Yesterday was the 1st anniversary of the opening of the 2010 Vancouver Games.
Did anyone catch JR's tweet? An acknowledgement of his return to racing?
"Exactly 1 year ago I walked into Opening Ceremonies in front of the rest of the world. Time to take it to the next level. "

About yesterday 1000m final:
The competition's winner between two chinese athletes and South korea athletes. Finally, South korean got gold medal and silver medal, china is 3rd and 4th.
But the some chinese short-track fans seed the south korea's YANG Shin-Young pull Liu Qiuhong's leg when TV re-showed slow! Some our short-track fans didn't happy!
They are adept in hidden action, because it is not easy to be found.
We have a YANG Shin-Young's fan! The fan is very unhappey. She very want to defend hers, but she seed the video too. She likes south korea action clean athletes. She deems YANG Shin-Young is one of the clean athlets. Later, She gave YANG Shin-Young send a message online.
This is YANG Shin-Young's return message: "Thank you for your support, trust me, I understand me, gave me such high evaluation. I’m really very touched. Yesterday's match in the game I too nervous, eager to hope for success, to Liu do have tugged action, almost made her down. Here, I say sorry. In the next game I avoid colliding with the other contestants."
Hope this is true.
About yesterday 1500m final:
Cho Ha-Ri said: "Now focus is next World Championships. The two stations world cup as games to play! Today 1500m final, Because it doesn't have Park Seung-Hi, can't exercise tactical, so the competition doesn't have any significance for me. So the last curve, didn't sedulously beyond REUTTER Katherine.
1000m final, We infringe upon Liu Qiuhong. We have owed to a lot of hers. Just past Asina winter games competition, if I didn't push hers, she will is certain champion of 1000m. Because her speed at that time, she can beyond Park Seung-Hi surely. I only say sorry. Because I unable to say the anything except it. These are our errors. Chinese tactical is success, if doesn't have that hidden action, Liu Qiuhong and the other Chinese athlete will win the competition. But if, it only be used to make a assumption, the fact is we real Interfere with Liu Qiuhong's glide, but referee didn't gave the penalty. I apologize for my teammates at here, we will not happen again such the thing."
Hope this is true again.

The competition was suspended, Zhao Nannan got up miraculously and tried to re-start, but Zhao Nannan was forbidden continue to competition by the main female referee. It is said she break her head.... She very fortitude!

Thank you to all who lost sleep or got up "early" to keep us posted on the medal races. Special thanks to Dust and others for comments on other countries skaters and comments. Very enlightening. to team USA for all that energy expended skating "up the ladder" and competing with their hearts and their skill. Happy for the medal winners and keeping the USA on the podium in Moscow. Rest up, stay healthy, and keep skating safely! Will see you all at next World Cup! Musical Mom a shout out also to the young Canadian team...glad to see Michael Gilday on world cup circuit and Jessica Hewitt too. both representing western Canada...

Thanks you everyone for the updates. Sorry to have missed it with everyone. I set my alarm for 3am, but apparently I hit the alarm and went back to sleep. ...which is probably just as well since I had to work today.
