TEXT:Yemeni officers run to help their fallencomradesafter they hear a large explosion during a military parade rehearsal c*JCgc%&)@。Scores were killed by the blast caused by a suicide bomber, dressed in army uniform. More than 90 people were killed and 60 wounded ... and the death toll is rising. Officers were horrified by the scene: "We deplore this criminal act, this is a massacre. We were standing in the military parade, getting ready for the next stage, when we suddenly heard a strong explosion, and we saw blood and legs flying everywhere, arms and legs flying in the air. The information we have from the hospital is that there are between 80 and 100 casualties, including both dead and injured." Military sources say Yemen's defence minister and chief of staff were present, but were unhurt in the blast. The explosioncoincided witha U.S.-backed offensive against al-Qaeda-linked militants in the south, which has seen heavy fighting over the weekend. The parade was set to be part of Yemen's national day celebration scheduled for Tuesday to commemorate the unification of the north and south. Jessica Gray, Reuters

2.【Investors dislike Facebook on day 2】Facebook上市第二天股票大跌

TEXT:Wall Street's attitude towards Facebook seems to have quickly turned from like to dislike. Shares of the social media network opened lowered on its second day of trade, sinking as low as $33, or 13 percent, a share by mid-session. Underwriters who helped prop up the stock on the first day of trade were absent this time around. There are also questions as to whether Friday's chaotic debut by the Nasdaq created the environment for the stock to fall further. But Joseph Foudy of the NYU Stern School of Business says he thinks the drop has more to do with investorsentimentabout this specific stock. "The fact that it has gone down in price is purely a reflection of theinitial offeringprice and the fact that it was so rich. The company is valued at something like 75, 100 times earnings and we really have no indication that it's going to be able to earn that kind of revenue that will justify that valuation." Trading continues to be frantic as investors try to figure out what's the right price for Facebook shares. More than 52 million shares traded hands in just 15 minutes, and that's on top of the massive trading volume seen in Friday's debut. Conway Gittens, Reuters

3【Man gets magnetic implants to hold iPod】男子手植磁體掛iPod

TEXT:New Jersey tattoo artist and piercing professional David Hurban prides himself on being different. But nothing sets him apart more than the four magnetic metal studs he had implanted in his wrist to secure his iPod. David Hurban, tattoo artist, saying : "In today's world, everybody has already done everything twice, you know what I mean. Everyone's looking for the next thing and this is something no one has ever done before. Whole world...how many people are in the world? First person." The device can play music and functions as a watch, without any straps or bands, giving a whole new meaning to the concept - hand's free. Kilmeny Duchardt, Reuters.

4.【Vogue's worst selling cover ever featured Adele】雜志Vogue稱阿黛爾是最糟糕的推銷者

BRIEF:The October 2011 British Vogue cover featuring Adele is the worst seller of all time, this according to the UK Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman. She said that "Adele is the most popular woman in the world, but one of the worst sellers we've ever had." She was also featured on the March 2012 issue of American Vogue, but no word from US editor Anna Wintour on how those sales were.

三《奧巴馬最新講話》選自The White House 白宮
【Remarks by the President at ISAF Meeting on Afghanistan】阿富汗ISAF會議上，奧巴馬發言

THE PRESIDENT:Well, good morning, everyone. And for those who are joining us for the first time, welcome to Chicago. I was just hearing from a few folks who are not NATO members that they had fun on the town last night. Hopefully, no stories in the press. (Laughter.) We come together as 50 nations -- NATO allies and partners -- that make up the International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan. I want to welcome the presence of President Karzai, as well as officials from central Asia and Russia -- nations that have an important perspective and that continue to provide critical transit for ISAF supplies. The presence of so many leaders and nations illustrates once again that this is a truly international mission, and that’s because the region and the world have a profound interest in an Afghanistan that is stable, that is secure, and that is not a source of attacks on other nations. And today, as always, our thoughts are with our brave forces who are serving in this vital mission. Two years ago, in Lisbon, our nations agreed on a framework for transition in Afghanistan that would allow us to responsibly wind down the war. We agreed that this transition to Afghan lead for security would begin in 2011 and that it would conclude in 2014. At the same time, we said that we would seek a long-term partnership with Afghanistan and the Afghan people. Over the past two years, we’ve made important progress. Our forces broke the Taliban’s momentum. More Afghans are reclaiming their communities. Afghan security forces have grown stronger. And the transition that we agreed to in Lisbon is well underway. This past week we saw more progress. We very much welcomed President Karzai’s announcement to the third group of areas to begin transition. This means that 75 percent of the Afghan people live in areas where Afghan forces will be moving into the lead. Today, we’ll decide the next phase of the transition -- the next milestone. We’ll set a goal for Afghan forces to take the lead for combat operations across the country in 2013 -- next year -- so that ISAF can move to a supporting role. This will be another step toward Afghans taking full lead for their security as agreed to by 2014 when the ISAF combat mission will end. Today is also an opportunity to ensure our hard-won progress is preserved. The Strategic Partnership Agreement that President Karzai and I signed in Kabul ensures that as Afghans stand up they will not stand alone. Today, we can agree on NATO’s long-term relationship with Afghanistan beyond 2014, including our support of Afghan security forces. So we have a lot of work to do. Again, I want to thank all of my fellow leaders and our partners for being here. Our nations and the world have a vital interest in the success of this mission. And I am confident, because of the leadership represented here as well as the leadership of our outstanding armed forces, that we can advance that goal today and responsibly bring this war to an end.
