Something that wasn't mentioned in Tuesday's inaugural address: The Russians are way ahead of us in boob slip technology. (Following link NSFW).

It happened at the European championships in Helsinki, Finland, as Russian figure skater Ekaterina Rubleva lost a crucial portion of her costume while being twirled by Ivan Shefer.

The 23-year-old kept smiling, but with the next move requiring her partner to hold her hand above her head, the inevitable happened. Her top fell down, exposing her breast – but, ever the professionals, the couple smiled at each other and danced on.

They're only at 29.04 in the competition, good for 12th place. If you were scoring at home it was much higher, I'm assuming.
