One of the first-stage engines failed and the Ship crashed in Siberia with the supply payload. Scroll down for blurb, a little more in the August archive...

Thankfully, NASA says that between the extra supplies delivered by Atlantis and the 2 more supply launches (ATV & HTV) will be sufficient to keep the crew supplied properly though the end of the year. With SpaceX pushing to get Cygnus approved by the end of the year, there could be 3 supply ships delivered by the end of the year if needed.
