An observing poster at the Ubuntu forums unearthed what he says are screenshots of the upcoming Novell Linux Desktop 10. "I was snooping around for details about Novell Linux Desktop 10 and stumbled upon an internal Novell Desktop Design wiki. Most of the pages were unavailable without logging in but I found a few pics by going through their 'Recent Changes' page." So, are they for real? My take: Whether these are real shots of NLD 10, or just 'mere' mockups, they in any case show that Novell is willing to differentiate itself from its competitors. Which is a good thing.

I bet you never thought you'd see a Topshop dress at the 2011 Met Gala.
Ginnifer Goodwin was one of the best dressed of the night wearing a custom Topshop Unique green silk twist front gown.
The long sleeve gown has some sexy cut-out details around the waist and a thigh-high split.
Her dress was paired with a stunning necklace with green and turquoise.
Navy Aperlai 'Karine' heels with cream and turquoise straps and a Kotur navy clutch completed her look.
I love her eye make-up. It's very complement to her look without being too overbearing.

Some jeers and tears in these random thoughts for a Tuesday:
Some jeers and tears in these random thoughts for a Tuesday:
� The famed Eisenhower Tree on the 17th fairway at Augusta National, home of the Masters golf tournament, was cut down Sunday because of damage from an ice storm. It would be cool to install a giant windmill in its place.
� The late Rick Majerus would have been 66 on Monday. In March 2012, he said his Saint Louis Billikens would be a top-10 team "in about three years." Saint Louis is ahead of his prediction, ranked No. 10 in this week's Associated Press men's college basketball poll.
� Former Browns legend Jim Brown turned 78 on Monday. Not only one of the greatest running backs of all time, but one of the greatest athletes of all time.
� Former Bulls great Michael Jordan turned 51 on Monday, just a week after becoming the father of twin girls.
� Last week, it was colder in Atlanta, where the 1996 Summer Olympics were held, than in Sochi, Russia, where the 2014 Winter Olympics are taking place.
� Lincoln graduate Brandin Cooks, the Biletnikoff Award winner as the nation's top collegiate receiver in 2013 as a junior at Oregon State, is scheduled to appear at the NFL combine on Sunday to be evaluated in advance of May's draft. Cooks was productive his last two seasons in college with 195 receptions for 2,881 yards and 21 touchdowns.
� What if the winning conference of the NBA All-Star Game decided home-court advantage for the NBA Finals? That's how peculiar Major League Baseball is in having the winning league of its All-Star game have the home field for in World Series.
� The NBA should look into dividing its All-Star teams like the NFL did this year for the Pro Bowl - have two former players act as captains and pick sides, like a pick-up game.
� Giants third baseman Pablo Sandoval said he took his teammates' advice to heart and shed some 40 pounds this offseason not because he's in a contract year but because he wants to help to his team win a championship. Said the Panda: "I put in my mind I needed to grow up like a person, like a human being, and take my job seriously. That's what I did."
� T.J. Oshie gained fans by scoring four shootout goals in the Americans' 3-2 win over Russia on Saturday in the Olympic men's hockey preliminaries, and possibly more following the thrilling game when a reporter asked him if he felt like a hero: "The American heroes are wearing camo," Oshie said. "That's not me."
� Some moments in sports seem torn from Hollywood scripts. Take Austin Dillon, for instance, who earned the pole position for Sunday's Daytona 500 in a car bearing the No. 3 of the late Dale Earnhardt Sr., whose former boss, Richard Childress, is Dillon's grandfather. Dillon will be the talk of racing this week.

Several industry analysts believe Google and Samsung are working on a Nexus 10 tablet, but there have been conflicting reports about when the device will be unveiled. Some think it will come this year and others are pointing at the first half of next year. According to some recently leaked pictures, the device is already in testing, which could be a hint that a release is coming soon.
Keep in mind these things can be easily faked, but a Google employee and Samsung employee have both uploaded pictures to Picassa that were taken by a device called "Nexus 10." We could totally be getting trolled, but why would employees of both companies involved with this rumored device both upload photos?
The Nexus 10 is rumored to include a 2,560 x 1,600 display and Samsung's Exynos 5 (ARM Cortex-A15) processor. We speculated that production issues with either of these components might have delayed the release of this tablet, but Samsung just announced a new Chromebook that features their Exynos 5 chip.
High-end Android tablets haven't exactly sold that well, so Google and Samsung will have to really impress us with something new if they want people to rush out and buy a $500 tablet. Google is expected to release Android 4.2 later this month, so maybe there will be some new featured geared towards tablet users.
If Google were to announce the rumored Nexus 10 this year, they would have to do it at the Android event they have planned for October 29th. We are headed to New York to check out Google's big press event, so it won't be long before we find out what they have been up to.
What do you think about the odds of Google announcing the Nexus 10? Are you in the mood to purchase a high-end Android tablet?
Thank you Brandon for the tip.

V DAY: Diana Vreeland fever is about to hit Europe. Jean Paul Gaultier has already booked his ticket for Claire Nadeau's critically acclaimed stage portrayal of the iconic American fashion editor in "La Divine Miss V." due to open at Paris' Rond Point theater on Wednesday. Directed by Jean-Paul Muel, the show is an adaptation of Mark Hampton and Mary Louise Wilson's play, "Full Gallop," based on Vreeland's memoirs. Meanwhile, Milan Fashion Week will see the opening of Luna magazine's exhibition "Vreelandesque," held at Villa Necchi Campiglio. The event will run Sept. 24 to 26.
This story first appeared in the September 16, 2008 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
THEN & NOW: The young are traditionally supposed to learn from their elders, but Sigerson Morrison is reversing the dictum. The 17-year-old New York accessories firm has collaborated with Pringle of Scotland, the 193-year-old ready-to-wear brand, on a footwear collection for spring. Designs include napa mules with draped straps and knots in cream, gray and dusty pink. "We have really enjoyed sharing the process of building these shoes with Clare [Waight Keller, Pringle's creative director] and her team," said designer Kari Sigerson. "It seems that we have a common language of styles," added Miranda Morrison. Pringle's spring collection will be shown in Milan on Sept. 22. The Sigerson Morrison for Pringle line will be sold in Sigerson Morrison stores beginning in February.
HOPING FOR HOSIERY: "Your ankles remind me of my father's," Vera Wang said to a model at her private showing of the spring Lavender Label collection. "It's true, they do. My father used to wear these sheer silk socks just like those. It's very Chinese." The designer, who already has signed a license for Lavender Label shoes and bags, said she would like a hosiery license to be in her near future. "Hosiery is such a fascinating category, especially since I'm such a legging girl," Wang said. "Maybe Hanes will come find me. It would be such a natural."
BACKSTAGE BLOGGERS: It looks as if backstage gossip will soon be a thing of the past. Loose-lipped — and marketing minded — makeup artists from MAC Cosmetics are now "twittering" as they prep models this season. The MAC Pro team is penning microblogs, or "twitter," about backstage happenings and trends, which will appear on Facebook. In addition, they plan to trial products in development, including a moisturizing foundation, a concealer, a lip gloss, a loose pigment formula, a mineral cake eyeliner and eye base.
GOING FOR GOLD: Who said all that glitters isn't gold? Not London-based Belmacz jewelry designer Julia Muggenburg, who's added flecks of the precious metal to a multipurpose beauty balm dubbed Halo. The ointment, which bowed in stores including Barneys New York and Colette on Monday, also comprises crushed pearls, rose-hip oil and cocoa butter. It's priced at 38 pounds, or $68, at current exchange. "The gold gives pleasure," said Muggenburg. "It has a nice way of blending into the formula once you apply it." Belmacz's nascent beauty lineup also includes gold-flecked lip glosses and Oyster Pearl Powder.

BANGOR, ME – It was all Hawks on Saturday in Bangor, ME as Hartwick outscored the host Husson Eagles 45-0 in the first half of play en route to a 55-14 victory to start the season. The Hawks led 30-0 less than two minutes into the second quarter.
Hartwick's defense was the story on the day as the unit allowed just 160 yards of total offense by the Eagles, including -31 yards rushing. Hartwick defenders also accounted for 10 points on an interception return for a touchdown and two safeties. 'Wick registered 10 sacks for 69 yards and finished with four interceptions.
Junior quarterback Mike Mathews (Pound Ridge, NY) threw for 159 yards and three touchdowns on 7-for-15 passing. Sophomore Brandon Beatty (Ballston Lake, NY) had the team-high in rushing yards with 58 and junior wide receiver Frankie Molina (Middletown, NY) caught three passes for 81 yards.
The Hawks jumped out to a quick lead as Mathews and Molina connected on a 60-yard touchdown pass on just the second play from scrimmage and 'Wick tacked on the extra point from junior Alex Tesoriero (Rensselaer, NY) for a 7-0 lead 45 seconds into the game.
Junior linebacker Bryan Schweitzer (Babylon, NY) quickly got the ball back for the Hawks as he picked of Husson quarterback Kash Keezer's first throw of the game with 13:30 left in the first quarter. With a first and goal from the Husson six yard-line, Hartwick couldn't punch the ball in and they settled for a Tesoriero 25-yard field goal to extend the margin to 10-0.
After both teams punted on their next possessions, freshman defensive back Dante Crump (Kingston, NY) would pick off Keezer twice in just a 50-second span to blow the game open. His first interception set up a Joseph Rosiecki (Montgomery, NY) 2-yard touchdown run, his first in a Hartwick uniform. Crump quickly intercepted Keezer again and returned the ball 30 yards for a pick-six for a 23-0 lead. It marks just the 13th time in Hartwick history a Hawk has returned an interception back for a touchdown.
Early in the second the lead grew to 30 points. Mathews hit Tanner Williams (Eagle Bridge, NY) for a 12-yard score to cap a six-play, 52-yard drive and Tesoriero added the extra point for a 30-0 edge with 13:29 left in the opening half.
With 4:53 left in the second quarter, Mathews registered his third touchdown pass of the day, this time to Shaun Eichner (Pine Bush, NY) for 25 yards. Keegan Corbett (Bennington, VT) then hit John Horner (Bedford Hills, NY) for a 25-yard strike with 27 seconds to play and the half would end with Hartwick leading 44-0.
In the first half, Hartwick limited the Eagles to just one yard of offense and two first downs. The Hawks also allowed Husson across the 50 yard-line just once in the half, and that was to the Hartwick 49.
Both teams punted on their first possessions of the second half. The host Eagles then got on the scoreboard after a 7-play, 69-yard drive. Keezer found wide receiver Ben Foss for a 30-yard touchdown and the extra point made the score 44-7.
'Wick punted on the ensuing possession and again the Eagles countered. A Keezer-to-Foss 61-yard touchdown pass would cut the lead to 30 points. The third quarter would end with the score 44-14 Hartwick's favor.
In the fourth quarter, the Hawks pinned the Eagles deep in their own end of the field on two consecutive possessions and they came up with the big plays to register a pair of safeties. Senior Coleman Jennes (Schenectady, NY) and freshman C.J. Stone (Schenectady, NY) made the plays to enter the Hartwick history book. It marks the first time in program history two Hawks have earned safeties in the same game.
Sophomore running back Ryan Manning (Watervliet, NY) would break free for a 32-yard touchdown run on the next Hawks' drive and Tesoriero added the final point with 1:54 to play for the 55-14 score line.
Nine different Hawks recorded sacks on the day in a balanced effort. Mike Parody (Clay, NY) and Clyde Miller (Rochester, NY) each led 'Wick with four tackles. Parody also forced a fumble and Steven Grzeskowiak (Schenectady, NY) had an interception for the Hawks.
Keezer finished the game with 191 yards passing on just 14-of-30 passing. Devin Sherman caught a team-best six passes for 60 yards. Defensively, Ernest Wiggins made a game-high 11 tackles with four tackles for a loss and 3.5 sacks.
Hartwick returns to action next weekend in its home opener against Morrisville State. The Mustangs and Hawks clash at Wright Stadium on Saturday September 8 at 1 p.m.

Blaise Matuidi believes Paris Saint-Germain have shown that they have what it takes to compete with the best following their 2-2 Champions League draw against Barcelona.
The holding midfielder netted a late equaliser to help PSG to a hard-fought draw in the first-leg of the quarter-final tie, and Matuidi was content with the final result.
"I am quite satisfied. We played well tonight against the best team in the world. We showed we could compete with the best. We proved that PSG have a soul and a real team. People will be able to count on us in the Champions League for the next few years," Matuidi was quoted as saying on the official Uefa website.
"There was a magical atmosphere and I think we gave the French public a lot of pleasure. We played with our heart and showed courage. The feeling in the dressing room after the game was a bit mixed. We were happy but also a bit frustrated by the scoreline. We had as many chances as them, if not more.
"It is going to be very difficult over there. They have scored two away goals, but it is great that we equalised at the end. We will try to replicate our performance in Barcelona.
"I am happy to have scored, but unfortunately I will be suspended for the second leg. I will be the team's number one fan over there."
The return at Camp Nou will be played on April 10.

Ever wondered why the plimsoll is called that? According to Nicholette Jones' book The Plimsoll Sensation in the 1870s it got the name because the coloured horizontal band joining the upper to the sole resembled the Plimsoll line on a ship's hull. So just like the Plimsoll line on a ship, if water got above the line of the rubber sole the wearer would get wet.
So now we're officially in summer, we can safely get out our plimsolls! (and hopefully avoid trench foot following a British summer…)
So much cooler than trainers, here's our top ten plimsolls to step out in this summer.

10 Topics Kanye West Will Address On His New Album
Finally, some new Kanye West music is on the way. A cryptic Yeezy tweet last week ("June Eighteen") appears to indicate that Ye has something in store for us. Plus, he's been confirmed as the musical guest for the season finale of Saturday Night Live on May 18. So it's likely that he's preparing new songs—and, further, a new album—soon.
We haven't heard a single—or even a snippet—from the project. We don't have an album title or any artwork, either. And we don't know who will appear on the album or what kind of sound Kanye is going for this time around. But one thing we do know is that Mr. West will have a lot to talk about on the project, regardless of when it drops. Here, 10 topics we think Ye will (and has to) address.

There's nothing like the name of a top business school to make your resume more appealing to employers—which is probably why so many people are tempted to lie about it. Even for those who have the acumen and ability to cope with the workload, there are a couple of major drawbacks to signing up for an MBA: namely the cost, and the time out of the workforce.
Small wonder, then, that traditional MBA programs are finding their margins being squeezed by shorter, more functional courses that offer the opportunity to specialize in areas like Big Data or entrepreneurship.
Proving that they're capable of employing some of the market analysis techniques that they teach, some schools are starting to fight back, offering more tailored programs, and innovative ways to take their courses.
The latest example comes from a school that is a pretty big deal in the MBA world: Harvard Business School announced recently that it is launching HBX, an online platform featuring a handful of its courses, for the low, low price of $1,500.
According to the Harvard Crimson, the course—known as CORe—"will be restricted to between 500 and 1,000 students from institutions of higher learning in Massachusetts, but will eventually expand to address undergraduates, graduate students in non-business fields, and young business professionals."
The school is also planning to introduce additional course offerings in future. But don't go getting too excited just yet: unlike other MOOCs, HBX is going to have academic entry requirements, and a fairly rigorous approach to testing. Whether employers will recognize it as a valid qualification, however, remains to be seen. Let us know what you think in the comments, on Twitter, or on Facebook.

Police cruiser, car crash in Goffstown
May 14. 2013 12:19AM
GOFFSTOWN - A two-vehicle accident involving a State Police cruiser forced the closing of a section of Route 114 in Goffstown Monday night.
Police said the cruiser, a 2007 Dodge Charger driven by Trooper Mark Dore of Troop B-Bedford, was heading northbound when it collided with a Toyota Camry driven by Bryan Vetrone, 24, of Goffstown north of Saint Anselm Drive.
Vetrone was taken to Elliot Hospital in Manchester for evaluation. Dore was not hurt.
Route 114 was closed for about an hour, between Saint Anselm Drive and Route 114A, as a result of the accident.
The State Police Technical Accident Reconstruction Unit is assisting in the investigation.

Posted on December 31, 2013 in Miscellaneous
I don't know about you, but to me, 2013 seemed like it was only about 3 months long. One minute everyone was doing the Harlem Shake and the next, they moved on to something called twerking. It felt like just yesterday that I was writing my 2012 year in review. Weren't we just talking about Rafael Nadal's comeback? But here we are, at the end of the 2013, less than 1 month away from the 2014 Australian Open. And Rafa's knee, much like Miley Cyrus, appears to be alive and well.
These past 12 months can be summed up in 2 words: Rafa, Serena. Both had spectacular seasons and both went into 2013 with question marks. Rafa with his knee and Serena with her age (which, at 32, is considered "over the hill" in tennis years). And yes, let's not forget that this was the year Andy Murray got the monkey, well, more like Godzilla, off his back by winning Wimbledon.

A key Republican House chairman said Wednesday he sees the need to bring illegal immigrants already in this country into legal status, and perhaps allow some of them to eventually obtain citizenship — suggesting new potential common ground with a bipartisan group seeking to overhaul the nation's immigration policy.
A key Republican House chairman said Wednesday he sees the need to bring illegal immigrants already in this country into legal status, and perhaps allow some of them to eventually obtain citizenship — suggesting new potential common ground with a bipartisan group seeking to overhaul the nation's immigration policy.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte has said in the past that he opposes a pathway to citizenship for the estimated 11 million illegal immigrants in the U.S.
But at a Christian Science Monitor breakfast with media, Goodlatte expanded on that, saying that once legalized, immigrants could potentially avail themselves of the existing ways to attain citizenship — either through family or employer sponsorship. The approach could leave illegal immigrants facing a lengthy and difficult process before citizenship becomes a possibility.
"Having a system where if you have now a lawful status and then you have another opportunity, whether it's employment based or whether it's family based, to be able to legalize your status in the future, those are good opportunities we could address," the Virginia Republican told reporters.
The Senate bipartisan group supports a more direct pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants, though it would be conditioned on border security first, and President Barack Obama also wants eventual citizenship for illegal immigrants.
Goodlatte said that his opposition to a special pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants doesn't mean he wants to foreclose the possibility for them ever to become citizens.
"There's a broad spectrum between deportation and an easy, special pathway to citizenship to find a way to bring people out of the shadows and give them a legal status that would allow them to be better able to participate in our society, and we should be focused there," Goodlatte said. "Now once you have that status you can qualify like anyone else."
Goodlatte also raised the prospect of eliminating the current requirement that immigrants who've been here illegally must return to their home country for as much as 10 years before returning to the U.S. "If you address some kind of reform of that aspect of it you can avail people of an opportunity that they don't have now," Goodlatte said.
Goodlatte declined to offer details of what a legalization program for illegal immigrants might look like, saying he didn't want to prejudge outcomes in the House, where his committee is in the midst of holding hearings on different aspects of the nation's immigration system, including employment verification and agriculture guest worker programs. Goodlatte said the approach should be deliberate and the issue doesn't necessarily need to be dealt with all at once in a single bill, as Obama and senators working on the issue support.
But he pledged action by his committee to improve the nation's broken immigration system.
"I believe you'll see the Judiciary Committee produce good legislation on this issue this year," he said.

The television and movie stars who turned out to Knott's Scary Farm were still of the age that looks forward to Halloween.
Young Hollywood Night welcomed celebrities in their teens and 20s to walk the "black carpet" Thursday night and looked forward to the haunted mazes and scary shadows of Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park.
"Halloween isn't as big in the UK, especially at this age," said British actor Dominic Sherwood ("Vampire Academy"). "As a 23-year-old, I've never been to anything like this, where someone is getting paid to intentionally scare the hell out of me. I'm really looking forward to that."
Kelli Berglund ("Lab Rats") said she loves Halloween but doesn't like to be frightened.
"I love scary movies, I love horror movies, but I hate getting scared," she said. "I'm just going to try to act confident and hope the monsters leave me alone."
Janel Parrish ("Pretty Little Liars") said she has been to Knott's Berry Farm, but the night marked her first time at Knott's Scary Farm.
"I'm a huge scaredy cat, but I love roller coasters," she said. "But I'm looking forward to the Tornado ride – in the dark with these crazy-colored mists; it's going to be great."

Today's Meditation
Jesus said to [the sick man], "Stand up, take your mat and walk." At once the man was made well, and he took up his mat and began to walk.
-John 5:8-9 (NRSV)
DURING a worship service, I listened to a song that was sung by street children who had given their lives to Christ. The song was about how far the Lord had brought them. As I meditated on the song, the words encouraged me and gave me hope. At the end of the service, I accepted Christ.
The most influential tool we have for ministering to others is our life story. Each one of us has a story different from that of the man Jesus healed near the pool of Bethzatha. When this man encountered Jesus, his entire life changed. He was healed and could walk. What Jesus did for him gave him a story he couldn't keep to himself. He had to tell others.
From my experience, I know that it is important for us believers to share our experiences of how we came to know the love of Christ. We can do this through a song, a poem, a play, or by telling our story. And perhaps someone will be blessed and encouraged, or even give their life to Christ!
Alice Mwikali
(Nairobi, Kenya)
Prayer: Lord, remind us daily that the story of our relationship with you has great value for others. Amen.
Thought for the day: Telling our story is a simple way to share God's love.

Actress-producer Kate Hudson says the pressure of stepping out of the shadow of her movie star mom Goldie Hawn was discouraging and daunting.
She advised girls to believe in their own talent and take risks as they choose a career path.
"Take a chance on your own talent and your ambition because if you don't do that, there's no one else who will," she said.
Hudson spoke at the ANNpower Leadership Forum, a week-long program that unites teens from across the country with women leaders in business, entertainment and nonprofit groups.
The "Almost Famous" star and Ann Taylor spokeswoman is a member of the advisory council that mentors the teen girls and recommends grants for community projects they create in their neighborhoods, from a healthy eating program to a clothing collection drive.
Joining the actress were Ann Inc. CEO Kay Krill and Washington non-profit Vital Voices Global Partnership CEO Alyse Nelson, who all answered questions from the young ladies about work-life balance, workplace camaraderie and fashion.
The annual forum is a part of ANNpower Vital Voices Initiative by the nonprofit and Ann Inc., owner of Ann Taylor and Loft.

Consensus Report
Global Sources of Local Pollution: An Assessment of Long-Range Transport of Key Air Pollutants to and from the United States (2009)Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate
Each report is produced by a committee of experts selected by the Academy to address a particular statement of task and is subject to a rigorous, independent peer review; while the reports represent views of the committee, they also are endorsed by the Academy. Learn more on our expert consensus reports.
Recent advances in atmospheric monitoring and modeling have helped confirm that air pollution can be transported aloft across oceans and continents, affecting air quality and ecosystems far from the original pollution sources. It is currently quite difficult to quantify this transport or its impacts, but there is evidence that in some cases, the influence of long-range pollution transport can be 'significant' from a regulatory and public health perspective. To help policymakers and air quality managers better understand these issues, the National Research Council was asked to assess long-range atmospheric transport of four key types of pollutants: ozone, particulate matter, mercury, and persistent organic pollutants. The report, Global Sources of Local Pollution, assesses the current state of knowledge, and recommends the creation of an integrated pollution source attribution system. This system will help us to better quantify and predict future impacts of transported pollution, and design effective response strategies.

Mont-Ste-Anne World Cup
Coverage sponsored by Maxxis, and Vélirium
by Mike Badyk and Rob Jones
After riding at the head of the field with 3 other women for the entire race, Irina Kalentyeva (Topeak Ergon) left them behind on the final lap to take her second win of the season by 10 seconds over Ren Chengyuan (China). Recovering after a nasty crash on the second lap, perrenial home town favourite, and two-time defending champion, Marie-Helene Premont (Rocky Mountain-Haywood) fought back to capture fourth place behind Sabine Spitz (Ghost International), and ahead of World Cup leader Marga Fullana (Spiuk-Tau Ceramica).
After much discussion and debate regarding riders being relegated to the back of the field due to late registration (see yesterday's Preview) no protest of any sort materialized from the women's field. Instead, the start was marred by a bad crash literally under the start banner. Katerina Nash (Luna) went down and Kiara Bisaro (Opus) went down hard over her. Bisaro's crash was hard enough to break her helmet, and afterwards she revealed that she had bruises and chainring marks all over her back. Nash and Bisaro were at the back of the field through the start loops. Both fought back valiantly into the top 30, but the effects of the crash were evident, causing them both to eventually finish well outside of their usual top-15 spots, in 37th for Nash and 39th for Bisaro.
Meanwhile, the cream of the field rode to the front on the first major climb of the course. Georgia Gould (Luna) led Fullana , Spitz, Premont, Kalentyeva and Ying Liu (China) with Ren just behind her. The rest of the field was simply shredded by this aggressive pace.
This group remained intact through the end of the first lap. Once again, the big first climb proved important, as Gould and Liu were dropped from the lead group. With her usual horde of family and friends at the finish, Premont was expected in the lead group, but came through back in 8th place 45 seconds behind the leaders. Premont described her crash after the race, while icing her shoulder, "I crashed on the second lap. I was with all the girls at the front and I was behind the Chinese rider (Ying) and tried to pass her and I did a mistake. I went over my bike and landed on my head and shoulder. I tried to go on my bike right away but I was shaken. I wasn't seeing anything wrong but I really had to focus to get going again. I tried to catch the other girls but I was really missing one good lap from the race with my crash."
Kalentyeva was sitting comfortably in the lead group of 4 through the end of the third and fourth laps. Fullana was still there along with Ren and Spitz. 30 seconds back from the lead group were Ying and Gould, with Willow Koerber (Subaru-Gary Fisher) a further 30 seconds back on her own. Premont was working her way back towards the front, and was only 10 seconds back from Koerber through the end of Lap 3, and then sitting sixth at the end of Lap 4, as the race entered the final lap. Koerber and Gould were fading, so Premont picked them off and focussed on the podium.
With the leaders still so close together, the decisive move was going to be made on the final lap. The aggressor was Kalentyeva. Her attack on the Zig-Zag climb (between the 1 and 2 kilometre marks of the 5 kilometre course) proved to be successful. "It was a very fast race. It was hard for me. It was on the steep uphill that I attacked and I felt really good on the downhill after that. It was at that point that I felt I could win the race. I was still worried about Marie-Helene and Margarita even after I took the lead. It was my day today. I won the race and I'm happy!"
Ren held on for second place, 10 seconds back from Kalentyeva. Through her interpreter Ren was clearly pleased. "I was happy to place well here. It was a difficult race to judge. I managed to have some energy left on the last lap and I got past the other riders."
Riding very strongly through the race, and always near the front, was Spitz. She finished third, 24 seconds back from Kalentyeva. She was somewhat disappointed with her placing. "Everything was going well for me into the final lap. It was a bit of a tactical game between us 4. Sometimes the speed slowed down a bit and everyone was checking everyone else out. I felt pretty good during the race. Kalentyeva attacked at the top of the Zig-Zag climb and right at that moment I was shifting and I couldn't get all the power into my pedals. She opened a little bit of a gap and my tactic was to stay at the front of the group through the technical stuff, through the single track, to control the speed from the front. But ultimately that tactic didn't work. However, we had worked together well up to the final lap. Everyone took a turn in the lead. Finally it came down to the last lap and everyone was looking for the right moment. Irina was the one who found it."
Premont came in 46 seconds back to enormous applause from the highly partisan crowd. "Because of the fall I was just trying to ride at my own pace. I started to feel better every lap. I knew it was going to be a fast race so I tried to go faster the last 2 laps."
Also having very good races were Lene Byberg (Specialized), in 10th, and Canadian Catherine Pendrel (Norco), both of whom started near the back of the pack after the late registration fiasco. Byberg is showing good form after having recently been diagnosed with low iron, andPendrel was ripping the downhills all race long and moved up to a fine 11th place finish.
Other Canadian finishers in the top 30 were Mical Dyck (25th) and Sandra Walter (26th). Walter started the race after having been hit by a car while warming up. Sandra went over the hood of the car and landed on her helmet (that cracked). She rode with a new helmet, but was told post race that she had a concussion.
