I hope Yu-Na will win (actually, I'm almost sure that she will) and Mao will be better in LP, they're both amazing and there's no chance for others when this 2 girls skates clean... I also wish Alena to have another strong and emotional performance like she had at Euros and Junior Worlds... I can hardly believe that she might not even go to Euros and Worlds, because she was only 5th at Russian Nationals... But our FS federation decided to make an exception for her and it was right decision... We are so proud of her!
Oh, and don't forget about Sarah Meier! I find her one of the most graceful and beautiful skaters and wish her good luck!

Yes! I am so proud of both the charming Alena Leonova & the graceful Sarah Meier!
Alena's gorgeous smile and joyful exuberance and energy make me 
her personality. Sarah held up so well despite her injuries in the SP and I hope she continues to improve in the LP. I'd to see both of them in the top 10! Leonova is going to be exciting to watch develop towards the 2014 Olympics.
Yep, exiting! But Mao's doubling on lutz will make her not try that in the FS! Mao's jump base value is still around 50 compare to Kim's 40 points that's if she rotate all her jumps... joannie well i don't know about her in the fs... and yu-na i think was over marked... should have been around 72.00 or maybe slightly higher... so basically kim will go over 200.00 with out trying.
yep, i want that to happen too but if yu-na gets over 125 then mao needs to get over 135... but you never know... i think 200+ score this year though... i think the podium is going to be 1. kim 2. asada 3. rochette
oh and judging isn't great this year... rachel flatt 59?? alissa cziny 53?? and yu-na kim 76?? joannie rochette 68? a bit weird... i prefer those strict judging system like last year in sweden...

I don't think Yuna could lose now. I mean she is way ahead so she can relax and just do what she does in practice and she will win easily. For Yuna to lose, she would have to skate like Nancy Kerrigan in 1993 or Latitia Hubert at 1992 Olympics. I can't see her skating that badly. I want her to skate perfectly here and score around 140.

For those who are interested, I decided to compile ISU season FS scores for each ladies skater, average them, then add to the current Worlds SP score, to produce predicted standings after the FS tomorrow. Here's the top 16, by the numbers: (Sorry this table looks like crap in IE, looks good in Firefox though. Dang formatting...)
See, SP doesn't matter that much, LOL. Lepisto & Suguri meltdown + everyone else season average = 13 points for US. :agree:
(Yep, still not really likely though... sigh. But let's see how close the prediction is.

Her LP during practice....scary stuff!
Alissa fans should prepare for the worst.
I hope not. I wonder where Brian was. I only saw Linda Leaver back stage. Alissa needs a pep talk.
You can try this one; I believe it is Turkish TV and it has shown all of the Worlds live so far...I live in the US so I've been watching Universal Sports, but occasionally it will run too slow and they didn't show the OD at all, so I used this feed and it worked very well.

Hmm, still that LP practice was before the SP even happened.
I'd like to know how Alissa does in the practice today. Might let us know whether or not to still have hope.
Errr wait. I don't think there's a practice today. Bleh.

Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if this turned out to be fairly close, except for Mao Asada. Her season average LP is low because of problems in the early part of the season that she has now overcome.
Go Elena Gedevanishvili, the Georgia Peach!
As much as I want Joannie to win a silver, I have a feeling that Mao will end up ahead of Joannie in the end. Mao is a brilliant LP skater and hopefully she'll be better since the pressure is somewhat off. My personal wish is that Laura Lepisto will skate to her potential and win a medal but probably it is not going to happen.
