iPad热横扫全球,澳洲悉尼北部一间餐厅成为全澳洲第一间使用iPad菜单的餐厅。Global Mundo Tapas是位于North Sydney Rydges Hotel的餐厅,透过iPad上的菜单,可以可以看到图片,菜单上甚至还介绍哪种酒适合所点的餐点。透过iPad菜单,食客可以决定肉要几分熟,所喜欢的酱料。iPad菜单不只是对客户有意,餐厅方面可以透过iPad知道存货有多少,当一些菜或酒卖完时,它们会自动从iPad菜单上消失(我还真试过很多次点什么都已经卖完的状况)。
At a community meeting on Wednesday night, Bundanoon locals overwhelmingly supported the Australia-first ban on commercially bottled water, already agreed to by businesses in the town.
MELBOURNE: An Australian farmer was left stunned when he unearthed a man-shaped spud.
Retired orcharding consultant and farmer Ernie Crouch, 73, was digging spuds when he discovered the potato with two arms, two legs, a body, head and small nose. Sprouts stick out the top of spud’s head.
Crouch was amazed to see that the potato emerged intact after being lifted from the ground by his tractor. Crouch said, “He did have whiskers but they broke off”.
The spud is a Glenvale and the farmer has yet to decide whether the potato will end up as chips or used as seed.
More than 200,000 houses were left without power, and some without roofs, as suburban and country train services were severely disrupted and traffic restricted for up to three hours on two of Melbourne’s key arteries, the West Gate and Bolte bridges
