Imagine a beach with no bugs or sun burns.  The world’s one and only indoor beach can be found in Japan’s Ocean Dome about 1,200 miles south of Tokyo in Miyazaki, on Japan’s southernmost Kyushu Island.Here, the water is always blue and salt-free, waves are perfectly timed, sharks are elsewhere, and its never too hot, or cold, to take a dip.An indoor beach . . . a vision of the future?

In the middle of campaign season, is it possible that Tony Blair is set to follow in Madonna’s footsteps as the face of the luxury label?

Tony BlairIn fact he is set to undertake a role more suited to his skills and experience - as an advisor at the luxury conglomerate owned by his friend Bernard Arnault; LVMH.

The former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair may be making his foray into fashion with a consultant job at Louis Vuitton. “There is an agreement in principle but nothing has been signed yet,” a source close to Blair told the Daily Telegraph. “Mr Blair won’t be joining the board but he will be acting in an advisory role, working very closely with Mr Arnault. In particular, his job is likely to involve attracting new clients.”

Sir Philip Green suggested a role within his Fashion Retail Academy with Blair whilst he was Prime Minister in 2006 and Blair joked at the time, “You would have to start me right at the bottom. I am not known for my fashion sense. When I wore a particular brand of swimming trunks one year, the sales then collapsed.”

Blair has previously consulted for JP Morgan Chase and Zurich Financial. And he’s not the first British leader to make waves in the fashion community. Get to know London Mayor Boris Johnson, an unlikely friend of fashion, and, at the other end of the style spectrum, current Prime Minister Gordon Brown, GQ’s worst-dressed man.

Blair is expected to start at LVMH later this year.

Boxing is being reintroduced in several schools to help pupils develop their mental and physical skills.

Some schools in Bromley, south London are incorporating the sport into PE lessons, under the supervision of the Amateur Boxing Association of England.

Boxing has not been taught in schools since 1962, when a campaign to ban it from PE classes won popular support.   Peter McCabe, chief executive of brain injury association Headway, urged the schools involved to reconsider.

Fitness

Head teacher of Orpington’s Priory School, Nicholas Ware, told the BBC his school had reintroduced boxing because it had wanted to offer “as wide a range of sporting opportunities for young people as possible” as part of the school’s new sports status. He added: “In a sense, we are not really boxing yet. “We have had a year where students are engaged in fitness for boxing which has involved no contact whatsoever - it’s really based around fitness using the pads and using the gloves. “With all the right safety equipment and close supervision from the Amateur Boxing Association, those who have been through this year’s initial training are now engaged in sparring,” Mr Ware said. He added that only pupils who had opted to take part were involved and that it was certainly not compulsory.  This is purely for developing fitness levels in youngsters and getting them engaged in sport and trying to identify who may be another Amir Khan.”

In the early 1960s Edith Summerskill MP tried to get boxing removed from schools sports curriculum but lost several votes in Parliament. However, her campaign won popular support and after many parents wrote to schools asking their children to be excused from classes involving boxing, the sport was gradually removed from schools.
