Ganges flushed for Hindu bathers


Some 70m devotees are expected over the 45-day festival India's Ganges river at the city of Allahabad has been flushed with fresh water from upstream to improve bathing for millions at a key Hindu festival. Some holy men, or sadhus, had threatened to boycott bathing in waters they considered too polluted.


Local official said: "We are trying to win them over. There is enough fresh and clean water in the Ganges and it is fit for bathing." Offerings cast into the river and waste and sewage dumped into it have polluted the river over many years.


(1st) flush - If you flush, your face goes red because you are hot or ill, or because you are feeling a strong emotion such as embarrassment or anger.

- When someone flushes a toilet after using it, they fill the toilet bowl with water in order to clean it, usually by pressing a handle or pulling a chain.  You can also say that a toilet flushes.

(2nd) win them over If you win someone over or win them round, you persuade them to support you or agree with you.

'Lost' producers discuss series' end


Makers of the tropical island drama "Lost" say they're talking with ABC executives about setting an end date for the series. There's no sense the finale is coming anytime soon. But knowing they have a deadline will help writers of the convoluted drama lay out how they want the story to end, producers said.


The producers, citing Fox's "The X-Files," said they didn't want to wear out their welcome. "That was a great show that probably ran two seasons too long," Cuse said. "That is a cautionary tale for us." The producers said that will be rectified right away for the season's second half as "Lost" goes back to the beach.


(1st) wear out their welcome 너무 오래 묵어 미움을 사다

If you say that someone wear out or outstays their welcome you mean that they stay somewhere longer than they are wanted or expected to.

(2nd) rectify If you rectify something that is wrong, you change it so that it becomes correct or satisfactory. 개정,수정,조정하다

* impose on ~를 위압하다 악용하다...

* hibernate 겨울잠 자다

* convolute 뒤얽힌 소용돌이의 둘둘말린

* cautionary 경계의 훈계의 담보의 보증의
