Food 'printer' saves time

食物'打印机'省时又省力

Scientists at Cornell University are building a 3-D food printer as part of the bigger Fab@home project, which they hope one day will be as commonplace as the microwave oven, BBC reported. Just pop the raw food "inks" in the top, load the recipe - and the machine will do the rest. The goal is to blow the lid off cooking as we know it and change the future of food production. People lacking even basic culinary skills could download recipe files from master chefs or print out nutrition-packed dishes recommended by their doctors.(See photo)

据英国广播公司报道，美国康奈尔大学的研究人员正在研制一种3D食物"打印机"，只需将食材跟打印机墨汁似的放在上面，然后输入菜谱，接下来的一切就不用你操心啦。食物"打印机"只是康奈尔大学Fab@home研发项目的一部分，研究人员希望有朝一日它能跟微波炉一样在日常生活中得到普及。该机器的出现将使烹饪不再神秘，并为食物制作带来崭新的未来。即使连基本厨艺都不过关的人也可以下载大厨的食谱，或者"打印"出医生所推荐的营养美食。

A purported new video of Osama bin Laden shows the al-Qaeda leader urging Americans to convert to Islam to stop the Iraq war, but the video does not contain any overt threat ahead of the sixth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.

The videotape's authenticity has not yet been /confirm/ied, but media organizations have quoted unnamed U.S. officials as saying it appeared to have been made as recently as this summer.

In a soft voice, and measured tone, the man purported to be bin Laden delivers a wandering 30-minute tirade against democracy, capitalism and Western political leaders.

He specifically refers to U.S. President George W. Bush, the Democratic victory in U.S. Congress, French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who was elected in May, and new British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, who took office in June.

银行抢劫案〃I wish Central Bank would be robbed，〃George Pickens said to himself. He had been making this wish daily from the time he had started work as a teller at the bank. All over the country banks were being robbed, George thought sourly. Why not this bank ?Were robbers scornful of its four-million-dollar capital?Were they afraid of Mr. Ackerman, the old bank guard, who hadn't pulled out his gun in twenty-two years? Of course, George had a reason for wanting the bank to be robbed. After all, he couldn't simply take the thick bundles of bills that were under his hands all day long. So he had thought of another way to get them. His plan was simple. It went like this: If Bank Robber A holds up Bank Teller B… And if Bank Teller B gives Bank Robber A a certain amount of money… What is to prevent Bank Teller B from keeping all the money left and claiming that it was stolen by Bank Robber A? There was only one problem. Where was Bank Robber A? One morning George entered the bank feeling something was about to happen.〃Good morning, Mr. Burrows.〃he said cheerfully. The bank president muttered something and went into his office. At two o'clock Bank Robber A walked in. George knew he was a bank robber. For one thing, he slunk in. For another thing, he wore a mask. 〃This is a holdup.〃the man said roughly. He took a pistol from his pocket. The guard made a small sound.〃You，〃the bank robber said，〃lie down on the floor.〃Mr. Ackerman lay down. The robber stepped over to George's cage. 〃All right.〃he said.〃Hand it over.〃〃Yes, sir.〃said George.〃Would you like it in ten-or-twenty-dollar bills？〃 〃Just hand it over！〃 George reached into his cashbox and took all the bills from the top section, close to six thousand dollars. He passed them through the window. The robber snatched them, stuffed them into his pocket, and turned to leave. Then, while everyone watched Bank Robber A, Bank Teller B calmly lifted off the top section of the cashbox and slipped bills from the bottom section into his pockets. The bank robber was gone. George fainted. When he woke he smiled up at the worried faces looking down at him.〃I'm all right.〃he said bravely. 〃Perhaps you should go home, George.〃Mr. Bell, the chief auditor, said. As soon as he was safely behind his bedroom door, George took the money from his pockets and counted it. He had seven thousand dollars. He was very happy。

The next morning when George arrived at the bank, it was not open for business. But everyone was there, helping to examine the bank's records for the special audit Mr. Bell was taking. George was called into Mr. Burrows's office. The bank president seemed strangely cheerful.〃George，〃he said，〃I want you to meet Mr. Carruthers, who used to be president of our bank.〃 〃Good morning, George.〃said Mr. Carruthers.〃I was sorry to hear you fainted yesterday. Are you all right now？〃 〃Yes, sir. Just fine, thanks.〃 〃I'm glad to hear it. That was quite an adventure. It just goes to show how easy it is to rob our bank.〃 〃Sir？〃said George, confused.〃 George, I was sorry to give you a hard time yesterday, but with all the banks being robbed these days I thought it would be a good idea to prove that our little bank can be robbed too. I have retired, but I haven't stopped thinking. That's why I played my little game yesterday, just to keep everybody on his toes.〃 〃I don't understand.〃said George.〃What game？〃 The old man laughed and whipped out a mask. He placed it over his face and said，〃All right. Hand it over！〃Mr. Burrows laughed but George did not. 〃And the money？〃George asked in a small voice. 〃Don't worry.〃Mr. Carruthers said.〃I put it all back in your cashbox, all six thousand. We're just finishing up the audit now.〃George turned cold with fear. Behind them, the door opened and Mr. Bell, the chief auditor, put his head into the room.〃Mr.Burrows，〃he said gravely，〃may I see you a moment？〃 欢迎到我们银行来 “我真希望中央银行遭劫。”乔治·皮肯斯自言自语道。

自从他在这家银行当上出纳以来，天天都这样希望。 全国的银行都被抢了，怎么不抢这家？他越想越不是滋味儿。

难道强盗们看不上这里400万美元的资金？还是他们怕这里的老警卫阿克门先生？他已经22年没掏出他的枪了。 当然，乔治有理由盼望这个银行遭劫。

毕竟，他不可能把他整天经手的大捆大捆的钞票就这么拿走。于是，他想出了另一个法子把它们弄到手。

他的计划很简单，大致如下： 假如强盗甲劫持了银行出纳员乙……假设乙把一定数额的钱交给了甲…… 那么又有什么能阻止乙把剩下的钱全部私吞，然后就说所有的钱都被甲。

BBC六分钟前刚到的早间新闻：（更多精彩尽在Google Reader!!）Wariner leads U.S. to 400 sweep, sets personal bestOSAKA, Japan -- Defending and Olympic champion Jeremy Wariner led an American sweep of the medals in the 400 meters Friday at the track and field world championships.Wariner won in a personal best 43.45 seconds, with LaShawn Merritt taking silver in 43.96 and Angelo Taylor getting bronze in 44.32.It was the first medal sweep for any country in the men's 400 at the world championships.Chris Brown of Bahamas was fourth in 44.45.The American gold rush continued in the women's 200, as Allyson Felix defended her world title.Days after skipping the 100 meters to concentrate on the 200, Felix had all the power her competitors lacked to surge down the home stretch.Her face intense with concentration, she let go of a big "yes" and broke into an immediate smile once she streaked across the line in a season's best of 21.81 seconds.She was 0.53 seconds clear of Veronica Campbell, who had to settle for silver after winning gold in the 100.Jamaica's Campbell had the best start and kept ahead until halfway, but then the toil of eight races in six days caught up to her. Felix swept ahead and, keeping her lithe body and elegant stride under control, won the United States' seventh gold medal of the meet.Susanthika Jayasinghe of Sri Lanka won bronze in 22.63. Americans filled fourth and fifth places with Torri Edwards in 22.65 and Sanya Richards in 22.70.However, not all was well for the United States.Bryan Clay's defense of his decathlon world title was over by the end of the first day.Clay hurt his right quadriceps when he planted his foot for his second attempt in the high jump at 6-6?， and slumped under the bar onto the mat. He limped away and did not return to competition."He heard something pop," said his agent, Paul Doyle, adding the injury made it impossible for Clay to run the 400 meters.Jamaican Maurice Smith also failed at the same height and could not further build his lead in the standings. Czech Olympic champion Roman Sebrle however moved up into second place when he cleared a season's best 6-11?.After 4 of 10 events, Smith had 3,591 points for a 28-point edge over Sebrle. Clay had faded to third with 3,558.Clay's misfortune in the high jump spoiled a good opening to the competition. He started with victories in the 100 and the long jump. But he slipped behind Smith after the shot put.After failing to defend his 1,500 title and finishing with silver, Rachid Ramzi of Bahrain could not even make the final of the 800 on Friday. In his semifinal, he faltered badly and finished last of his race. Favorite Yuri Borzakovsky easily won his semifinal to advance to Sunday's final.While Clay and Ramzi had trouble in the stadium, for Russia, it was a walk in the park earlier Friday.Olga Kaniskina led a 1-2 finish in the women's 20-kilometer walk through the muggy parkland outside the Nagai stadium, keeping Russia in close contention with the United States in the medal standings.And Russia had to do it without defending champion Olimpiada Ivanova, who walked out early when the pain of an old skiing accident became too much.Instead of 37-year-old Ivanova, a new generation took over. Kaniskina, 22, who walked away from the pack early, was never troubled again. Behind her, 19-year-old Tatyana Shemyakina won silver."To be world champion after 2? years of serious walking training is great," said Kaniskina.Russia now has 13 medals, including four gold. The U.S. team also has 13 medals, but has six gold.In other results Friday, Yargelis Savigne kept Russia's Tatyana Lebedeva from a triple-and-long jump double Friday by winning the multistep event with a season's best leap of 50 feet, 1? inches. Lebedeva jumped 49-5?.In the high jump, season's leader Blanka Vlasic of Croatia was among 16 who reached the qualifying mark of 6-4. Defending champion Kajsa Bergqvist of Sweden, Olympic champion Yelena Slesarenko and European titlist Tia Hellebaut also advanced.In women's javelin, Barbara Spotakova of the Czech Republic won the title with a national record throw of 220 feet, 0 inches.Christina Obergfoll of Germany finished second at 218 feet, her second silver medal at consecutive world championships. Steffi Nerius of Germany, the Olympic silver medalist, was third at 211-4.World record holder Osleidys Menendez of Cuba did not defend her title because of injury.In men's javelin, defending champion Andrus Varnik of Estonia failed to qualify for the final.Vadims Vasilevskis of Latvia had the top throw of 286-7.
