TELEGRAPH - London 2012 Olympics: Japanese world judo champion Ebinuma Masashi saved by an overturned verdict, Jul 31, 2012
"The 10,000-strong capacity crowd erupted with derision when the officials awarded a quarter-final to South Korea’s Cho Jun-Ho after a tense contest with the world champion Ebinuma Masashi from Japan ended in deadlock.
The reaction of the crowd prompted the unprecedented move for the result to be referred to a reviewing commission, which ruled that Masashi was the winner. Nicolas Messner, spokesman for the International Judo Federation, defended the intervention, even though Masashi afterwards admitted he felt he had lost. “We want to make sure that the right fighter has won,” he said

DAILY BREEZE - Olympics prime-time Sunday draws near record TV viewership, Jul 31, 2012
"HOLLYWOOD - NBC's prime-time Summer Olympics coverage Sunday averaged 36 million viewers, the second most for the first Sunday of a Summer Olympics since individual viewership figures began being measured in 1987, according to figures released today by Nielsen.
The record for the first Sunday prime-time Summer Olympics telecast is 36.4 million for the 1996 Atlanta Games.
Television coverage of Olympic Games held in the United States traditionally draw larger audiences than those from outside the country because of larger overall interest in the Olympics along with the ability to show more events live because of no time difference or a considerably smaller time difference.
Viewership was up 11.46 percent from the 32.3 million for the first Sunday prime-time telecast of the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Through three nights, NBC is averaging a record-35.8 million viewers for its prime-time coverage of the London Games, topping the previous record of 34.4 million set in 1996 and 16.99 percent more than the 30.6 million average for the first three nights of coverage of the 2008 Games."

"The blue bird of paradise is one of 35 endangered bird species that have been leaving the Solomon Islands in a cage--destined for the shelves of a pet store. And, so far, the country has mostly gotten away with this, claiming the birds were bred in captivity. The problem is: no major breeding farms exist anywhere on the island.
