A US military tribunal Wednesday sentenced Osama bin Laden's former cook Ibrahim al Qosi to 14 years in prison, but he is expected to serve far less under the terms of an undisclosed plea bargain, Reuters reported. 50-year-old Qosi, who is from Sudan, pleaded guilty last month in a special court in Guantanamo Bay, to charges of conspiring with al Qaeda and providing material support for terrorism.

| High stress 'delays pregnancy' |
焦虑妇女难怀孕 |
| For the first time, a scientific study has shown that high stress levels may delay pregnancy, the BBC reported. The study, published in the journal Fertility and Sterility, measured 274 healthy women aged 18-40 planning a baby naturally. Women with the highest levels of alpha-amylase (an indicator of adrenalin levels) had about a 12% reduced chance of getting pregnant during their fertile days compared with those with the lowest levels of the marker. Experts suggest women preparing themselves for a healthy pregnancy should keep stress levels to a minimum. Relaxation techniques, counseling and even yoga and meditation are good choices. |
