Robot hosts South Korean wedding 机器人当司仪


  A ROBOT acted as master of ceremonies at a South Korean wedding. Its creators said this was the

  first time a robot had been used for such an event. Seok Gyeong-Jae, a Korean

  engineer, helped design the robot. He decided to let it assist in his wedding.

  The robot, Tiro, had a cone-shaped body, two arms, and a head with dark-glasses.

  The eyes and mouth were flashing lights. The robot introduced the couple to

  guests in a male voice, and performed various other duties. The manufacturer,

  Hanool Robotics, put Tiro’s value at 200 million won ($215,000). It said the

  robot would be upgraded to perform other functions.

“Robin Hood” banker goes to prison “现代罗宾汉”被判入狱


  A GERMAN banker has been sent to prison for two years and 10 months. Because

  he was stealing money from rich clients to help poor ones. The 45-year-old banker

  held a senior position at a savings bank. He found that some clients were poor,

  so he put rich people’s money into their accounts. But then he lost track of

  the money and forgot where it was coming from. This went on for five years.

  The man took 2.1 million euros ($2.79 million) in all. He stopped the scheme

  in January 2006, and turned himself over to police. A spokeswoman for the court

  said, the man hadn’t used the money to enrich himself. So the German media called

  him a modern day Robin Hood.

  近日,德国一名银行家被判入狱两年零十个月,原因是他挪用部分富人帐户里的钱去“帮助”穷人。 这名男子今年45岁,在德国的一家储蓄银行担任高级职位。他发现有些储户很贫穷,便偷偷地挪用富人帐户里的钱去“帮助”他们。但是不久之后他就发现挪用的存款根本无法全部追回,他甚至记不起这些钱来自哪些帐户。这位“侠盗”的“劫富济贫”行为持续了五年,涉及金额210万欧元。

  2006年1月他终于收手,并向警方自首。 法庭的一位发言人称,这名男子自己并没有借此机会大发横财。德国的新闻媒体称他为“现代罗宾汉”。

  
Mugger goes from robber to robbed 偷钱包不成反被抢


  A WOULD-BE German thief became a victim himself.

  He tried to rob a taxi driver but had his own wallet taken by the driver. This

  happened in the western town of Aldenhoven. A 20-year-old man stole a driver’s

  wallet, but the driver saw it immediately. They fought with each other. In the

  end, the driver not only got his own wallet back, but also took the young man’s.

  The driver then locked himself in his taxi and called the police. When the police

  arrived, they found the young man waiting for them. He wanted to get his wallet

  back. The police questioned the young man, and let him go, returning his wallet.

  But he had to pay for attempted robbery.

  几天前,德国一名企图在出租车上偷司机钱包的小偷不仅没有偷到钱,反而被司机给抢了。

  这件事发生在德国西部小镇阿尔登霍芬,一名20岁的男子在乘坐出租车时偷了司机的钱包, 却被对方发现,两人展开了一场“肉搏战”。最后,出租车司机不但抢回了自己的钱包,还夺走了小偷的钱包。

  随后,司机将自己反锁在车内并报了警。警察赶到后,发现小偷竟然守在车旁,他说想要拿回自己的钱包。警察审问了小偷,把钱包还给了他,并将他释放,但他将面临抢劫未遂的指控。
