French reshuffle after poll rout
法国总统奥朗德重组内阁
French President Francois Hollande named his new prime minister within hours of local election results that gave his Socialist party a hammering. In comes centrist Interior Minister Manuel Valls,known for his pro-business ideas and dashing style. Out goes Jean-Marc Ayrault, whose government was accused of amateurism and paralysing policy splits. The poll saw the Socialists lose control of more than 150 towns to the centre-right UMP and 11 to the far right National Front. There was also a record number of abstentions. Dominique Moisi of the French Institute for International Relations says it's a clear message to Hollande and his party.
法国地方选举结果出炉，执政党社会党遭遇惨败，几个小时后，总统奥朗德任命新总理。即将上台的是中间派人物，内政部长瓦尔(Manuel Valls)，他以支持商业的理念和锐意进取的风格著称。原总理让·马克埃罗(Jean-Marc Ayrault)将下台。他领导的政府被指控业余主义和导致瘫痪的政策分裂主义。地方选举显示社会党失去了对超过150个城镇的控制，落入中右翼政党UMP（人民运动联盟）手中，11个城镇落入极右翼国民阵线手中。而弃权选民也达到前所未有的数量。法国国际关系研究所的Dominique Moisi表示，这向奥朗德和他的政党传递了非常明确的信息。
(SOUNDBITE)(English) DOMINIQUE MOISI, SENIOR ADVISOR AT FRENCH INSTITUTE FOR INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS, SAYING: "It was a debacle as the left itself called the result of the election and it proved a rejection of the president, a rejection of the government, a rejection of his policy, it combines the personal and the direction, and so the margin of manoeuvring of Francois Hollande is in fact extremely slim."
Dominique Moisi，法国国际关系研究所资深顾问：“就像左翼党派自己说的，选举结果非常令人崩溃，这表明了民众对总统的否决，对政府的否决，对奥朗德政策的否决，不管是人格还是政策方向。所以，奥朗德的操纵空间已经非常小。”
The incoming prime minister is expected to present plans for a slimmed-down government team before Hollande heads off to an international summit in Brussels on Wednesday.
奥朗德启程前往布鲁塞尔参加周三的国际峰会之前，即将上台的总理预期将提出缩减政府规模的计划。
Toxic contaminants a threat under mudslide muck

As if heavy downpours and thick mud weren't enough to deal with. Recovery teams are now facing another dangerous challenge - toxic contaminants. Sewage, propane, household solvents and other chemicals lie underneath mud and rubble. And special measures are helping to protect hundreds of workers at the scene of Washington state's devastating mudslide:
似乎倾盆大雨和洪大的泥石流还不是最糟糕的。救援队现在面临又一个危险的挑战——有毒污染物。泥浆和废墟下掩埋着污物，丙烷，家用溶剂和其他化学物质。有关部门采取了特别措施，帮助保护华盛顿州灾难性的泥石流现场的数百名工作人员。
(SOUNDBITE) (English) DIVISION SUPERVISOR FOR THE EASTERN INCIDENT MANAGEMENT TEAM, STEVE HARRIS, SAYING: "Hazardous material staff on scene. And also we have decontamination facilities set up.Everybody that goes out to the incident scene, that gets out of the vehicle, has to be decontaminated when they leave the scene. So there are procedures set in place."
东部事故管理团队部门主管STEVE HARRIS：“现场到处都是有害的物质。我们也安排了净化设施。每个前往事故现场的人，每个走出车辆的人在离开现场之前都要进行净化。所以我们已经采取了预防措施。”
The official death toll stood at 21 on Monday, and 30 people are still unaccounted for. An ongoing recovery mission with a unique set of challenges:
周一，官方通报的死亡数字为21人，仍有30人失踪。持续进行的救援任务还面临一系列挑战：
(SOUNDBITE) (English) DIVISION SUPERVISOR FOR THE EASTERN INCIDENT MANAGEMENT TEAM, STEVE HARRIS, SAYING: "There's a lot of work to be done yet -- a lot of work. In places, up to 70 feet deep."
东部事故管理团队部门主管STEVE HARRIS：“还有许多工作没有完成——非常多的工作。废墟深度达70英尺。”
Despite nine days of recovery efforts, no one has been pulled out alive and no signs of life have been detected since the day of the slide.
尽管救援行动已经进行了9天，自泥石流发生以来，还没有生还者获救，也没有检测到任何生命迹象。
