Roles of an eight - BBC version | |

Their description of three is very polite - I guess they couldn't call it the ejector seat...
But otherwise a good guide for beginners to the sport. (2 comments...) | |

Anyone who loved Magical Trevor the first time around (allegedly everyone loves Magical Trevor) might be interested to know he's back with a new trick.
Enjoy. (Needs sound) | |

A rowing website popularity poll. Apparently by following the link you vote for ours - might be fun for a week or two. Their rules say maximum votes allowed are one per day each. (41 comments...) | |

Home Run | |
|
For some strange reason, endlessly entertaining. Never get further than about 60 m though. (If your German is as crap as mine, all you need to know is that you control it with the mouse!)
And for the boys, here's another. (5 comments...) | |

A work of art it's OK to be puzzled by | |
|
Turner Prize winning sculptor Keith Tyson has come up with a work of art/puzzle consisting of 13 cubes, each of which has a message encoded on the faces; The Times is publishing all the relevant images so you don't have to visit Regent's Park to see it. If you can successfully decode the message before anyone else, you can win the sculpture itself. Personally, I've got nowhere with any of it, but I'd be interested to see what people can come up with.
The rest of the cubes are being linked from here. (9 comments...) | |

Black Prince website? | |
|
Alex and I have been adding 'our clubs' to the website www.coxie.com (it's a coxes thing) and I wanted to add BP as one of my 12 clubs (or something like that, am beginning to lose count now)
I definitely remember there being a BPBC website of some sort, although it was lame into the extreme and consisted of a black screen with the cat and buns on it... anyone any ideas where it's gone? and are there plans to revive it... c'mon the Boars Head *spit* can manage it...

Step 1: Watch this video, counting the passes made by the white team. Watch it once only.
Step 2: Check your results.
Step 3: Be surprised. | |

What Am I Like? | |

A similar thing was previously discussed here, but as it was on TV last night, I thought it might be fun to revisit.
Answer a few questions and find out which of 16 personality types you fit into, based on whether you are Introvert/Extrovert, Ideas/Facts, Heart/Head, Planner/Spontaneous. Is there a typical rower type?
For the record, I am an Idealist (Introvert, Ideas, Heart, Spontaneous). (35 comments...) | |

Well, I suppose they had to big up their ego somehow...especially with next Summer's Ashes coming along :)
Why is it we don't see anything reciprocal in the British press? Could it be we just don't give a shit about them?! (1 comment...) | |

Athens 2004 Rowing Media Guide | |
|
A must for rowing Stattos everywhere. The media guide for the Olympic Rowing Regatta contains all the info you could wish for on past medal winners and future prospects, the schedule, the venue and the finer points of the rules. It also includes a guide on how to row and a glossary of rowing terms. Nice to see that even for an Olympic Regatta they feel the need for a definition for "crab"... (14 comments...) | |
