...Checks and balances exist. Every yufu user is required to sign the notes they issue. Ultimately they will be called upon to redeem those notes by performing a service for the bearer. The specter of weeks spent washing other people's clothes after a yufu spending spree at the sake shop effectively limits the money supply. The moral: being your own central bank isn't so much fun when the yufu stops here...

The resulting pop tunes make a strong case for sticking to paths that are time-tested and crowd-approved, and leaving the funny experiments to the big boys.

Yagudin, who trains in the U.S., is a passionate performer and is eager to redeem his fifth-place finish in Nagano, where he was laid low by the flu. Plushenko is just as accomplished but far less polished. His program music is usually a bewildering pastiche of movie sound tracks, and the choreography is just as disjointed, but he never fails to impress with...
