The Israeli army has resumed full military operations in Gaza after its seven-hour humanitarian pause in some parts of the territory came to an end.

It's been relatively quiet in Gaza since the ceasefire came to an end. Yes, there have been Israeli air strikes; yes, dozens of Palestinian rockets have been fired from Gaza into Israel, but compared with the past few days, I think most people would say this counts as a lull in fighting. We have had comments from the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu; he has said that the operation here will continue until the security, as he says, of Israel citizens are guaranteed.

自停火协议结束后加沙地区相对平静，是的，以色列还在进行空袭；是的，数十枚巴勒斯坦火箭从加沙向以色列发射，但相对于过去几天，我想大多数人会说这算是战斗中的平静。我们刚得到以色列总理本杰明·本塔尼亚胡的评论，他说军事行动将继续进行，直到以色列公民的安全得到保障为止。

As part of the events to mark the 100th anniversary of Britain's entry into the First World War, lights are being been turned off across the country for the next hour.

为了纪念英国参加一战100周年，英国全国各地将在一小时后熄灯。政府要求民居、企业和公共建筑只亮一盏灯或点蜡烛。珍妮特·巴里报道。

The Lights-Out event was inspired by the words of the Foreign Secretary Sir Edward Grey who said on the eve of the First World War, "The lamps are going out all over Europe; we should not see them lit again in our life." Across the country, buildings will leave a single light or candle burning in a shared moment of reflection. When the lights come on again here at 11 pm local time it will be exactly 100 years since Britain officially entered the conflict.

熄灯活动是受到外交部长爱德华·格雷爵士在一战前言论的启发，他说，“欧洲各地的灯要熄灭了，我们一辈子都不要看到它们再亮起来。”英国各地的建筑都将只留一盏灯或点蜡烛来进行反思。在当地时间晚上11点灯再次点亮时，正好是英国正式加入一战的100周年。

里根总统时期在暗杀中受伤的白宫新闻秘书詹姆斯·布雷迪现已去世，终年73岁，Ragini Vaidyanathan在华盛顿回顾他的一生。

As Ronald Reagan's spokesman, James Brady was never meant to be part of the story until March 1981 when while traveling with the President, a gunman opened fire. President Reagan survived the assassination attempt, and Brady suffered a serious head wound which left him partially paralyzed, forcing him to use a wheelchair for the rest of his life. Those events led him to become an active anti-gun campaigner. A law which requires background checks on handgun purchases is named after him.

作为罗纳德·里根的发言人，詹姆斯·布雷迪从未成为关注的对象，直到1981年3月和总统一起旅行时，一名持枪者向他们开了枪。里根总统躲过这场暗杀，但布雷迪头部严重受伤并从此半身不遂，他只得在轮椅上过完下半生。这些事件使他成为积极的反枪人士，一条要求对手枪购买进行背景检查的法律就以他命名。
