I'm sure the skaters and coaches have been sent the practice groups. Usually, the practice groups are posted publicly on the ISU site by now, not sure what the hold-up is.

I keep checking isuresults.com for this with the years updated isuresults.com/results/season2324/wc2024/ shows up but nothing for https://www.isuresults.com/results/season2425/wc2025/

@AngieNikodinovLove (ANL) aleady bought two dozen. Easy to keep track of harem members.

The only person that should be collaborating on jeweled headbands for a skating event is the Goddess Tatiana Navka.

 

[Spikefan]

I think you meant this: . Although Barbara could collaborate too.

Well, and the ankle bracelets

Last week I reserved and paid for 3 spots lat the Saturday Skatefest, but I just got an email from someone at USFS saying that my registration is incomplete because payment is still required. So I replied back with both the receipt from USFS and a screenshot from my credit card showing it had posted. She said she'll have the finance team "look into it." Anyone else who registered for it get anything like that?

For those avoiding X, Jackie Wong is also on Bluesky

Those rinky little headbands would be lost in the lush locks most of his harem have.

Aaargh. Nothing yet and the color schedule is still the March 3rd version. Either the web person is off his/her game, or they’re keeping things very close.

And it’s last call for the Tuesday dinner in the North End. PM me if you haven’t already.

 

[YukiNieve]

Unfortunately it seems that I need to bring my work there.
My hotel does not have a printer and Kinkos is not nearby.
Anywhere else I can print from my flush drive?

There are two public library branches near the arena (West End and North End). I'm not sure of their services, but they may have printing facilities. The main library is near the Back Bay station.

I use FedEx Office to print when I'm on the road, I usually create a print order online and upload the document and then I just pick it up the next day.

How much do you need to print? Maybe look into a portable wireless printer that you can pack in your luggage.

Put FedEx Office Print and Ship Center in Google Maps. Locations all around metro Boston.

 

[YukiNieve]

Thank you so much! I did looked up FedEx and the closest one is a 15 minute walk from my hotel.

Well, time to get some exercise...

Try UPS, too. Most have printing facilities.
And if you have storage space, consider uploading from your flash drive to your laptop or tablet. From there, you can email the stuff you need to print without having to get to the place first. Or consider this place only two blocks from the Garden. https://www.alphagraphics.com/us-massachusetts-boston-us541

For self-service printing, you could also try looking into other options -- such as Staples, UPS Store [ETA: I see now that Aceon had the same idea], Office Depot, and the like.

Who knows, perhaps one of them will have a location closer to your hotel?

ETA:​

If I need to print something that is not of a confidential/sensitive nature at a hotel without a business center, sometimes the front desk will let me e-mail it to them and then they will print a hard copy for me.
For a work document, I realize that you probably need to be very careful, but just a thought.​

And yet... they managed to post about the ISU award nominations, that literally no one gives a flying f*** about.

And aren't even being handed out until July. Priorities, ISU, priorities.

Sunday March 30 is the date of the ceremony for the ISU awards -- only ten days away.

Update - USFS got itself together and cleared up whatever was going on over there!

 

[Aceon6]

Any insiders care to try to pry the practice schedule out of their contacts? I’m getting frustrated.

Maybe someone who is on X could tweet Jackie to see if he could share screenshots of the practice groups?

Will try… Done.

If you use the green line rather than orange (Back Bay Station) you can get off at Copley where you are just steps from the main library.

Quick response!

Sometime this weekend per Jackie.
