Supporters celebrate King's birthday outside hospital
泰国支持者庆祝国王87岁寿辰
Thousands of supporters flocked to a hospital in Bangkok Friday to wish King Bhumibol Adulydej a happy 87th birthday. Plans for a public appearance were cancelled on the advice of his doctors who said the King was not ready for public appearances. He underwent surgery to remove his gallbladder in October. Many hold the King in god-like reverence and said their spirits wouldn't be dampened whether he appeared in public or not.
周五,数千名支持者聚集在首都曼谷一家医院,庆祝国王普密蓬·阿杜德(Bhumibol Adulyadej)87岁寿辰 。由于医生表示国王的身体状况未做好参加公众活动的准备,原计划的公众亮相被取消 。10月份,国王接受了切除胆囊的手术 。许多人对国王都像神明般尊敬,无论国王是否出现在公众视野中,他们的精神都不会沮丧 。
(SOUNDBITE) (Thai) 37-YEAR OLD THEPWITOON CHIM-NGOG, SAYING: "It doesn't matter whether he is appearing in front of a public audience or not.I'm just happy that I am here to show my loyalty to him. I'm happy no matter where he is."
37岁的THEPWITOON CHIM-NGOG:“无论他是否出现在公众视野中都不重要 。只要能在这里向他表示忠诚我就很开心 。无论他是否在这里我都很开心 。”
The cancelled appearance has fuelled mounting concerns over the King's health and comes during a sensitive time for the country which only six months ago was overthrown in a military coup. King Bhumibol's last public appearance was in November.
取消的亮相让人们更加担忧国王的健康状况,而且时间非常敏感 。这个国家六个月前刚刚在军事政变中被推翻 。国王普密蓬上次在公众面前亮相还是11月份 。
Protests against police spread across U.S.
美国各地对警方的抗议不断蔓延
Protests heat up for a second night in cities across the U.S. over a grand jury decision not to indict a New York City police officer for the choking death of unarmed black man, Eric Garner. In New York, demonstrators converged in Times Square by the thousands... and blocked intersections at a number of other locations around Manhattan. Even as they were being loaded onto police vans demonstrators chanted the common rally cry "I can't breathe"... From New York to Chicago to Seattle demonstrators took to the streets.... sometimes disrupting traffic by blocking major highways. Othertimes, laying down in the middle of the street. The demonstrations are in protest of Wednesday's decision not to bring charges against white police officer Daniel Pantaleo. Last July, Pantaleo was attempting to arrest Eric Garner for allegedly selling cigarettes illegally on the streets of Staten Island. Pantaleo was trying to restrain Garner by putting his arm around his neck, but ending up choking him to death. During the incident witnesses said they heard Garner scream "I can't breathe". Thrusday's protests echo outrage sparked nine days when a different grand jury decided not to indict the white police officer who fatally shot a black teenager in Ferguson Missouri.
大陪审团决定对涉嫌锁喉杀死黑人男子埃里克·加纳(Eric Garner)的纽约市白人警察免于起诉后,美国各地城市的抗议活动不断升温,已连续进行了第二个晚上 。在纽约,数千名示威者聚集在时代广场,并堵塞了曼哈顿周围其他几个地点的交叉路口 。尽管被拉上警车,示威者们仍然高呼集会口号“我难以呼吸” 。从纽约到芝加哥到西雅图,示威者们都走向街头,有时堵塞重要的高速公路,扰乱交通 。其他时候甚至躺在道路中央 。示威活动是为了抗议周三决定的不起诉白人警察丹尼尔·潘塔莱奥(Daniel Pantaleo)的决定 。7月份,潘塔莱奥试图以在史泰登岛非法出售香烟罪拘捕埃里克·加纳(Eric Garner) 。潘塔莱奥试图勒住加纳的脖子,却导致嫌疑人心脏病发死亡 。在该事故中,目击者表示,他们听到加纳尖叫“我喘不上气了” 。周四的抗议活动与已经酝酿了9天的民众愤怒情绪相呼应 。另外一个大陪审团决定不起诉在密苏里州弗格森枪杀一名黑人青少年的白人警察 。

Help arrives in Sierra Leone. More than 175 Nigerian volunteers landed in the capital city Freetown Friday to join the fight against Ebola. Some will also help fill the gaps in overall medical coverage.

(SOUNDBITE)(English) TEAM LEADER OF AFRICAN UNION SUPPORT TO EBOLA OUTBREAK IN WEST AFRICA (ASEOWA) MISSION, DR. RICHARD SSEKITOLEKO, SAYING:"Some of them are coming to participate in the management of Ebola patients, but also some of them are still going to participate in the management of the other problems, for example high blood pressure, diabetes. This is because Ebola has sort of crippled those other sectors."
非洲联盟支持西非埃博拉疫情任务小组负责人RICHARD SSEKITOLEKO医生:“其中一些人参与对埃博拉病人的管理,另外一些人参与其他问题的管理,例如高血压,糖尿病 。这是因为埃博拉病毒导致其他部门瘫痪 。”
Volunteers who are going door to door in Sierra Leone say part of the challenge is still getting people to follow protocols.
逐门逐户拜访塞拉利昂居民的志愿者表示,部分挑战仍然是让人们遵循治疗方案 。
(SOUNDBITE) (English) EBOLA DOOR-TO-DOOR COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER, GEORGE FALLAH, SAYING: "Sometimes you visit them and they don't find bucket were they can wash their hands, some of them you ask say yes they are taking the preventive measures. Furthermore, you said someone not to touch dead body. He or she will tell you that no, as long as that person is my relative, I will touch the dead body."
逐门逐户拜访居民的埃博拉志愿者:“有时你探访他们,他们根本找不到洗手的桶,其中一些人说他们采取了预防措施 。此外,你说,不能触碰死者尸体,他们会说,不,如果死者是我的亲戚,我就会触碰他的遗体 。”
