The attack comes at the start of Israel's second week of air assaults. Today leaflets from Israeli defense forces litter the Gaza in skies, urging residents to leave their homes for their safety. Israeli tanks are waiting at the border and a ground attack on the Palestinian territory could start anytime. [/size][/align][/align][align=left][align=left][font=宋体][size=9pt]在最近的一攻击中，以色列空袭了加沙的一座清真寺，造成了至少[/size][/font][size=9pt]9[/size][font=宋体][size=9pt]人死亡。这是以色列的第二周空袭的开始。今天，来自以色列自卫队的宣传单漫布了加沙的天空，催促当地居民离开家园，以策安全。以色列坦克在边境虎视眈眈，对巴勒斯坦领土的地面进攻蓄势待发。[/size][/font][size=9pt][/size][/align][/align][align=left][align=left][size=9pt]In the meantime, protests and demonstrations continue around the world over the conflict. This morning thousands came out of London to march for an end to the Israeli military action. The march eventually ending in Trafalgar Square follows a week of protest outside the Israeli Embassy. Several other events are planned today by different groups around the world. [/size][/align][/align][align=left][align=left][font=宋体][size=9pt]与此同时，对这场冲突的抗议和示威在世界各地此起彼伏。今天清晨，数千人走出伦敦，以游行希望结束以色列的军事行动。此次游行在特拉法尔加广场结束，随后还会在以色列大使馆周围举行一周的抗议。今天，世界各地的不同组织还计划了其他几起游行。[/size][/font][size=9pt][/size][/align][/align][align=left][align=left][size=9pt]President Bush says Hamas is to blame for instigating the violence in Gaza.

[/size][/align][/align][align=left][align=left][font=宋体][size=9pt]布什总统谴责说，哈马斯煽动了加沙的暴力活动。在其每周讲话中，总统再次谴责哈马斯军队对以色列开展的暴力活动。他还说，自从哈马斯暴力接收以来，加沙的巴勒斯坦人民的生活状况更加恶化了。[/size][/font][size=9pt][/size][/align][/align][align=left][align=left][size=9pt]The president-elect will have that crisis and several others to deal with after he takes over the White House. But first Barack Obama and his family have to move to Washington, they'll do that on Sunday. They won't be staying at the usual spot of transition, the Blair House. It's all booked up according to the Bush administration. Instead, the president-elect and the family will stay in the Hay-Adams Hotel just across the street. [/size][/align][/align][align=left][align=left][font=宋体][size=9pt]新当选总统接手白宫之后，将要处理这项危机和其他的事务。但首先，[/size][/font][font=宋体][size=9pt]巴拉克·奥巴马和家人得前往华盛顿，他们将在周日动身。他们不会待在通常的中转第，布莱尔大厦。布什政府说，那已经被订购一空了。因此，新当选总统和家人会待在海亚当斯饭店，正好位于白宫的对面。[/size][/font][size=9pt][/size][/align][/align][align=left][align=left][size=9pt]Celebrations for NASA today, the Mars rovers are spending their 5th year on the Red Planet.

Good morning from the CNN Center in Atlanta. I'm Reggie Aqui. Here's what's happening NOW IN THE NEWS.
We begin with President Bush who gave what would likely be the last news conference of his presidency today. Bush spent time thanking members of the media for their work during his two terms. The president also talked about the possibility of requesting the rest of the bailout money on president-elect Barack Obama's behalf.
今天，总统布什举行了可能是其在位期间的最后一场记者招待会。其间，布什谢谢了媒体朋友，在其两任期间所做的工作。他还谈到了新当选总统申请剩余的援助资金的可能性。
"I told him that if he felt that he needed the 350 billion, I would be willing to ask for it. If he feels like it needed to happen on my watch. The best course of action, of course, is to convince enough members of the senate to vote positively for the request, eh, and, you know, that's all I can share with because that's all I know. "
我和他谈过，如果他觉得需要3500亿美元，我会乐意去申请。如果他觉得需要我在任的时候发生。当然，最好的方法，就是说服足够多的议会成员积极为申请投票。我也只知道这么多。
Now we're gonna turn to a problem that the president-elect will then hear: the latest developments in the Middle East. That's where Israel continues to launch a new round of air strikes in Gaza that despite a UN call for an immediate ceasefire. The Israeli military says it did pause its assault to allow residents to pick up humanitarian supplies. Palestinian medical sources say more than 900 people have been killed since the Israeli offensive began.
现在我们转到总统随后会听到的议题：中东地区的最新进展。尽管联合国呼吁立即停火，以色列仍然对加沙发动了新一轮的空袭。以军称他已经暂停进攻，居民可以获得人道物资。巴方医疗组织声称自从以军开始进攻以来，加沙已经超过900人死亡。
Russian and natural gas should begin flowing again in Europe soon. Russia says it will resume deliveries after Ukraine dropped added conditions to an EU-brokered deal to monitor the pipelines. But the dispute has left parts of the Balkans without heat during a bitterly cold winter.
欧洲不久就会再次得到俄罗斯的天然气供应。欧盟作为中间人，乌克兰降低了条件，愿意监控管道，俄罗斯称将继续供应。但由于这场争执，部分巴尔干半岛居民不得不在没有暖气的条件下，度过了这个及其寒冷的冬季。
Disgraced financier Bernard Madoff could find out today if he's going to be moved to a jail cell. A judge will decide if his bail will be revoked for allegedly trying to hide some of his wealth. Madoff is currently under house arrest in his apartment in New York. He's being investigated for allegedly running a 50-billion-dollar Ponzi scheme.
无耻的金融家本拉登.麦道夫今天将会知道，他是否将被送往囚室。一名法官将决定是否撤回他的保释，据称其试图隐藏他的部分财产。目前，麦道夫被软禁在其纽约的公寓内。据称，他导演了500亿美元的旁氏骗局，正在接受调查。

All right we continue to keep a close eye on those investigators who try to recover the flight dead record from the hat marched plane, that crashed in the Hudson on Thursday, you may remember. They are planning to fish the wreckage out of the icy river using giant cranes later on this afternoon. Divers are also searching the bottom of the river for one of the plane’s engines which is believed to a fallen-off during the crash.
The prime ministers of Ukraine and Russia are meeting in Moscow, and hope to resume gas shipment from Russia to Europe. The dispute of the pricing between the two countries has left millions of people in Europe without gas to heat up their homes. The crucial gas supply has been cut off now for eleven days.

The US military says six service members were wounded, three of them seriously injured. One American civilian was also injured in that blast, two Afghan civilians died in the blast.
