Robinho walk-out stuns Man City

2009-01-20T05:15:00.000-08:00

Robinho could be punished by Manchester City after leaving the club's training camp in Tenerife without permission.

City have given no official reason for the Brazilian's departure and are refusing to comment on speculation that he has returned to South America.

But executive chairman Garry Cook told the BBC: "I do know Robinho is not at the training centre in Tenerife.

"If he has left the training ground it is a breach of club discipline. I am waiting for a full debrief."

City smashed the British transfer record when they paid Real Madrid £32.5m for the 24-year-old in August last year.

The Brazilian striker has scored 12 goals for his new club and become a favourite of City's fans.

Chelsea had been favourites to land the Brazilian before City stepped in to hijack the deal on transfer deadline day last summer.

The former Real Madrid man made a gaffe days after his transfer to City went through, saying, "Chelsea made a great proposal and I accepted", before correcting himself.

Robinho's controversial departure from the Tenerife camp comes a day after his friend and countryman Kaka rejected a move to Eastlands for a world-record fee.

Kawasaki pulls team out of MotoGP

2009-01-10T22:26:00.000-08:00

Japanese manufacturer Kawasaki has pulled out of MotoGP to cut costs amid the global financial crisis.

"We took the final decision not to continue in MotoGP," said Kawasaki's Katsuhiro Sato. "It's something we have been considering since mid-December.

"In the current economic climate and unless the situation improves it is difficult to say if we will return."

Kawasaki had competed in motorcycling's premier class since the 2003 season, with annual costs of around £28.8m.

The worldwide economic downturn has also affected other Japanese marques involved in motorsport.

Honda announced in December it is quitting Formula One, while Subaru and Suzuki are out of the World Rally Championship.

Kawasaki has also felt the bite with sales of its bikes in the United States and Europe badly hit by the economic slump.

Dutch-based Kawasaki Motors Racing failed to win in MotoGP, their best result French rider Randy de Puniet's second place in Japan in 2007.

The team had a miserable 2008 campaign , with John Hopkins injured for much of it and finishing 16th overall.

Kawasaki's decision leaves the American and new team-mate Marco Melandri of Italy looking for rides ahead of the 2009 season.

Melandri, who has won five MotoGPs, finished runner-up to compatriot Valentino Rossi in 2005.

Kawasaki's exit, assuming its two bikes are not taken on by an independent team, leaves the MotoGP grid with 17 riders. Points are awarded down to 15th place.

Milan magic can revitalise Beckham

2008-12-30T19:43:00.000-08:00

David Beckham hopes AC Milan will resurrect his England career - but his short stint at the San Siro could provide him with longer-lasting benefits.
After leaving the 33-year-old LA Galaxy midfielder out of his squad to face Germany on Wednesday, England coach Fabio Capello has underlined that Beckham must prove his form and fitness during his forthcoming loan spell in Italy if he wants to add to his 107 caps.
The pressure is on the former England captain, but one of Milan's biggest stars, Dutch midfielder Clarence Seedorf, says he and his team-mates will do all they can for him - whether or not Beckham ever plays a competitive match for the club.
And, according to Seedorf, the Rossoneri's sports science programme - the fabled 'Milan Lab' - can help to extend Beckham's playing days at the highest level, as it has done for so many Milan players.
We still don't know if he is going to play or not but we will make him feel part of the team

Beckham, who has been out of action since Galaxy's season finished on 26 October, arrives at the San Siro on 7 January and will spend less than three months with Carlo Ancelotti's side before returning to the United States for the start of the new MLS campaign.
If he impresses in Italy, he could earn a recall for February's friendly with Spain as he tries to win his 108th cap and equal Bobby Moore's England record tally for an outfield player.
But, should he fail to shine, it will only have a negative impact upon his future prospects of playing for the national team.
With his time in Milan limited, it is clear Beckham needs to hit the ground running at the San Siro. Seedorf, however, is confident that he will not take long to settle on or off the pitch.
"David, like myself, is a world citizen and he has the right mentality - an open mind - to adapt quickly to new situations," Seedorf told BBC Sport.

Milan magic can revitalise Beckham

Beckham hopes his stint in Serie A will help him to add to his 107 England caps

By Chris Bevan

David Beckham hopes AC Milan will resurrect his England career - but his short stint at the San Siro could provide him with longer-lasting benefits.

After leaving the 33-year-old LA Galaxy midfielder out of his squad to face Germany on Wednesday, England coach Fabio Capello has underlined that Beckham must prove his form and fitness during his forthcoming loan spell in Italy if he wants to add to his 107 caps.

The pressure is on the former England captain, but one of Milan's biggest stars, Dutch midfielder Clarence Seedorf, says he and his team-mates will do all they can for him - whether or not Beckham ever plays a competitive match for the club.

And, according to Seedorf, the Rossoneri's sports science programme - the fabled 'Milan Lab' - can help to extend Beckham's playing days at the highest level, as it has done for so many Milan players.

Beckham, who has been out of action since Galaxy's season finished on 26 October, arrives at the San Siro on 7 January and will spend less than three months with Carlo Ancelotti's side before returning to the United States for the start of the new MLS campaign.

If he impresses in Italy, he could earn a recall for February's friendly with Spain as he tries to win his 108th cap and equal Bobby Moore's England record tally for an outfield player.

But, should he fail to shine, it will only have a negative impact upon his future prospects of playing for the national team.

With his time in Milan limited, it is clear Beckham needs to hit the ground running at the San Siro. Seedorf, however, is confident that he will not take long to settle on or off the pitch.

"David, like myself, is a world citizen and he has the right mentality - an open mind - to adapt quickly to new situations," Seedorf told BBC Sport.

Clarence Seedorf
Seedorf joined AC Milan from city rivals Inter in 2002
"When he went to Madrid he performed well and in the US he has done his thing too.
"I don't think he will have big problems adapting to the style of play and his own way of playing will help him - that determination he has in his game as well as the technical ability he also has."
What will also help Beckham is that Milan are flying in Serie A and confidence is high in a team packed with world-class talent. As well as Seedorf, he will join a squad boasting the likes of Ronaldinho, Kaka, Paolo Maldini, Andrea Pirlo and Andriy Shevchenko.
"He will be surrounded by good players so we can help him out - he will not feel that all the pressure is on him," added Seedorf.
"We are definitely going to help him to feel good within the club's system in training. We still don't know if he is going to play or not but we will make him feel part of the team anyway.
"We will all receive him with open arms and help him to reach his goal. I know he is a great professional and he will help us to achieve our goals too.
"Everyone in the squad is excited about the encounter we are going to have with David in January. We are all looking forward to it."
606: DEBATE
Winning caps is not Beckham's driving force - winning trophies is
Trevsleftboot

Perhaps the biggest gain for Beckham during his short spell in Italy will be his access to Milan's fitness coaches, as he looks for ways to stay in the England squad until the 2010 World Cup finals in South Africa, by which time he will be 35.
Milan have a dozen players in their 30s - along with the 40-year-old Maldini - and, although a few weeks may not be long enough for Beckham to unlock all the secrets of the 'Milan Lab', its expertise in physical care will have undoubted value.
It is not easy for Seedorf, himself 32, to explain the exact workings of Milan's scientific approach, but he is an enthusiastic advocate of it.
He believes it is the "future of football" and is sure Beckham will reap the rewards too.
"Serie A is one of the strongest leagues in the world," the four-times Champions League winner said. "Has the Milan Lab extended my career in Italy? It's not that simple, but it is one of the reasons.
David Beckham
Beckham has not played since the MLS season finished on 26 October
"How does it work? Let's start by saying there is a general philosophy of prevention of injury, then the second thing is that there is a personalised approach and finally we use technology instead of personal opinions.
"For example, when you are leaning on your knees in training then people tell you that you are tired but that is an opinion, not based on any facts.
"With regular check-ups we can prevent any actual problems and the personal attention will tell you if you need more or less of something in your food. It is a general philosophy applied to all the players."
How quickly Beckham feels any effects is largely up to him. But Seedorf feels he will be in the right place to get to the top of his game, something that, with Capello watching his progress, could prove vital.
"It depends on how intensively the player uses the system," said Seedorf. "But it is there for you and you can either use it or wait for the club to give you signals
"A lot of what they do is not new but what is new is how the club reads the data for each player and implements it in training.
"What I am saying is that you are looking at a person who is not a piece of meat and you have to treat that person the best way possible and prepare him the best way possible so he can perform at his best.
"If he doesn't play well, that is a different story - a technical story."

Women having Apple Body Shapes need some Fashion Tips

2008-12-05T07:24:00.000-08:00

Creating a good look for yourself is all about dressing for your specific body type. Of course, there are a variety of body types and corresponding looks. In this article, we address the apple body type.

We all see the ads of the heroin chic women modeling clothes. If you are willing to give up food for the rest of your life, then you can achieve those looks. Since most of us are unwilling to go to that extreme, we need to shop for clothes that fit our real world body. To do that, you need to be honest and classify your body correctly. There are good looks for any body type, so don't fret.

The apply body type is one in which you tend to hold your weight around the waistline. You've got lots of curves and should be proud of them. Your bust line may be large, but not necessarily. In general, your upper body is larger than your lower body. So, what clothing advice can we give that is going to make you look dynamic.

Your top should have a few characteristics. The first tip is to wear it long. Make sure it extends well below your waistline as it will cover that area. Higher up, go with a lower neck line or plunging cleavage look. Now accessorize with a dramatic necklace to draw the eyes up to your facial area. Consider covering the look with a light coat to create vertical lines and soften up rough spots.

With an apple body type, you can really make a look go with pants or skirts. With pants, your urge may be to wear something tight. Don't go with straight leg look that runs directly from your hips. This will create a seamless transition that creates a subtle, smoky impression where your waistline is de-emphasized. For skirts, go with a higher waistline and a full skirt. This will create a vertical appearance, which is your overall desire.

Consider the overall approach we've taken here. We've dressed to move the eyes to two locations - the lower legs and our neck/face. Why? These are the two strong points of the typical apple body shape. That doesn't mean they always will be, so do an objective evaluation of your body and identify your strong points. Now create an outfit that will draw the eyes to those areas and you will be well down the road to creating a successful look for your body type.

During the summer it is best to cover the Acne affected areas of your body with oil-free cream that also has high UV filters and do not forget to use a summer hat and sunglasses.

Myth no.2: The more you wash your face the less Acne manifests

Well, it is good to wash your face in order to remove make-up, dust and other impurities that gather on the skin during the day but you should not do it more than twice a day. Also, when washing your face dermatologists recommend that you use non-alcoholic, soap-free cleansers with gently movements for avoiding skin irritation. Also, avoid scrubbing as it will only harm the skin that already suffers from Acne.

Myth no.3: Squeezing the pimples will make Acne disappear

Even though after the squeezing procedure the pimple will temporarily look less visible the truth is germs will get into the skin from your hands or from inside the pimple and in a day or two the inflammation will be back and more pimples will appear in that skin zone. Plus, you can get scars that will disappear only in a few months or even last forever. If a zit appears in the day you have a date it’s best to cover it up with special products of make-up made for Acne skin.

Myth no.4: If you have Acne you must not use make-up products

This used to have been true 30 years ago. Nowadays the cosmetic companies have special make-up products for Acne skin that are oil-free and to not clog up the pores. Some of them even contain substances that heal pimples, so fell free to use make-up products but do not forget to wash your skin before going to bed in order to remove any tracks of make up from your skin.

Myth no.5: Men that suffer of Acne should not shave

This is partially true. If the pimple is red, painful and seems to have pus men should avoid that zone during shaving for a day or two in order to prevent the infection from spreading to other skin areas too. Otherwise, a sharp blade and a quality shaving gel can be used by a man that has Acne.
