Latest T-Mobile ad ridicules AT&T network, touts 4G superiority
0. phoneArena 08 May 2012, 14:01 posted on
Fancy Carly's new attitude? Then you might be interested in checking out the latest T-Mobile commercial, which shamelessly ridicules AT&T and its wireless network. In particular, the 30 second video aims straight for the iPhone 4S (which technically isn't a 4G smartphone, by the way) and attempts to convince you that HSPA+ on a T-Mobile 4G smartphone delivers much higher mobile data speeds...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

T-Mobile? What's T-Mobile? Nowhere to be found in my neck of the woods. :)

This is a dumb ad. Tmobile doesn't even sell the iPhone, yet they're making a commercial for it? Tmobile lost 700,000 subs last quarter and attributed it all to them not having the iPhone available. So instead of taking any blame with poor coverage, they shift the blame to Apple wanting too much money for their product.

lol that is the problem tmobile doesnt have 15 billion to spend on iphones like sprint did and look were that got them

Bc tmobile is expanding their Network so that future unlocked iphones would be able to use 3g and 4g on tmobile

When is someone going to buy T-mobile? Comcast, Google, or Apple someone needs to save this ship before it sinks.

sprint will sink first

Oh what if Microsoft buys them and makes them the windows phone network?
7. Beholder88 (Posts: 85; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
That is one of the dumbest commercials I have seen for a phone company in a long time. I agree with the whole iPhone deal, they don't even sell them! Sure they can be jailbroken to run on their network, but it's not built specifically to do that. Just wow...
9. Lboogey6 (Posts: 281; Member since: 31 Jan 2012)
Or... lets think for a second maybe OK just maybe they attempted to kill two birds with one stone not saying its the best commercial but they showed faster speeds against a phone people think they need
10. androidornothing (Posts: 143; Member since: 26 Apr 2012)
I'm an android boy but c'mon r u serious!!!!! Stupid t-Mobile. iPhone isn't even 4g why the hell r they competing against it. Why don't you get a real LTE Android phone and test it out. Then well see who wins. IDIOTS!!!'
13. kanagadeepan (Posts: 922; Member since: 24 Jan 2012)
You are right... But may be they are comparing FALSE 4G phone of T-Mobile with FALSE 4G phone of AT&T...
14. squallz506 (banned) (Posts: 1075; Member since: 19 Oct 2011)
that is exactly who this commercial is for, IDIOTS.
to show IDIOTS how much they are overpaying for an underperforming phone and network.
it is pretty obvious that tmobile is specifically targeting iphone users because they know that they are suckers for flashy marketing.
18. tward291 (Posts: 559; Member since: 14 Feb 2012)
wow that amazing you just convinced me. i truly understand that as a android fanboy that those constant late night droid poundings have caused some brain damage. you might wanna try less late night poundings and let that droid get the mouth. droid jeez might be good for your mind body and soul.
11. gwuhua1984 (Posts: 1237; Member since: 06 Mar 2012)
It makes sense, afterall, you think of AT&T when talking about iPhone. Unless the next iPhone get LTE, the data speed it's going to run on AT&T will be slower than T-Mobile. In a way, it could be viewed that T-Mobile is suggesting the iPhone users on AT&T to switch over when the refarming is done later this year. Either way, it'll be a whole new ball game between the top carriers once T-Mobile finish refarm and LTE rollout.
12. StalkinUrMom (Posts: 111; Member since: 16 Apr 2012)
You guys have no idea how many people think the iPhone 4/4s is a 4G phone.
If you ask most technologically challenged people why they want an iPhone they'll say it's because it's the "fastest" phone. That's the demographic these ads are aimed towards.
I still think it's cheap though.
21. djg71087 (Posts: 70; Member since: 10 Oct 2010)
as of recent, the iPhone on at&t does now use HSPA+ and says 4G in the corner of the phone. But i know what you mean.
25. bigdawg23 (Posts: 449; Member since: 25 May 2011)
THe iPhone is not HSPA+ it is HSPA only. It runs 14.4Mps and not 21Mps.
As for the ad, I have had T-MO and cover is below average at best. Now any phone company will post speeds in certain market that they have great coverage to run these ads. However, in most locations it doesnt function like that. Currently I surpass most T-MO customer in Minnesota. Also its HSPA+ doesnt do what LTE does in AT&T LTE Markets like KC and Chicago, that I have tested.
19. cncrim (Posts: 826; Member since: 15 Aug 2011)
Crazy ad, T-Mobile advertise team should do more home work with these kind ad..... I don't see how it will the company.
20. djg71087 (Posts: 70; Member since: 10 Oct 2010)
a more fair comparison...
at&t's iPhone to T-mobile's (unlocked) iPhone:
4G (HSPA+) Vs. EDGE
at&t's (latest) 4G to T-Mobile's (latest) 4G
LTE Vs. 4G (HSPA+)
And the winner is, at&t. However the commercial was "ridiculous"
23. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
Not true
some of the 1900mhz spectrum is up, so technically you can get full HSDPA speeds on the iphone4s in some markets.
BTW, the iphone is NOT 4G HSPA+. Its HSDPA. lolol.
ATT's latest 4g has a selection of like 2 or 3 phones in like 5 markets. Nearly half of Tmobile's lineup is 4G, and its the widest 4g network in the US. So while you might get higher speeds in LA, I'll have higher speeds everywhere else.
Oh yea, and its half the price.
31. hitechredneck (Posts: 97; Member since: 21 Nov 2011)
hey there not in my neck of the woods bud. I'll run 4g around all day long while you run 3g on tmobile in my area. Know the facts before you post.
32. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
Unless your neck of the woods is the entire US, your specific little point of reference has no validity. In my neck of the woods, i have Tmo HSPA+ 42mb/s, while ATT only goes up to 14 at best. Thats why we use national references instead of "your neck of the woods".
38. hitechredneck (Posts: 97; Member since: 21 Nov 2011)
buddy my nech of the woods is half of maryland that tmobile and sprint do not have 4g in. Nationally everyone says they have the best.
39. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
hmm.. ive been through maryland.. i got 4g in a lot of it. you should check your phone or move closer to a city. :)
"my neck of the woods" is florida. Its flat and extremely well covered in all but the most back woodsy areas.
again, which is why they use national areas.
The only one that claims to have the BIGGEST 4G network is Tmobile. VZW claims to have the best calling network and super fast LTE. ATT claims that they dont suck and sprint claims they are unlimited.
40. hitechredneck (Posts: 97; Member since: 21 Nov 2011)
Sounds like you stayed in the washington DC area. Checked Tmobile's website for my neck of the woods and guess what? they don't do 4g in any part of western maryland. So the arguement is that how can they say the have the largest 4g coverage when certain parts aren't covered and other companies do have 4g in those parts. And again Tmobile is using AT&T's network on top of it. Part of the merger not going through.
41. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
really? you dont get how they can say they have the largest 4g network in the US because they dont cover YOUR neck of the woods? Again, you do realize the US is much bigger than your back yard right? They go by total square miles of 4g coverage.. which is again, NATIONAL not local. Wow...
Tmobile isnt USING ATT's network.. ATT had to give it to them as part of the merger deal if it didnt go through. And the 1900 spectrum they got is not set up for 4g yet. None of that spectrum is counted in their "largest 4g claims", especially since they have been claiming that for a lot longer than the merger.
42. hitechredneck (Posts: 97; Member since: 21 Nov 2011)
if they go by square miles tmobile would lose. by the way thought this was interesting to that I foundhttp://www.tmonews.com/2012/04
So obviously I'm not the only one. And yawn yawn yawn at this conversation. Wouldn't matter what I said anyways you just have something to say about it. Glad you live in Florida and not around here
34. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
AT&T's iPhone is HSPA+ 14mbps. that's how they actually categorize it but really on average it's only as fast as the occasional bursts you can get on their HSDPA network. i've gotten a good look into it in the wild because i have a friend that's speed testing like mad to try to get anything comparable to even the lowest speeds i get on Verizon's LTE. spoiler alert, he can't get anywhere near it. xD
22. -box- (Posts: 3991; Member since: 04 Jan 2012)
I like the new attitude and outfit, and the other advertising campaigns they have going on are neat.
As for why the iphone, because it's the most popular-by-brand device out there (for now). Yes, it's not a balanced comparison (14.4 Mbps HSPA+ on an outdated POS vs 42 Mbps HSPA+ on a newer faster device)
I think a fairer competition would have been the equivalent phone on LTE versus the 42 Mbps HSPA+
24. Jyakotu (Posts: 844; Member since: 12 Dec 2008)
I guess the commercial is okay, but it won't help T-Mobile from staying the #4 carrier. T-Mobile is a European carrier dressed as a US one. They really want to end contracts and have people pay full price for the phone so that they have access to cheaper plans. Too bad for T-Mobile USA, Americans don't feel justified in paying hundreds of dollars for a cell phone, me included. Still, I would like to see a real world comparison of a T-Mobile 4G Android device vs. the AT&T iPhone 4S.
33. gwuhua1984 (Posts: 1237; Member since: 06 Mar 2012)
Long term wise, not having contracts could actually save the consumer money. It's just the initial cost of getting a phone will scare the customer. Without having to subsidize for phone, the plan price could be much cheaper, then over period of 2 years, the customer should save more than being on contract. That's if the carriers offering the lowest price possible.

At&t SUCKS EGGS...
28. ScelesticSteve (Posts: 26; Member since: 29 Mar 2012)
Creative, but stupid. This is funny coming from a carrier that roams off of AT&T. They also have more GSM & 3G coverage than T-Mobile, that's why they piggy back off of them. Plus AT&T actual LTE, and T-Mobile doesn't.
30. hitechredneck (Posts: 97; Member since: 21 Nov 2011)
Well doesn't this sound like the dog that bites the hand that feeds them. Didn't at&t just pay them 3.9 billion dollars and 1 billion dollars worth the spectrum and come out with a commercial like this. And to boot they're running off of at&t's network hello. What a farce.
35. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
they should have just waited until their LTE network went live for this because it's silly to watch them just dip their toe in the pool that is aggressive 4G marketing now because they know LTE is superior to even their HSPA+ 42mbps even if it is just slightly in some areas. i mean the iPhone? really? Sprint's and Verizon's iPhones aren't even 4G.
36. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
i dont agree that its silly. A little later than it should have been, for sure.. but not silly. For the bulk of america, Tmobile is faster than ATT since ATT's LTE network is so small and is having a slow roll out. They seem to be careful about not trying to measure up with VZW, since VZW is throwing up LTE pretty quickly and may/will catch up to Tmobile's HSPA+ coverage area soon.
Knock ATT, Knock sprint, show people your as fast as VZW at half the cost.. that would be my plan.
37. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
well i just think this manner of advertising is silly. they should find a way to cleverly market their larger 4G coverage footprint instead of these dumb Apples to Oranges comparisons they're doing. it's the same situation that Verizon was in a few years back. their 3G was slower than nearly everybody's but they had the most coverage so they pushed the hell out of it and made AT&T into a real embarrassment. Verizon marketed their 3G network so well that people most of the time ignored or didn't realize how slow it was.
43. skymitch89 (Posts: 1299; Member since: 05 Nov 2010)
And what's worse is that they T-Mo puts their HSPA+ 42 devices against the iPhone 4S on the 3 other networks and claim that it's a "speed comparison between popular devices". I really think that they should update their "Testdrive" to feature devices like the GS3.
44. gwuhua1984 (Posts: 1237; Member since: 06 Mar 2012)
You do realize that this is before SGS3 was out right?


text: Booth attained distinction in this role at Covent Garden, London in 1817, but emigrated from Britain to the USA in 1821. Richard III was the first Shakespeare play staged in America, by Thomas Kean in New York on March 5, 1750 (perhaps after presenting it in Philadelphia). George Frederick Cooke (1756–1812) and Edmund Kean (see Gallery 2.3.33) also began their American tours in the role. It was enacted later by Edwin Forrest, William Macready, and Edwin Booth (see Gallery 7.1.15). When Junius Booth first performed it, the National Advocate noted, "In the conception of the character of the crooked back tyrant, Mr. Booth seems to be perfect. He exhibited none of those stage tricks, which many, who undertake the part, substitute for their lack of judgment." Later distinguished New York performances included John Barrymore's (1920), followed in New York by George C. Scott (1957), Donald Madden (1970), Al Pacino (1979), Kevin Kline (1983), and Denzel Washington (1990). See Wikipedia for further career details about these performances.

National Congress floating in cash
Story Text & Photos © 2012 by DR1
Apr 27 2012 22:30PM
- Legislators in the DR have not had a work session in weeks, and news reports say these are not scheduled for until after the election to allow the politicians to campaign for their presidential candidates in their jurisdictions. Meanwhile, TV investigative journalist Alicia Ortega reports this week on the high cost of the legislators to Dominican taxpayers. She pointed out on her El Informe con Alicia program that Congress in the Dominican Republic is the most costly in the Americas, on a per citizen base. She said the RD$5. 44 billion the government has allocated to Congress means each citizen pays US$15 a year to the pockets of the legislators. The legislators were elected for six-year period in 2010. She says over the period, their budget will be over RD$33 billion. She says the US$139 million cost for the DR is above that of Peru that pays US$110. 9 million, Costa Rica with US$76. 2 million and Uruguay with US$63. 8 million. On a per capita base, the DR pays more than Venezuela, which although a country of 27 million compared to nine million in the DR, only spends US$13 per inhabitant. For the report, Ortega used data provided by the Center for Research and Development of Education (CIDE) in Chile. She made the point that the president of the Senate and three other senators monthly receive an extra of RD$900,000 allocated to enable them to make "social contributions". The rest of the legislators receive in addition to their high wages between RD$710,000 and RD$450,000. This adds up to RD$229 million in discretionary funds plus the additional RD$68 million in wages. She makes the point that the president of the Senate, Reinaldo Pared Perez (PLD-National District) receives a wage of RD$175,000 plus the RD$900,000 of the so-called "barrilito" a month. He is thus guaranteed at least RD$77. 4 million for his six-year contract in the Senate. The 178 national deputies receive RD$87,000 for social compensation, RD$50,000 for support to legislative work, RD$35,000 for representation expenses, and RD$45,000 for diet, plus their legislative wage of RD$175,000 for an annual wage of RD$1. 05 billion a year, as reported in Diario Libre. There are 32 senators and 178 national deputies in the DR. Read original at

The Wando Warriors fell 77-32 to Linden (N.J.) Monday to place fourth in the Rotary International Bracket of the 21st annual Roundball Classic.
Wando finished 1-2 overall in the three-day tournament at North Charleston High School. A 65-53 opening-night win over Porter-Gaud Friday moved the Warriors into Saturday's semifinal round where they fell short 65-60 against St. John's (D.C.).
"We won't play anybody as good as the last two teams we played and I think it helped expose some things we still need to work on," Wando head coach David Eaton said. "Now, when we get into our region, we won't be overwhelmed because, hopefully, we learn a lesson from some of this stuff."
Wando was dominated most of Monday, falling victim to a 30-2 run through the final 10 minutes of the first half. Linden scored 18 points off 11 turnovers and limited the Warriors to just 16 percent shooting through the first 16 minutes.
Linden never trailed in the game and put Warriors away with a 16-5 run through the middle of the second half. Wando coughed up 20 turnovers and allowed Linden to shoot 62 percent and score 24 fast-break points.
Taylor Majewski led Wando with five points, while Matt Pegram finished with five points and six rebounds. Four players scored 10 or more points for Linden. Josh Carter led all scorers with 19 on 77 percent shooting, and Juwan Jones added 16 and three steals.
Wando got off to a slow start Saturday too, but rallied back in what Eaton described as one of the best game's he has ever been a part of.
The Warriors trailed by 22 at halftime but clawed back to within three points with two minutes to play. They opened the second half on a 22-7 run and shot 45 percent from beyond the arc after managing just 9 percent shooting in the first.
Pegram scored nine points and grabbed 10 rebounds in the second half. He finished the game with 11 points, 11 rebounds and four blocks. Jamez Rogers added 14 points, eight rebounds and three steals, while Amp Moore scored 10 with seven rebounds.
Porter-Gaud's K.J. James scored 23 of his game-high 36 points in the first half Friday to help his team to a seven-point advantage at the break. But as Porter-Gaud's star cooled off in the second half, Andrew Glover, Rogers and Amp Moore heated up to help Wando shoot 56 percent from three. The Warriors reclaimed the lead six minutes opened the half on an 8-2 run, reclaimed the lead six minutes in and never trailed again.
Rogers led Wando with 17 points, Pegram added 15 and eight rebounds and Amp Moore scored 13. Wando outrebounded Porter-Gaud 44-26 and scored 20 points off second-chance opportunities.
Eaton says he was happy with how his team competed at different times in the tournament. He says improving consistency throughout a game is a main priority moving forward. Wando travels to Carolina Forest Friday for the first of its last four regular-season games before tipping off its Region VII slate Dec. 17 at Cane Bay.
"Our players and coaches have to bounce back mentally," Eaton said. "Losing sucks but we have to get over it, work on correcting some of our mistakes and get back to what we do."
St. John's (D.C.) topped Imhotep (Pa.) 68-54 in the International Bracket championship game, while Goose Creek claimed the Foundation Bracket championship with a 59-51 win over North Gwinnett (Ga.). Follow @fjmansfield //

Hot Links: Ex-Dallas judge embarrasses TYC; smuggling scandal also hits adult prison system
Today's a waking nightmare for the Texas officials who are paid to keep dangerous folks locked up:
1. Catherine Evans (right), a former state district judge in Dallas County, faces a felony charge of trying to smuggle a knife and other contraband into a Texas Youth Commission facility, reports Christy Hoppe of The Dallas Morning News. That's embarrassing all by itself. It's made worse by the fact that Gov. Rick Perry recently named Evans TYC ombudsman — a job in which she was supposed to make sure that juveniles in state lockups were kept safe from harm. Evans has resigned and could not be reached for comment Monday. Why do we need an ombudsman? Well, the agency has a history of physical and sexual abuse scandals, as The News showed in a 2007 series of investigative reports.
Do you have a tip about TYC? TDCJ? Send me an e-mail and let me know. Or join the conversation by commenting below.

When a guy takes a shit on his girl's face. While she's trying to wipe it all off, the man punches her in the face so that blood comes gushing out of her nostrils and mixes with the brown feces on her face. As she's screaming in agony, the guy brings two hoes in, and they go ahead and get their ass cheeks pressed against both sides of the girl's head, giving her the "buns". If that wasn't "sloppy" enough, the hoes will proceed to take massive shits in her ears. If she, for some reason, doesn't want to go through it again, find another girl. If this can't be done, use one of the hoes.

Village Council has reached an apparent resolution with rental property owners regarding a proposed renter registration ordinance presented last month.
At a Zoning Committee meeting Wednesday night attended by several rental property owners, council agreed to have Village Solicitor Walter Newton redraft the original ordinance and present it as a new one at a later meeting. Presented with the purpose of revealing occupants living in rental units in the village so that the tenants can be cited for zoning violations instead of the property owner, the redrafted ordinance will include several changes to appease the concerns of the landlords, who opposed the ordinance Zoning Inspector John Rydarowicz presented at the Nov. 21 meeting.
The new ordinance will no longer include a requirement to purchase insurance, eliminate the fourth-degree misdemeanor penalty for not registering tenants over the age of 18, only require a property agent for out-of-state owners and require the Zoning Department to issue renewal reminders to property owners.
The landlords responded at the last council meeting to the first reading of the ordinance in November with a letter from an attorney the group of owners solicited with intentions to challenge the ordinance if it passed as presented. The group did not like that rental property owners would have to purchase insurance when private and commercial property owners do not, that the owners would be required to open rental units to inspection and that a property agent would be required for owners residing 10 miles outside village limits. The group also took offense to council passing a first reading of the ordinance after allegedly previously agreeing to first discuss the matter with the landlords.
The redrafted ordinance will still require owners to pay a $15 registration fee and $10 annual renewal fee per property, list the occupants living in the units and make the units available for inspection when needed.
Newton noted that the fourth-degree penalty for owners not registering each resident over 18 was aimed at people who thumb their nose at the ordinance, but council agreed with property owner Dan Valentine, a former councilmember, that it would be too difficult for the property owner to stay in compliance and that the responsibility should be on the tenants to provide that information.
Newton also noted that the insurance requirement is being removed due to the fact that other property owners are not required to purchase insurance, not because the village is legally restricted from requiring it.

Tyler Kunkle '14
"The smaller, close-knit campus allows for a controlled, fun atmosphere; I think that's one of the major strengths of Elizabethtown College." --Tyler Kunkle
Although it was in his backyard, Tyler Kunkle '14 didn't find Elizabethtown College until the end of his search, when one of his high school teachers recommended he use the CollegeBoard.com College Matchmaker tool. He was looking for schools with a German major that were local to his Ephrata, Pa., home; E-town showed up in the results.
When he looked into the College, he found the International Business major and got into contact with Dr. Hossein Varamini, director of the program. He invited Tyler to campus for a face-to-face meeting, as well as a tour.
"The tour and the meeting really just made me feel like I was at home," Tyler said. "The close-knit atmosphere, like they say, feels like you're part of a family and I believe there's truth in that."
Tyler now is completing a double major in International Business and German. He also is involved in Student Senate, the Elizabethtown College Honors Program, Alpha Lambda Delta and Hillel, the Jewish student group on campus. He hopes to become more active in these activities as the treasurer of both Alpha Lambda Delta and Hillel. Tyler also held a part-time job at local restaurant, T.J. Rockwell's, which he hopes to continue in addition to working on campus in High Library.
"I think that the small number of people on campus maintains a controlled atmosphere, while still allowing for fun to be had and I think that's one of the major strengths of Elizabethtown College," Tyler said.
Since coming to Elizabethtown, Tyler believes he has expanded his viewpoint of college, and life in general.
He said, "I have come into contact with many people whose views on issues that I feel strongly about are the exact the opposite of mine and I have come to understand and respect their views even if I don't agree."

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
NSCLC is "Major Battlefield" as Merck,...
Developers of DTC Genetic Testing Are...
Advances in DNA biology, particularly those of the past three decades, catalyzed the emergence and expansion of experimental approaches to manipulate gene expression. Subsequently, these advances impacted protein science, a field that found itself increasingly positioned at the juncture of technology, science, and art.
A fundamental prerequisite for generating any construct, as part of cloning and protein engineering efforts, regardless of the experimental system, is the ability to grow cultures under controlled and reproducible conditions. Process scouting devices, which most frequently are disposable devices such as shake flasks, spinner flasks, or microtiter plates, are routinely used in research at the earliest stages of bioprocess development. One of their disadvantages is that they are not equipped with sensors.
Although temperature and agitation are the most frequently measured variables in experiments performed in these devices, critical culture parameters, such as pH, oxygen level, and carbon dioxide level, cannot be accurately and safely monitored. This is partly because conventional probes are often costly and difficult to use. Nevertheless, many processes that are foundational to large, industrial-scale experiments, such as the generation, testing, and selection of clones, are performed early in bioprocess development, making it necessary to collect real-time experimental information on additional parameters. Moreover, inadequate monitoring can also hinder the subsequent integration of the parameters from various stages of an experiment, when protein expression is scaled up or down.
"We are trying to make bioprocessing more intelligent and provide a greater degree of measurement at all stages," said Govind Rao, Ph.D., professor of chemical, biochemical, and environmental engineering and director of the Center for Advanced Sensor Technology at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC). A major effort in Dr. Rao's lab is focused on developing noninvasive, disposable sensors to actively monitor culture parameters during growth.
"Most biological processes are very complex, and many parameters change during the growth of a culture," added Dr. Rao. Recently, Dr. Rao and colleagues described the use of triple disposable noninvasive optical sensors that can be positioned inside culture flasks, and revealed that pH, oxygen level, and carbon dioxide level can be dynamically monitored during E. coli fermentation to collect information that would not be routinely available from shake flasks.
According to a paper co-authored by Dr. Rao in Biotechnology Progress in 2012, the sensitive element of the disposable noninvasive optical sensors is a thin, luminescent patch affixed inside the flask. The paper also noted that small electronic devices for excitation and fluorescence detection are positioned outside the shake flask for noninvasive monitoring.
This work marked the first time disposable noninvasive sensors were used to measure dynamic changes in these parameters, over time, in shake flasks. "We have now started working on next-generation technologies, and our goal is to bring the whole bioprocess to the bedside or to the point of care, and take personalized medicine to a potentially different level," said Dr. Rao.
Next-generation bioprocessing technologies target expression of biologics on demand, and there is a DARPA-sponsored effort under way at UMBC. "These efforts are paving the way toward next-generation bioprocessing, in which very well controlled protein expression can be performed at a small scale, in compact and low-cost systems, promising to change the entire biomanufacturing paradigm," said Dr. Rao.
Approximately 30% of all genes from all genomes sequenced to date encode membrane proteins, and their biological importance is additionally underscored by the fact that the largest class of membrane proteins, the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily, is the target of approximately 50% of the existing therapeutic agents. Nevertheless, most membrane proteins remain structurally elusive. This is vividly reflected by the fact that, in mid-2011, they represented only about 1% of all protein structures deposited in the Protein Data Bank.
"We have been using commercial cell-free systems to generate membrane proteins, which are the most difficult proteins to make irrespective of the expression system," said Shuguang Zhang, Ph.D., associate director of the Center for Biomedical Engineering and head of the Laboratory of Molecular Design and the Center for Bits and Atoms at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Cell-free protein expression has been used for over 50 years, but it is still a challenge to use this technique to generate membrane proteins. One difficulty, among many, is the need to identify a detergent that does not interfere with the in vitro translation.
"The most important thing, when making a membrane protein in a cell-free system, is to find the right detergent," said Dr. Zhang. "But screening conditions for membrane proteins is a very expensive and time-consuming process." Dr. Zhang and colleagues reported the production of several GPCRs, at the milligram scale, by taking advantage of Brij-35, a nonionic polyoxyethylene detergent. By using microscale thermophoresis and circular dichroism, Dr. Zhang and colleagues further revealed that several of these proteins were properly folded and that they bound their small-molecule ligands.
More recently, Dr. Zhang and colleagues reported that short, lipid-like peptide surfactants were comparable to Brij-35 in their ability to solubilize and functionally stabilize several different olfactory receptors purified from a commercial E. coli cell-free protein expression system. Further innovations and creative technologies are needed to accelerate membrane protein studies and thereby speed up drug discovery.
Recombinant immunoglobulins have attracted significant attention for multiple therapeutic applications, but one of the technical challenges accompanying their wide-scale use is the pronounced heterogeneity that can be seen, in terms of their behavior, when they are overexpressed. While certain recombinant immunoglobulins are relatively soluble, others aggregate inside the endoplasmic reticulum, forming electron-dense structures known as Russell bodies, named after the 19th century pathologist who first described them in myeloma cells.
Even though they are not exact counterparts, Russell bodies and prokaryotic inclusion bodies are analogous and phenotypically similar. However, while inclusion bodies are cytosolic and mostly contain the overexpressed insoluble protein, Russell bodies are inside the endoplasmic reticulum and, to a large extent, contain resident endoplasmic reticulum proteins.
"Even though the Russell bodies were first described about 120 years ago, nobody has associated these protein aggregates with some potential usefulness and value in biotechnology for recombinant antibody expression and production," said Haruki Hasegawa, Ph.D., cell biologist at Amgen. Capitalizing on the formation of Russell bodies, Dr. Hasegawa and colleagues developed an assay to identify recombinant immunoglobulin clones that are predisposed to aggregation.
"This phenotypic assay reflects the aggregation propensity, and becomes important at the earliest stages of antibody screening," said Dr. Hasegawa. The assay helps identify, at early research stages, clones that later might turn out to be unsuitable for producing recombinant protein, saving substantial efforts at subsequent steps during development. "Starting with the right clone ensures that every subsequent effort to improve expression will increase the yield, and this is, therefore, by far the most important thing to being with."
Previous studies revealed that relatively minor changes, such as mutating a single light chain residue, sometimes make a significant difference in terms of solubility, and determining whether the aggregation propensity of a specific construct will worsen or improve during protein engineering is another application where the Russell body assay is very informative.
"This phenotypic assay can guide protein engineering efforts to improve the expression fitness and make sure that one can obtain large antibody titers, which subsequently can be further increased with culture optimization," said Dr. Hasegawa.

Amy Winehouse's jailed husband Blake Fielder-Civil needs to be at home with his mother and not in a rehab center, his mother tells PEOPLE.
"I don't think rehab is the answer," Georgette Civil tells PEOPLE of her son, currently serving a jail sentence for assault and attempting to pervert the course of justice.
What is the answer? "Coming home to us," Civil says.
Fielder-Civil, 26, has been in jail since November 2007, and media reports said his application for early release this Christmas has been denied.
"We don't know when he will be released," Civil says. "I can't really say because I don't want to jeopardize our efforts."
Civil says she speaks to her son "sometimes every day" – but never to Winehouse, 25.
"I don't speak to Amy. I focus all my efforts on my son and getting him out," she says. Her last conversation with Winehouse was "about four or five months ago," she says. "I probably spoke with her one more time after court [Fielder-Civil's trial in June]."
Adds Civil: "I feel all the media attention on Amy has probably had an impact on my son's release. That's probably the hardest part of all. As a mother, what would any mother think when she sees Amy? It has had a huge impact."
As for how her son is coping with jail, she says, "He's doing very well. He's doing very, very well. He's helping other inmates – helping them with numeracy and literacy."
He's also been reading. "He sends us a list of books that he wants, and his dad buys them and sends them to him," she says. "He just sent him about another eight books two weeks ago."

Surfing Wamberal, New South Wales, Australia
Photograph by Nathan Smith, Red Bull Illume
Category: Close Up
About the Shot
The shot here is of one of my mates and fellow central coaster Andrew Mooney. He's one damn charger on a surfboard and he's got all the tricks. He now mainly concentrates on free surfing and is always great to shoot. The photo was taken later in the day when it was pretty dark at Andrew's home break in Wamberal, which is about 20 minutes from where I grew up.
I love late colors in waves and it always makes for a beautiful shot. I'm happy with the way the picture turned out. I'm sure it will always be one of my favorites. Surf photography is all about moments like this one. That's what I'm addicted to. —Photographer Nathan Smith
Skiing Whistler, British Columbia, Canada
Photograph by Eric Berger, Red Bull Illume
Category: New Creativity
About the Shot
This image was captured in a snowmobile-access backcountry area just south of Whistler. My friend Adam Topshee had scoped out some interesting ice formations that he thought would be good to shoot. We asked our friend Dan Treadway to join us.
At first it didn't seem like much, but as we began to explore, we found interesting angles and got more comfortable working around the ice. Eventually, I was comfortable enough to position myself in one of the cracks in order to shoot out toward the opening. I was pretty nervous and excited at the same time, as I realized it was a unique angle and had some potential to be a great shot.
On his first try, Dan sent too much snow down with him and I never saw him pass. I only saw a wall of snow pouring over the opening. The whole thing was coordinated with radios so that we could communicate effectively. Even with the radios, the moment was very short-lived as Dan passed very quickly over the cave opening. Luckily, I managed to capture the shot on the second attempt. It was pointed out to me later that the scene resembles a closing wave shot from within. Ice is just frozen water, so it's ironic in a way. I think it's one of my strongest images to date.

Flying Monument Valley, Utah, United States
Photograph by Daniel Grund, Red Bull Illume
Category: Experimental
About the Shot
During the several years I spent photographing the Red Bull Air Race, I was always looking for the truly special moments away from the race track—the sort of competitive flying that illustrated the whole sense of freedom in those spectacular locations.
On the morning after the Red Bull Air race in Monument Valley, I had the chance to set up this picture of two race planes flying near the track on a transfer flight. After a briefing at the race airport and a location check, I was able to direct everyone from the air to their positions. The weather and the light were perfect for what I had in mind. Alex Maclean and Nicolas Ivanoff were able to perfectly execute the idea, and they switched their smoke on at precisely the right moment. It all happened so quickly. Standing outside the helicopter on the skid, I saw the airplanes racing toward me at about 350 kilometers an hour.
The picture was ideally suited to be enhanced with a 3-D depiction because in this case the technology works for the picture and not vice-versa. The 3-D depiction was created exclusively in post-production. To get an optimal view of the 3-D enhancement of this picture you have to look at it with the red lens on your left eye and the blue lens on your right eye. During the preparations for the Red Bull Air Race in Monument Valley I had the chance to talk with one of the local Native American inhabitants about the meaning of putting on a race at this spot. She said the gods were most likely pleased about it—otherwise they would have prevented it with stormy weather or heavy rain. —Photographer Daniel Grund

About the Shot
Tomaszowski Vychlad is the name of a rock wall near Spisske Tomasovce village in Slovakia. I made the photo shoot in that region for the Polish magazine Gory, which means "mountains."
The main problem was talking the climbers into going there, as the region is known for its very dangerous and unsafe routes. The idea for the photo came into my mind only on the spot. Climber Michal Król was resting before the difficult final section of the route. I asked him to lean against the wall and enjoy the views. The use of a wide-angle lens created an amazing effect. —Photographer Adam Kokot

About the Shot
I met Stefan Lantschnerfor the first time that day. He was visiting Germany with well-known videographer Dominik Wrobel of Woozy BMX to gather material for a new video edit. I spontaneously grabbed my camera equipment and joined them for a few hours during their visit to Düsseldorf. We'd already visited some spots resulting in great material on video and film when I told them of a special place I used to skate at.
The setting was perfect by the time we arrived. Stefan entered the pipe and had fun. He rode it intensively for a while, so I had the chance to test various techniques. It took me a while to realize how massive this pipe actually was—and it only a piece of what was destined to become an even bigger industrial pipeline system.
Thanks to Stefan's huge motivation, I had the chance and luck to take this photo—we were all stoked about it afterwards. That day and this final location was an unforgettable moment, which I tried to capture with this picture. —Photographer Tim Korbmacher
Surfing Buchupero, Chile
Photograph by Chris Burkard, Red Bull Illume
Category: Illumination
About the Shot
It was a last-minute decision to go to Chile. We sat in the pouring rain for days and days waiting for the swell to come. We thought we had planned it perfectly, but you can still get a winter storm in the fall.
We woke up the morning after the rains to howling offshore winds. The swell was pulsing and the conditions were as good as they get. We drove to a spot in the afternoon that the locals had said, "rarely breaks." When we pulled up it was reeling left barrels for almost a football field's length. We scrambled to get out and surf. i was sunburnt and tired and had no idea how to document this moment. The waves were some of the most I had ever seen, so I decided to risk it. I sprinted down the beach and hiked up a sand dune to get a pulled back perspective.
The shore break was so big, and the offshores' plumes so high, that I was missing most of the best waves, but finally a set came through. The light, the wind, and the swell were perfect. It was as if everything in nature fell into perfect harmony for this single moment. As Peter Mendia eased into this wave, the backwash hit, sending a golden shower of water ten feet above his head, and sending him down the line of another 20-second barrel. —Photographer Chris Burkard
Skateboarding Guadalajara, Mexico
Photograph by Miguel Angel López Virgen, Red Bull Illume
Category: Sequence
About the Shot
I took this picture in Guadalajara, which is very well known for its skateboarding culture and locations. I was a little worried because I didn't have any pictures to enter this contest and there were only a few days left. So, I decided to take pictures of my friends' shadows while they skated at night.
I talked with a good friend of mine, Alfredo Salcido, and I asked him if he could help me take the sequence. It was hard because I only used a Sunpak flash and my radio slave pointing at the wall of a very overcrowded place. When I got the sequence, I quickly went to my office and edited the pictures together. But something came to my mind, and I didn't want to do a usual sequence that has been done many times before.
I wanted to make the sequence different, so I only used the image of when Alfredo first jumps in the air with his skateboard—and then used his shadows to create the rest of the sequence. From the moment it begins, all his movements can be seen right through to their completion. To give the image a title or describe the concept, I would name it "The Climax" because you see the best moment in the trick's execution. —Photographer Miguel Angel López Virgen
Surfing Shipstern Bluff, Tasmania, Australia
Photograph by Stuart Gibson, Red Bull Illume
Category: Energy
About the Shot
The day I got that photo was a really special day in my career. It was at my local big-wave spot and the swell was forecasted to be really big—one of the biggest swells we have on record for that wave. For those conditions to all come together—swell, wind, tide, sun—and to have surfers crazy enough to surf was just amazing. It was borderline un-surfable that day, the tide dropped and the steps in the wave were just going totally mutant!
Ryan Hipwood's wave this day wasn't the biggest of the day, but it was by far the heaviest. He had a lot of really serious wipeouts that day and went for the typical 'one more' call. Then this huge black beast filled the horizon. When it's this big at Shipstern Bluff, there are no two ways about it; you have to be towed into the waves by Jet Ski. The waves are moving so fast and drawing so much water from the reef that paddling is just out of the question.
The concept for most big-wave surfing and photography these days is pretty simple: get in the most critical place possible on the wave and then try to get out of it unscathed. The bad thing about this concept is that a lot of the time it doesn't end too pretty! The surf was too big for me to shoot in the water, as I usually would, so I have to praise Ryan.

About the Shot
In September 2008 I went to Hamburg, Germany, for the Red Bull Cliff Diving event, which was at three different locations over four days. The first spot was Speicherstadt, the largest warehouse complex in the world, built on oak pile foundations.
It wasn't easy to get permission to shoot there because the buildings are protected, as they are historically important. For a safe dive, the organizers needed to dig out a bit of the canal bed to get the four meters of water the divers needed for the high dives. We had just one hour of high tide to get as many shots as possible.
I used two cameras—one overhead above the platform connected with flashes and the second on the opposite bank for the sequences. Just before the session was over I changed my position to a bridge over the canal to get this angle. It was 4 p.m., and I shot against the sun. Because of the bad light conditions I decided to shoot in HDR to get more information in the picture. In order to avoid the typical HDR look, I manually put the five single exposures together. —Photographer Marcel Lämmerhirt

About the Shot
This photo was taken in Tallinn at the February 2008 Simpel Session, one of the biggest international BMX events, after a long day of qualifiers. Everyone was tired and looking forward to getting back to the hotel because of the winter temperatures.
The riders started cramming into the bus even though it wasn't leaving yet. The scene was taking place very quickly, and so I decided to take a few snaps without setting my camera or lens, just for fun and memory's sake.
I was very lucky to capture this unusual scene, especially as my friend Alex Baret had his face between the spokes of a wheel. He always has a very rock 'n' roll attitude and he kept the group entertained! —Photographer Vincent Perraud

Feb. 12, 1934 – March 30, 2013
Retired Army Reserve Maj. Henry S. Williams Jr., a laboratory technician, teacher, counselor and founder of the Buffalo Inner City Youth Fan Club for Golfing, died Saturday in Hospice Buffalo, Cheektowaga. He was 79.
Maj. Williams earned nationwide recognition for the BICYG program, which he founded in 1993 to use golf to teach at-risk youngsters about math, science, drug prevention, discipline and responsibility and to encourage them to go to college or join the military services. During its 18 years of operation, more than 500 young people took part.
Born in Goldsboro, N.C., he enlisted in the Air Force at age 18. He was sent to medical laboratory school, learned to be a lab technician and was assigned to the medical corps.
After a year in college in North Carolina under the G.I. Bill, Maj. Williams moved to Buffalo with friends and took jobs in the medical labs at Meyer Memorial Hospital, where he became senior biochemistry technician, and Roswell Park Cancer Institute.
Returning to college, he earned a bachelor's degree in chemistry from Canisius College in 1966 and became a clinical instructor in medical technology at the University at Buffalo Medical School.
During the next 20 years, Maj. Williams also earned a bachelor's degree in medical technology, a master's degree in health science education and administration, and associate degrees in nursing and mental health counseling.
Serving in the Army Reserve, he attained the rank of major in 1985.
Retiring in 1989 after 30 years in his lab technician jobs and 20 years in the Army Reserve, he became a nurse and drug counselor for Horizon Human Services. Later, he was an adult learning center instructor for the Buffalo Board of Education, a drug and vocational counselor for the Buffalo City Mission, and a GED instructor and transitional counselor at the Erie County Holding Center.
A golfer, he was impressed by the number of young black golfers taking part in a special program in North Carolina and decided to start one in Buffalo. For help, he contacted an officer he knew from Fort Bragg, N.C. – Lt. Col. Earl Woods, father of golf prodigy Tiger Woods. Tiger Woods gave Maj. Williams' first class a golf clinic when he came here to play in the Porter Cup in 1994.
The BICYG program earned numerous awards, including a Buffalo All-American City Civic Empowerment Award and the Erie County Council on Drug and Alcohol Prevention Award. Maj. Williams also received the Black Achievement Award, the Congressional Recognition Award and the Daniel Acker Community Service Award from the Buffalo Branch NAACP.
A scholarship was established in his name in 2012 for minority students attending Canisius College.
Surviving are his wife of 31 years, the former Mary C. Bonner; a son, Elder Henry L. Sr.; a stepson, the Rev. Stanley Roberts; five stepdaughters, Consandra Hatchett, Barbara Franks, Elder Lisa Roberts, Pastor Rachelle Moses and Xzonnia Young; and a sister-in-kind, Clynethia Smith.
Services will be at noon Friday in Antioch Baptist Church, 1327 Fillmore Ave., after a wake at 10 a.m.

Fleetwood Mac, "Rumors: Deluxe Anniversary Edition" (Warner Bros., three discs). It's certainly not news that Fleetwood Mac's "Rumors" is a pop masterpiece, a high-water mark in the annals of '70s California-based rock and pop. Very few self-respecting record collectors or rock historians would consider their collection complete without it. We all know the story of its creation – how the songs reflected the romantic turmoil within the band, as various relationships crumbled, principally the very torrid one between singer Stevie Nicks and guitarist/songwriter Lindsey Buckingham. What we may not know is what a fantastic live ensemble this particular lineup of Fleetwood Mac was. This new anniversary edition gives us a beautifully remastered version of the original album, with the inclusion of the revered outtake "Silver Springs" tacked on, and a whole disc's worth of alternate versions and outtakes, too. But the grand prize is the full live concert from the 1977 "Rumors" world tour, which takes up a full disc. This is the holy grail for Mac fans, and makes the anniversary edition a must-have. 4 stars (Jeff Miers)
Schubert, Erlkonig, Matthias Goerne, baritone, Andreas Haefliger, piano (Harmonia Mundi). Dear Franz Schubert, dead at 31, never outgrew his youthful knights-and-ladies days. He was the Viennese version of John Keats, walking the line in these songs between love and heartbreak, swashbuckling romance and heartbreaking sorrow. Goerne borrows a lot from the great Schubert singer Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau. His voice is his own, rich and deep. Goerne has a fine intensity and sense of purpose. The little-known "Schatzgrabers Begehr," the song of the treasure seeker, moves relentlessly forward, and so does the stormy "Der Strom," and "Normanns Gesang," a galloping song based on Walter Scott. Impossible as it sounds, Goerne even finds ways to add new terror to "Erlkonig." Schubert fans develop deep feelings for these songs, and Goerne does not always do everything I want him to do. But I am coming to the realization that he is a marvelous singer, and I love his commitment to Schubert. Pianist Andreas Haefliger brings out the mercurial nature of the often demanding piano parts. Three and a half stars (Mary Kunz Goldman)
Bartok, Eotvos and Ligeti, Violin Music with Orchestra performed by violinist Patricia Kopatchinskaja with the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra and Ensemble Modern conducted by Peter Eotvos (Naive, two discs). Would you believe a two-disc set of ultra-contemporary violin music devoted to Transylvania? As the notater here points out, it was not only where Dracula came from but where Bela Bartok did so much of his research into Hungarian folk music and where composer Gyorgi Ligeti and composer/conductor Peter Eotvos both came from. What is most impressive of all here, of course, is Patricia Kopatchinskaja, one of a large platoon of lovely and hugely capable female violinists who seem to be coming out of Europe bent on Lord-knows-what world conquest. She's from tiny Moldova and she turns out to be an enormously impressive violin soloist, giving Bartok's Concerto No. 2 suitable gypsy tang and abandon and both the haunting sonic disembodiment and weird sweetness of Ligeti's violin concerto from 1992. The conductor's own early work "Seven" completes her program with him. An ambitious, uncompromising and hugely persuasive program from a 35-year-old violinist and a perfectly apt accompanying orchestra. ∆∆∆½ (Jeff Simon)
Jonas Kaufmann, Kaufmann, Wagner, Orchester der Deutschen Oper Berlin, Donald Runnicles, conductor (Decca). The first time I heard Jonas Kaufmann, singing Schubert, I recognized quality when I heard it. He continues to impress in this Wagner collection, including excerpts from "Die Walkure," "Siegfried," "Tannhauser," "Lohengrin" and "Die Meistersinger." And there are two very cool touches. One is music from Wagner's early opera "Rienzi." The other is that Kaufmann sings Wagner's "Wesendonck Lieder." How often do you hear a man sing them? Kaufmann's tenor has a low timbre, almost like a baritone. I wonder if in later years he will begin taking on lower Wagner roles, as Placido Domingo has done. I can imagine that, because Kaufmann has so many wonderful things going for him. One is his sheer power. As Siegmund in "Walkure" he gets going like a steam engine, holding syllables so long and so powerfully that you find yourself thinking your CD is stuck. His lyricism mirrors the subtle, pensive orchestrations. In "Siegfried," his exchange with the Forest Bird is enchanting. Rienzi holds its own surprisingly well among the later operas. The Wesendonck Lieder take getting used to – Wagner specified that they be sung by a woman – but Kaufmann gives the songs the same dramatic, operatic beauty and intensity that I imagine more tenors will follow in his footsteps. Three and a half stars. (M.K.G.)
Frank Vignola and Vinny Raniola, "Melody Magic" (Azica); Vince Abbracciante, "Introducing Vince Abbraciante on Accordion" (Bumps). Europe's jazz community insists that we have nothing to fear from the accordion. On the basis of these two discs – one as American as apple pie, one from Italy featuring the most eccentric jazz virtuoso who will ever come out of Buffalo – you'll almost be inclined to agree. Frank Vignola's delightful "Melody Magic" is a wildly swinging string jazz performance of great classical themes that is so far beyond mere kitsch that it's close to hilarious. Beethoven, Grieg, Bizet, Bach, Mendelssohn, Tchaikovsky and, yes, The Beatles and Sting come into these string jazz showpieces by acoustic guitar masters and it's never less than a kick, even when Julien Labro's accordion shows up on four tunes. Not quite as consistent is Italian accordionist Vince Abbracciante, who has been musical company to the great bassist Juini Booth recently. Without question, the most unpredictable musician ever to come from Buffalo, Booth is a marvelous bass player who has appeared with Art Blakey, McCoy Tyner, Freddie Hubbard, Gary Bartz, Pharoah Sanders, among countless others, and even contributes three tunes to the disc by the Italian accordionist, including a jaunty recomposition of Kenny Dorham's "Blue Bossa." (Find the Abbraciante at www.thebumps.net/rec/records.) Three stars for Vignola, two and a half stars for Abbraciante (J.S.)
Grace Kelly, "Live at Scullers" (Pazz). So welcome a figure has Grace Kelly been that it was almost unavoidable that she'd be overrated. She is an alto saxophonist proficient enough to perform with the great bebopper Phil Woods without him feeling put-upon. She is also a plaintive singer/songwriter with no more compunction whatsoever about revealing her personal life through music than Taylor Swift. Who knew that a young female jazz star would come along like her? About this set from Boston's Sculler's Jazz Club, she says "I've been performing at Sculler's Jazz club ever since I was 13. It feels like my second home." She's more charming than accomplished at this stage but nothing if not fresh. Two and a half stars (J.S.)

sadly Olympics dream goal is out of reach for them
hope they can compete in Worlds at least
sadly Olympics dream goal is out of reach for them
hope they can compete in Worlds at least
Hi folks: I may have missed something, but did I see something stating that there would be a test skate for K/S on January 27? Or is that no longer taking place? Sorry, can't find the link, but that was a date I recall seeing as being the ultimate deciding factor.
In any event, I saw that the entries for the Olympics have been posted on Wikipedia here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figure_...3_Pair_skating - they list V/T, B/L, S/K as the three Russian teams.
Nothing's been posted on their Facebook page since January 5, just after Sasha tried out his jumps.
That said, I don't think K/S have any prayer of Olys at this point. The most they can hope for is Worlds, and that only (probably) if S/K or BL finishes outside top 10 at Olys which may or may not happen.
I think that 25th January is the date I've seen for the Russian team announcement? (I may be mistaken, though, and if so... corrections welcome! )
that's my understanding and apparently he is doing double jumps.
Kavaguti / Smirnov plan to compete in Russian Cup final in February
as already mentioned before he is now doing double jumps
can do normal thorws and lifts, even do tehir quad throw practices
lets hope they don't throw a quad and reinjure themselves at the event, they want to get ready for Worlds in Japan
hopefully get that 3rd spot over Bazarova / Larionov ?
some very nice practice photos http://gallery.ru/watch?a=1T-lrj8#feature=subsregshttp://gallery.ru/watch?a=1T-lrj8#feature=subsregs
"Speaking to the point, Sasha slowly recovering. Already jumping double jumps , a double axel . During training guys do a quadruple release , other elements. Hopefully if all goes well , the Russian Cup final show good ride . Upcoming Russian Cup Final will be for us not just start after a long break , and selection for the World Cup in Japan, where Yuko and Sasha really want to speak "- quoted Moskvin official website of Federation of figure skating in Russia .
Russian Cup final will be held in 2014 in Novgorod from February 26 to March 2.
the cake is heartbreaking
Kavaguti / Smirnov SP at the test skate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8e8qp0Fvq0
what a lovely program too bad no Olympics , but hope they can be ready by Worlds
music would fit well for their Japanese fans
i don't like the music, costumes or choreography. technically, little things need to be polished here and there.
he's ao handsome. i don't understand why the can't give him a decent haircut and good costume like here:
A quick update on Yuko & Sasha from their Facebook page. If Google Translate is correct, they will miss the worlds as we, and the entire season was a wash. We all kind of knew, but this appears to be confirmation:
Here's a recent exhibition in Moscow they performed the day after Sochi ended:
I'm sad it never happened for these two at the Olympics. They would likely have been the second pair on the team instead of S/K and gotten a medal. But I'll always root for them!
Ooooohhh! (sad sigh) I was really holding up hope for World's.... I do hope they continue next season at least....
At competitions where thy have gone head to head:
2011 Worlds: K/S 1 space above B/L. 2012 Worlds: B/L one space above K/S. 2013 Worlds K/S one space above B/L.
Euros 2011: K/S 1 space above B/L.
GPF 2013: B/L 2nd, K/S 6th.
In fact, a strong argument can be made that the teams are essentially equal internationally, with K/S possibly being Russia's #4 team, even with this injury not taking place. I don't like it. But facts are facts.
Additional question: but wouldn't Moskvina have had some pull in getting them a spot on the team? I know we can't answer that for sure, but I would guess if they won Russian Nationals this year it would strengthen their case for a slot. In any event, it's just speculation at this point.
does anyone have news about this pair ?
All I know is that they recently skated in an EX, and did not compete in the Russian Cup Final.

Oh girl don't bother with the dude in the hat, he's got brim syndrome. Once he takes off the hat he loses all attractiveness...weird shaped head.

I certainly am pretty much her entire world. But she's not all of mine.
There is so much I wish I could write about my boys, especially the older two, but as they get older I feel I should be respectful and limiting with what I can share and what I keep just between us. The sweetest of prayers, secrets in their classrooms, humbling and often embarrassing observations about life. And what goes on in the bathroom.
The tales I could tell.
Noah wears the same sweatshirt everysingleday to school. And it's not a sweatshirt he wears in place of coat. It's a sweatshirt that never comes off so it looks like he wears the same exact thing every day in a row. But if he doesn't wear his Tony Hawk Sweatshirt to school he won't be in the Tony Hawk Sweatshirt Club. Or something like that.
I sneak and wash it as much as I can and attack him with baby wipes in between that. And a little piece of me dies inside when he heads off to catch the bus each morning.
Carter lost his tooth in the car yesterday. And I mean he really lost it. We still haven't found it. Which means the Tooth Fairy is off the hook this time! Mean? No way. There's a TOOTH lurking around in my car.
Grayson. Oh dear. I need to start a whole other anonymous blog just about Gray.
So, sometimes, to be on the safe side and also to keep some super special things for my heart only, stories about my boys might be few and far between.
Someday I will be saying that about Ivy.
And then what will I write about?
Will you still be around when I have grandbabies?

Who's that lady?
Here Comes Honey Boo Boo's Mama June dramatically dressed up her newly slimmer bod Saturday at the GLAAD Awards, where her show was nominated for best reality series.
Mom to Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson, June Shannon, 33, looked chic and sophisticated (or as she'd put it, "smexy!") in a black wrap dress, plenty of jewelry and tasteful makeup.
"It was fun to get glammed up, but I prefer my comfortable clothing. I also missed my kids," June tells PEOPLE.
"I met Snooki and JWoww, which was great because we heard they are fans of the show," adds June of hanging with the Jersey Shore stars at the awards, which honored Anderson Cooper.
"I also saw Anderson back stage. We love him and congratulate him on the award," she says.
June can add her new GLAAD buddies to her growing list of celebrity interactions: she and her family also recently met country star Miranda Lambert.

in the early 80's, people in the projects with the money, clothes, and cars were the drug dealers, or dope boys. Nowadays, the phrase can be applied to anybody that keeps it fresh, has it together, or is making that money.
