Hillary Clinton returns to Iowa amid speculation over 2016 bid
希拉里重返愛荷華 不確定是否競選總統
Hillary Clinton is back in Iowa. It's her first visit to the Hawkeye State since her third-place finish in the state's 2008 Democratic presidential primary. CLINTON "HELLO IOWA!" She's headlining Senator Tom Harkin's annual "Steak Fry". He's retiring after nearly 40 years in the Senate. But Clinton's upstaging her host -- amid speculation that the former Secretary of State may be eyeing a second run for the White House. NATS CLINTON "I'M BACK!" Iowa, of course, is where prospective presidential contenders have long gauged their campaign prospects.
希拉里·克林頓重返愛荷華州。這是她在2008年民主黨總統初選中以第三名宣告結束之后首次訪問鷹眼州。克林頓“愛荷華，你好！”在參議員哈金(Tom Harkin)一年一度的炸牛排大會中擔任主要發言人。他在參議院服務近40年之后退休。但是克林頓非常搶鏡——有人猜測這位前國務卿可能會第二次競選，入主白宮。希拉里·克林頓說：“我回來了！”當然，總統選舉候選人向來都以愛荷華州類衡量自己的前景。
SOUNDBITE: HILLARY CLINTON SAYING: "I've got a few things on my mind these days...(cheers)… It is true that I'm thinking about it (cheers)."
希拉里·克林頓：“這些天一些事情一直在我的心頭徘徊。我確實是在思考這個問題。”
For weeks, the "Ready for Hillary" super PAC with its deep pockets has been rallying attention to the steak fry. It's been wooing Iowans and offering to shuttle in for free college students from across the state. NATS STAR SPANGLED BANNER Clinton recently says she'll announce early next year whether she plans to run again. Analysts point to her shaky showing in the state in 2008, saying Iowa was where the presumptive Democratic candidate ultimately lost her frontrunner status.
幾周來，“為希拉里做準備”超級政治行動委員會(Super PAC)一直不斷造勢，吸引人們對炸牛排大會的關注。該活動懇求愛荷華人免費運送全州大學生。克林頓最近表示，她將于明年年初宣布是否再次競選總統。分析人員指出她在2008年競選中在該州的表現，稱愛荷華州就是原本應該是民主黨候選人的希拉里失去領先地位的地方。

British queen makes first public comment on Scotland independence vote
英國女王首次針對蘇格蘭獨立公投公開評論
The campaigns for and against Scottish independence are heating up with just days to go before the highly anticipated vote. In Edinburgh, the "NO" campaigners waved British flags and sang God Save the Queen. Queen Elizabeth has been largely silent on the matter until Sunday when she reportedly commented on it after a morning church service near her Balmoral estate in Scotland. The Times newspaper says she told someone in the crowd -- quote -- I hope people will think very carefully about the future -- unquote.
萬眾矚目的投票已進入倒計時，支持和反對蘇格蘭獨立的競選活動已經進入白熱化。在愛丁堡，反對派陣營揮舞著英國國旗，高唱“上帝拯救女王”。關于該問題，伊麗莎白女王一直保持沉默，直到周日。據報道，她在蘇格蘭Balmoral城堡外參加了教堂早上的祈禱活動后發表了評論。時報表示，他告訴人群，“我希望人們能夠謹慎考慮將來的問題。”
That sentiment was echoed by Labour M-P Alister Darling -- who's leading the "Better Together" effort. "What we are saying is if you've got any doubt about this then don't do it. You wouldn't do it on any personal decision you would make and this decision isn't just for you. It's for your family. It's for your country. Which is why we think people will say "no thanks" on Thursday."
“在一起更好”領袖，工黨代表阿利斯泰爾·達林回應了這種說法。“我們所說的是，如果你們存在任何疑慮，就不要這樣做。你不能僅僅因個人決定而這樣做，這個決定不僅僅是關于你個人的，而且是關乎家人的，是關乎國家的。所以，我們認為人們在周四的投票中應該反對獨立。”
"Yes" campaigners staged one of their biggest rallies in Glasgow, Scotland's second largest city. Scottish national party leader Alex Salmond was all smiles as he posed for selfies with independence supporters. He accused the other side of fear mongering.
支持獨立陣營在蘇格蘭第二大城市格拉斯哥發起了最大的游行活動。蘇格蘭國家黨領袖薩爾蒙德(Alex Salmond)與獨立派支持者一起拍照時一直面帶微笑。他指控其他黨派害怕改變。
"So we've got big battalions trotted out, organized by Downing Street, to say the seven plagues of Egypt will descend on Scotland on Friday if you vote 'yes' on Thursday. But I think people in Scotland are now of an attitude that no, this is a prosperous nation, they want it to be a just society and that is why this joyful, liberating and empowering campaign is moving its way forward.'
“唐寧街組織了很大的陣營，聲稱如果你在周四投贊成票，周五，埃及式的七個麻煩就會降臨到蘇格蘭身上。但是我認為蘇格蘭人民有自己的態度，他們認為不會發生這種情況。這是一個繁榮昌盛的民族，他們想要成為公平正義的社會，所以這個令人歡欣的，自由的，強大的活動正在不斷進展的原因。”
Polls show the vote is split nearly evenly down the middle, but with a large number of voters still undecided, leaving many people on edge. "We are all biting our nails down to the knuckles." More than four million people have registered to vote in the referendum.
民意調查顯示，支持和反對的人數幾乎勢均力敵，但是由于許多選民還未作出決定，他們還在左右搖擺。“我們都在猶豫不決，非常糾結。”超過400萬人已經注冊參加全民公投。
