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 :-)

Four-time Olympic gold medalist Janica Kostelic retired from Alpine skiing Thursday, saying she is enjoying life off the slopes more than winning medals. Kostelic became the most successful female skier in Olympic history when she won gold and silver at the 2004 Turin Games, adding to her three golds and one silver from Salt Lake City in 2002.
A five-time world champion, Kostelic has won 30 World Cup races and posted victories in all five disciplines in the 2005-06 season.
Personally, I feel sorry about her retirement, she was my favourite skier, and I really liked her style.

That's a big shame for the sport as a whole, by being forced into retirement in this way she and the fans have been robbed of a farewll tour as well.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

A great shame, but not surprising. I thought that she was unlikely to come back given that she's achieved everything possible, and has had so many injury and health problems. We will all miss her.
Now she was an example to up and coming youngsters - never mind the Miller-time sh*t.
