一名女子企图劫持新西兰飞机 (Woman Attempts to Hijack New Zealand Plane)

一名持刀女子星期五在新西兰航空公司的一架班机上袭击两名飞行员，她要求飞往澳大利亚，并威胁要炸毁飞机。

这名女子被制服，受伤的飞行员仍然把飞机安全降落在克赖斯特彻奇。警察和急救人员迅速登上飞机，逮捕这名33岁的女子，并转移了六名未受伤的乘客。

在这架从布莱尼姆飞往克赖斯特彻奇的飞机上没有发现爆炸物。两名飞行员的伤势没有生命危险。

有关官员说，那名女子是索马里人。

她被控犯有劫机罪和故意伤人罪，并且将于星期六出庭。

在这架有19个乘客座位的飞机上，乘客舱和驾驶舱之间只用帘子隔开。

The woman was restrained and the wounded pilots were able to land the plane safely in Christchurch. police and emergency crews immediately boarded the plane to arrest the 33-year-old woman and evacuate the six uninjured passengers.

No explosives were found on the plane, which was on a flight from Blenheim to Christchurch. The pilots' injuries were not life threatening.

Officials say the woman is a native of Somalia.

She has been charged with hijacking and wounding with intent. She will appear in court Saturday.

Only curtains separated the cockpit from travelers on the 19 passenger seat plane.

法国总统就他给前妻发短信的声称状告杂志 (French President Sues Magazine Over Ex-Wife Text Message Claim)

法国总统尼古拉.萨尔科齐正在起诉一家法国新闻网站。在此之前，这家网站声称萨尔科齐在与前超级模特卡拉.布吕尼成婚之前，曾发短信给前妻塞西莉亚。

新观察家杂志网站报导说，萨尔科齐在给前妻的短信中写道：“如果你回来，我将取消婚礼”。萨尔科齐的律师说，这家网站捏造了整个故事。

萨尔科齐和前妻去年10月宣布离婚，他和布吕尼经过旋风式的恋爱之后于上星期结婚。

本星期早些时候，法国一家法庭命令廉价航空公司瑞安航空向萨尔科齐总统象征性支付1.5美元赔偿金，并向布吕尼支付8万8千美元赔偿金，理由是瑞安航空公司未经授权使用他们的照片在报纸上刊登广告。

French President Nicolas Sarkozy is suing a French news website after it claimed he sent a text message to his ex-wife Cecilia just before his marriage to former super-model Carla Bruni.

The website of the magazine Nouvel Observateur reported that Sarkozy had written to his former wife -- quote -- "if you come back, I'll call it all off." Mr. Sarkozy's attorney said the website fabricated the entire story.

Mr. Sarkozy and his former wife announced their divorce in October, and he married Bruni last week following a whirlwind romance.

Earlier this week, a French court ordered the budget airline Ryanair to pay a symbolic one-and-a-half dollar award to Mr. Sarkozy and 88-thousand dollars to Bruni for unauthorized use of their picture in a newspaper advertisement.
