标题[外电] Israeli president breaks a sweat before meeting Casspi

I totally indulged my career-long obsession with international basketball and
David Stern's behind-the-scenes global peace campaign during a half-hour
conversation this afternoon with Omri Casspi, who was calling from Israel at
about 1 a.m., his time. After 24 hours of failing to connect because of the
10-hour time difference, I was finally able to ask Omri about his involvement
in the basketball camp sponsored by the Peres Peace Center and the NBA. The
idea mirrors that of the NBA's Basketball Without Borders - in this case,
getting Israeli and Palestinian youngsters together and fostering tolerance
and understanding through sports.
我还沉醉於与omri的谈话，这段谈话维持差不多半个小时，主要是在讲国际篮球还有史腾
的幕後全球和平活动，他在早上一点时从以色列打来。我问omri关於他参加由Peres和平
中心与NBA赞助的篮球营，这和NBA的篮球无国界活动类似，在这活动将以色列和巴勒斯坦
的年轻人聚集在一起，透过运动促进宽容和了解。
Before going to the camp in Jaffa, Omri and his brother, Eitan, were invited
to Israeli president Shimon Peres' home in Jerusalem. Besides the serious
conversation, there were lighter moments. "At first I felt kind of bad," said
Casspi, only half-jokingly. "I got out of bed and drove with my brother first
thing in the morning (approximately 45 minutes from Yavne to Jerusalem). When
we got there, Mr. Peres had already taken his morning jog. And he's 87 years
old! I just woke up and drove to meet him, didn't even work out yet. He is
pretty amazing ..."
在前往办在Jaffa的篮球营之前，omri和他的哥哥Eitan被以色列总统Shimon Peres邀请到
他位於Jerusalem的家。除了正经的谈话，还有一些轻松的谈话。"一开始我感觉有点差，
我一起床就和我哥哥开车出门(从Yavne到Jerusalem大概45分钟)。当我们到那里时，总统
已经在晨跑，他已经87岁了耶，我才刚起床开车去见他，都还没开始热咧。他真的太惊人
了"omri半开玩笑地说。
Casspi also revealed that he signed his first official sponsorship deal -
with the Israeli airline El Al. He was scheduled to film commericals for the
airline within the next few days, then return to Sacramento to get ready for
training camp.
omri同时也透露他签了他第一个官方赞助约，和以色列航空El Al。他预计过几天会为这航
空公司拍广告，然後就会回沙城为训练营做准备。
