再來原稿比較: 男子柔道73公斤級的決賽豋場,身穿藍衣的是亞塞拜然選手Elnur Mammadli,另一邊身穿白衣,則是來自南韓,年僅19歲的選手王棋春,他在去年的世界錦標賽中經擊敗過亞塞拜然選手。亞塞拜然的Mammadli今年則曾經贏得在德國舉行的柔道超級世界盃(Super World Cup),所以這場決賽應該是雙方實力相當的一場比賽。令人意外的是,比賽幾秒鐘就結束了,亞塞拜然選手開始就以壓倒性的一本勝贏得比賽,而南韓對手還不敢相信發生了什麼事,而從贏家的表現看來,亞塞拜然的Mammadli自己也感到出乎意料,又驚又喜。全場觀眾歡聲雷動,為20歲的亞塞拜然選手如此快狠準的贏得比賽高聲歡呼,而選手臉上的神情也清楚的表現這一切。

從FT的Mrs. Moneypenny因為Chelsea Flower Show ,到許久以前The Block的Jamie Durie,就這樣一篇文章連了起來......,而Tyler Brule這禮拜在"神遊"
The hottest thing at this year’s show was not a garden, but a gardener. My divorced girlfriend found me pausing to draw breath between CEOs and insisted that I accompany her to see the Australian garden. As her company was sponsoring a (different) garden she had been there all afternoon showing it to the Queen, the press and sundry others. She had therefore also had a chance to spot other highlights of the flower show. I explained that I wasn’t really there to see the gardens. No, she explained, it was not the garden that she wanted me to inspect but the garden designer.
Just to shut her up I followed DG to this garden, where two men were waiting to receive visitors. I marched up to them and started to explain that I was there because my friend wanted me to meet the handsomest man at the show, and please could they tell me which of them it was so that I could shake his hand and then get on with my networking. I got about halfway through that before I looked into the eyes of Jamie Durie and realised why I was there.
Now, as I explained to him, I had never heard of Jamie Durie. I am not interested in gardening and although I visit Australia and the US reasonably regularly I have no idea who is presenting TV gardening shows in these countries. I have also never watched the Oprah Winfrey show, where Jamie appeared to some acclaim. We have a version of Jamie Durie in the UK, Alan Titchmarsh – though I can’t imagine my 40-something girlfriends salivating over him in the way DG was over Jamie. Neither can I imagine Alan Titchmarsh ever working as a male stripper, as Jamie did in his youth. He led the Manpower revue, an Australian version of the Chippendales, before setting up his garden design company in 1996. He is serious eye candy, and also very entertaining to talk to, if a bit young for me (he was 38 last Tuesday). Plus, as HRH the Duke of Edinburgh discovered, he knows a thing or two about plants.
Jamie’s fellow garden host at the time I met him was Julian Brady, the general manager of his company, Patio. Julian, if you are reading this, you are not bad-looking either, but you need to update the awards on your website. Jamie’s garden won a gold medal at Chelsea.

The Block第一季在台灣的旅遊生活頻道(或其前身)播了至少三、四次,而我至少看了兩次,並且怨嘆為啥沒播第二季,到澳洲玩耍還買了原聲帶喔(here come's anothor one...La La La...),不過很有自知之明的沒有買DVD回來積灰塵
Michael O'Leary: (關於冬季停飛飛機以減低運能) ...the important thing is that's not due to higher oil prices, it's due to very high airport cost. In place regulated monopoly like Stansted and Dublin where you have idiot regulator rubber-stamping price increases in the face of all economic reality. We are looking forward to the Competition Commission report later this year which I think will recommend the breakup of BAA monopoly. And it's the the other side of the high oil prices, high oil price does focus on the industry, on some of these crazy costs: monopoly airports - they are gone; all this environmental taxation rubbish that has been prated on and about by European Commission last year - now they gotta deal with the reality of bankrupt airlines all over Europe. I think everybody has seen the end of this environmental tittle-tattle and frankly I'm delighted.
Louisa Bojesen: That would be one view of that, I have a lot of...
Becky Quick: Julia, what do you hedge? I've heard people hedging chickens before, but beyond that, I mean can you hedge dairy pricess, oil prices?
Julia Stewart: Sure, you can hedge oil, which is a big deal for us, you can hedge some of the protein, it really... to be candid with you, in the case of IHOP, when you have wheat batter, we have wheat, we've accomadated pricing, we've been able to do that, it's really been smart for us. Now you know you can't do that forever, but I think the timing and the sequecing has really been in our favor.
Joe Kernen: Can you hedge those little sausages that go into the little pigs in the blacket you make at the IHOP, Julia? ...
Julia Stewart: Ha ha ha, you can certainly try!

Joe Kernen:... What do you mean by world's largest full service? Yam is the biggest I think, isn't it? And then it's the McDonald's, isn't it?
Julia Stewart: They may be big in fast food, but we are the largest in world in term of sit-down full service restaurant.
Carl Quintanilla: Full service, meaning you serve...
Becky quick: Meaning a waitress come to...
Julia Stewart: Right, right...
Joe Kernen: OK, and largest in portion I think...
Joe Kernen: Tough interview for me to sit through... I'm thinking of the menu with the IHOP, you just keep turning, and the pictures
Carl Quintanilla: Yeah...I want that...that
Joe Kernen: Their liminated pictures, and you just keep turning, and there's more, and you turn again, and there's more, and there's crepes, there's strawberries...
Carl Quintanilla: ...the waitress is like "are you ready to order now, sir, or should I give you a couple of more minutes?"
