1【World's narrowest house opens in Warsaw】华沙建世界上最窄房屋

TEXT:This is the world's narrowest house, located in Warsaw, Poland. Yes, the gap between the two buildings, it's a real house. When you enter through a door that's about as wide as the house itself, a staircase leads up to the 2nd floor of the residence. The structure is about 120 cm, or 47 inches at its widest point and 71 cm, or 28 inches at its narrowest. Feels restrictive? That's the intention, so invited guests will know what it feels like to live in a surrounding that restricts your every motion. The project's PR manager Maciej Kawinski has already spent a few days here and says he learned to adapt. Maciej Kawinski, saying (English) "You can get use to it, you know. The kitchen is extremely small, it's really small and not comfortable. I have bruises, you know, bruises on my head because of the shelf above the kitchen." Bruises from taking a shower and cooking? Not my idea of a dream house. But a string of artists will stay here to explore their surroundings, starting with Israeli writer, Edgar Keret.

3【Thousands of South African miners stage march】数千名南非矿工游行示威

TEXT:Thousands of striking miners at the world's No. 3 gold producer in South Africa defy orders to return to work. Management at the AngloGold Ashanti mine have threatened to fire the 12,000 striking workers, who are refusing to go back until they have a pay raise in hand. MINER, ROGER LETSWALO SAYING: "We demanded R18,500 from the management and then for how much we will settle, that is going to be the outcome of the, of the, of the negotiations now." Rival bullion producer Harmony Gold is using similar tactics, promising to fire strikers if they do not return by Thursday. South African miners have staged several large-scale protests in recent months, calling for better pay and conditions. The massive strikes have hurt the country's reputation abroad and resulted in two credit downgrades.
