Oh... well in the original dance, on a lift towards the end, they fell.  Barbara was very angry and it lasted through to the free dance. The partners arrived seperately and didn't talk until after the free dance in which they skated beautifully.  You see, the Italians were in the lead after the compulsary dance, good medal position for them. Then with the fall in the original dance, they lost the chance at a medal.

It's an Italian ice made with espresso. Put a shallow pan of espresso and sugar, plus liqueur if you like, and keep "forking" the frozen sheet that forms on top. Eventually you will get a fluffy granita. enjoy.\n\nI guess I was thinking "granita di cafe".

they are actors that entertain us.  also its a good soap.  he is married.  his innocent wife wants to have a career before  she settles down to never working again.  he gets mad and goes through mid life crisis and messes with another woman.  she gets pregnant so he leaves his wife to marry the other woman.\n\n they have baby and now, its not all fun and games anymore.  the fights have started and all of a sudden, the grass aint so green on the other side.

I heard that the story was from east of France, possibly even as far as Russia. It's a very old story. I'm sure that it had some basis in truth.

ok!\nthe zamboni was invented by someone called frank j. zamboni (obviously) \nfirst it uses a blade to shave the top of the ice that people have picked on and made bumps, holes, ect. \nthen another blade collects the shavings into a snow tank.\nthen, water is rushed through from the wash-water tank to the 'conditioner' which vacumes, filter and returns the water back to the tank. \nLast, clean warm water is spread on the ice by a towel (sorta like a squeege) and left to freeze. if the 'fridge' underneath the ice isnt cold enough, when you go on the ice, it's still obviously wet, but its fun for kids to play with!

i loved it. he really is king on ice. he was great (though i think he can do even better). he deserved gold medal. i also think Weir's marks were too small. he deserved at least bronze.

i'm not that familiar with the story, except that it is about witch hunting in a town. this quote, whoever says it, is someone begging Thomas not to get involved in witch craft. is it his wife? that would make sense, that she's begging her husband not to get in it because the town (who was full of people paranoid about witch craft) would charge them with the crime.

I read an interview in the London Metro (free newspaper) last week with one of the producers.\n\nHe said something along the lines of they had planned for 5 series in total, although would keep going as long as the Network want them to and they're are still getting the viewers.\n\nWould seem to suggest that if we want to know how it all ends, we need to stop watching (! eh? !).

It allows people to escape their boring lives. It is a continuous story that never stops. Did you ever find you get to the end of a movie or book and want to know more that's what a soap does it lets you know more. There's also nothing like the feeling of watching one and when they bring back an original character after years and you recognize them you can't help but say OMG I can't believe he/she is back. What are they going to do this time?

I've watched it ever since it began...looove it. It's very educational, informative and fun to watch. I too, have learned ALOT from watching it. What do you think of the return of Summer? I don't like it...but we'll see how she behaves now. She could surprise me.

So his name was Oetzi. The last news report was in November 2003, and that was the outcome of a italian court case to establish who could claim to be the finders of Oetzi. \n\nIf that interests you, then go here...\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/3239015.stm\n\nOtherwise, here are some good sites covering the discovery:\n\nhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/science/horizon/2001/iceman.shtml\n\nhttp://www.american.edu/ted/iceman.htm\n\nhttp://www.cruithni.org.uk/feature/iceman.html

Asking why 'they' stopped talking about it, implies 'they' were talking about it at one point.  And I am not aware of anyone ever talking about this.\n\nSounds like a conspiracy to me.
