A known Swedish criminal broke into a boarding school dormitory where Sweden8217;s 18-year-old Prince Carl Philip was sleeping, but was apprehended in a corridor by school officials, the daily Expressen has reported. The man, whose name was not disclosed, is under police investigation for trespassing for the November 10 incident in the middle of the night at the posh Lundsberg School. 8220;The man was able to get into the building before he was noticed. The student housing manager asked him what he wanted, and he replied oddly. He asked if he could have a glass of water,8221; Lundsberg Principal Anders Lundin told the paper. Lundin said the man, who was discovered just yards from the prince8217;s bedroom, did not appear threatening.
Tea at the palace
The all-conquering All Blacks rugby squad enjoyed dainty sandwiches and delicate cream cakes but refused more fat-packed snacks when they took tea with Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace. The 36 New Zealand players and nine staff were introduced to their royal host by captain Sean Fitzpatrick, but it seems the fearsome All Blacks have lost their appetite 8212; at least for fat-packed teatime snacks. Palace chefs had laid on extra salmon, salad and cheese sandwiches, vol-au-vents, chocolate, caramel and ginger cake, cream sponge and scones with jam and cream. The Princess Royal joined the tea party and was presented with two All Blacks jerseys for her rugby-playing son Peter Phillips, 20, and daughter Zara, 20. Two more jerseys were produced for Prince William, 15, and Prince Harry, 13, and were handed to the Queen to pass on to her grandsons.
OJ8217;s house
O.J. SIMPSON8217;S house has been sold to help satisfy the 33.5 million wrongful death suit penalty against the former US football great, The Los Angeles Times reported. The re-landscaped Brentwood estate, which has over recent months become a magnet for potential buyers, journalists and the curious, reportedly sold for slightly less than its 3.95-million asking price. The buyer was not identified but The Times said that he lives on the East coast.The house was on and off the market for two years before it finally sold. Simpson moved out of the house in September after the civil judgement against him for the slashing deaths of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend, Ronald Goldman.
Therapy role
Jennifer Tilly, nominated for an Academy Award for her role in a Woody Allen film, says the only thing that helps with her roles is going to therapy. Like Allen, Tilly depends on analysts, and she thinks it makes her a better actress. 8220;I think that people who go to a psychiatrist are better actors because after they go they can get in touch with their emotions better,8221; Tilly giggles. 8220;Before I went I couldn8217;t cry on cue, but now after a few years of therapy, I can. When you8217;re an emotional wreck in front of people, you get in touch with yourself.
