Jan-05-08		paulalbert: The photo that your link connects to shows Nadezhda Kosintseva on the left. Paul Albert

Jan-05-08		Udit Narayan: <paulalbert> Thanks for correction.

Feb-22-08		Udit Narayan: Whenever I recall the incident from this game, Korbut vs N Pogonina, 2007, I still feel incredible pain. Losing a game because you mobile rings must be the worst feeling in the world!!! (especially if you have a promising position) That loss cost her from winning the tournament.

Feb-09-09		brankat: Happy Birthday Ekaterina!
