加州学生持枪制炸弹 |
| Police at a Los Angeles university campus may have prevented a tragedy when they detained a deranged student later found to have a shotgun and bomb-making ingredients in his dorm room, Reuters reported. David Everson, 22, was detained on Jan. 3 after a counselor alerted police at California State University, Northridge, that the student could be a danger. "He made direct threats to commit bodily harm or kill seven people," said Police Chief Anne Glavin. "They were all named." Police found the shotgun, along with ammunition, in Everson's room the same day they detained him. Everson was arrested upon his release from a mental health facility. Police went back with a search warrant the next day and found the bomb-making ingredients. On Friday, he pleaded not guilty to charges of possessing ingredients to make a bomb and having a firearm on campus. |
据路透社报道，洛杉矶一所大学的警察拘留一名精神失常的学生，后来在其宿舍发现一把手枪和制造炸弹的材料，警方认为他们可能制止了一起悲剧的发生。22岁的大卫•埃弗森1月3日被拘留，此前加州州立大学北岭分校的一名学校管理员曾向警方反映该学生十分危险。警察局长安妮•格拉文表示：“他直接向7人进行人身伤害和谋杀威胁，并列出了所有人的名字。” 埃弗森从精神病院出院后即被拘留。拘留当天，警方在他的宿舍里发现了手枪和弹药。第二天，警方拿着搜查证搜查了他的宿舍，发现了制造炸弹的材料。对于持有炸药制造材料和在校园持枪的指控，他并不认罪。 |
| 18 months' recovery for baby blues |
产后抑郁症持续一年半 |
| A poll of thousands of British women show that mothers of newly born children will spend 18 months on average to recover from what's called baby blues and start to "feel like a woman again," the Daily Mail reported. During that one-and-a-half-year period, sleepless nights, loss of independence and weight worries all contribute to women's crisis of confidence. A parenting advice website notes that although 18 months are the average, recovery for many women will take longer. |
