:00:34. > :00:38.impaired downhill. Becoming the first British woman ever to win a

:00:39. > :00:41.Paralympic skiing medal. Joining me on the sofa is John

:00:42. > :01:03.Dickinson-Lilley, a member of the British Disabled Ski Team. Was it

:01:04. > :01:12.expected? Today was amazing. She had a bit of a crash at the end. That

:01:13. > :01:20.was a relief thing at the end. What is it like? You are visually

:01:21. > :01:28.impaired, isn't quite frightening? You focus on the voice in your head

:01:29. > :01:35.because your guide has a headset. Will this pit the Paralympic team

:01:36. > :01:41.and good measure for the rest of the Paralympics? It will be a great

:01:42. > :01:53.boost for all of us. Fingers crossed for a gold. Thank you, John. The

:01:54. > :01:55.Games will last for ten days, seeing more than 500 athletes from 45

:01:56. > :02:03.countries competing for 72 gold medals. And this is how it all

:02:04. > :02:16.started. At kicked off with this spec macular show, including this

:02:17. > :02:21.giant ship and some ballet. The on going crisis between Ukraine and

:02:22. > :02:25.Russia has caused some attention. A number of politicians have said they

:02:26. > :02:46.will not be attending after Russia decided to send troops into crime.

:02:47. > :02:51.-- Crimea. This visually impaired skier is representing Britain. It

:02:52. > :02:57.was the best moment of my life, it was so good. And ever before I

:02:58. > :03:04.wasn't nervous but the moment we walked on I was so nervous!

:03:05. > :03:12.Britain's target is at least two medals. With one silver in the bag,

:03:13. > :03:16.Great Britain is getting closer. If you turn on Radio 1 today you may

:03:17. > :03:20.notice that all their presenters are women. That's because the girls have

:03:21. > :03:24.taken over the airwaves for International Women's Day. Radio 1

:03:25. > :03:27.has lined up 39 hours of its most popular female DJs, like Jameela

:03:28. > :03:31.Jamil, for the takeover. The first Women's Day was in 1911 when over a

:03:32. > :03:34.million people attended a rally for women to have the right to vote and

:03:35. > :03:37.to equal pay. Next, councils in England and Wales

:03:38. > :03:39.have accused some electronic cigarette companies of targeting

:03:40. > :03:43.children in their marketing. They say there's a risk that e-cigarettes

:03:44. > :03:50.could become a gateway to children smoking normal cigarettes, but

:03:51. > :03:53.manufacturers deny the claims. In January the Government announced

:03:54. > :03:58.under-18s in England will be banned from buying electronic cigarettes.

:03:59. > :04:11.Next up - if you're playing sport this weekend you might experience a

:04:12. > :04:13.bit of this. SHOUTING. Well, parents watching youth matches today and

:04:14. > :04:16.tomorrow in Lancashire are being told not to shout on the sidelines.

:04:17. > :04:19.Lancashire Football Association's Silent Weekend aims to change

:04:20. > :04:24.attitudes and behaviour during sports involving you guys. Sometimes

:04:25. > :04:28.the loud support can put too much pressure on young kids. The idea was

:04:29. > :04:36.put to the test at an Under-9s game in Horwich - this is what a few of

:04:37. > :04:40.the children thought. I think we play better when they are not

:04:41. > :04:44.shouting because when people showed it is hard to think. It was better

:04:45. > :04:51.because we didn't have people shouting at us. How does it make you

:04:52. > :04:56.feel? When they say bad things it hurts but when they say good things

:04:57. > :04:57.you get encouraged. Well, we've been asking you whether your parents put

:04:58. > :05:22.you off when you're playing sport. Thanks for those comments, you can

:05:23. > :05:25.have your say over on the Newsround website.

:05:26. > :05:27.Sticking with sport and the FA Cup quarterfinals start today, in just

:05:28. > :05:31.under an hour Arsenal host Everton. Arsenal fans will be keeping their

:05:32. > :05:34.fingers crossed they beat the Toffees as the cup could be the

:05:35. > :05:38.Gunners' best chance of ending their nine-year wait for a trophy. There's

:05:39. > :05:41.also Premier League action at lunchtime with Manchester United

:05:42. > :05:44.travelling to West Brom in a must win match for both teams. West Brom

:05:45. > :05:48.are just one point above the relegation zone and Man United will

:05:49. > :05:58.be looking on closing the gap on the top four. That's all from me.
