Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Salzburg in Austria, Pyeongchang in South Korea and Sochi in Russia were selected as finalists by the International Olympic Committee's executive board for the 2014 Winter Olympics today.

Almaty in Kazakhstan, Borjomi in Georgia, Jaca in Spain, and Sofia in Bulgaria were eliminated from the race....

The decision was made by the Olympics' 15-member ruling body. The full International Olympic Committee assembly, comprising more than 100 voters, will make the final decision on which will be the host city at its session in Guatemala City on July 4th 2007.

The board based its decision in part on a written report compiled by Committee experts evaluating 11 different criteria, including sports venues, security, financing and government support. Salzburg came out on top in the overall ratings, with a score between 8 and 9 out of 10. Pyeongchang was second with a figure of 7-8, with Sochi next with 6-7. Almaty was fourth with 5-6, followed by Jaca 4-5, Sofia 3-4 and Borjomi 2-3.

The cities making the cut have to pay a $500,000 fee to cover the bidding process, and will be required to submit their formal bid books by January 2007.
