文全稱，在2002年5月5日，由「World Wrestling Federation」改成由「WWE」簡寫組成的「World Wrestling Entertainment」，並將網址與所有內容，以及股票上市名稱，從「WWF」轉換成「WWE」，也是「WWE」被稱之「世界摔角娛樂」的起因。

福宝

福宝（韓語：푸바오，羅馬化：Fu Bao，2020年7月20日－），雌性，是韩国首只自然繁育诞生的大熊猫。 谱系号1284
爱宝（朝鲜语：아이바오）在经历一个半小时的阵痛后，于2020年7月20日晚9点39分成功诞下一只身长16.5厘米、重达197克的健康雌性熊猫宝宝。该熊猫宝宝不仅是成功在韩国自然繁育诞生的首只大熊猫，也是爱宝（朝鲜语：아이바오）与乐宝首个爱的结晶。
福宝出生8至9天时，身上就出现了湿疹和痤疮，但在动物园管理员的努力下，湿疹和痤疮很快就消散了。
正常的大熊猫幼崽在40天左右才会睁眼，而福宝出生仅15天左右就睁眼了，且瞳孔略呈扁平状，而不是正常的球形。为了预防眼睛受到感染，园方加强了饲养环境和饲养员的消毒，并增加母乳、牛奶等营养物质的供应，确保福宝眼睛正常生长。100天左右的时候，福宝的眼睛恢复正常。
后来，爱宝乐园在2020年9月22日到10月11日向韩国民众举办活动征选熊猫宝宝的名称。该活动吸引了5万人参加。最终，“福宝”获得了1.7万张票，超越了候选名称“辛辛”、“超宝”和“星宝”的票数，正式成为熊猫宝宝的名称。
福宝出生100天时，爱宝乐园正式公布名称征选结果。这时福宝的体重为5.8公斤、身长58.5厘米。
三星物产旗下的爱宝乐园与中国野生动物保护协会签订的的协议中规定福宝必须在满4周岁前（2024年7月20日）返回中国。爱宝乐园相关人士向朝鲜网表示，福宝预计将在2024年2月至4月期间返回中国 。
之后，爱宝乐园宣布将于2024年4月3日将福宝送回中国大熊猫保护研究中心。因此，福宝在3月3日之后将不再展出。此后开始全面准备回国，进行长达一个月的隔离。
2024年4月3日上午10时40分，欢送仪式结束后，饲养员姜哲远（강철원）与福宝启程前往仁川国际机场，乘坐川航A330-200F专机（3U9680航班）飞往成都。原本计划下午5点30分出发，由于检疫和登机手续顺利，提前至下午4点22分出发。福宝经过2个多月的隔离检疫和过渡适应后，于6月12日在熊猫中心卧龙神树坪基地公开展示。
2024年12月，福寶出現抽搐症狀，公衆對於福寶健康狀況的懷疑加大。 引發爭議後，中國大熊貓保護中心上傳了一段澄清視頻。
2025年1月，保護部門通過視頻發佈遷至非展區後的首次福寶近況。 責任飼養員說，福寶健康狀況好轉，食量增加。
福宝性格調皮活潑，像父親乐宝。5個月大時因抱住飼養員姜爺爺靴子的影片超過百萬人瀏覽而迅速爆紅，更加擁有自己的專輯歌帶。
熊猫香烟

熊猫香烟是中国一款高档香烟，有着近半个世纪的特供背景，熊猫牌香烟价格不斐。
熱愛吸食熊猫香烟者包括毛泽东和邓小平。
上海卷烟厂在生产“熊猫牌”香烟前已经使用过“熊猫牌”这个名字了。“熊猫”最初用在烟斗丝上，而铁盒上的标志是一对熊猫。
1956年，中国共产党将要举办第八次代表大会，北京食品工业部要求上海烟草公司赶制一批“特殊”香烟，要“为党的八大献礼”。最后决定让上海卷烟二厂来生产此类香烟。生产完成后也确定了烟标，烟标背景为蓝色，图案中是两只黑白相间的大熊猫；图案中还标有“熊猫是稀世珍品，此烟是烟中极品”的字样，后改为“熊猫是兽中珍品、此烟是烟中珍品”。
1956年初，上海卷烟二厂完成了熊猫烟的“任务”，用特制的箱子并用上海铁路局快件转送送到北京交由“八大”代表“评吸”。
在大跃进时期，中国政府提出了“超英趕美”的口号，而上海烟草公司决定由“熊猫牌”香烟来超过英国的“555”香烟。最后，上海烟草公司做出了十箱號稱可以超过“555”香烟的熊猫牌并通过“德信行”在香港销售，在售完后香港方面要求再次出货，但是由于原料无法供应，结果不能正常供货，最后每年仅少量生产一点，仅製造出特供的。
1990年，北京举办亚运会，北京要求上海提供熊猫香烟，但是由于原料问题，不能批量生产。烟草局决定实行“一牌两色”的方案，生产一种黄色熊猫，其配方水平高于中华但是低于蓝色熊猫。当时上海烟草公司为亚运会供应了100箱黄色熊猫和3箱蓝色熊猫。
到1997年，熊猫香烟才以礼盒形式出现，2004年上海烟草公司推出了“熊猫时代版”。
本列表介绍熊猫系列的卷烟：
功夫熊猫

《功夫熊貓》（英語：Kung Fu Panda）是一部於2008年上映的美國3D動畫電影，由梦工厂动画公司製作，派拉蒙影業發行，是《功夫熊貓》系列的第一部作品，由約翰·史帝文森（英语：John Stevenson (director)）和馬克·奧斯本（英语：Mark Osborne (filmmaker)）執導，劇本、故事分別由喬納森·艾貝爾和格倫·伯傑小組、伊森·雷夫和賽勒斯·沃里斯小組編寫。該片由傑克·布萊克、達斯汀·霍夫曼、安潔莉娜·裘莉、伊恩·麥克夏恩、成龍、塞斯·羅根、劉玉玲、大衛·克羅素、金德文、吳漢章、丹·富勒、邁克爾·克拉克·鄧肯獻聲主演，以擬人化動物居住的古中國作為背景，講述笨拙的熊貓阿波（布萊克 飾）立志成為武林高手的故事。
阿波是一隻身材圓滾、笨手笨腳的熊貓，對中國武術滿懷熱血，尤其崇拜著玉皇宮的五位武術高手－「蓋世五俠」悍嬌虎、靈鶴、快螳螂、俏小龍與猴王。然而對習武滿懷憧憬的他，每天仍得在父親鵝阿爹開的麵館幫忙打工。
這天，武林大師龜大仙預感，惡名昭彰的殘豹即將逃獄。為了選出繼承者對抗殘豹，龜大仙舉辦了一場武林盛會，預計將從蓋世五俠中選出一位，培訓成為傳說中的「神龍大俠」。阿波為了參觀武林盛會，冒險以煙火噴射進入會場，卻意外被龜大仙選中，在師父與蓋世五俠皆不看好的情況下開始習武之路，以對抗殘豹、守護武林價值。
本片配音陣容包括傑克·布萊克、達斯汀·霍夫曼、安潔莉娜·裘莉、伊恩·麥克夏恩、成龍、塞斯·羅根、劉玉玲和大衛·克羅素等。
本片最初是由夢工廠動畫公司的主管邁克爾·拉珊絲所構思，其灵感電影包括由周星驰主演的《破壞之王》以及李安執導的电影《臥虎藏龍》。但比起模仿武俠片，導演史蒂文森則決定製作一部動作喜劇武俠電影，並將英雄的旅程敘事原型融入主角。電影中的電腦動畫比夢工廠以前做過的作品還要更加復雜。與大多數夢工廠動畫一樣，由漢斯·季默與約翰·包威爾合作為電影製作配樂。作為準備的一部分， 《功夫熊貓》的製作團隊訪問了中國，以吸收該地文化及由中國國家交響樂團演奏配樂。
本片配樂由漢斯·季默與約翰·包威爾共同製作。
爛番茄新鮮度87%，基於193條評論，平均分為7.1/10，而在Metacritic上得到74分，代表「普遍好評」，IMDB上得7.6分，收穫普遍讚譽。
《功夫熊貓》於2008年6月6日在美國首映，當日票房共計2030萬美元，週末票房總計6020萬美元，勇奪美國當週票房排行冠軍。在夢工廠所有當週開映動畫電影當中排行第三高，次於《史瑞克2》和《史瑞克三世》。同時打破夢工廠非續集動畫《鯊魚黑幫》的最高票房紀錄，成為夢工廠票房最高的非續集作品。
2010年感恩節期間，美國NBC電視台曝光一段長達21分的《功夫熊貓感恩節特輯》，被部分網友誤認為是續集片段流出而迅速在網路上流傳。該片該主要講述熊貓阿波在中國節日“冬至”到來，首次主持在網路“冬季慶典”的故事。開頭延續首集由夢境拉開序幕，鵝阿爹夢到阿波無法繼承家業麵店遠離，為首集父與子之間的身世之謎「熊猫的爸爸為什麼是一隻鵝？」埋下伏筆，並在續集随着故事的發展而揭開。僅管特輯與續集劇情並無太大關係，但短片中出現的幾個新角色，包含雷霆犀利俠將在《功夫熊猫2》中現身。

孟菲斯動物園

孟菲斯動物園（英語：Memphis Zoo），位於美國田納西州孟菲斯中城（英语：Midtown, Memphis），始建于1906年4月，是奧弗頓公園擁有超過100年歷史的主要租戶。動物園佔地76 acre（31 ha），飼養着超過3,500頭，共500個品種的動物。2008年，孟菲斯動物園獲旅遊網站貓途鷹評為美國最佳動物園。
整个动物园分为三个区域，总共展示了十余个不同的主题园区。观看所有主题园区需要步行约2英里（3.2公里），园内设有有轨电车运送游客往返。
2009年10月开幕，占地4英亩（1.6公顷），以提顿山脉命名，展示了黄石国家公园的生态系统，建造有老忠实间歇泉、火洞瀑布等标志性的复制品。栖息于此的动物有灰熊、麋鹿、马更歇狼、号手天鹅、北美豪猪、美洲黑熊、沙丘鹤等。

2003年4月开幕，耗资1600万美元建造，占地3英亩（1.2公顷），曾居住有由中国租借的两只大熊猫“乐乐”、“丫丫”。孟菲斯动物园拥有10 acre（4.0 ha）的竹林，种植了7种竹子，并从孟菲斯周边大约40个经过审查的地点收集竹子。为大熊猫采集新鲜的竹子。孟菲斯动物园每年会对大熊猫进行一次全面体检。孟菲斯动物园的管理体系和操作规程比较完善，饲养人员每天都会记录熊猫吃的食物的时间、种类和重量，还有它的粪便情况等。兽医定期给熊猫做口腔检查，取它的血液、粪便、尿液、毛发等做化验分析，还定期给熊猫做行为训练，这样可以让大熊猫更好地配合健康体检。每个月，他们都会把这些数据汇总成健康报告和体检报告，定期发给中方。栖息于此的动物有麋鹿、亚洲小爪水獭、白枕鹤、黑叶猴和其他鸟类。
1995年开幕，展示各个品种的猩猩属、狒狒属、猴属等灵长类动物。
占地3英亩（1.2公顷），展示各个品种的虎、狮、豹等猫科动物。

超过20只黑脚企鹅以及五只鹈鹕生活在此。
耗资数百万美元由原儿童活动区进行翻新改造而成，以19世纪的农场生活为蓝本，游客可在此体验昔日家庭农场的运作、农作物的种植以及驯养动物的喂养。
隨着大熊猫樂樂於2023年2月1日去世，另一隻大熊猫丫丫身體欠佳的狀況亦備受關注，有中國網民甚至呼籲盡快接丫丫回國。
據悉，目前丫丫身體瘦骨嶙峋 （事實上是年齡的關係，中國動物園協會已澄清孟菲斯並沒有虐待動物 ）、且伴有皮膚病 （實際上是家族遺傳問題，丫丫的母親早被發現有蟎蟲性皮膚病，而丫丫在剛送到孟菲斯時已經被發現被毛問題 ）、長期性拉肚子、由於心理壓力導致的長期性刻板行為 （事實上孟菲斯動物園有給予豐容措施，而熊貓的乞食等刻板行為是很難解決的問題，歸根還是因為野外生活和飼養是無法比擬的，中國飼養的熊貓也有很嚴重的乞食問題）、毛髮粗糙髒亂（事實上是季節性換毛和年齡的關係）等一系列不樂觀狀況引起全球華人不滿。中國專家在現場視察過之後已積極協調及辦理有關手續，爭取早日運輸丫丫回國。在2023年4月27日，丫丫按合作協議到期回國，現居於北京動物園。

BEASTARS

“BEASTARS”為日本漫畫家板垣巴留所繪製的日本漫畫作品。於2016年9月8日出版週刊少年Champion上開始連載。2018年連獲漫畫大賞等重要獎項，2021年3月發行量突破600萬冊。
2019年2月宣布電視動畫化，由Orange製作动画，同年10月開始播放動畫。
板垣巴留曾於週刊少年Champion連載的“BEAST COMPLEX”獲得相當好評故推出同樣由擬人化動物做為角色的“BEASTARS”。
這個作品以擬人化動物角色與高中校園生活為背景，藉由物種之間的關係以及模擬現代社會的方式，詮釋一個表面上平靜但充滿著爭執和矛盾等等面向的人性化世界。內容不僅描繪了跨越種族的友誼和愛情，也凸顯出角色與周圍環境的對立及互動。
在草食動物和肉食動物共存的世界，初高中直升寄宿制的切里頓（CHERRYTON/チェリートン）學院中，一名叫提姆的羊駝被咬殺－－這是這個世界最大的禁忌，也是兩種族間無法跨越的溝壑；同屬戲劇社，心思細膩卻沉默寡言的青年狼雷格西卻被懷疑是犯人……
這樣的他和各種動物相遇交際，展開了一場充滿著青春活力的動物群像劇，同時在命運交錯的發展下， 雷格西逐步走上成為BEASTAR的英雄之路。

起司，又名奶酪，音譯芝士、起司、起士、吉士，是多種乳製芝士的通稱，有各式各樣的味道、口感和形式。乾酪以奶類為原料，含有豐富的蛋白質和脂質，乳源包括家牛、水牛、家山羊或綿羊等。製作過程中通常加入凝乳酶，造成其中的酪蛋白凝結，使乳品酸化，再將固體分離、壓製為成品。有的乾酪在表面或內部布有黴菌，给奶酪带来特别的风味。根据种类不同，奶酪在常温时可为坚硬的固体或柔软的半固体，高温时都会融化，呈粘稠的半液体状态。
奶酪可以分為上百種，乳源（產乳動物所吃的食物也有差異）是否使用巴斯德消毒法、乳脂含量、細菌和霉，處理方法和發酵決定了他們的形狀、口感及味道。奶酪可以用香草、香料或者煙燻來調味。奶酪中的黃色和紅色（例如紅萊斯特奶酪）是由於添加了胭脂樹的种子。
少數乳酪中牛奶是通過加入醋、檸檬汁或者其他的酸來凝固的，而大部份的乳酪是通過細菌輕微酸化，將乳糖變為乳酸，然後加入凝乳酶使之完全凝固。凝乳酶可由小牛的胃中取出，也可以採用細菌培養或被其他物質代替。大多數素食奶酪是由真菌米黑毛霉發酵製成，但也有一部份是由菜薊屬的不同種類提取出的。
大多奶酪呈乳白色到金黄色，含有丰富的蛋白质、脂肪、鈣、磷、维生素A、維生素B12等。现代也有用脱脂牛奶作的低脂肪干酪。
英文中「cheese」一詞來自拉丁文“caseus”。中文中的起司或芝士，由英文中的cheese演變而來。乾酪則出自北魏《齊民要術》，現今亦用作同義詞。
乾酪是在歷史還沒被記載前就有的古老食品。到目前為止，製造乾酪的起源還沒有確鑿的證據。歐洲、中亞地區、或中東地區都有可能是乾酪的發源地。但這製造乾酪的技術已在羅馬時期之前就在歐洲範圍內散播；還有，根據老普林尼，當羅馬帝國興起時乾酪製作已經成為一個尖端的行業。
相傳乾酪是起源於阿拉伯。約在六千年前，阿拉伯人將牛奶和羊奶放入皮革器皿中，作旅途解渴之用，繫於駱駝側。在艷陽高照的沙漠上顛簸行走數小時後，卻發現袋內的羊奶已分成兩層，一層透明狀的乳清及白塊凝脂。原來皮革器皿中含有類似凝乳酶的酵素，加上旅途顛簸搖盪及被太陽高溫照射，乳液隨之發酵，形成半固體狀態，最初的芝士就這樣誕生。至於現代奶酪的制作方法是由欧洲人最先发明的，目的是为了保存多余的牛奶，也方便作旅行食物。传统的乾酪大多用生牛奶制作，现代对于这种做法的卫生性有不同看法，但是对用消毒奶作出的乾酪味道好坏也有争议。
奶酪的最早證據是公元前二千年初期的烏爾第三王朝的蘇美楔形文本。公元前2000年在埃及墓葬壁畫中描繪了奶酪的製造。阿拉伯傳說將奶酪的發現歸因於阿拉伯貿易商儲存牛奶方法的步驟。然而，奶酪在蘇美人中已經是眾所周知的。
中國新疆塔克拉瑪干沙漠發現中國現存最古老的奶酪，分析其中的蛋白质和脂肪，約為公元前1615年。
2010年法國考古學家考古學家在位於埃及塞加拉（Saqqara）的古城孟菲斯巿長卜塔邁斯（Ptahmes）之墓內發現了3200年前的芝士，經研究後確認該芝士固體殘渣，為全球最古老的芝士固體殘渣，有關研究已刊登在《分析化學》（Analytical Chemistry）期刊。
做好的起司按照含水量可分为软、硬和極硬；另外还可以按照做法和外形分为以下几种：
奶酪也根据产地进行分类。详见世界各地奶酪列表（英语：List of cheeses）。此外，农牧业发达地区大多也进行小规模的奶酪生产，比如中国新疆伊犁及内蒙古等部分地区。
各国有不同的做法。奶酪有很多吃法。奶酪配饼干是一些西方人午餐的选择。奶酪与葡萄酒，是法式餐食主菜之后、甜食之前的一道。烧意大利菜亦离不开奶酪，做意式麵食和比萨饼都需要奶酪。希腊人用生菜、橄欖和奶酪凉拌。传统的瑞士芝士火锅（fondu）是当地冬季的暖身美食。著名的奶酪食品还有：芝士蛋糕，奶酪荷包蛋，法国洋葱汤等。中国没有食用奶酪的传统，但近年来随着经济提升，对外交流增多，中国的奶酪几乎以每年翻倍的速度增加。
奶酪，尤其是成熟奶酪有特殊的气味，没有吃过的人初次尝试可能会感到不适。有些人吃了奶酪不舒服，原因可能有两个：第一是因为奶酪营养太高，容易因难以消化而引起发胀，越硬的奶酪越是会这样；另外一个原因是无法消化乳糖（乳糖不耐症），奶酪中的乳糖含量较牛奶中少，切达奶酪中的乳糖含量只有牛奶中的5%，而且越老的奶酪中的乳糖含量越低。
此外猶太教飲食規則中禁止肉乳相混，也是出於防範因難以消化而引起發脹形成腸胃不適的情形。
著于古罗马的《论农业》一书中认为，羊奶酪比牛奶酪更易消化。
乾酪是全世界的主要農產品，依照聯合國糧食及農業組織的資料，2011年全世界生產的乾酪超過二千萬公噸，相當於世界上每個人約三公斤。世界上最大的乾酪生產國是美國，約佔全世界生產量的26%，其次的是德國及法國。在美國生產的乾酪主要是以莫薩里拉乾酪及車打芝士，遠高於其他種類的乾酪。
只有愛爾蘭、紐西蘭、荷蘭及澳洲的乾酪製品是出口導向的，各國的乾酪製品出口的比例約佔95%、90%、72%及65%。法國生產的乾酪只有35%會販售到國外。美國是世界最大的乾酪生產國，但其大部份的乾酪是國內使用。
List of giant pandas

This is a partial list of giant pandas, both alive and deceased. The giant panda is a conservation-reliant vulnerable species. Wild population estimates of the bear vary; one estimate shows that there are about 1,590 individuals living in the wild, while a 2006 study via DNA analysis estimated that this figure could be as high as 2,000 to 3,000.
Many zoos and breeding centers in China house giant pandas. These include:
In the following table, MC = moved to China.
Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding

The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding (or simply Chengdu Panda Base) is a government-funded non-profit breeding and research institute for giant pandas, red pandas, and other rare animals, located in Chengdu, Sichuan, China.
Chengdu Panda Base was founded in 1987 by the Chengdu Municipal People's Government. It started with 6 giant pandas that were rescued from the wild. By 2008, it had 124 panda births, and the captive panda population has grown to 83. Its stated goal is to "be a world-class research facility, conservation education center, and international educational tourism destination."
In February 2024, the institute made international headlines after it banned a 53-year-old male visitor for life for throwing unspecified objects into a giant panda enclosure.
Chengdu Panda Base has partnered with many organizations in improving ways to conserve giant pandas. For example, its partnership with Zoo Atlanta helped the zoo secure the loan of 2 giant pandas. To date, these 2 giant pandas, Yang Yang and Lun Lun, have produced five off-spring: Mei Lan in 2006, Xi Lan in 2008, Po on November 3, 2010, twins Mei Lun and Mei Huan on July 15, 2013, and twins Ya Lun and Xi Lun on September 3, 2016.
Other research partners include:
On April 11, 2013, Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding and CNTV reached an agreement on the establishment of iPanda.com after an official signing ceremony, and they immediately started preparing for the test launch (which was estimated in June 2013).

Sesamoid bone

In anatomy, a sesamoid bone (/ˈsɛsəmɔɪd/) is a bone embedded within a tendon or a muscle. Its name is derived from the Greek word for 'sesame seed', indicating the small size of most sesamoids. Often, these bones form in response to strain, or can be present as a normal variant. The patella is the largest sesamoid bone in the body. Sesamoids act like pulleys, providing a smooth surface for tendons to slide over, increasing the tendon's ability to transmit muscular forces.
Sesamoid bones can be found on joints throughout the human body, including:
In equine anatomy, the term sesamoid bone usually refers to the two sesamoid bones found at the back of the fetlock or metacarpophalangeal and metatarsophalangeal joints in both hindlimbs and forelimbs. Strictly these should be termed the proximal sesamoid bones whereas the navicular bone should be referred to as the distal sesamoid bone. The patella is also a form of sesamoid bone in the horse.
Although many carnivores have radial sesamoid bones, the giant panda and red panda independently evolved to have an enlarged radial sesamoid bone. This evolution has caused the two species to diverge from other carnivores. The red panda likely originally evolved the "pseudo-thumb" in order to assist in arboreal locomotion. When the red panda later evolved to consume a bamboo diet, the enlarged bone underwent exaptation to assist in grasping bamboo. The giant panda, however, evolved the enlarged radial sesamoid bone around the same time as it evolved a bamboo diet. In the giant panda, the bone allows for a pincer-like motion and is used in grasping the bamboo. In these two panda species, DYNC2H1 gene and PCNT gene have been identified as possible causes for the pseudo-thumb development.
Recently, the enlarged radial sesamoid bone of cotton rats has been studied. Their enlarged radial sesamoid bone and that of the giant panda have a similar morphology and size relative to the rest of the hand. The reason for this evolutionary change is still unknown; however, it may be to assist in grasping small objects and thin branches.
Elephants have similarly enlarged sesamoid bones in both their forelimbs and hindlimbs, referred to as the prepollex and prehallux, respectively. These sesamoids function as "sixth toes", helping to distribute the animals' weight. In contrast to other sesamoids in elephants, which ossify at three to seven years of age, the ossification of the prepollex and prehallux is delayed and is known to not have yet occurred in animals in excess of 20 years of age. The prehallux is further divided into two elements; the more proximal of these is fixed, whilst the more distal is mobile. Evidence of these "predigits" has also been found in certain fossil proboscideans.
The forepaws of moles also possess a prepollex consisting of an enlarged, sickle-shaped sesamoid.
Ailurarctos

Ailurarctos ("cat bear") is an extinct genus of panda from the Late Miocene of China, some 8 million years ago.
Different teeth structures in the Ailuropoda lineage indicate a mosaic evolution during the past 2 million years. Like modern giant pandas, Ailurarctos had a false thumb that allowed it to grip bamboo, suggesting that the panda's specialized bamboo diet goes back to as early as 6 to 7 million years ago.
An An (giant panda)

An An (Chinese: 安安; pinyin: ān ān; August 1986 – 21 July 2022) was a male giant panda residing in Ocean Park Hong Kong, a gift from the Central People's Government of China to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in 1999. He was the longest-living male giant panda in the world under human care before his death in 2022.
An An was born in August 1986 in Sichuan, China, and originally lived in Wolong National Nature Reserve, from where he was sent to the Ocean Park in March 1999 as a gift from Beijing to Hong Kong, along with the female giant panda, Jia Jia.
In 2017, the 31-year-old An An became the world's longest-lived male giant panda in captivity. Following the death of Jia Jia in 2016, An An continued to live at Ocean Park. His health deteriorated in the last three weeks before his euthanisation and he stopped eating solid foods while feeling lethargic. He was euthanised on 21 July 2022, at age 36 (144 years old in human age).
Bei Bei

Bei Bei (/beɪ beɪ/ BAY BAY; Chinese: t 貝貝, s 贝贝, p Bèibèi) is a male giant panda cub who was born and lived at the National Zoo in Washington, D.C., in the United States. He was part of US-China relations panda diplomacy, and was sent to the People's Republic of China on November 19, 2019, at the age of 4. He is currently at the Ya’an Bifengxia Base of the Giant Panda Conservation and Research Center in southwest Sichuan province. He is the brother of Tai Shan, Bao Bao, and Xiao Qi Ji.
Bei Bei was born on August 22, 2015, at 10:07 pm, together with a twin who was born at 5:35 pm that died from pneumonia 4 days after their birth. His mother is Mei Xiang. His father, via artificial insemination, is National Zoo panda Tian Tian. As of November 21, 2019, he weighed 240 pounds (108 kg).
On September 25, 2015, five weeks after the birth of the baby panda, he was named "Bei Bei" by Michelle Obama and Peng Liyuan, the first ladies of the United States and the People's Republic of China, respectively. The name was selected from a list of suggestions by officials from the National Zoo and the Wolong National Nature Reserve in China's Sichuan Province. The National Zoo preferred the name Ping Ping (平平, "peace"), while "Bei Bei" was the staff choice at Wolong; doubled names are usually chosen because they are diminutive in Chinese. The first ladies revealed the name in both English and Mandarin, assisted by third-grade students from a Chinese-immersion elementary school in Washington, D.C. The name means "precious" or "treasure", the same as his sister Bao Bao born two years earlier in 2013. Zoo director Dennis Kelly admitted that the name is likely to give rise to jokes and wordplay linking the name to "baby".
Before the naming ceremony, Kelly said, "It's a very exciting day because it celebrates more than four decades of research and success on the giant panda, and to have it recognized by the two first ladies is an honor."
Bei Bei made his first public viewing on January 16, 2016. After 3 and a half years viewed at the National Zoo in America, the panda was sent to China to participate in a breeding program. On Tuesday, November 19, 2019, Bei Bei departed the National Zoo with veterinarian Dr. Donald Neiffer and his life-long keeper Laurie Thompson on the FedEx Panda Express to China. He landed in Chengdu, China on Wednesday, November 20, 2019, and spent 30 days in quarantine before moving to the Chengdu Panda bases.
In 2021 Bei Bei became the subject of a children's book titled Bei Bei Goes Home, written by Cheryl Bardoe. The book describes his return from America to China and what that means for conservation efforts.
Bei Bei turned 9 years old in 2024. Giant pandas achieve sexual maturity between the ages of 4 and 8. It has been reported that upon reaching this milestone, he would become part of a breeding program credited with increasing panda populations until they could be removed from the endangered species list. Some scientists disagree with this assessment and assert that, although the number of pandas in captive breeding programs like this one is growing, multiple threats to wild pandas still exist.
Chinese Silver Panda

The Chinese Silver Panda (Chinese: 熊猫银币; pinyin: xióngmāo yínbì) is a series of silver bullion coins issued by the People's Republic of China. The design of the panda is changed every year and minted in different sizes and denominations, ranging from 0.5 troy oz. to 1 kilogram. Starting in 2016, Pandas switched to metric sizes. The 1 troy ounce coin was reduced to 30 grams, while the 5 troy ounce coin was reduced to 150 grams. There is also a Gold Panda series issued featuring the same designs as the Silver Panda coins.
The first Silver Panda coins—issued 10 yuan Panda bullion in 1983, 1984 and 1985—were proof quality, with a precious metal content of 27 grams of 0.900 fine silver and a diameter of 38.6 mm. Mintages were only 10,000 for each year. No Silver Pandas were issued in 1986. The 1987 Silver Panda coins were minted in proof quality from 1 troy oz. of sterling (.925 fine) silver, with a diameter of 40 mm. There are several mints that produced Silver Panda coins over the years, including: Shanghai, Shenyang, and Shenzhen. Unlike coins made by US and German mints that carry mintmarks to distinguish their origin, Chinese mints generally do not carry mintmarks. In certain years there are minor variations in the coin design—such as the size of the date, and temple that allows the originating mint to be determined. An example is 1996 where different mints produced coins with minor variations in the font size of the date on the obverse side of the coins. In 2015, the Gold and Silver Panda coins were not labeled with metal fineness and weight. This information returned in 2016 when the 1 troy ounce coin was replaced by the 30-gram coin (one troy ounce is approximately 31.1 grams).
The official distributor in China for the Silver and Gold Panda coins is the China Gold Coin Incorporation (CGCI).
As of 2020, the highest-priced coin is a perfect 1983 proof panda worth $16,430. The highest-priced, non-proof coin is a perfect large-date 1991 panda worth $3,100.
Taking the 1-ounce silver coin as an example, the authentic coin has a thickness of only about 2.6 millimeters, while the thickness of the counterfeit coin exceeds 3 millimeters. If they are of the same thickness, the counterfeit coin will not weigh 31.1 grams.
The diagonal reeding was first introduced in the 2001 D (Domestic) Gold Panda Coins. This feature was introduced to other Chinese Panda Coins in 2002.
The center of the obverse is a depiction of The Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, located in the Temple of Heaven complex in Beijing. The Hall was built between 1406 and 1420. Chinese characters on top say "中华人民共和国", meaning the People's Republic of China and the bottom the year of issue. If the issue is a commemorative issue, the theme will be marked here also. The reverse shows portraits of the giant panda that changes every year (except for 2001 and 2002, which share the same design).
There are many varieties of types of coins issued:
