Queen Elizabeth II’s husband will need “treatment, rest and recuperation,” raising the prospect that he will still be in hospital when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s tell-all interview is broadcast on Sunday. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are set to accuse the royal family of playing a role in “perpetuating falsehoods about us” in their interview with Oprah Winfrey. However, commentators in Britain have called for the broadcast to be postponed until Philip, who is 99, has recovered....

The estate shared his note, catalogued in Prince’s personal archives, to social media on what would have been the performer’s 62nd birthday. He passed away in 2016 at the age of 57. “Prince dedicated his life to speaking out against injustice, advocating for black excellence, and spreading the message of ‘Love 4 One Another.’ In this note that he kept in his personal archives, he wrote a message that still resonates today,” the estate wrote on Twitter early Sunday morning....

Princess Charlotte, 7, the daughter of Prince William and Kate Middleton, has been the focus of increased media attention over the past 10 months.

Andrew Morton told Newsweek he was twice warned efforts were being made to out the source for his bombshell biography Diana: Her True Story—even as a public backlash accused him of making up its dramatic revelations. In reality, Diana was his source and—as the Netflix series shows—made tape recordings for him in which she described the full ordeal of her struggles with bulimia and suicidal thoughts against the backdrop of Charles’ affair with Camilla, now the Queen Consort....

Now Stone’s new album “Mahogany Soul” has critics calling the thirtysomething (she won’t be more specific) singer the “princess of soul,” and the only candidate worthy of Aretha’s throne. “A lot of people follow trends, and will do whatever it takes to become a star: ‘OK, I’ll give you any-thing you want, even if it means faking the funk’,” says the New York-based Stone. “A lot of those artists are miserable....

NewsNation host Ashleigh Banfield asked Levine, the founder of Wall Street Prison Consultants, what would happen to Kohberger if he ends up in the state penitentiary and what would his jail circumstances look like. “Well, most likely he’s gonna be in protective custody because if they let him in ‘general population’ [there’s a] good possibility somebody is going to try to take him out and kill him,” Levine said. “You’ll get a lot of street cred in a prison by committing violence against somebody who’s an informant, somebody who’s a child molester, somebody that abuses women....

The South Carolina Department of Corrections said Thursday that 43-year-old Marcy T. Shaffer had been arrested and charged with misconduct in office, possession of narcotics with intent to distribute and furnishing prisoners with contraband. Authorities say that Shaffer admitted to the crime and was fired after her arrest. “The charges against her involve attempting to smuggle the pills into the institution in a Rice Krispies treat,” a press release from the department states....

In 1980, before their boys were born, Kathy and Curtis House took a calculated risk: rather than move to the suburbs, they chose to become “urban pioneers.” On Oakwood Boulevard, hub of a once prosperous black community, they found and totally rebuilt their brick-and-limestone home. They organize older residents of Oakland into an extended family network: when Curtis feels the itch to visit the mall, a retired neighbor takes him there....

The Hall responded to a report by The New York Times that said Seau’s family, specifically his daughter, Sydney, would not be allowed to speak at the enshrinement. MORE: Legendary NFL sack masters | C.J. Wilson ‘stepping away’ from football Hall of Fame spokesman Joe Horrigan told Omnisport on Friday evening that “somewhere along the line,” The New York Times erred by not reading the entire release about the Hall of Fame presenters....

Well, what I should say is that professional lacrosse player Paul Rabil threw a ball across Baltimore’s inner harbor, but nobody actually caught it. Since the harbor was frozen over, it allowed Rabil and a buddy to skid the ball across the ice until the other could pick it up. Still, that’s impressive. Maybe lacrosse would be a lot more fun if you had to skate on ice the whole time....

Jansen, who cofounded the Global Fire Ministries International in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, was a guest speaker at the Redmond, Oregon-based Ignite Faith Church, where he repeatedly demanded to know “where are the men” among America’s modern church leaders. Jansen said U.S. churches have been “neutered” as he interwove gun control measures with femininity. He boasted that ushers at his church services “all pack” guns during services, and he’s instructed them to “kill” anyone they may consider a threat to him or other Global Fire Ministries members....

TO BECKY GARLAND, TED KACZYNSKI WAS that “hermit kind of guy” who shopped at her family’s dry-goods store in Lincoln, Mont., a couple of times a year. “Over the years we had a few conversations about things, but we didn’t talk long. Mostly I saw him maybe every six months or so and would usually just wave ‘Hi Ted’,” she says. That changed in the summer of 1994 when Kaczynski, after years of self-imposed isolation, decided Garland was someone he could trust....

Programmed theories of aging assert that aging is an essential and innate part of the biology of humans and that aging is programmed into our body systems. Otherwise, we would live forever. The three main systems that are connected with aging are the endocrine (hormonal) system, the immune system, and our genes. These systems change over time, and these changes cause the symptoms and signs of aging. The Body Is Not a Machine In order to understand this concept, it is important to recognize that the body is indeed not a machine....

Millions of Americans remain unemployed as many struggle to pay rent and to afford adequate food to feed their families because of the economic fallout of the coronavirus pandemic. Meanwhile, the White House, Democrats and Republicans have been negotiating a new relief package off and on since May, when House Democrats put forward their opening offer—a more than $3 trillion bill that Republicans dismissed as a Democratic “wish list.”...

This article discusses progressive muscle relaxation, the benefits, and how to do it. What Is Progressive Muscle Relaxation? Progressive muscle relaxation involves alternately between contracting and relaxing your muscles throughout the body, in a specific order. This can be done from the top down, starting at your head, or from the bottom up, beginning at your toes. Being under stress activates your sympathetic nervous system, which is your fight-or-flight response....

Representatives Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) and Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) said the third coronavirus relief bill was an urgent priority for struggling Americans, and argued that their party had to move forward with its $1.9 trillion stimulus plan. Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) also said providing emergency relief was the “most important issue” facing the U.S. at the moment, as he cautioned against a focus on bipartisan support and compromise. Speaking to MSNBC on Sunday, Sen....

Neymar rolled his ankle and sprained it at the tail end of PSG’s 3-0 Ligue 1 win against Olympique Marseille on Sunday night and subsequent examinations by the club’s medical department revealed a crack in the playmaker’s fifth metatarsal. An injury to that part of the foot takes time to heal, no matter if you’re worth €222 million or €2. “It is true that today the chances of Neymar being ready are smaller than they were last Sunday,” Emery said....

Data from 25 states suggests an 8% decline in births from December 2020 to February 2021. That three-month span had about 41,000 fewer births than the same period a year earlier. Births for all of 2020 were down 4.3 percent from 2019. “When there’s a crisis, I don’t think people are thinking about reproduction,” said Dr. John Santelli, a Columbia University professor of population and family health who reviewed the AP’s analysis....

By injecting a solution of dextrose (a natural sugar chemically identical to the body’s own glucose) prolotherapy providers aim to provide non-surgical healing for inflamed and damaged joints. Here’s what you should know about the efficacy and risks of prolotherapy. What Prolotherapy Involves The theory behind prolotherapy is the belief that injecting an irritant solution (typically dextrose) into a joint or tendon triggers the body’s natural healing process. Prolotherapy solutions contain between 12% to 25% dextrose and sometimes also have additives like zinc, human growth hormone, ozone, manganese, platelet-rich plasma, or bone marrow....
