...it looks like Dove....and serious enough for him not to restart the race... Way to go JR, and we want our guys to win, but we don't want others getting hurt either.

huh? Duh? Wha? Ok, what's going on here? The ISU site has the Men's semi finals next (before the ladies- AGAIN!) It says it's 'official'....and the blinking screen has the ladies 1/4 finals flashing... .... ..... I'm so confused....EDIT: OK, we seem to be on the ladies Semi final.... Lana didn't make it.... EDIT AGAIN: And no Aly either....

Third for our ladies in the relay semi. They were obviously working very hard, and they almost had second. Italy has a number of talented young women coming up, and I knew they would be troublesome. I'm going to bet that the awesome pass for the Italians was done by Arianna Fontana.

Wow, it looks like they had to restart the first men's relay semi -- without Hungary this time. Bowling for skaters, once again? Luv2tap mentioned over at AJ.com that J.R. may possibly have the new Junior World Record for the 500. Last (found) was 42.173 on 12-01-08. J.R.'s time was 41.818. I knew it looked quick! ETA: Congratulations to our USA men! ;D On to the finals! (...and didn't they make that look easy...which we knew it wasn't.)
