Article says Evgeny has resumed full time training the last week of May at the rink in St. Petersburg with Mishin as his coach.

He said in an interview in Mishin&#39;s office,  &quot;My idea is... I still want to win something. I have to try to become a two-time Olympic Champion. But... ]]></description>

<br>
<br>
This is a recent program Evgeny skated the end of last October from Russian tv. It is a classic Evgeny program. The violinist, whose name is Edvin Marton, (I
finally found out his name <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif" alt="image"> ) is at centre ice playing his violin. I enjoyed watching
it.

			<description><![CDATA[ There was a recent interview posted on Golden Skate/FSU with Irina. It says she is busier than ever right now. Her son, Artem just turned one and she is
enjoying being a mother. Says she is disappointed there are no medal contenders among the Russian women, but that there is a good program in place now so
things should be better in the future. She is still skating every day because she enjoys it, but does not feel the need to compete anymore and is happy with
the skating medals she has. Says... ]]></description>

			<link>http://elenaantonandartofrussianskating50985.yuku.com/topic/1554/t/Current-Russian-pairs.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ I am not thrilled about the current Russian pairs, though I feel there is a chance I may like Mukhortova-Trankov if Vasiliev is able to work his magic with
them, like he did with T&amp;M.
<br>
<br>
Somehow I just don&#39;t like Kawaguchi-Smirnov that much. They are sort of OK.
<br>
<br>
I heard that Ushakova-Karev have split.
<br>
<br>
We won&#39;t see Bazarova-Larianov for at least two years because he failed the drug test. They were the only young Russian pair I liked.

			<description><![CDATA[ First of all, I hate this Yuku board. I cannot figure it out. I have to login everytime, which I really hate. Plus the board looks ugly.
<br>
<br>
Now the news- sort of. At this point nothing&#39;s been confirmed, but it sounds like Obertas &amp; Slavnov want to make a comeback this year, possibly at the
Russian nationals. They are not listed on any of the GP events. They had great potential but from what I read, they were not working hard, so it did not work
out with Moskvina. Given the... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ The pairs field is very dilute, but is there a Russian pair that  can take advantage of this? Kawaguchi-Smirnov and Mukhartova-Trankov are the two top 'Russian' pairs. They are nowhere close to even the midrange Russian pairs of the past, as of now.  I do believe they will improve in the next couple of years, and the 2008 worlds are very close.<br><br>I see S&amp;S as a lock for worlds gold right now.<br><br>I think at least one Chinese pair will be on the podium.<br><br>Can one of the... ]]></description>

She is the second coming of Ekaterina Gordeeva. They placed 3rd but she is  only 14. They should have a bright future, barring injuries and the puberty monster. ]]></description>
