第69期 Great wall of China

長城是人類歷史上最耗時、耗資、耗力的建筑工程，它是人類最偉大的建筑。長城像一條沉睡的巨龍，在中華大地上沿著鄉村蜿蜒起伏，綿延萬里。它是中國地理的一部分，舉世無雙，無與倫比。是一大世界奇跡。創造這偉大奇跡的是一個被稱為秦始皇的強權君主。

The Ancient Chinese territory map looked like a jigsow.Seven and seven kingdoms vying for power, but one of these kingdoms the chin kinodom conquered the other six kingdoms to create what is regarded as the first centralized empire in Chinese history.Emperor chin was brash and ambitious but he knew he could never defeat the ruthless horse-riding warriors to the northe-the Mongols.He decided that a wall should be built to prevent those Mongols invading again.So he started the long history of Great wall building.在此后的2000年里，中國各朝代繼續修建城墻最終形成了一條完整的城墻網絡，橫亙在中國北部。它寬15英尺，高21英尺，總長4000多英里。過去，中國長城一直發揮著它真正的實際作用——保衛國家?，F在它已成為一種象征，中華民族靈魂的象征。長城位列我們十大人工奇觀之首。

第73期 CDs+Beer=Science!

澳大利亞科學家卡梅倫·瓊斯發明了種將啤酒和聽CD結合在一起的新方法。瓊斯發現：將啤酒倒在光盤上，放一個晚上晾干，之后光盤表面會生成一種真菌。這種真菌并不會損壞光盤，而是改變了光盤中的音樂。

This bizarre innovation is the brainchild of Cameron Jones, who as well as being a mathematician with the record of published research also owns a nightclub in Melbourne.Johnes told New Scientist that he came across the discovery quite by accident, when he was Djing in his bar.“I often change CDs when my hands are wet with beer,” he said, “One night I must have changed the CDs, touched the data surface.” The following week, he put on a CD by Nine inch Nails and found that it would not play properly because fungus had grown on it.But the fungus had not ruined the disc.The original audio sequerce was there, but it woubl sometimes change in pich and there were small staccato noises in the background.他問自己：“如果我刻意地在光盤上種上真菌，酵母或細菌會怎樣呢？”

于是“酸奶光盤”便誕生了。

瓊斯說，他在這種開創性的研究過程中尚未毀掉任何光盤或播放機，但是他也警告說，這個技術可能會毀了計算機上的CD播放機，因為軟件應付不了這個。

上班的時候，誰在監視你？你能相信衛星正在監視你嗎？這正是加利福尼亞州奧克蘭城市工人們所擔心的。

他還提出一項議案：將衛星監控擴大到更多城市工人的身上。然而，有一些人則認為市政廳盯錯了人。一個未透露姓名的城市工人抱怨說：“要平衡預算，他們真正需要作的是盯著管理層。那才是花錢的大頭。”
