VisWall: High Resolution Display Wall
高清屏幕墙的广泛用途
Some walls can be windows into a world we can hardly imagine, the exquisite details of the stone-mason's craft, the mind-bending world of fractals, with the shapes may shrink, but they're all the same. Or the very blueprint of what we are all made of, a strand of DNA.
一些墙壁是通向我们难以想象的世界的窗户，石匠雕刻的精密细节，引人入胜的不规则世界，其形状可以缩小，但是其他的是完全一样的。或者我们人体构成的蓝图，DNA双螺旋结构。
"You can immerse yourself in your data, you know, you could do that in 3D, this software, and the VisWall have 3D capabilities."
“你可以沉浸在数据中，你可以用3D技术，使用3D软件来处理信息，高清屏幕墙拥有3D功能。”
In this case, a churning twister, eat your heart out Hollywood. "You can try to describe the birth of a tornado in words are, we spent, having a very powerful 3D animation. I mean, the images speak for themselves."
在这个例子中，翻腾的龙卷风，好莱坞中经常用到的场景。“你可以尝试用强有力的3D动画描述一个龙卷风的生成。我的意思是，图片本身会说话。”
Measuring 14 by 8 feet, this video behemoth is known as "the VisWall". You can't get it at Best Buy though, you have to go to the Tufts University in a place called the Center for Scientific Visualization. With support from the National Science Foundation, Lionel Zupan helped bring the VisWall to life. The VisWall uses two rare screen projectors to display a picture four times the resolution of the best HD TV. Four times! Faculty and students from many disciplines use it. For example, a surgeon develops software so her students can practice their technique without cutting any tissue.
宽14英寸，高8英寸，这个巨大的视频显示器叫做“高清屏幕墙”。然而，在Best Buy你也买不到，你必须到塔夫茨大学一个叫做科学可视化中心的地方。在全国科学基金的支持下，Lionel Zupan将高清屏幕墙带到生活中。它使用两个罕见的屏幕投影仪来展示图像，其分辨率是最好的高清电视的四倍。四倍！师资力量和许多学科的学生都使用这种屏幕墙。例如，一位外科医生研发出一种软件，这样她的学生不需切开任何组织就可以练习手术技巧。
"I can feel the texture itself and I can change instruments, so here I can actually cut, so I'm gonna try to rub the tumor."
“我能够感觉到纹理，能够变换工具，所以，我能够试着切除肿瘤。”
Mathematician Boris Hasselblatt went to the wall to get a fresh view of a model that forecasts the population growth of certain animals and even though he has studied this for twenty years, what he bounced things off the wall, he saw something he had never seen before. "What's apparent at this scale ,with this resolution and detail and being at eye-height as well, is that all the curves of this sort seemed to be meeting right here." It turns out those curves indicate chaotic conditions. "That, I think, is one of the great things about this wall that, in fact, will get people to see things that, otherwise hard to see."
数学家Boris Hasselblatt使用屏幕墙来重审预测某种动物数量增长的模型。尽管他已经研究该专题二十年的时间，然而，他从屏幕墙上仍然得到了自己以前从未见过的结果。“在这个范围非常明显，这种分辨率，细节和高度，所有的曲线似乎在这个地方汇合。”结果证明这些曲线表明混乱的条件。“我认为，这是这种屏幕墙的优势之一，可以让人们看到其他情况下很难看到的东西。”
These simulations and animations are just scratching the surface of the wall. Imagine what it would be like when we can get one of these babies at home.
这些模拟和动画只是体现了屏幕墙的表面。想象一下，如果我们家中都有能一面这样的屏幕墙，会是多么美妙。

CCTV9:游客蜂拥前往九寨沟
Visitors flock to Jiuzhaigou Valley
游客蜂拥前往九寨沟
Students here in China are making the most of their summer holidays, and Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan Province is once again proving a top destination.
Jiuzhaigou has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1992. Covering more than 72,000 hectares and with altitudes approaching 5,000 metres, the area comprises a series of diverse ecosystems with spectacular waterfalls. Some 140 bird species also inhabit the area, as well as a number of endangered plant and animal species, including the giant panda and the Sichuan takin.
So far this July, Jiuzhaigo has averaged more than 15,000 tourists per day. Over half of these are students on holiday with their families, and the scenery that awaits them is breath-taking.
Qianshan Moutain, in Northeast China's Liaoning Province, is another top destination. It takes its name from the legend that there are 999 peaks, which from a distance look like green lotuses in the sky. The geological formation is nearly four billion years old.
A national park covering about 125 square kilometers, Qianshan has a deeply religious culture, where Buddhism and Taoism coexist in harmony. Its compliment of religious structures includes nine palaces, five major Buddhist temples, and 12 thatched nunneries.
CCTV9视频:日本通过安全法案
Panel in Japan’s upper house approves security bills
日本通过安全法案
Japan's upper house will run a final vote on the security bills today. Earlier a committee in Japan's upper house of parliament has approved two controversial security bills, clearing the way for a full vote in the uppper house on the legislation that would allow troops to fight abroad for the first time since World War II.
Opposition lawmakers tried to physically prevent the panel's vote in chaotic scenes carried live on national television. The legislation has sparked huge protests in Tokyo and across Japan.
Lawmakers exchanged shouts as the opposition members tried every means to stop the ruling parties from voting on new security bills.
Japanese public anger mounted as the Diet sessions were carried out somewhat forcefully by the ruling parties.
Despite pouring down rain, thousands of people gathered in front of the Diet building, demanding prime Ministers Shinzo Abe to withdraw the security bills and step down.
People fear that the bills will enable the Japanese self defense force to be sent abroad in conflict zones and also lead to revising the pacifist constitution.
Tension increased between the ruling and oppositions lawmakers as the voting took place. Abe was not present, nonetheless the security package was approved.
"The constitution say Japan will not posse an army. The Self Defense Force is allowed in a limited capacity to defend the country. If government's present policy require Japan to have collective self defense, changing interpretation would not be enough," said Masaki Ina, Guest Professor of Constitutional Law, International Christian University.
"The government should let the people decide whether it needs to change the constitution to allow the collective self defense. It is unconstitutional to decide these issues this way."
Currently, under the new interpretation of the constitution, Japan can exercise limited and conditional collective self defense. The question now is whether Abe seeks to revise the constitution or to expand Japan's security role in the future.
"The Article 9 is not only about being pacifist, but also Japan's international pledge never to invade Asian countries again. If Abe wants to revise the Article 9, for collective self defense, then Japan should have something that can substitute for the pledge that it will not resort to aggressive act again," said Prof. Shojiro Sakaguchi, Hitotsubashi Universtiy.
Anger filled the streets, where thousands gathered in protest. Organizers say they will continue to demand the government to drop the security legislation.
