They are trying to piece together a timeline of how he spent his six months in Russia. Right now there is no evidence, but there are gaps in the timeline which would indicate training. So right now they don't think he went there to train for some, you know, in some camp there. Looks like the radicalization was done in, it's a very run-of-the-mill traditional radicalization, which was done on the internet. There is another individual they think is involved, they calling him Michia. They are looking for him now. NPR's Dina Temple-Raston.
他们正试图拼凑出他在俄罗斯度过的那六个月的时间表。目前还没有任何证据，但是在时间表中存在空白，这可能是他接受训练的时间。但是目前，调查人员认为他并不是去那里的，你知道，一些露营活动接受训练的。他更像是受到了网络上传播的普通激进化思想的影响。调查人员还锁定了另一名可能涉案的人员，他们称其为 Michia。目前他们正在寻找这个人。NPR新闻，迪娜·坦普·拉斯顿报道。

There is more rain today in parts of the Midwest, where flood waters along the Mississippi river and many of its tributaries continue to rise.

The White House says it's willing to consider a bill that would give the administration more power to prevent air traffic controllers from being furloughed, but it also warns that kind of assistance to the Federal Aviation Administration would only be a band-aid approach at a time when sequestration is affecting vital programs government-wide. Automatic spending cuts kicked in when Republicans and Democrats could not reach a budget compromise.
