Barefoot Running ShoesHi CFE I am a crossfitter/ runner who is trying to get into pose running method. I was wondering what your guys opinion on the best shoes are? SO many corssfitters use Inov8s, are reebok flex and nanos a good option? and what about Nike Frees? They seem lightweight enough but is the heel to bulky? Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Endurance Ruck 6x400m w/ 36 lb (1:1 work:rest): 3:07, 3:00, 2:59, 2:55, 2:51, 2:47
Did not run ... just fast walk, but I couldn't keep my pace slower.
Looking forward to more rucking programming!
on Tuesday, April 03, 2012 at 06:36 am
RE:Barefoot Running ShoesCodey-- You want a racing flat. Depending on what you currently run it there is a progression to moving to a lower profile shoe. You are asking more from your ankle rom and hams, achillies, etc. Not something to be rushed or done all at once. It may take a couple pair of shoes to go to a racing flat.Nike Frees are not a good option.

CyclesWhat are the different cycles? I see today is E
Where would yoU find a,b,c etc... And how do you know which one to do
on Tuesday, April 03, 2012 at 08:08 am
The cycles are different numbers of week to allow someone to plan out X number of weeks before a race if that is what they want to do instead of following the site each day or if they need plan ahead based on what their schedule allows. You can start with the beginning of any of the cycles. The cycles do not build upon each other.

ultrahas anyone here used crossfit endurance successfully as the sole training method for an ultra-marathon? It seems to good to be true!

email@example.com have an idea how to work in the ruck component into the multi-sport RX? Thinking keeping it simple and just adding ruck as Rx'ed and embracing the suck. Thoughts?
on Tuesday, April 03, 2012 at 10:09 am
RE: ruck for multi-sportMark, if you're a triathlete, then the ruck will have little benefit for you. If you're a military athlete that needs to ruck and run or ruck and swim, then a 2-sport option would be ideal.
Otherwise, I will not recommend adding the ruck to a 3S template. 3S athletes have enough volume and intensity to deal with and adding an additional loaded movement would only compound recovery issues.

I just finished my first 50k a month ago and trained using CFE as RX'd with the exception of two long runs to test nutrition etc. I actually think I could have forgone the long runs (18 miles) and just done some really long intervals instead. In the past Kaitlin has recommended 3x5k TT as a great way to test nutrition. I had serious doubts about CFE along the way, but as I felt great running through the woods at mile 28 I was so glad I'd used the program.

RE:REWhat sneakers you would first wear when transitioning to a lower profile racing flat would depend on what you are currently running in and what the heel height is. Some may have a faster transition period if the sneakers that are currently being worn don't have a large heel.
What do you currently wear when running?

RE: dmk / ULTRAdmk,
The 4-Hour Body by Tim Ferriss. Tim uses CrossFit Endurance to train for a 50K in 12-weeks. Tim had no prior run training, nor was he ever an endurance athlete.
His 12-week training plan, which includes progressions based on his body weight/power ratio is outlined meticulously in "The 4-Hour Body" book.
I think Tim weighed 185 when he started the CFE program that's outlined in his book. You can take the weight he used divided by his body weight to see the % scale that you should use if the prescribed weight for him is too much for you ;)
Go get it, brother!

CFE Strength & Conditioning WODWhat is a good alternative for the row if you don't have access to one?
on Tuesday, April 03, 2012 at 11:31 am
new to CFEI'm newer to the CFE site and trying to make sure that I have the workouts figured out correctly: for the multisport (3s) swim workout what does the 3 x (25m/y + 50m/y + 75m/y) mean. obviously i know its 3 rounds and that my rest time is the same as my work time-- any info would be great. Tahnks.,
on Tuesday, April 03, 2012 at 12:39 pm
RE:CFE Strength & Conditioning WODIf you don't have access to row you could run. Subtract 25 m from the total distance for each 100m row. So for a 500m row you would run 400.
on Tuesday, April 03, 2012 at 12:43 pm
RE:new to CFEFor the swim wod you do 3 rounds of 1X25m/y, 1X50m/y, 1X75m/y. Meters or yards depending on the pool you are swimming at.

RE: new to CFESWIM: 3 Rounds: 25m/50m/75m
25m, rest the exact time it took to swim. So if you swim 25m in 15s, you rest 15s. Then you swim 50m, and rest the same exact amount of time it took you to swim 50m. Same for 75m. Then you start over with 25m work:rest ratio is 1:1.
Swim 25m = 0:15, REST = 0:15, then
Swim 50m = 0:35, REST = 0:35, then
Swim 75m = 1:20, REST = 1:20, then
Swim 25m = 0:17, REST = 0:17, and so on... Until you've cycled through 3 times.
The swims should be all-out efforts or as fast as you can go without giving up on proper technique and good swim mechanics.
Moving properly before intensity. Intensity before volume, then add in volume ;)

Ouch50 doubles unders for three rounds ummm yeah right
on Tuesday, April 03, 2012 at 03:57 pm
i have been running trail ultras for 5 years now and have been using CFE as my sole training method for the last 2 years and will continue to do so. my ultras have been anything from 50k to 100 miles and i can honestly say that CFE training has improved my times as well as my recovery. i typically will run around a dozen or so ultras a year with most being in the 40-100 mile range. it may seem too good to be true, but CFE rocks!! wouldn't train any other way!

New to CFEHey Guys
Did the SS WoD yesterday:
100m - 19s
200m - 35s
400m - 1:14
100m - 17s
200m - 37s
400m - 1:17
Used m GPS watch so distances varied abit over by around 20m, but whatever.
I have a newbie question for anyone who will answer, does anyone do other site WODS in place of the CFE Strength and Endurance WOD? I have been doing a mix of CF Main Page and my local Gyms instead - is this a good idea?

It was the most amazing experience we have ever had. It was for me my dream my vacation. We had so much fun. And because one person made the difference we are going back next year. Gina, she is amazing from the beginning to the end. No words can do scribe how incredible she is.
We loved our Jamaica home at Sandals Whitehouse so much that we've booked again for next year and are taking family back with us. Every single member of staff was a joy to meet, making sure that our good time was their priority. Cafe de Paris was an afternoon and evening staple, food was delicious (every single meal), entertainment fun ... No matter who you had a conversation with - guest or staff member people where happy to be there. Thank you all ... looking forward to October 2015.
This was our first time at an "all inclusive ". Norma and I were so impressed that we booked for 2015. The view was so beautiful. The service was fantastic. We were most impressed with Michana Reid. She treated us like family. I can't say enough good about this young lady.
This resort was awesome! The staff the food the entertainment. We have Never been to Jamaica but will be back. We did not have a butler and everything was wonderful. But I did notice things that the butlers were doing for other people and will look into that on our next trip.
This was one of our favorite Sandals resorts by far. The staff here went above and beyond for us. Love Cafe de Paris. I think all Sandals resorts should have one of these. I know all of them don't. But should be a given at all Sandals! The rooms and bathrooms were the largest we have ever had at a resort. It had a beautiful golf course that was included that we did not make use of but did take a walk over to. Loved all the firepits near the pool areas to sit around in the evening and the movie night by the pool
Just back from our trip to Sandals Grande St. Lucian and what a wonderful week it was. We renewed our vows and were so spoiled by everyone, it was perfect. And the new fire pits, love them, we met some wonderful new friends while sitting around the "camp" fire at night. This was our 6th Sandals trip and we loved them all, even our rainy honeymoon in 2004. Can't wait to book the next one!

I havn't used the TELSTAFF system, but I've looked at their demo software. We do a lot of 24 hour recall here and it is something I also would like to here about it from firsthand users. I understand it is configurable to your department's needs and routines. It is a proprietary system that requires dedicated hardware.

Any new info on Telestaff?
I am heading up a project to implement computer staffing (right now we use paper) for scheduling.
We use Firehouse for NFIRS and are considering using it for scheduling.
Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated!

We us it. Can't comment on it from an Admin side, but it works well on the Field side. I know we also use it to staff our FPB, Training and other support divisions, along with the suppression battalions.
I'm sure if you contacted our Admin, they'd be more than happy to put you in touch with someone in the Dept. who could better answer your questions.

(FYI- 42 stations in 6 battalions, over 800 suppression personnel)

We have been using Telestaff for several years. Personnel like it and, from my experience, the support is great. Seems to be easy to customize to your own needs and wants. Data transfer to our RMS and the City's accounting software is great. If you are interested, I can put you in touch with our project leader.

We have had it for about a year now. What a difference it has made, we all like it. We only have about 60 line personnel. My LT went to Calif. for the tech aspesct of it and was there with someone from Houston Fire Dept. (TX). Maybe someone from there will chime in.

well we know that bush is pretty much lying thanks to this memo from the US ambassador to Iraq that sounds like a desperation cry
Leaked memo shows Iraq is ruled by militias
By Patrick Cockburn
A leaked cable from the US embassy in Baghdad paints a grim picture of Iraq as a country disintegrating; in which the real rulers are the militias; and the central government counts for nothing.
The cable, signed by US ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad and sent to the State Department in Washington on June 6, is wholly at odds with the optimistic account of developments given by President George Bush and Tony Blair in their recent visits to Iraq.
Iraqis employed by the US embassy live in fear that other Iraqis will find out who they are working for.
"We have begun shredding documents printed out that show local staff surnames," the cable says.
'Such information is a death sentence if overheard by the wrong people'
"In March, a few staff approached us to ask what provisions would we make for them if we evacuate."
The US and Britain have said they would withdraw their troops as the security situation improved, although the embassy memo suggests that it was, in fact, deteriorating.
Britain said yesterday that it was to pull out 170 soldiers from Muthana province in southern Iraq when the Iraqi government takes over security there next month.
There are chilling details about why, even in the heavily fortified Green Zone, Iraqis employed by the US embassy are frightened.
"In April, employees began reporting change in demeanour of guards at the Green Zone checkpoints," the memo says. "They seemed to be more militia-like. In some cases, seemingly taunting."
The cable portrays a society in a state of collapse
The vulnerability of the US position in Baghdad is so great that the Iraqi military units guarding the perimeter of the Green Zone, the heart of US power in Iraq, are now considered untrustworthy.
An Iraqi employee asked if she could have credentials, saying she was a journalist. This was because the Iraqi soldiers would hold up "her embassy badge and proclaim loudly to nearby passers-by 'Embassy' as she entered. Such information is a death sentence if overheard by the wrong people."
The memo, leaked to The Washington Post, gives a detailed account of the limited authority of the US and the Iraqi government in Baghdad.
Entitled "Snapshots from the Office: Public Affairs Staff Show Strains of Social Discord", it is one of the most revealing documents ever made public, in this case involuntarily, by US authorities in Iraq.
Based on the experiences of the nine-member Iraq staff of the public affairs press office in the US embassy, the cable portrays a society in a state of collapse.
Its contents could torpedo the claims by aides to Bush and Blair that the media is exaggerating the state of insecurity and fear in which Iraqis live.
The cable admits that the unpopularity of the American presence in Iraq is the reason why Iraqis working for the US dare not reveal the identity of their employer even to relatives.
Meanwhile a suicide bomber wearing an explosives belt struck a home for the elderly in the predominantly Shi'a city of Basra on Tuesday, police said, one of a series of attacks that killed at least 16 people and wounded dozens.
Haider Ahmed Hamid, an 18-year-old Sunni from Basra, blew himself up inside the building as a group of elderly Iraqis were lined up at a window to collect their monthly pension, police Captain Mushtaq Kadhim said. Two elderly women were killed and three people - two men and a woman - were wounded, he said.
A parked minivan packed with explosives also exploded at a busy outdoor market in the Shi'a slum of Sadr City in Baghdad, killing seven people and wounding 22.
There was no new word on the fate of two missing US soldiers as more than 8 000 Iraqi and American troops combed the volatile Sunni Triangle area south of Baghdad.
An al-Qaeda-linked group said on Monday that it had captured the two US privates after an attack on Friday and taunted the US military for failing to find them.
The Mujahedeen Shura Council, an umbrella organisation for a variety of insurgent factions led by al-Qaeda in Iraq, offered no video, identification cards or other evidence to prove that they have the Americans. The group had vowed to seek revenge for the June 7 killing of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the leader of al-Qaeda in Iraq, in a US airstrike.
Police said the motive for the attack on the old-age home was unclear, but sectarian tensions have been worsening in Basra, Iraq's second-largest city, where Britain has about 8 000 soldiers.
Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki declared a state of emergency there late last month, but it has failed to quell the rampant violence as rival Shi'ite militias battle Sunnis and each other for power. - Independent Foreign Service, Sapa-AP

Updated 7:44am Wednesday 8th January 2014 in Sport
Saturday, December 8, 1977
Having narrowly overcome another non-league side, Hillingdon Borough, in the previous round the Hornets came up against Northwich Victoria in the third round of the FA Cup.
Goals from Keith Mercer and Dennis Bond twice gave the Hornets the lead as the visitors dominated the first half but Jeff Swede cancelled out each and Frank Corrigan secured a 3-2 cup upset at the Drill Field.
The Northern Premier League side remains the last non-league team to beat the Hornets in a competitive match.

|Lady Green facing mirror image
|Thursday, March 14, 2013 12:33 PM
The unbeaten (27-0) and AP poll-winning Lady Green battle the Lady Redskins (25-3; No. 7) in what Kleman views as almost a mirror-image of his own unit.
"Their pressure package forces you to be prepared for a lot: what form it takes, where they pick you up, how hard it is; whatever they feel is necessary at a given time to be successful. That is our game plan, too. You have to be ready for whatever they throw at you because they, like us, try to create offense off their defense."
The Big Green did play the Redskins three seasons ago in the Regional semis — also unbeaten at 23-0 — but lost in that one 42-26.
Abby Siefker (6-2) was the starting center on that crew of Lady Green as a freshman. She is joined in this year's starting five by seniors Rachel Beining (6-1), Nicole Vorst (5-6) and Rachel Turnwald (5-6) and junior Taylor Mangas (5-10). The main bench includes juniors Monica Sarka (5-7) and Kendra Eickholt (5-8) and sophomores Annie Lindeman (6-0) and Haley Landwehr (5-4).
"I don't think any of their girls played on that team as freshmen but they have matured through the years. Their best player this year Darrion Rose," Kleman added. "At this stage, you really have to prevent easy baskets, so you can't have the turnovers that lead to those easy baskets. You have to play good defense and rebound — don't give up second shots — and hope you can get enough offense off your defense. "Emotions are high at this stage. You have to use that energy and yet not let it get away. You can't get outside of yourself and try to do too much. Basically you have to harness and control that energy and focus it in the right way."
Tip off Friday is at 3 p.m. in Value City Arena inside the Jerome Schottenstein Center.

Men's Tennis Enjoys Year of Firsts in 2011-12
FORT MYERS, Fla. – A year removed from a 1-9 Atlantic Sun conference record, the FGCU men's tennis team finished the 2011-12 season with its first-ever appearance in the A-Sun championships and restored a winning tradition for the program.
"This was a special year for all those involved in the program." said first-year head coach C.J. Weber. "With it being the first year we were eligible for postseason play, it was great to be able to represent ourselves in the A-Sun Championships."
The Eagles' seven wins was their best season since winning 10 matches in 2008, their first year in Division I. The Green and Blue's biggest win was a comeback 4-3 victory on the road against A-Sun foe Belmont to clinch their first-ever tournament berth. FGCU was down 1-0 after losing the doubles point and responded by winning four of the six singles matches to stun the Bruins. Fittingly, senior Matthew Rock (Fort Lauderdale, Fla./Fort Lauderdale HS/Jacksonville) clinched the comeback with a straight sets win at No. 4 singles.
"It was great seeing the transformation of the team from our first tournament of the year at USF in September to the A-Sun tournament in April," said Weber. "The players went through a complete makeover of how they see themselves as tennis players and competitors. They learned so much about themselves and I'm looking forward to what is ahead for this program in future years."
After picking up two wins against Georgia Southern (5-2) and Bethune-Cookman (5-2), sophomore Dean Tsamas (Lexington, Ky./Henry Clay HS) claimed his first career A-Sun Player of the Week award, the team's first A-Sun Player of the Week award since 2008 when Andrew Kam was honored.
On Thursday, March 1, FGCU started a new trend by hosting their first-ever night match at the FGCU Tennis Complex against A-Sun rival Kennesaw State. The Eagles didn't disappoint a record crowd of 207, earning a 5-2 victory over the Owls.
A week later, the Eagles accomplished another feat by defeating Southern Illinois-Edwardsville, 7-0, earning their first shutout since 2008. On March 31, FGCU picked up its sixth home win with a 6-1 victory against Jacksonville to clinch a winning record at the FGCU Tennis Complex.
Freshmen Tianyu Bao (Tianjin, China/Bayshore HS) and Michael Beiler (Palm Harbor, Fla./Dunedin HS) had sensational first seasons with the Eagles and were award postseason awards for their efforts. Bao went 2-0 against ranked opponents after defeating then-No. 83 Ivan Turudic (Penn) and then-No. 113 Maksim Levanovich (Stetson), who won the A-Sun Player of the Year award. Bao became the first Eagle to be honored as the A-Sun Freshman of the Year, and joined Beiler as the program's first All-Freshmen selections. Beiler also had a solid freshman season, finishing with a 7-9 dual match record and a 5-4 mark in A-Sun action at No. 6 singles.
Under Weber's guidance, the Green and Blue doubled their win total from a season ago with seven victories this year. FGCU returns five of its six starters in the singles lineup in hopes of a return trip to the A-Sun Championships next season. The Eagles' also added two freshmen for next season in Chris Perrigan (Tallahassee, Fla./Maclay College Prep. School) and Dylan Gunning (Boca Raton, Fla./Olympics Heights HS).

PEORIA, Ill. -- Average retail gasoline prices in Peoria have fallen 7.8 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $3.62 per gallon Sunday, according to GasBuddy.com.

PEORIA,Ill -- Plans to build a three story apartment building in North Peoria are put on hold after several residents voiced concerns Thursday. Developer Alexis Khazam wants to put the building behind Junction City Shopping plaza.
The 30 unit apartment building would have a new urbanism design and sit on property behind the shopping plaza and run parallel to Humboldt Avenue.
Chuck Hollis of New Junction Ventures says the units would later be converted into townhouses and condos. The project would bring 10 additional parking spaces along Humboldt where there are a handful of homeowners..and many on surrounding streets.
Several residents attending the zoning meeting say they are concerned about property values diminishing and additional traffic they say would cause problems.
"There is no precedent for a three story building besides Proctor Hospital, all the way across to the heights to the Pabst building and Cohen Furniture Warehouse," said resident Phyllis Pryde.
"You add this building and the viability it brings to the shopping center and the style of architecture that's involved now it starts to picking all the elements of the different buildings and makes sense of the character of Junction city as well as the neighborhood," Hollis said.
Zoning commission member Richard Unes says a deferral would give both sides time to work out concerns about building size, and design for the project. The commission will take up the issue again at the August 2nd meeting.

"We do the practice testing, of course, to give students the opportunity to practice on the test, but also to make sure that all the technology's in place, all the content is loaded on the machines and that we're ready to go," said Susan McDowell Riley, EVSC's Deputy Superintendent for Accountability and Academic Affairs.
Despite that week of practice, all did not go as planned when students in the EVSC and across the state attempted to start ISTEP testing Monday.
"We had issues where the machines were freezing up and we were getting error messages on the majority of the students' machines," McDowell Riley said.
So schools tried again on Tuesday.
But around mid-morning, more problems with the computers caused the EVSC, and eventually, the entire state to stop testing once again.
For McDowell Riley, the delay has proved to be a scheduling issue.
"But the other concern, of course, is the frustration that the students and the staff feel. We have shared that concern that we have with the Indiana Department of Education," McDowell Riley said.
"If they're going to institute something like this ISTEP and put such a big deal on it, then I think that they should at least put forth the effort to iron out the bugs in it," said Marvin Mofield, the grandfather of an EVSC student.
McDowell Riley said ISTEP helps schools know if students have mastered state standards, but it also reflects on the school itself, as well as staff.
"Schools now receive a letter grade A-F based on how they're doing performance wise. That is based on performance on ISTEP," McDowell Riley said. "Now in many places in Indiana, teachers are being paid based on their students' performance on ISTEP. So it's so critical that our ISTEP scores are valid and they are a true representation of what our students, the skills they have mastered because these scores are used in many different ways in terms of accountability."
In a statement released on Tuesday about the ISTEP issues, State Superintendent of Public Education Glenda Ritz said all students deserve to take a test that is valid, accurate and reliable.
The issue is with the vendor of the testing, not the schools' computers. Ritz said that vendor believes testing will be a go on Wednesday.

Record number of flights on time
12:11am Friday 11th July 2014 in National News © Press Association 2014
A record number of scheduled flights at UK airports were on time in the first part of 2014, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has announced.
And the number of charter services arriving and departing punctually also rose in the period from January to March 2014.
The CAA statistics showed that 84% of scheduled flights into and out of 10 major UK airports were on time in the first three months of this year.
This compared with a figure of 78% for the same period in 2013, with the increase taking the 2014 total to the highest level for the January-March period since records began in 1992.
The average scheduled-flight delay in January-March 2014 was nine minutes, compared with 13 minutes for the same period last year.
The 10 airports monitored were Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton, London City, Manchester, Edinburgh, Birmingham, Glasgow and Newcastle.
The overall on-time performance for charter flights at the 10 airports in the first three months of this year was 76%, compared with 69% in January to March 2013 which did include spells of wintry weather.
Of the most-popular routes flown, flights to and from Rotterdam in Holland had the highest on-time performance in the first three months of this year, at 91.7%, while the German city of Hanover had the lowest average delay - of 5.1 minutes.
Flights to and from Dubai had the lowest on-time performance, at 63.4%, while Delhi had the highest average delay, at 28.3 minutes.

Smithfield files racketeering lawsuit against union
Smithfield Foods Inc. filed a civil racketeering lawsuit against the United Food and Commercial Workers union, which for more than a decade has waged a campaign to organize workers at the company''s massive hog slaughterhouse in rural North Carolina, according to the Associated Press. The lawsuit, filed in federal court in Richmond, Va., accuses the union of engaging in a public smear campaign that included seeking frivolous regulatory investigations and providing false statement to analysts aimed at depressing the company''s stock price. The lawsuit was filed two days after the Smithfield, Va.-based company called off talks aimed at holding an organizing election at the plant, which the union has tried to organize since it opened in 1992. The talks broke down over whether Smithfield''s complaint that the union wanted to right to lobby workers, but refused to allow the company to do the same. In rejecting the demand, the union cited Smithfield''s history of harassing union supporters during organizing elections held in 1993 and 1997. A federal appeals court ruled in 2006 that Smithfield improperly influenced the elections. Earlier this year, Smithfield reached a settlement with the National Labor Relations Board and agreed to pay $1.1 million in back wages, plus interest, to employees that the company fired during union elections.

Cardiff is awash with fans from both Cardiff and Swansea Universities as Varsity 2014 kicks into gear.
Sporting action takes place all day in the area surrounding the SWALEC Stadium and Pontcanna fields before the culmination at the Millennium Stadium this evening. Kick off between at the home of Welsh rugby is at 7.30pm.
Atmosphere building in Cardiff ahead of this evening's game..... Swansea have travelled with the traditional army of travelling fans!

This evening's rugby match may well be the highlight of the Welsh Varsity but for students taking part across a wide range of sports, the games earlier in the day are arguably more important.
Football, American football and basketball are just some of the big matches taking place this afternoon and it's Swansea who have taken the bragging rights in the football with a 2-1 win.

Today's Varsity event traditionally captures the imagination of rugby players across Wales and the likes of Jamie Roberts and Lloyd Williams have sent their messages of support to Cardiff this year.
Newport Gwent Dragons back Hallam Amos, who is a current student at Cardiff and made his Wales debut last autumn, posted this picture of him sampling the action.

The Cardiff Ladies are doing their university proud this afternoon. Cardiff's rugby team are currently 36-0 up on Swansea while the ultimate frisbee side registered a 14-1 win over their rivals.
Varsity day is all about watching some competitive sporting action and maybe, just maybe, having the odd pint or two.
But if you've peaked too early, or need some sustenance to keep you going, then the SWALEC Stadium looks the place to be.
If you need something to eat or drink, the Swalec Stadium are providing student friendly prices. Entry is through Gate 3. #WelshVarsity— Welsh Varsity (@TheWelshVarsity) April 9, 2014
Even Ryan Jones is on board for this evening's game.......wonder which side he'll be supporting?!

Swansea hitting back in the American football, they are currently 27-0 up on Cardiff and a victory there looks well on the cards.
The action continues to roll on down at Pontcanna Fields but I'm not entirely sure of the relevance of this banner. Can anyone help?!

Just arrived in Cardiff with @sshingler10 to watch the varsity rugby match... Thinking it was a 2.30 kick off for some reason... #7.30 — Gareth Davies (@Gar_Davies9) April 9, 2014
So with the Varsity action continuing, let's have a little look at the action taking place at the Millennium Stadium this evening.
If you fancy coming down to the home of Welsh rugby, tickets are available right up until kick off from the WRU shop on Westgate Street. Prices are £12.50 for students and £15 for adults.
Alternatively, you can watch the match live via the S4C website with highlights seen as live later in the evening.
As the action continues we've got tennis, squash, hockey and even canoe polo taking place.
In the Ladies hockey, a dominant performance from Cardiff saw them secure a convincing 9-0 victory while the men's basketball looks an entertaining encounter.....
Well @sport_wales is buzzing today! Playing host to #WelshVarsity! #seaofredandgreen— Sport Wales (@sport_wales) April 9, 2014

RESULT - CANOE POLO - Cardiff win the final match 5-0 and win the canoe polo 2-1. #WelshVarsity— gair rhydd Sport (@GairRhyddSport) April 9, 2014
If you're thinking about going down to the Millennium Stadium to watch the Varsity match this evening and haven't been before, what can you expect?
Last year saw Swansea University clam the bragging rights on a raucous night at the Millennium Stadium. Click here to see our review of last year's action.
Men's hockey now underway down at Sophia Gardens, traditionally one of the most competitive fixtures in the whole competition.
Lacrosse players also out at Pontcanna.....

As I mentioned earlier, Varsity is about more than just the traditional mainstream sports. Here's a snap of the universities battling it out on the water in this afternoon's sailing encounter.
For the record, Cardiff were 5-3 winners.

Cardiff are winners in lacrosse and it seems they are on their way to retaining the Varsity Shield. Of course the big game at the Millennium Stadium is still to come but could Cardiff have triumphed overall before kick off?

They're available right up until kick off...

Cardiff University students Carys Williams, 20, Fiona Wood, 20, Jack Roberts, 20 and Victoria Booth, 21, get into the Varsity spirit earlier today after watching hockey at Sophia Gardens.
Carys, who is originially from Swansea, said: "It's always really fun, the best day of the year, but it's the only day of the year I can support Cardiff instead of Swansea."
Sounds like a conflict of interest to me....
Call me an old man, but I still don't get this 'selfie' fascination.
Anyway, it seems to be all the rage at the moment and is also in action at Varsity so let's go with it.
Here is Lucy Knibbs and her friends on their way into town for this evening's game.

Now the Varsity match won't be the most high profile game to take place at the Millennium Stadium this year, but it's clearly important enough for certain politicians to get involved.
Here's Labour MP Kevin Brennan wishing Cardiff all the best.
Good luck to #teamcardiff in the Welsh #varsity match— Kevin Brennan (@KevinBrennanMP) April 9, 2014
The sporting score lines seem to be going against them, but that hasn't stopped Swansea fans invading Cardiff and having a good time to boot.
Antoinette Dumayne, seen here on the right of the picture, studies law at Swansea. She said: "There was a good atmosphere, and there's lots of Swansea students making themselves heard. We're looking forward to the main rugby match tonight."
Swansea claim victory in the hockey...

Just over two hours until the 2014 Varsity Rugby match kicks off at the Millennium Stadium but the action continues elsewhere.
We've got tennis and volleyball going on right now, but it's about time we focused on this evening's main event.....
Looks like Cardiff are just a few wins away from reclaiming the Varsity shield. Consistent, strong performances have seen them pull clear throughout the day - a boost for the rugby side going into tonight's main event.
It's been sunny all day here in Cardiff and things couldn't have planned out better really.

Swansea include Wales u20 internationals Nicky Thomas and Rory Thornton in the pack with Ashley Evans on the bench. You'd think they would have too much on paper.
The teams are out on the pitch.
We are underway.
Cardiff are in red with black sleeves while Swansea are in white with green stripes.
Swansea kicked us off.
3-0 to Cardiff
Penalty from Jack Neville
Swansea win a scrum penalty but miss the kick at goal.

Despite failing to show much with 14 men, wing Tom O'Flaherty scores a try in the corner after a superb finish.
The conversion is missed but, as Rees returns to the field, Cardiff have the lead.
Cardiff 8-7 Swansea
Picture alert!
Despite Swansea dominating most of the half they go in 8-7 behind.
Neville also posted a drop goal wide just before the whistle.
Now the cheerleaders are doing their bit. We will bring you pictures when we get them.

Alex has news from the Millennium Stadium.
Swansea still lead this match 12-8 but Cardiff have regained the Varsity Shield whatever happens in tonight's showpiece thanks to an excellent performance in the other sports today.
Hang around because we have a great picture gallery to bring you.
Take a look at our report of today's events as thousands of students descended on Cardiff city centre for a day of sun-soaked fun.
Try Swansea
In what could be the key moment in the game, Matthew Jenkins scores Swansea's third try, skipping through a gaping hole in the Cardiff defence to score with ease.
Thomas converts
Cardiff 8-18 Swansea
Try Cardiff
O'Flaherty scores his second try to haul his team back into this pulsating game.

Cardiff 15-19 Swansea
Tonight's attendance: 13,835
Five minutes to go and Swansea are trying to see the game out. They should have had it totally sewn up by now though.

Wineries. Modernisme + Cooperative movement at CaixaForum, Barcelona - from 6 July to 14 October 2012
This exhibition aims to offer certain keys to understanding the artistic value and architectural singularity of these cellars, also known as Art Nouveau cellars or Cathedrals of wine. It shows various ways of looking at these buildings and approaching them, taking as its central thread the architects (especially Cèsar Martinell, who designed over half of them) and the people who lived them and who still live them: the farmers who mortgaged themselves to push forward a collective project and today's Cooperative members who maintain the commitment and pride that made these architectural giants possible.

Argentina didn't get to be the second-largest country in South America overnight. Archaeological remains found here date to some 9,000 years BC, left by the ancient Mesoamerican civilization. Early inhabitants were nomads and hunters who followed prehistoric horses and llamas. By the year 1480 AD the Incan empire had stretched to reach northern Argentina and the stage was set for contact.
The Europeans came in 1516 with Spanish explorer Juan Diaz do Solis, who claimed the area for Spain and tried to export a river of silver back to Europe. Wealth grew along with the cattle industry and after Napoleon conquered Spain, Argentina declared its independence and set up their own government. That was 1810 AD.
Argentina stayed neutral in WWI and for most of WWII, declaring war on the Axis powers only in 1945. Following the war, the country entered into a long chain of military dictatorships with only brief forays into constitutional government. The current president is Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, who's been in office since December 2007.
Argentina is known for many things but the top of the list belongs to only two -- steak and the tango. Cattle graze on the abundant grasslands and produce some of the best beef in the world. The climate is well-suited for vineyards as well, and Argentina's wines make a fine companion to their steak.
As for the tango, it has recently exploded to become a world famous dance with hotspots in every major city on the planet. It started in Buenos Aires in the middle of the nineteenth century, as the city was filling up with a mixture of European immigrants and porteños, people who were born in the port city. They melded their cultures of rhythm and harmony and came up with the tango, which has been described as the ultimate evolution of partnered dancing. And it's a great way to burn off your steak stupor. Food coma begone!
