Dubai Boot Camp for unemployed


With sweat pouring down her face, Kate Shannon is first to cross the line. There are cheers and hugs from her teammates, before she collapses onto the sand to catch her breath. It is only 9am but already 38 degrees Celsius. This is a warm-up with a difference. This is the Bad Times Boot Camp. Kate is one of about 30 unemployed expats who sweat it out on Dubai's Jumeirah Beach three times a week.

In the shadow of the iconic Burj Al Arab hotel, they jog and sprint, do press-ups and sit-ups and occasionally an odd star jump or two. And in their colorful t-shirts, they are a diverse group. Young and old, men and women and a whole host of nationalities. But there is one thing they do have in common. They have all lost their jobs in Dubai in the last few months.

Michael's delay 'not due to health'


Michael Jackson's concert promoter has denied reports that the star delayed the first four nights of his UK tour because he has skin cancer. AEG Live president Randy Phillips said the rescheduling had absolutely nothing to do with the star's health. He also added that, I would trade my body for his tomorrow. He's in fantastic shape.

In an email to fans, Ticketmaster and AEG Live said the dates were moved so all fans could get the same quality in staging and level of entertainment. The first show of Jackson's 50-date residency at London's O2 Arena on 8 July has been pushed back by five nights.
