• I swear the stream doesn't last 10 seconds before freezing, requiring me to refresh the page. I've tried
  
  
  http://www.federalspace.ru/316 (MCC-M / TSuP - this one doesn't open at all)
  http://www.federalspace.ru/317/ (Baikonur)
  
  
  As well as all four streams on Tsenki: http://www.tsenki.com/en/broadcast/broadcast/
  
  
  Any other links, or do I have to wait until NASA TV picks it up?

• is this the pad that was refurbished?   I remember some work had to be done and another pad was used for some time.   We back to the first pad again?

• Is there video of the astronauts actually entering the Soyuz from the access tower?  I have never seen video of that.

  That was for routine maintenance and on 31/6 for completion of recertification process to conduct manned launches from 31/6 while 1/5 is down for all/most of 2014 into early 2015. According the latest info I have is 1/5 will go down at the end of 2013 for the planned heavy modernization programme to allow Soyuz 2 series launchers and launchers with Fregat, Volga and wider fairings to also launch from 1/5. AFAIK all manned launches 2014 are still planned from 31/6 to allow for this work.

• Josh calling it Soyuz TMA "1" "0" M. I always thought it was Soyuz TMA "Ten" M. Might be an interesting learning curve if I'm wrong.
  
  Not that it matters much
