So (freshly-inked) Aaron Ramsey's pose is 'slightly different' than the position Gareth Bale assumed during his supportive gesture towards Team GB last week, but at least you still get a good view of the Olympic rings and games logo.

In a video series for St John Ambulance, Jack Wilshere is teaching his fellow footballers proper resuscitation techniques for those inopportune times when a flash sale site crashes just before we hit 'check out'.

As Jaydubs carefully demonstrates above, when a Kickette's breath (and will to re-add items to her cart) is taken away, pretty players are obligated to help the innocent person in need.

It's time! The fans are filling up the PPL Park lots with burgers, brews and big expectations. Excitement is building in the River End, and people from all over Philadelphia and beyond are gathering in Chester to as the Philadelphia Union prepare for the first playoff game in their short history.

This piece features 2,160 photographs threaded together into a video shot during a WNT practice in Wolfsburg, Germany. It uses a combination of time-lapse and quick frames-per-second bursts.
