time-out, author, novelist, ‘cessation of hostilities’


United States, Russia and other countries have agreed on ‘cessation of hostilities’ in ‪#‎Syria‬’s civil war. Watch Secretary of State John F. Kerry's statement:


記者薩菲(Michael Safi)解釋,停止衝突(cessation of hostilities)意指留守於戰場的勢力範圍內,暫時停止暴力行動,有機會帶來進一步的和平發展。停火(ceasefire)則通常是一個更長遠的和平或協商進程的一部分,可能包括聯合國觀察員的監督,或進一步設置非戰區,通常也伴隨前線武力集結的禁令。目前宣布的停戰,在規模與野心上都是較為保守的,也不清楚延續時間的長短。... 


Then the inscription continues, implying rather mysteriously, and incorrectly, that D.H. Lawrence is buried here, stating:-
Also David Herbert Lawrence,
Beloved Son Of The Above,
Novelist, Poet and Painter.
Born Sept. 11th. 1885
Died at Vence, Mar. 2
nd. 1930.
Unconquered
