По мере того, как объявляются их имена, спортсмены, занявшие первое, второе и третье места, одетые в официальную или спортивную форму (в строгом соответствии с Олимпийской Хартией) занимают свои места на подиуме, установленном лицом к трибуне официальных лиц.

62 pay the piper
1) взять на себя издержки [часть пословицы he who pays the piper calls the tune; см. he who pays the piper calls the tune]Of course I am a poor man, and my uncle a rich one - in other words, he paid the piper. (A. Christie, ‘Poirot Investigates’, ‘The Mystery of Hunter's Lodge’) — Конечно, я человек бедный, но дядюшка у меня богатый. Вот ему и пришлось взять на себя издержки.
To my unsubtle mind, it would seem that under such circumstances only the man who can afford to pay the printer - not to speak of the piper! - enjoys freedom to print. (G. Marion, ‘Stop the Press!’, ch. 9) — Мне, по моему скромному разумению, представляется, что в таких условиях свободой печати пользуется только тот, кто может хорошо заплатить издателю.
2) расплачиваться, поплатитьсяBut for all he was the first to go in, yet it was observed he was invariably the best to come off and his partners in mischief were alone to pay the piper. (R. L. Stevenson, ‘The Master of Ballantrae’, ch. I) — Он всегда был вожаком, но неизменно выходил сухим из воды: его сообщникам приходилось расплачиваться самим.
Some day he'll have to pay the piper for all that gambling. (RHD) — Когда-нибудь он поплатится за свою страсть к азартной игре.

69 Lucy and the football
•• * В статье обозревателя Washington Post Чарльза Краутхаммера, резко критической в отношении «виртуального мирного договора», подписанного израильскими и палестинскими политиками в Женеве, встретился следующий пассаж, который сначала привел меня в некоторое замешательство:
•• Arafat pocketed every Israeli concession and betrayed every promise he signed in Oslo. It’s Lucy and the football all over again, and the same chorus of delusionals who so applauded Oslo – Jimmy Carter, Sandy Burger, Tom Friedman – is applauding again. This time, however, the Israeli surrender is so breathtaking, it makes Oslo look rational.
•• Смысл фразы Lucy and the football all over again – сильно напоминающей знаменитую сентенцию Йоги Берра (it’s déjà vu all over again) – конечно, ясен, но захотелось все-таки выяснить ее происхождение, точное значение и статус. Помог, как почти всегда, гугл, выдавший следующую статью из Princeton Alumni Weekly:
•• Lucy and the football
•• Will basketball once again break our young columnist’s heart? I grew up in a Peanuts household. My father, a man with a deep appreciation for pathos, fell in love with Charlie Brown as a child, and numerous Peanuts anthologies lined the walls of our library.
•• <...>
•• One annual segment involving Charlie Brown did capture my imagination. Every fall Charlie Brown and Lucy would go outside to kick a field goal with a football. Every fall Charlie Brown would recall that the previous year Lucy had pulled the football away at the last possible moment, causing Charlie Brown to fly 10 feet in the air and land flat on his back. Every fall Lucy would patiently explain to Charlie Brown that this was the year that things would be different. And every fall Charlie Brown would again end up flat on his back as Lucy reminded him of the cruel realities of our world.
•• <...>
•• This season I worry that the men’s basketball team may be preparing to perform a milder version of the Lucy and the football trick on me. After I watched the Tigers get thoroughly dissected by California and St. Josephs – and as Penn made some serious noise in early-season games – I made peace with the notion that this was a rebuilding year. In fact, as we entered the Ivy League season at 4-7, I was even prepared to concede that we might ( shudder) finish lower than second in the league.
•• So what happens? On the Monday after the first full weekend of the season, I check the scores, fully prepared for terrible news. But what I discover is that Princeton has swept Harvard and Dartmouth while Penn has managed to lose in Cambridge. And suddenly I’m a believer again.
•• <...>
•• But warning signs already abound. <...> For the moment, however, my early-season jitters are long forgotten. I am a convert, a true believer, orange and black to the hilt. I have trotted back to the bandwagon like a pathetic puppy and I am ready for another unexpected and magical run to the NCAA Tournament. At least until Lucy again pulls that football away.
•• Итак, речь идет о героях комиксов серии Peanuts. В американском футболе гол «с поля» забивается игроком, для которого другой игрок (в данном случае Lucy) придерживает овальный мяч на земле. Если в последний момент мяч убирается, то бьющий с разбега теряет равновесие и действительно падает на спину. Так что можно понимать это выражение как подвох и даже подлость. Но можно посмотреть на это и с другой стороны. Чарли Браун, как сказали бы в аналогичной ситуации по-русски, опять наступает на грабли. Конечно, рекомендовать это как перевод вряд ли можно – ведь у слушающего появляется соблазн развития метафоры. Но для понимания это сравнение полезно.
•• Остается вопрос о статусе этого выражения. Что это – реалия, крылатое выражение, аллюзия? Или вошедшее в язык фразеологическое сочетание? Судя по отсутствию этого выражения в словарях, последнее – вряд ли. Но если начнет работать механизм языковой моды, то переход в категорию фразеологизма может произойти довольно быстро.

1) имeть нeздopoвый, блeдный вид, выглядeть бoльным'Did you see him? Was he green about the gills?' 'No, he was in the pink,' said Philip (C. Vidat). As the sea became rougher and the boat rolled from side to side, many passengers began to look green about the gills. In his mirror he saw his image also listening and looking very white about the gills, he thought (R. Greenwood)2) (тoлькo be или look white about, around или in the gills) выглядeть иcпугaнным, имeть иcпугaнный вид'I don't blame him. Felt that way myself the First time I went down the shaft...' 'You were white around the gills, and no mistake, Morrey. But that didn't stop y'r [-your] goin' down every mornin' we were workin' in the shaft' (K. S. Prichard).

John (with a smile): "When the devil was sick, the devil a monk would be." (W. S. Maugham, ‘The Unknown’, act 1) — Полковник Уортон: "Вы не первый обнаружите, что легко быть одиноким, когда все хорошо. Совсем другое дело, когда человек болен или в опасности." Джон (улыбаясь): "Старость придет, и черт в монастырь пойдет."

76 all who run may read
(all who run may read (тж. he that или he who runs may read))всякий поймёт, всякому доступно (о чём-л. лёгком, доступном для понимания) [этим. библ. Habakkuk II, 2]Some writers who do not think clearly are inclined to suppose that their thoughts have a significance greater than at first sight appears. It is flattering to believe that they are too profound to be expressed so clearly that all who run may read, and very naturally it does not occur to such writers that the fault is with their own minds which have not the faculty of precise reflection. (W. S. Maugham, ‘The Summing Up’, ch. 11) — Некоторые писатели, не отличающиеся ясностью ума, склонны считать свои мысли более значительными, чем кажется на первый взгляд. Им лестно думать, что мысли их необычайно глубоки, а значит, их нельзя выразить понятным каждому языком. Таким писателям, конечно, и в голову не приходит, что вся их беда в неумении ясно мыслить.
‘The whole thing is perfectly clear now,’ he said. ‘The inexplicable disappearance of Mr. Farrington is explained in poster type, "that he who runs may read."’ (E. Wallace, ‘The Secret House’, ch. XVI) — - Теперь все понятно, - сказал Т. Б. Смит. - Необъяснимое исчезновение мистера Фаррингтона объяснилось. Все ясно как божий день.

77 enter upon the path of smth.
(enter upon (или take) the path of smth.)вступить на путь чего-л.The point I want to make is that today there are more and more writers who believe their only hope is to take the path which was first shown to us by Maxim Gorki, which will protect the best heritage of our country and fight for a new and better nation. (R. Fox, ‘The Novel and the People’, ‘Literature and Politics’) — Хочу специально подчеркнуть, что сейчас появляется все больше и больше писателей, видящих единственное спасение в том пути, который нам впервые был указан Максимом Горьким и который один только позволит сохранить лучшее из наследия нашей страны и бороться за обновление и совершенствование нации.
