Of the new claims he added: "I am accused of attacking a person 13 years ago. I do not even know who this person is. I certainly did not attack this person and I have never attacked anyone."
He added: "If I sound bitter, it is because I am."
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said on Monday night of the current allegations: "Officers are investigating an allegation of rape and indecent assault on a woman dating from November 1995.

Olympics Media Battle China Syndrome
Following numerous reports that China has imposed restrictions on foreign news media
that will impede -- if not prevent -- their coverage of the Olympic Games, officials
of the International Olympic Committee charged with coordinating TV, radio and press c
overage have begun talks with members of China's organizing committee seeking assurances
that broadcasters will have unfettered access to sites in Beijing. The Associated
Press on Monday quoted IOC member Kevan Gosper as saying that "some progress" had
been made, "but I can't say we are there yet." Chinese officials are apparently concerned
that opponents of their country's policies regarding Tibet and Darfur may attempt
to stage demonstrations in Beijing during the games in hopes of attracting the attent
ion of the world's news media. Gosper, who is chairman of the IOC press commission,
told the AP that he has made it plain to Chinese organizers that journalists must
"have the ability of filing live without any censorship." But Kevin Fleck, China
manager of Sydney-based Global Vision Networks, a satellite service provider that has contracted
to provide satellite feeds for local stations all over the world, told the wire service
that he has run into bureaucratic roadblocks. He said he worries that reporters are going
to try to get "on the morning show back home and they're not going to be able to
do it. And they are going to be angry."

Out of all the support bands Neil Young has recorded and performed with during his long and illustrious career, the best-known of the gang (and perhaps one and only of the superlative garage john Rock bands of all time) remains Crazy Horse. The band's roots lay in the dark early '60s doo ginzo band Danny & the Memories, which contained future Crazy Horse members Danny Whitten, Billy Talbot, and Ralph Molina, among others. Although all trey would by and by play instruments in Crazy Horse, the trio focused alone on vocals for this early ring, as the radical relocated back and forth from the East and West Coasts. After finally settling down in Laurel Canyon in 1966, the members picked up instruments (Whitten the guitar, Talbot sea bass, and Molina drums) and formed the Rockets.
Connexion the trio were extra members Bobby Notkoff (violin), and deuce other guitarists, Leon and George Whitsell, world Health Organization all played on the sextet's one and only record, 1968's self-titled debut. Shortly after the album's departure, Whitten and Talbot met Neil Young, world Health Organization had just left Buffalo Springfield and was about to launch a solo career. Young packed with the Rockets at a gig at the illustrious Whisky A Go-Go, and immediately asked Whitten, Talbot, and Molina to play on a few new songs he'd written -- "Down by the River," "Cowgirl in the Sand," and "Cinnamon Girl." The trio accepted, playing on the trey said songs and several others for what would get Young's sophomore effort, 1969's classical Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere, resulting in the trio breakage up the Rockets to polarity on with Young full-time, under the new distinguish Crazy Horse.
The album conventional both Young and Crazy Horse as one of the near bright new sway bands, as he enlisted the band once once again to play on his third solo exit, 1970's After the Gold Rush. But at the same fourth dimension Young linked up with Crazy Horse, he recognised an invitation to team up with Crosby, Stills & Nash. With extensive periods of fourth dimension between playing with Young, Crazy Horse inked their possess recording narrow, resulting in their 1971 self-titled debut. Although the record failed to pit the achiever of their make with Young, it turned out to be an divine movement (as Grin guitarist Nils Lofgren and illustrious producer/pianist Jack Nitzsche guested on the album) display that the group was not just Young's backing band. But just as their own recording career began, Whitten became addicted to heroin, which hampered his talents and desire to play with the ring, resulting in his going away by 1972.
Dotty Horse continued on with a revolving door of surrogate members pickings Whitten's place for a couple of lackluster albums in 1972 -- Loose and At Crooked Lake. As Crazy Horse's career appeared to strike a skid, Young's career continued to tucket as he issued the biggest hit of his career, the mellowed country-rock classical Harvest, the same year. When Young heard around Whitten's deteriorating condition (Brigham Young wrote "Needle and the Damage Done" for him), he wanted to help forbidden his old ally and asked Whitten to be voice of his touring band. But when Whitten proven to be too far gone during rehearsals, he was pink-slipped. On the same night he left Young and the band (Nov 18, 1972), Whitten overdosed and died.
Devastated, Young carried on with the spell, simply reconvened with the surviving members of Crazy Horse by the summertime of 1973, on the job on a go under of sinister songs he'd scripted just about the seedier side of life. The band toured Europe later in the year (with Lofgren stake on circuit card) and recorded these unexampled compositions, which wouldn't see the light of clarence Day until 1975, when the authoritative record album Tonight's the Night was at long last issued. The same year, the chemical group named their official successor for Whitten, freshman Frank "Poncho" Sampedro, as the freshly reinstated Neil Young & Crazy Horse issued their adjacent waiver, Zuma, following it up with 1977's American Stars 'N Bars, and playing on a few tracks for Young's largely 1978 state exploit, Comes a Time. Amid the ado of transcription, Crazy Horse managed to yield a one-fourth album on their possess, 1978's Crazy Moon, which featured Young guesting on a few of the tracks and was easily their finest and most-focused exploit since their debut release seven age earlier.
Simply the best was yet to come -- Young had thought up a surrealistic theatrical piece to company some other new coif of songs he'd pen (half were acoustic, the other half were pure hard rock'n'roll), which featured roadies coming onstage garmented like Jawas from the flick Star Wars, and the band was dwarfed by oversized loudspeaker cabinets and other props. The ensuing turn was one of Young's finest, as the shows were recorded on both tape and celluloid, resulting in 1979's hellenic Rust Never Sleeps, as well as a film of an entire show from the term of enlistment (the film was also titled Rust Never Sleeps, piece its soundtrack was issued under the constitute Live Rust).
Although Young took a three-year ruin from the concert stage later on, Crazy Horse noneffervescent appeared on his studio recordings in the early '80s -- 1980's mellowed Hawks & Doves and the 1981 rock 'n' roll musician Re-Ac-Tor. Throughout the stay of the decennary, Young tested a variety of musical styles with other musicians, but would unremarkably include at least one member of Crazy Horse in these projects. After a proposed Neil Young & Crazy Horse spell in early 1984 failed to materialise, the band got back together deuce geezerhood afterward for a tour, and issued perchance their weakest button ever (and poorest marketing), 1987's unsuitably highborn Life. With Sampedro decision making to stick behindhand and play with Young, Molina and Talbot recruited new members Matt Piucci (guitar/vocals) and Sonny Mone (guitar) and carried on under the name Crazy Horse, issuing their fifth album in 1989, the less-than-stellar Left for Dead.
Only as antecedently in Young's career, it was only a matter of time until he collected up the older military personnel, as Crazy Horse (sans Piucci and Mone) rejoined Young and Sampedro in time for the 1990 back-to-basics record Ragged Glory. The ensuing tour of duty was a unassailable one, resulting in the discharge of the unequivocal Neil Young & Crazy Horse live record album Weld, a year later (a video of the same list was released as well). The '90s saw further releases by Young and the group, including 1994's Sleeps With Angels and 1996's Broken Arrow, as well as the 1995 home video The Complex Sessions, the 1999 live album/movie Year of the Horse, and of grade, legion tours. 2001 adage another Young/Crazy Horse duty tour, during which they debuted several newly penned tracks, set to perhaps surface on a extroverted modern album. Talbot unbroken himself fussy during his time off close to this period by starting the Billy Talbot Band, as well as a sticking out reunion with the '80s interlingual rendition of Crazy Horse (Fox Talbot, Molina, Piucci, and Mone), this time under the name Raw.
Pele's latest score a TV documentary
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Brazilian football hero Pele has given his approval to a television documentary that will offer an unprecedented look at his career.
Pele's story has been recounted in written biographies, but the producers said this marks the first time he has granted anyone "such unparalleled access" to produce a TV documentary.
The project is being developed by FremantleMedia, the television behemoth behind "American Idol" and "The X Factor," which signed a deal with Pele's licensing agency, Prime Licensing.
The content ideas are in the early development stages, but the documentary will focus on a specific time in Pele's soccer career. The producer-director roles have not been named.
Pele, born Edison Arantes do Nascimento in 1940, began playing for Santos Futebol Clube when he was 15, joined the Brazilian national team at 16 and led Brazil to the first of three World Cup championships at 17. As a professional, Pele scored more than 1,200 goals and earned the nickname "O Rei" (The King).
In 1967, his popularity influenced the two factions involved in the Nigerian Civil War to agree to a 48-hour cease-fire so they could watch Pele play an exhibition game in Lagos. Among his honors is an honorary British knighthood.

Victor Manuelle was a leading voice among the generation of New York salsa performers wHO rose to prominence in the mid-'90s, along with Marc Anthony and India, world Health Organization were his only rivals in footing of success and popularity. Mentored by Gilberto Santa Rosa and produced by Sergio George, Manuelle regularly topped the tropical charts during his mid-'90s tip, as his albums Superior Manuelle (1996) and A Pesar de Todo (1997) spun off a round-the-clock parade of numeral ane hits. The honored sonero continued his hitmaking in the age that followed, as every single one of his studio albums in the successive decade spun off at least one tropical chart-topper of its own. However, his encroachment on the Latin picture seemed to dim a meet as tropical euphony, including the salsa romántica elan championed by Manuelle, lost some of its popularity with the rise of Latin pop and reggaeton. Manuelle responded to the changing times most notably with Decisión Unámine (2006), which he executive-produced himself, his first time doing so on whatever of his albums; he also fictive the role of head songster hither as well. The album, his first released under Sony BMG's Norte banner, included nods to the co-occurrent reggaeton cult, and as a whole, it showcased Manuelle's ability to persist current with the changing tides of popular Latin music. Not that his relevance had of all time been questioned, for El Sonero de la Juventud, as Manuelle was highborn by his fans, remained among the top salsa performers year in and year out, and his legacy as one of the leading voices of his coevals remained firmly cemented for descendants. After all, it was he wHO sang "La Vida Es un Carnaval" a cappella at Celia Cruz's funeral at St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York in 2003, a gesture that definitely affirmed his royalty among the time-honoured salsa elite group. Still, Manuelle is not without his critics, some of whom do not regard his euphony truly salsa. Such purists take way out with the amorous leanings of his music, preferring to separate his music as bolero, or at least salsa romántica (opposed to just now unmingled salsa, or salsa gorda).Born VÃctor Manuel Ruiz on September 27, 1970, in New York, NY, Manuelle was raised in the main in Isabela, Puerto Rico. A far-famed incident jump-started his professional singing vocation: Gilberto Santa Rosa was scheduled to perform at the graduation party of Manuelle's high school, and the salsa caption invited the teenaged sonero to join him onstage during the performance. Santa Rosa was so impressed by Manuelle's talent, he afterward referred the pres Young man to bandleader Don Perignon, world Health Organization proceeded to hire him as a championship singer. Manuelle obtained invaluable experience and diligence contacts during his stretch with Perignon, and finally, he was awarded a solo recording contract with the Sony Tropical section of Sony Discos. Santa Rosa produced Manuelle's debut for the label, Justo a Tiempo... (1993), and a mates modest hits resulted ("Me Dará el Consentimiento," "Estás Tocando Fuego"). Manuelle's recording life history was off to a respectable set about, and his sec album, Sólo Contigo, furthered his initial success. It racked up trey charting singles ("Apiádate de MÃ," "Voy a Prometerme," "Por Ejemplo"), the number one of which climbed all the way to number ternary on the Latin Tropical/Salsa Airplay chart.Victor Manuelle (1996), the singer's third base album, was his breakthrough. Produced by the great Sergio George -- world Health Organization was the go to salsa hitmaker of the day, unused off the mammoth success of Marc Anthony's Todo a Su Tiempo (1995) and India's Dicen Que Soy (1994) -- the self-titled album spun turned one polish off later on some other, six of them charting in add ("Pensamiento y Palabra," "Hay Que Poner el Alma," "Volveras," "Todo Quedo, Quedo," "Como una Estrella"), with deuce reaching number one ("Hay Que Poner el Alma," "Volveras"). Manuelle's follow-up album, A Pesar de Todo (1997), too produced by George, along with co-producers Ramón Sánchez and Humberto RamÃrez, unbroken the hit parade march along unabatedly. Three of the album's four-spot charting singles hit number 1 ("Asà Es la Mujer," "Dile a Ella," "He Tratado" -- with "El Aguila" the one to fall short, arrival simply number two). Victor Manuelle and Dicen Que Soy not only when generated a bounty of polish off singles, just they stone-broke the singer into the Latin mainstream, as both albums made the Top Latin Albums chart, with the later going Top Ten. Moreover, many of the singles spun off from these albums made the Hot Latin Tracks chart, with a number of them going Top Ten.Ramón Sánchez took over the production reins from George for Manuelle's next two albums, IronÃas (1998) and Inconfundible (1999). Both were highly successful on a commercial footing, yet IronÃas was peculiarly so, including a wealth of hit singles ("Se Me Rompe el Alma," "Qué HabrÃa Sido de MÃ," "Al Igual Que Yo," "Qué Te Han Dicho"), the number one two of which were chart-toppers. Inconfundible included a chart-topper of its own ("Pero Dile"), along with three farther hits ("Si la Ves," "Como Quisiera Decirte," "Como Duele"). In addition to generating flock of airplay, the iI albums sold well: both topped the Tropical/Salsa album chart, with IronÃas breakage the Top Five of the Top Latin Albums chart and Inconfundible making it all the way to identification number 2. Nonetheless, commercial success solely tells half of the news report, for as popular as these albums were, Manuelle's music had begun to grow stale round this time. Sánchez's production may have been sculptured later on George's cheeky, street-edged levelheaded, just it was no equal. If anything, it was overdone, and indeed, IronÃas and Inconfundible arguably good over-produced in retrospect. Moreover, Manuelle himself didn't help matters, as the songs he panax quinquefolius become increasingly formulaic and predictably wild-eyed in subject.Manuelle stone-broke off from the stagnancy of his late-'90s work on IronÃas and Inconfundible by positioning himself with some new collaborators. He worked with a new producer, José Lugo, whose long heel of credits up to this item in time included steady work with Manuelle's wise man, Gilberto Santa Rosa, as advantageously as rival Marc Anthony. Besides Lugo, Manuelle brought on board Bobby ValentÃn, aka El Rey del Bajo, whose years as a storied bandleader date back up to the Fania All-Stars. With Lugo at the helm and ValentÃn providing inspiration, Manuelle fashioned his future album, Instinto y Deseo, as comparatively straightforward salsa. The throwback style of the album seemed to be a response to critics, including fans-turned-critics, with whom Manuelle had lost party favor. More than anything, though, it was plainly a welcome change of course for the sonero. If the critics remained carefully doubting, consumers sure took well to the record album: Instinto y Deseo topped the Hot Latin Albums chart and spawned a copulate of number 1 Tropical/Salsa Airplay singles, "Me Da Lo Mismo" and "Cómo Se Lo Explico al Corazón." Manuelle followed Instinto y Deseo with Le Preguntaba a la Luna, an even farther old fashioned album over again produced by Lugo. Notably, quaternion of the album's 11 songs were scripted by Manuelle, wHO previously had relied on professional songwriters, higher up all the prolific Omar Alfanno, wHO contributed one and only song to Le Preguntaba a la Luna, the chart-topping album-opener, "En Nombre de los Dos." Other hits from the record album included "Poco Hombre" and "El Tonto Que No Te Olvidó," the latter of which likewise attain number ane.With his salsa certification shored up in the eyes of many, Manuelle later on made a surprise leftfield turn and unabashedly went for the so-called crossover. Hence the name of his future album, TravesÃa (Crossover in English), and the producers with whom he worked, Emelio Estefan and the Gaitán Bros. (i.e., Alberto and Ricardo Gaitán), wHO between the deuce camps had worked with everyone from Gloria Estefan and Jon Secada to Ricky Martin and ThalÃa. These producers besides served as songwriters, writing most of the album's songs. A lot of fans and critics were place off by the pop up slant of the ballads that were sprinkled across the second half of the album, merely on the other hand, TravesÃa features a sizeable serving of topnotch salsa on the first half, with a few hits standing out ("Lloré, Lloré," "Tengo Ganas," "Te Propongo"). The ballads sequenced toward the conclusion of the album are less piquant, though the pop reading of "Tengo Ganas" was a sizeable reach, mounting up to number 11 on the Hot Latin Tracks chart. The record album itself sold exceptionally well, despite the unfavorable judgment; it reached identification number one on the Top Latin Albums chart. On the heels of Manuelle's "crossover," he performed a concert at Carnegie Hall in New York on November 8, 2004, that was later on released the following class on CD, produced by Estefan. The concert featured a moving interpreting of the of late passed forth Celia Cruz's signature sung, "La Vida Es un Carnaval," which Manuelle had sung dynasty a cappella at her funeral in 2003. The strain was released to radio as a exclusive and became a modest hit. Late in the yr, Sony released some other live album featuring Manuelle, Department of State Soneros, una Historia (2005), which showcased a unwell recorded, albeit milestone, concert likewise featuring Santa Rosa.Manuelle executive-produced his succeeding studio album, Decisión Unámine (2006), himself. It was his start release under the Norte banner of Sony BMG, and it was some other sharp turn of way. Rather than sledding for the crossing like last time, Manuelle took a purist overture, embracement his salsa roots, and included legion collaborations, including one with reggaeton champion Don Omar, 2 with swain salsero Eddie Palmieri, and one with Mexican sensation Yuridia. Lugo was back up at the production helm and ValentÃn is once more credited with placement, and together they, along with the other studio workforce, bring an old fashioned salsa style to the album that goes surprisingly well with the occasional nods to modern-day styles like reggaeton. Decisión Unámine failed to get hold of number one on the Hot Latin Albums chart, mounting only if to number six, merely it was a success even so, spinning off a few strong singles ("Nuestro Amor Se Ha Vuelto Ayer," "Maldita Suerte," "Nunca HabÃa Llorado AsÃ") and, in a higher place all, earning the praise of fans and critics. In fact, Decisión Unámine was possibly Manuelle's most admired album since Instinto y Deseo, if not A Pesar de Todo. In the wake of the album's splash, Manuelle co-hosted the 2006 Latin Grammys and north Korean won a 2007 Premio Lo Nuestro award for Best Salsa Artist.
