LONDON: Britain's Prince Philip, a constant presence at Queen Elizabeth II's side for decades, died on Friday (Apr 9) at age 99, Buckingham Palace announced. The death of the Duke of Edinburgh is a profound loss for the 94-year-old monarch, who once described him as her "strength and stay all these years". The outspoken former navy commander devoted much of his life as the queen's consort to charity work - but was notorious for numerous gaffes, many deemed downright offensive. He was admitted to hospital on Feb 16, 2021, and went home after a month during which he was treated for a pre-existing heart condition and an infection. Announcing his passing, BBC television played the national anthem over a picture of Philip in his prime, dressed in military dress uniform Philip, who was by the queen's side for nearly eight decades, retired from public duties in 2017 at the age of 96. His death came just months before his 100th birthday in June - an event typically marked in Britain with a congratulatory message from the queen, who is now Britain's longest-serving monarch. The couple, who celebrated their 73rd wedding anniversary in November, had been living largely in isolation at Windsor Castle, west of London, because their advanced age put them at heightened risk from COVID-19. Philip and the queen received their first vaccinations against the virus in January. https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/world/prince-philip-dies-99-britain-queen-elizabeth

Sleeping beauties await prince's kiss in Ukraine http://sg.news.yahoo.com/sleeping-beauties...-063153562.html ..It wasn't exactly Prince Charming but one of Ukraine's "Sleeping Beauties" finally got a kiss on the lips as she dozed on a dais filmed by cameras -- though unlike the fairy tale she never woke up. "I'm not sure I would marry precisely this girl, I just was curious whether she would open her eyes," said the young woman who dared the embrace while male visitors shied away. The venue was Ukraine's National Art Museum and the stakes were -- marriage. Visitors at a wacky performance called "Sleeping Beauty" were allowed to kiss a series of volunteer Sleeping Beauties -- but only if they signed an undertaking to marry the woman if she "wakes up". Those reluctant to commit to a perfect stranger were allowed to look at the "princess" slumbering in a white dress in the dimly lit room, but not lock lips. "I'm not ready to kiss a woman on the first date, and it's definitely the first time I've ever seen her," said Oleksandr Dankov, 43, after choosing not to steal a smooch. But "perhaps I'll come again," he told AFP. Yana Krasnokutska, 23, was more daring. "It's a fairy tale, so I was just curious to try it," she told AFP, smiling after kissing the "Beauty" lightly on the lips. The performance was created by Ukrainian-Canadian artist Taras Polataiko, who said he had been working on this project for the last two years. He was inspired by the well-loved fairytale in which a young princess is put under a curse and sleeps for hundreds of years along with her kingdom. She is finally awoken by a kiss from a prince who loves her. The women in Kiev slept in public for two hour-long shifts each day, with a half-hour break between. "The idea behind the project is patience," Polataiko told AFP. "Our people can be patient for a long time. While Beauty is sleeping, the entire kingdom is also sleeping. If the kingdom is to be woken, the Beauty must be woken." Polataiko said that he chose as his Sleeping Beauties attractive women who were also looking for a steady partner. "All the five girls I've chosen are gorgeous, smart and waiting for a true love," he said, adding that he initially planned having only one Sleeping Beauty but ended giving the others a chance too. "We have three or four visitors every day willing to awake the Sleeping Beauty, both men and women," he told AFP. "This isn't a marriage agency. It's magic, it's a fairy tale. No one knows how it will end," said Polataiko. Natalya Bakovskaya, 27, was the first sleeping beauty to do a three-day stint waiting for her prince after her sisters told her about the casting call on television. "When it started, I got really involved in it and felt as if I was in a fairy tale," she told AFP. "I could hardly sleep with all the cameras and visitors on the first day, but afterwards I enjoyed the two hours of the rest in the middle of the day and even felt a kind of drowsiness," Bakovskaya said. She said she did not open her eyes and so never did find her prince, although one of the kisses she received was "especially memorable". Later she tried watching a video of her kisses to identify the young man who kissed her on the first day, but did not succeed. Finally the fairy tale ended with a non-traditional twist as the fourth Sleeping Beauty opened her eyes after a kiss, to find not a prince, but a princess. "I was astonished when I opened my eyes and saw a girl," translator Yana Gurzhiy, 24, told AFP after she decided to open her eyes when she was kissed on the forehead. Ukraine does not allow gay marriage, making it impossible for Gurzhiy to tie the knot with her pursuer, but she said she had felt a connection with the woman who kissed her, whom she named only as Katya. "I believe it is not a coincidence we had to meet this way. She's a very interesting person, so I hope we'll have some kind of professional and creative partnership." A fifth Sleeping Beauty was set to take her place in the performance, which was to end September 9. ..

Fernando Alonso underlined his status as Singapore's Prince of Darkness, by winning the night-time grand prix for the second time in three years and edging closer to leader Mark Webber in the F1 championship. - 0 Related Links * Alonso wins in Singapore * Korean GP could be cancelled The Spaniard steered his Ferrari to victory in punishing conditions on the twisty street circuit to edge out the snarling Red Bulls of Sebastian Vettel and Webber. The win allowed Alonso to leapfrog last year's winner Lewis Hamilton - who failed to finish the race after a collision with Webber - into second place in the drivers' championship, 11 points behind Australian Webber. Within seconds of taking the chequered flag he was cranking up the psychological warfare with just four races remaining in the 2010 season. "We are in a sport where you cannot be 100 percent fit and focused for all the races, all the months - so we go up and down," the Spaniard said. "We can say that now, at this point, I am at a peak, 100 percent motivated. It is good to be at this point now. "This year it feels for me the championship has just started so I am very happy. "It seems we can be competitive on any track. So let's see in the remaining races. And 'Forza Ferrari'." Prior to the race Alonso had rated his chances of winning the championship as '50-50'. "I can win, or I can not win," he smiled enigmatically, before revisiting the theme with yet more statistics. "We are five drivers," he said, referring to the two he shared Sunday's podium with plus McLaren pair Hamilton and Jenson Button. "Around 20 percent chance all of us. Maybe Mark a little bit in front, because he is leading. "It remains very tight. Mark is still first with some margin, so... for the others we need to keep catching. For sure we will do our best -- we don't know if it will be enough. We hope so but people can be sure we (Ferrari) will fight 100 percent to the end." Alonso's confident demeanour betrayed the twice champion's diplomacy and with a glint he added: "Anything can happen in these four races. Any of us can win two or three consecutive races. "Or you have two or three retirements and you are off the championship. It will depend all on these four races. Hopefully with no mistakes, high concentration, we keep momentum in Japan." The circuit moves to Suzuka next followed by South Korea, Brazil and the finale in Abu Dhabi in November. Source http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/260920...so-m-peak.html

Finally found some time and energy to post this! Baby Isaac arrived on the 18th of April. My wifey had an epidural C-section due to Baby Isaac refusing to turn downwards into the birth canal. She is a very brave mummy and Daddy was able to witness Isaac's arrival and cut his cord. Even as the days and nights are long, sleep are sacred, countless of diaper changes, 3hr interval feeding patterns, attention-seeking wails, it's all worth it when he flashed his smile or give a contented sigh after feeding!!
