★★★★★★★★★★★★
Twenty-three-year-old Yang, of the Paiwan indigenous people, and from Taichung City, previously won silver medals at the 2019 Asian Pacific Judo Championships held in the United Arab Emirates, the 2019 World Judo Championships in Tokyo, Japan, the 2020 Judo Grand Slam in Düsseldorf, Germany, and the 2021 Judo World Masters in Doha, Qatar.

23歲的楊勇緯是來自台中市的排灣族原住民,先前曾在阿聯舉辦的2019年亞太柔道錦標賽、2019年日本 東京世界柔道錦標賽、2020 年德國 杜塞道夫柔道大滿貫和 2021 年卡達 杜哈的柔道世界大師賽獲得銀牌。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
While a gold medal would have broken a long streak of silver, and Yang was visibly disappointed at the end of the bout with 28-year-old Takato, Yang’s youth puts gold well within his reach in the future. By the time Yang reached the podium he had overcome his upset to Takato. After being awarded the silver medal, Yang picked it up and rubbed it on his cheek. “I wanted to feel it, this is the Olympic medal,” Yang said.

• overcome his upset 克服敗局(的失落)
• upset (n.) 混亂;麻煩;爆冷門; 翻倒;傾覆

雖然(若在這次獲得)金牌會打破長期以來的銀牌紀錄,楊勇緯在與 28 歲的高藤直壽的比賽回合結束時明顯感到失望,但楊勇緯還年輕,在未來依舊相當可能獲得金牌。楊勇緯上台領獎的時候,他已經克服了自己對敗給高藤直壽的失落。拿到銀牌後,楊勇緯將它拿起來,在自己的臉頰上蹭了蹭。「這是奧運獎牌,我想感受一下,」楊勇緯說。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Yang’s achievement drew praise from all quarters in Taiwan with President Tsai Ing-wen taking to social media to say “Congratulations to Yang Yung-wei on your silver medal in judo! You’ve made your fellow Taiwanese proud, & won Team Taiwan’s first medal at Tokyo 2020.”
• draw praise from 獲得~的好評
• all quarters 各界、各處、四面八方
• take to social media 使用社交媒體、在社交媒體上說
• make sb proud 使~驕傲
楊勇緯的成績獲得台灣各界一致好評,蔡英文總統在社交媒體上說:「恭喜楊勇緯獲得柔道銀牌!你讓台灣人感到自豪,並在 2020 年東京奧運上贏得了台灣隊的第一枚獎牌。」

A key strategy in our COVID-19 battle is regular testing. With the recent cases at markets and food centres, residents living near some of the hotter spots can collect Antigen Rapid Test kits to test themselves.
Visited the collection points at Teck Ghee and Cheng San today. Many residents were there to get their kits. Some told me they wanted to make sure they and their families were OK. Glad they are doing their part to protect themselves and the community.
Unfortunately, the KTV and Jurong Fishery Port clusters have spread to many markets and food centres. That is why the Multi-Ministry Taskforce announced this afternoon that we will revert to Phase 2 (Heightened Alert) from this Thursday, 22 July, until 18 August. Dining-in will again cease and group sizes will be limited to 2 people (https://str.sg/33Y9).
This retightening will help slow the spread of cases. We hope to avoid multiple subclusters breaking out around each market and food centre, like what happened around the Bukit Merah View Market. It will buy us time to get more people fully vaccinated, especially not yet vaccinated seniors, who are most at risk.
We are all disappointed by this step back, but COVID-19 is a formidable foe. We have to feel our way forward, and be prepared for setbacks along the way.
Overall we are making good progress. Three quarters of us have had at least our first jab, while half have completed both jabs. We are much safer now than six months ago. In 4 weeks’ time, if all goes well, our vaccination coverage should be much higher, and we should be able to relax the measures. We are not quite in the new normal yet, but steadily getting there. – LHL

🌻Morgan Stanley Mid-year Investor Outlook: A tricky transition
https://www.morganstanley.com/ideas/midyear-2021-global-markets-outlook
🌻在您投資生涯中, 有沒有一些觀念讓您受用很多?
下面這位投資名人的好觀念影響我很深. 他的意思是, 一般投資人, 只要能説出三個買一家公司的理由, 就很夠了. 這也迫使我, 每次在買股票時, 問自己對這家公司的了解有多少. 也會去衡量公司的優點與缺點在哪裡.
"It is vital (重要的) that you know what you own, that if I asked you on the street why you like a certain stock, you can give me three reasons. If you don't know how they make their money, who their key clients are and what they make if, then I will tell you that you are over your head and should not own individual stocks."
全文在此:
Jim Cramer: In Times Like This, Go for the Easy Money
Look at the stocks you own. Can you tell me why you've got them? If you can't answer the following three questions, then have a look at several I like right now.
We've endured the meme stock craziness, with all of its love for heavily shorted stocks. We have watched the collapse of bitcoin to levels viewed as shocking, even if they are still more than double where they were not that long ago. We've dealt with Fed officials making it clear that they are no longer on the side of the bulls or the bears. They are on the side of job growth, but are wary of inflation. We've seen the end of the rush to get vaccines, which means that millions of people are going to get the new COVID variant, because there is no natural immunity to it. We've watched as the hopes for an infrastructure bill have collapsed. We've endured shortages of everything from chips to plastic to imported goods and labor.
And we're still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yep, we are in one of those halcyon moments, where the masks are off -- even if they shouldn't be -- and Americans are back doing what they do best: consume, spend, go out to eat and then consume and spend some more.
There are times in the stock market where the collective mindset is revealed. This is one of those times: Things are cool, it's not a big moment, there's no real news for a bit, it's the historically strong period and we can reach some conclusions about where we are.
When things are like this, it is important to remember that buyers like to revert to tried-and-true companies that thrive no matter what. These are companies that have an edge and are better at what they do than other companies.
You know that I am a great believer in index funds, that the average person doesn't have the time or the inclination to research individual stocks. It's a difficult barrier. I think you need to make time to read the quarterly report and listen to the conference call, to Google articles and, if possible, get some research about the companies you own. It is vital that you know what you own, that if I asked you on the street why you like a certain stock, you can give me three reasons. If you don't know how they make their money, who their key clients are and what they make if, then I will tell you that you are over your head and should not own individual stocks. I am reminded by this, because, once again, without a mask, I can be recognized and if I am not holding "Nvidia the Second," I can carry on a conversation.
I have had many in the last two weeks and when I have asked this litany of questions, I find myself at a loss as to why almost no one knew what they owned. But they thirsted for individual stocks, because they, like me, think things are better post pandemic. No, that's not a facetious comment. Many, many stocks did better with a stay-at-home economy. A huge number.
So what do I do? I revert to what others do when you are stumped about how to stay in touch with stocks, but want to do less homework. That means buying stocks that are accessible, not stocks like Unity (U) or Snowflake (SNOW) or Twilio (TWLO) or Okta (OKTA) .
I revert to normal businesses people know and I suggest they Google some articles, peruse the conference call, but, above all, like the company's products so you can buy more if it goes down.
Here's some that I have been telling people I like:
First is Ford (F) . I think the Ford lineup is amazing. The electric F-150 series will be incredible. I am eager to get a Maverick for my family, because it is a smaller pickup that will get the job done for the myriad little things I need to do with this farm I bought from that crazy bitcoin foray. I like the competitive edge of the CEO, who says he is going to bury Elon Musk when the Lightning comes out. I even think the Bronco is cool as all get out. Most important, though? I think the chip shortage is ending. My semiconductor friends are telling me the foundries are producing more feature-rich chips and that means Ford can pump out the trucks small business people love and need. Plus, the used car prices at last have plateaued, according to their most important pricing index. Halcyon times.
Second, Costco (COST) : The samples are coming back. Tell me you don't love the samples. You need things in bulk. You want low prices. You want to get all of the things that people don't think of with Costco, like insurance, hearing-aids -- hey, they are a fortune -- jewelry, things around the house. You go and you will buy far more than you first came for. My kind of store.
The kids love this American Eagle Outfitters (AEO) , which we just bought for my charitable trust, which you can follow along by joining the Action Alerts PLUS club. Jay Schottenstein, the CEO, came on "Mad Money" recently and it's clear that his Aerie model has real staying power: 26 consecutive quarters of double digit growth. No flash in the pan, that one. Number one brand in jeans for the 15 to 25 year old group. The best in the mall. How did I know this? I see the credit card bills.
I got up this morning to do my physical therapy. I have been doing it ever since I hurt my back in February. I have this really cool pair of sneakers that fit me perfectly and I love them, but I am fortunate enough to have a vacation house and I am always taking those shoes with me.
So I went on Amazon (AMZN) this morning and lo and behold I saw them for half price. I bought two pairs. Then I went over everything I have bought in the last year and got a bunch of those things. Then I bought a pair of binoculars, because mine were stolen. I paid half price.
Yep, Amazon's universal. I was talking to Alexa, while I was ordering, getting some new music on, asking questions. I saw that despite all of the Sturm und Drang of Amazon being late with things, all the delivery dates were within range. I didn't click on any ads, and I didn't need the speed of Web Services, but the whole thing reminded me about how special the darned company is. I don't care if it's ahead or behind plan for the moment. I would just buy some more when it goes down.
Finally, Apple (AAPL) . I think people who don't own Apple should look what they are holding at this very moment. Yes, right now. Or look at what's in your lap or on the table besides your fork. And then think about the bill you paid last night without knowing it. Think about what you bought in the App store yesterday. Think about what would happen if it would break or get stolen or, left in the Uber (UBER) , or heaven forbid, be dropped into the pool or in the, yes, toilet.
There, that's what you buy in halcyon times. Stocks of companies you know that if they go lower, because things get less halcyon, you are fine with it and buy more. If things go up, believe me, you will participate.
So accept the moment. Don't try for the hard money. Go for the easy kind. That's the best kind.

Hello friends! Today we're going to show you how to make a classic french dessert: Weekend Cake, aka Travel Cake or French pound cake.(cake week-end au pamplemousse, Gâteau de Voyage, pound cake)
Weekend Cake, or even Travel Cake, what a lovely name for such a simple dessert. Both of them are translated from french “Cake Week-end” and “Gâteau de Voyage”, it is similar to pound cake, or you can call it French pound cake. But there are still some differences. Pound cake is traditionally made with a pound of flour, butter, eggs, and sugar, and is to use softened butter, but french weekend cake is to use melted butter.
Weekend cake is actually a plain looking cake, made in a simple way, and the cake structure is firmer and less fragile, so it's ideal for a 3-4 days trip, or a weekend friend gathering dessert. This recipe is from Le Cordon Bleu, but we’ve made some adjustments. Hope you like this video. :-) Enjoy.
This rich, double-glazed pound cake is made in the classic French style. In fact, the recipe came from the Cordon Bleu cooking school in Paris.

Dikembe Mutombo looked as if he'd been playing with the Philadelphia 76ers for years instead of hours.
Mutombo had 17 points, 13 rebounds and five blocked shots in his debut with Philadelphia as the 76ers beat the Detroit Pistons 99-78 Friday night.
"He changed the whole game with his defense and rebounding," said Philadelphia's Allen Iverson, who had 43 points and 10 rebounds.
Mutombo was traded along with Roshown McLeod from Atlanta to Philadelphia on Thursday for Theo Ratliff, Nazr Mohammed and Pepe Sanchez in the most-significant deal of the NBA season.
After the game, Mutombo looked relieved to be sitting in a folding chair with ice packs surrounding both knees.
He flew from Atlanta to Philadelphia late Thursday night, had a physical at 7 a.m., then arrived in Detroit at about 5 p.m. Friday.
"I need some sleep," Mutombo said. "But really, I'm so excited to be with this group of guys. They're all about winning and we have a great coach."
Philadelphia coach Larry Brown was glad that Mutombo was able to provide a lot of the same things as Ratliff.
"He rebounded and defended like he has his whole career," Brown said. "I thought he was terrific ... I think it's pretty remarkable what he was able to do under those circumstances."
Philadelphia has the best record in the NBA at 42-14. The Sixers extended their winning streak to six games.
Detroit's Jerry Stackhouse scored 22 points. Chucky Atkins had 12 points and Dana Barros added 10. The Pistons made just 37.1 percent of their shots.
Mutombo's status for the game was much more in doubt than the outcome.
The Sixers jumped out to a 16-4 lead and cruised to the win. Philadelphia led by nine points after one quarter, 12 at halftime and 17 after three quarters.
Philadelphia did not know whether Mutombo would be cleared to play until an hour before the game.
Minutes after Philadelphia Brown was informed that Mutombo was able to play, Mutombo walked into Philadelphia's locker room.
When Brown told Mutombo that he could play, the nine-year veteran asked "What do you want me to do?"
Brown left the decision whether or not to play up to Mutombo. He nodded his head to indicate that he wanted to play, and then turned to look for a uniform and basketball shoes to replace his brown suit and dress shoes.
On defense, Mutombo, the three-time defensive player of the year, hung around the lane to block and alter shots.
He ignited Philadelphia's fastbreak with 10 defensive rebounds and crisp outlet passes. There were times that Iverson was so far down the court that Mutombo didn't make it to halfcourt.
On offense, he set space-creating screens with his 7-foot-2, 265-pound frame. When Mutombo got the ball, his sky hooks and deliberate low-post moves gave the Sixers an option on the interior.
Mutombo started and played 36 minutes. He made 7-of-12 shots and 3-of-4 free throws.
"There is not much difference between the Sixers with Theo Ratliff and with Mutombo," said Detroit's Ben Wallace, who had 17 rebounds. "They both clog the middle and block a lot of shots. Theo is a little more athletic and Mutombo is a little bigger."
The game also marked the debut of Detroit's Corliss Williamson, who scored six points and grabbed four rebounds.
Williamson was traded by Toronto along with Kornell David, Tyrone Corbin and a conditional first-round pick to Detroit for Jerome Williams and Eric Montross. Detroit released Corbin and put David on the injured list.
"It was unfair to play him, but once Ben (Wallace) got those two quick fouls, I didn't have much choice," Detroit's George Irvine said. "It's been a whirlwind for him, but he'll be fine. He did a nice job out there."
