The Beijing Olympic Games has now closed. Japan got 25 medals including 9 gold medals. Through athletes efforts, I could learn to have strong will to pursue my way in everything. Those athletes who got the gold medals are great to manage their anxiety and puzzlement to the difference in terms of atmosphere and the interpretation of rules.
Well, I always check the medal counts, and I find the difference to show the results among media.

This is the official website to show the results of medal standings. The order is based on the number of the gold medals and China is the No.1 this time. However, when you got to the website like The New York Times or the Yahoo. com, you can see difference a little.

It looks like the United States of America is the No.1... yes in terms of the total medal numbers which they have got.
I guess the Japan team did well in general, and I remember that Japan built the national training center in Tokyo a couple of years ago. It seems for the Olympic athletes only. Based on the mixture between the experiences of many athletes and nutritional science or the latest study of human being.

Anyway I want to appreciate the great performance of athletes from all over the world.
