Petr Gummenik will be at the Junior Nationals too.
Speaking of Mishin & Moskvina, someone posted this nice picture on VK:

He looks somewhat like Sam Smith!!

Agreed, or after a lot of physical exertion. Ross Miner is ALWAYS beet-red after all his performances. Although maybe Sasha got a fake-and-bake or put on a little too much make-up prior to this performance? It seems to be a one-time event.

Yuko's blog:

At least I think it's hers...I can't read any of it. But she has some nice photos of Stockholm and Moskvina nursing a big glass of wine.

Moskvina did an online Q&A with questions submitted by the public (some might remember Plushy's Q&A for this site from a couple months ago):
http://doverennielitsa.ru/liveinterview/tamara-moskvina-o-figurnom-katanii-i-podgotovke-k-/28
Only a couple questions really pertain to Yuko & Sasha, but it's a very interesting read nonetheless (why did someone waste a question to ask about Adelina on DWTS, though? :scratch

Yuko & Sasha were guests on a talk show a couple days ago, and demonstrated a lift

Sasha is really a handsome guy, but he seems to be slowly turning into an Ooompa-Loompa, or Evan Lysacek.
I wish he would cut his hair, too.
K/S will be in a show tomorrow in St. Petersburg, together with Adelina, Maxim Kovtun & a few others.

thats why they had to WD from the SPb cup yesterday it seems :disapp:
I was pretty sad b/c they're my fav pair & I hoped to meet/see them & wish good luck @ the Worlds
But anyway I saw Tamara & gave her my bouquet & congratulated with the upcoming women's day (as I expected I was too starstruck to say anything else
+ she was talking on the phone)& lol she looked as if she tried to remember if we were acquainted or smth
LIke imo she should be pretty used to fans admiring her & giving her flowersI like Saha's hair

Well, I don't think they see the sun in winter too much in St. Petersburg, so perhaps the tanning salon is the next best thing?
As I said before...I'm not 100% sure if it's from the salon, but if it is, it's really dangerous and not a good look. :disapp:Sugarpova - how nice that you got to meet Moskvina, even if her star pupils weren't there!

According to Moskvina in http://www.sports.ru/others/figure-skating/1027883402.html, to gain more points at Worlds, some details have been added to Yuko/Sasha's programs, and they will learn new elements next season. In other words, Yuko/Sasha will not retire after the Worlds? Wow, unbelievable!

Yes! Woohoo! Frabjous news indeed! Love them - more glorious skating to look forward to - and new programs - can't wait!
But first - Worlds'. Please, K/S - go there and... slay.

I hope this means that there will be a change in their sbs jumps layout: even if it's absurd, a 3T+3T SEQ is more difficult but worth less points than a 3T+2T+2T
Well, I'm all for skaters competing as long as they want, provided their health allows it. (Is my memory wrong, or did pairs once retire before 30? Now they're all staying!)But yes, Worlds first! And maybe a title, finally. Then we can speculate about the new elements.

I'm glad they don't want to retire, but the Russian pairs field is going to be incredibly crowded next season. 
(Then again - did S/K say they aren't even going to do the Grand Prix? That would make things slightly easier...)

I wonder what kind of new elements? New SBS jumps? Or spins? Thow?
It's a little off topic, but I found this stuff on YT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhGUwUVrRhs. Pretty depressing but also moving portrait of S. Petersburg skating at those difficult times for Russia. Yubilieny's roof was falling apart 
. It makes me admire everyone who was working and training there even more. Lovely pics of Moskvina and Mishin as a pair, and Urmanov

Funny how little has changed in some ways. Now Urmanov is being forced to move to Sochi to coach. But Moskvina & Mishin seem to persevere through everything...what incredible people they are.
