UNICEF特别为这些参与者设了新马桶，且每个参与者都会有一个记数的手环、一件跟Juju 身上穿的t-shirt（所以要去看一下连结里的照片）和跟此活动有关的卫生纸 A similar record was tried in the U.S. but the organizers failed to gather a sufficient number of participants.UNICEF Belgium needed to collect at least 500 people to establish the new record, and after the success of yesterday's event, they’ll be recorded in the Guinness Book of Records. 简单来说就是在美国这个活动失败了，所以在比利时至少要有五百人来创这个记录 这个创纪录的数字将会收在金氏世界记录里 The event was designed to raise awareness and funds for more pumps, wells, latrines and hygiene education for children in lesser-developed countries. 这一段是阐述该活动的宗旨，跳过 “We will all be aware of the problem of water when we realize that a child dies every 20 seconds from lack of water and hygiene, and nearly half of all children have no access to toilets.” – Justine Henin 这里是引用juju对这个活动的发言「我们必须对这个问题有警觉，当我们发觉每二 十秒就会有一个儿童死於缺乏净水和卫生知识，且近乎有一半的儿童根本没有厕所」 The activities were part of World Water Day, and in case you weren’t aware, March 22-28 is World Water Week. If you live in the U.S., there are a number of ways you can get involved. For example, if you’re planning on dining-out this week, consider eating at a participating restaurant in your area. Your donation of just $1 can provide safe and clean drinking water for a child for 40 days. It’s that easy. 上面三段是在呼吁住在美国的人响应这个活动，例如一美金就可以维持一个小孩有 40天份的饮用净水 Though I was never thrilled with some of her on-court shenanigans bullshit activities ((cough: AO ‘06, “the hand”, etc.)), I have to say that I’m really admiring Juju’s post-tennis career. 这里不想翻，讨厌，也不建议看，想称赞人家还要先ㄎㄠ ㄙㄟ一番吗？ （我不是故意注音文，是台语 台语） --
