(单词翻译)

At approximately one o'clock this afternoon,an Asian male entered the Discovery Building in Silver Spring. He had what we believe to be explosive devices strapped1 to his front and back. He also had a handgun. There are reports that we've not confirmed yet that he did fire a shot when he came in. He took three people hostage near the lobby area of the entrance to the building. At one point,the suspect, it is reported that he pulled out a handgun that he came in with and pointed2 it at one of the hostages. It's unconfirmed now whether he actually fired the weapon or not, but at that point our tactical units moved in, they shot the suspect. The suspect is deceased.There were three hostages. All the hostages are safe and are out of the building.

 

There are going to be extremists and rejectionists who, rather than seeking peace, are going to be seeking destruction. And the tragedy that we saw yesterday where people were gunned down on the street by terrorists who are purposely trying to undermine these talks, is an example of what we're up against.But I want everybody to be very clear: The United States is going to be unwavering in its support of Israel's security.

 

It's a very impressive storm. It has a very tight eye right now. Didn't have a very good eye at all yesterday. Much more compact storm again. when an eye gets very small, this spin gets bigger, stronger,faster. Because the hurricane basically, bringing its arms in. And as the arms come in, the middle of the eye gets more dangerous. The eye walls get more dangerous.It is still not turning. That is the line that it is on right now.So without any turn, without any deflection, this thing makes landfall somewhere between Myrtle Beach and Jacksonville. Don't believe that's going to happen. I do believe that there will be turn. Every computer model says turn, but so have they been saying that for ten days. So that's why, get rid of this map. That's why the parts of North Carolina into Virginia, have either hurricane watches, tropical storm watches or right here, hurricane warnings in effect.
