russia busy traffic and expensive lifestyle how accommodating is the russian capital for new parents surprisingly for many it seems very. welcome to the child development center or wow town as it's called in english formerly known as the world of childhood i'm here to meet marina and have baby sonia like me it's the first time here green has been married to her japanese american husband for several years now and the family are always looking for new places to take their new young daughter. it's a fun and exciting complex of entertainment education and shopping for the whole family and the perfect example of such a place in the russian capital dedicated to babies toddlers and children up to ten years old this hospitable venue is a cozy and ideal place for timely recreation painting craft tables puppet shows you may miss. the venue also boasts cafes on the first and second floors to have their

own play rooms with toy furniture and kitchen utensils this looks fun. at a healthy menu with fresh juices and homemade pizzas and you have a dream solution to what can be the mighty. process of dining out with small children it seems like people need it with love because you can see so many details in design it's colorful and friendly people children. the complex is the ideal location to shop for all sorts of toys educational games and products for creativity although there is one slight issue at times hear noise while sound will while you in many ways but it's not really a place to relax. reading to our next venue and we've arrived at the department store located and knew all about in the sense of the capital i'm here with polish expert at least the clothes

i had also olivia was nine months old with three venues in moscow bhaskar bambini is a bright and exclusive looking store professional salespeople are on hand who can help customers choose what they need and advise every child development education safety issues what items are best for children of different ages. looking around with alicia and livia i'm not sure he's having more fun. that you the edgy which is italian for cherry orchard is the official clothing provider of the russian olympic team the children and baby store here is just a tiny part of a huge company back to shopping for little olivia has plenty to choose from and one policy can find a supervised children's corner where your little ones will never be bored in other areas of the store you can find a whole range of furniture that's been specially designed for little ones.

well problems cots clothing accessories and shoes you name it you'll find it here in fact this store has an impressive collection of items for babies toddlers and showed up to fourteen years old. but interestingly enough many of the items on sale here are imported from europe it seems that for many people western imports and new style are very very important with the competition for their baby to look the best . with prices around thirty percent higher than in the west how much would you pay for an item of clothing for a baby. that's our guests impression of the store. and i like the store a lot because it's very convenient mothers and their children there is an area where your child can play while you shop and also it's nice that babies can play with any toys here in this tour if we're taking them home in a. trial next guest now

managed to miss this incident much to tom's despair while in the second half tom pressed again but couldn't find the goal and their fate was effectively sealed when midfielder danny's brent's year was sent off for a second book people offense ten minutes from time tom seven year spell in russia's top flight is over all korea and i two points above the relegation playoffs this is how the bottom of the russian premier league looks the so-called relegation groups are relegated along with starter now take the third and fourth foreign teams well into the relegation playoffs at the end of the season they are currently rostov karelia just two points above them with the games left to. be more russia strike a puppet could have any access he would like to stay at english premier league side for them when the current season comes to an end he joined the cottages on loan from stuttgart during the winter transfer window and has scored six goals in ten league experiences however his contract with the bonus legal side expires at the

end of the season when he will become a free agent and the twenty eight year old says he's keen to stay at craven cottage . in spain real madrid have been celebrating their league a triumph the squad enjoying an open top bus parade from the stadium and through the spanish capital around twenty five thousand fans lined the streets their three no win over athletic bilbao on wednesday clinching the thursday league of crime since two thousand and eight and while that was going on across the royals thirty k. madrid were holding an open training session ahead of their europa league showdown with athletic bilbao next wednesday madrid won the competition just two years ago when they beat for them in the final and they will be relying heavily on strike a foul cavs scored twenty three times in league and a remarkable fourteen times in the europa league this season and trick in the final would equal his own record of seventeen goals in one europa league campaign set last year when he won the trophy with poor child. well despite the frantic end to

the spanish season's to the spanish season reale sporting director and former plays in the things that dan managed to find some time to come to moscow he has been promoting a project close to his heart to develop football schools around the world and he gave local children a day i would never forget and one cost ref as mil was he is the man who needs no introduction to any avid football fan voted the champions league best player of the last twenty years and twenty eleven zedong continues to give back to football first and foremost to reality madrid and seconds but probably equally as important to football's next generation's prove to that are the football academies opening in his native france. i. still have my can confirm that this project is indeed underway in x. and probably we would also like to start it off in my say but we have not succeeded

in it as yet for a number of reasons it's a family project for me to a large extent and a very important one the project is a success the children can come to the schools and learn to play football and we hope that it will one day become a national project and who knows maybe one day we'll open a school in russia there's definitely plenty of talent in russia which would appreciate whatever the famous frenchman has to offer zedong branded product launch out of the way he then went on to play to sam it happens with local kids who probably wanted to show off more than they wanted to learn. i can't describe my feelings i played with sudan he's great captious i support real madrid and then used to play for them there were so many photographers here today i hope i got from one of those pictures. please it is he done it will complete he's wish list for the game of football including opening an academy here in russia.

despite a relatively short stay in the russian capital's indians it down left a huge morgue in the hearts of bell's children and for legend one said that when he was a good few drafts of becoming a football player the world was going through a hole but he shared the key to success with those russian children as well ron kaufman forty moscow. my ice hockey world championships have got underway in sweden and finland with the usa finding themselves in a real tussle with france the french had taken a shot playing yet in character nicholas passion for history there before carlo pozo got an equaliser but the americans can tell you are not forty one in health and here also underway germany versus italy in stock i must go in the thirst for a russian meanwhile preparing for there right now with that on saturday and have been by reinforcements from the n.h.l. constantine's the top off as the test. is in utah i believe dealer has no meaning

church of the russian mission or as hockey team for almost a year and the world championship will be the biggest test for the coach so for despite the fact that russia's main aim is building a team for their home olympics and twenty fourteen winning the world title would act as a huge confidence boost ahead of those searching games if the team plays like i want them to play hell be satisfied we should see the tech six we're supposed to be applying however the result is very important as well if we have a soul a team ready to battle we will achieve a good result the red machine has already received reinforcements from the n.h.l. the call. of seems to be the first choice between the pipes well the n.h.l.'s best forward you game that is worth being wins will surely add more goals to the team staley and the detroit red wings center by build up soup will join the side in. but

neither can moderate soup has yet to leave to the world championship trophy we're good friends with it's good that detroit were knocked out of the stanley cup and he can join the team he's one of the best players in the world it's a pleasure to play alongside him and hopefully we'll get a positive result this time billy dean of still hasn't named his final roster and has a reserve of three places four players from north america whose teams will be eliminated in the second round of the playoffs however nothing can stop russia's youngest forward t.v. from going to his first ever world championship. in one thousand year old is often compared with mark him and the pair were playing in the same line at the training camp. but malkin is a great player and of course i'd love to play with him and that would be an honor for me to be in the same line as him but it's up to the coaches to decide the red machine faces who are to be in their opener on saturday day two of the world championship and as usual russia are among the favorites with

a new behind the bench and a solid rooster on the ice and steady but out of archie. now let's catch up with the first round of the n.b.a. playoffs by the miami heat have a three nil series lead against new york knicks bron james form thirty two and the latest clash which saw the haven i eighty seven seventy went to miami needing just one more win to claim the series inside like the home of that in their series with dallas after beating the mavericks ninety five seventy nine and the mavericks admit they were standing. tonight just picked a bad time to really put a stinker out there i mean nobody really had a good game for us. you know talk to us on the other and everybody made shots and just we picked a tough time to really got target nothing going on the off and. well those teams then next play each other on saturday meanwhile the new york knicks are almost certain to be that star point guard jeremy lin for sunday's clash with miami he had

surgery on the beginning of april and even though he's returned to practice he's still in a bit of pain and not one hundred percent. you know. trying to make sure you know. that risk and another possible use russian star undertaker linkage could be making in the back to the n.b.a. to join up with the league's russian owner it's believed to be a scar forward as the first of the green couple calls to play net and will sign a three year deal at the end of the season. that they say you can't beat local knowledge and that is certainly the case at the moment to go for wells fargo championship in north carolina webb simpson lives a stone's throw from the qual hollow course and knows the lie of the land very well this pup breaking right at the last minute for a birdie he carded a sixty five to share the first round lead with fellow americans roy moore and
