[Laura (Lori)]

If you're attending the races and haven't bought your tickets yet... for a limited time, there's a special half-price deal on the Weekend Pass (General Admission) at the following link:

We're in SLC... we'll stop in at the Oval this afternoon!

Yippee! I hope everyone has a wonderful time. You are so lucky. I had to bow out at the last moment due a medical issue with my mom. Be thinking of her as she undergoes surgery and the installation of a heart defibrillator.

Important 'Race-Eve' News!

We attended a kick-off event tonight for the new USS Foundation (exciting things happening there, and I'll tell you more about that after the racing's over).

But the thing I need to tell y'all TONIGHT is that we heard from a reliable source that ISU may be planning to LIVE STREAM the World Cup in Salt Lake City!

We weren't able to get a link, but presumably it's somewhere on the ISU.org site. If anyone finds it, PLEASE post it here!

UPDATE: WOO-HOO! Here's the link to ISU's stream!: livemanager.eurovision.edgesuite.net/isu/site/index.html



---------------------------

The ISU's (very) detailed schedule - with heat lineups - is UP!
www.sportresult.com/federations/ISU/ShortTrack/

Click on any race on the above-linked page to see lineups for each heat - this will be the same link where you'll find the 'LIVE' button for the data feed.

Also, click on any country on the following page to see who's competing for that country.
www.sportresult.com/federations/ISU/ShortTrack/

-----------------------------------

Racing (Prelim's for all events) starts at 12 noon Eastern; 11am Central; 10am Mtn; 9am Pacific

I'm quite sure that I'll be able to access wireless internet, so I'll be checking in to report on the races. However, my computer battery only lasts about an hour, so unless I can find a power source near my seat (doubtful), I may only be checking in during zamboni breaks in between longer charge-ups.

I haven't heard yet if Tony will be Tweeting, but if he is, you can find him at www.twitter.com/shorttrackhd .

Hi everyone! Wish I were out there with you, but I'll have to cheer on our skaters from home with my foot up. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Go Team USA!

[bubblebuttsbabe]

Hi Susie! :]

[Laura (Lori)]

Racing's underway, and I have internet! I have access to the media room for re-charges, but I'm just going to check in during zamboni breaks so I can watch the racing.

Is everyone seeing the ISU data feed? Any action on the ISU Live Stream?

[Laura (Lori)]

Tony has started a Live Blog which is a bit more interactive than Tweeting. It looks like it's working well, and he's far better able to post heat-by-heat updates in that format than I'm able to here - so here's the link:
