The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

[Icetalavista]

This is a Minister of Justice website article. Charlène and Marco are at all effects police agents and considered "State athletes", as they belong to "Le Fiamme Azzurre", the sport group of the Italian Penitentiary Police, which is a department of the Minister of Justice and which pays them a salary.

I'm quite sure they couldn't reveal there that they are going to retire, as that would make it quite official and they haven't made an official announcement yet.

I think you can all rest assured they will not deprive the younger generation of the competitive experience.

So if they officially retire the salary is gone? Your body can hold up only so long. Can’t they make money touring?

I think they just want to make sure they get paid through the off season, so they're delaying the announcement a bit.

That's generally the rule for salaries when you stop working.

Faiella remained with the police and made a career out of it.

I thin they are allowed some time to think about the future without fooling their employer, the government, and they must have some vacation time they earned anyway. I'm sure those concerned are informed on their status.

Published today on USFS' International Assignments page re. Worlds:
Chock/Bates (withdrawn 3/9)
Green/Parsons (added 3/9)

I'll be happy to see both of Green/Parsons programs again.

 

[BlueRidge]

I am really happy Green and Parsons get to go.

So with one official top five team withdrawing, ZingKol have a shot at fifth place if FearGib are clean.

Re GuigFab staying in - if they are staying in due to addition of required partial Golden Waltz - well, maybe it will get them a world bronze for next season, but there’s the whole rest of the RD, and the FD, to get thru and they are entering their late thirties…I don’t see any supposed benefit of knowing that one compulsory dance beyond even one season.

I’m annoyed at ISU for not requiring one whole pattern of the Golden Waltz. This half-a&&ed approach is confusing

That link isn't working, @Sylvia. Does Evan have his page set to private or something?

It works for me and I do not follow him

 

[Wyliefan]

Oh, weird. I've tried it several times and I keep getting "not available." Must be a glitch at my end.

Or possibly even better than fifth?
Chock/Bates and Guignard/Fabbri are not competing at Worlds.

For Worlds competitors:
Season's Best order is: (1) Fournier-Beaudry/Cizeron; (2) Gilles/Poirier; (3) Fear/Gibson; (4) Zingas/Kolesnik; (5) Lopareva/Brissaud.
World Standings order is: (1) Fear/Gibson; (2) Gilles/Poirier; (3) Lopareva/Brissaud; (4) Zingas/Kolesnik; (5) Reed/Ambrulevicius.

p.s. I am excited for Green/Parsons!
