LOL! My mom got to Michigan today for her adult gold event (sk8rpink), and I sure hope she skates clean. As for the results issue I think its not fair that they only post the highest levels, I mean at regionals they posted everything and I was at intermediate and they posted it, why can't they do that with adult nationals. I know ya'll are old but still I mean I do kneel down to those of you that are like really tall and jumping

The Bronze III quals and final round results, or even a link.

Balony. The 6.0 results are done on computer with a program called HAL2 - which has one button that produces an HTML report of the results of the completed events. It takes maybe three seconds and then that file gets zipped and sent to whoever's posting it.

I've been doing accounting for almost 20 years and we haven't done results by hand in all that time. (We had to know HOW to in case the computers went down but that was very very rare.) Before HAL2, there was HAL and before that, there was another DOS-based program whose name I forget. But it's been computer-driven for a very long time.

In the past, USFS posted the non-IJS events on their site or the club posted them on their website. IF Ice Network has been designated the Official Results site, then either the accountants haven't sent them the results of the 6.0 events (and seeing who the accountants are, I doubt that) or IN isn't bothering to post them - which is just WRONG.

The delay is UNACCEPTABLE - but unfortunately is typical of USFS's treatment of lower level adults.

Oh Blue111moon.....are you that un-versed in sarcasm?

The people of Italy want their Balogna!

If you skate faster, it makes everything look better!

I sent an e-mail to IN and they replied that all the results were posted at that link - well, lo and behold, they now are - 6.0 events have been added below the IJS events.

We informed the chief referee this morning that 6.0 results weren't being posted online, so maybe he lit a fire under someone's butt!

Am finally at a computer where I can type more easily.

I ended up 9th in the Viennese W. which put me at 8th overall. I'm so happy with that, and even more, with the fact that I skated strongly & didn't get too nervous. Am very proud of myself, actually.

I met cosk8ter and jazzpants (she came to watch me!!), and saw a few other friends I knew a bit.

Lori Fussell skated a hilarious interp showcasing the "10 most overused pieces of skating music". Every 15 seconds or so, it switched to a new piece of music and it got funnier & funnier. When toward the end she morphed into "Bolero" on her knees a'la Torvill & Dean, the crowd went wild, and the judges were all laughing hysterically. Even after she was done & off the ice, the judges were all still grinning. It was FANTASTIC.

I saw vesperholly skate one of her solo dances & she did a nice job. I hope solo dance is here to stay--it was certainly well represented at all levels.

I also saw Julie & Michael in championship dance for their compulsories this morning. Unfortunately they are the only ones, but such a pleasure to watch them skate! Since there were no other competitors, they had to do Viennese and then Samba back to back.

Now I'm at my mom's pretending to get some work done, but will be back tomorrow to see FD's among other things.

Lori Fussell skates at my rink, I have seen her routine of the artistic a million times. It looks like she really pulled it out in competition. Did she win?

Congratulations, NoVA! And to Dennis, and Marty (who got credit for both 2toes)!

Video coverage is not live for this event, it is "on-demand." Hopefully it won't take too long after the comp for the videos to be posted, but seeing as how they still haven't posted the videos from the World Team Trophy....
