Winter Olympic Gold for Kim Yuna
Korean figure skater Kim Yuna has won the gold medal of women’s figure skating at the Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Official results here.
Kim scored 150.06 points in the free program on Thursday night (local time) and a new world record total of 228.56 points to earn South Korea its first ever Olympic gold medal in figure skating.
Japan’s Mao Asada and Canada’s Joannie Rochette retained their position from the short program to win the silver and bronze.
The term Grand Slam is not often used in figure skating, but it’s worth mentioning that Kim is the first ever lady to hold the title of 4CC, World Championships, Grand Prix Final and Winter Olympics at the same time.
Time to claim my free beer from the Korean guys lol. Image from Chosun [Kr]

Isabella Leong gave birth to baby boy
Chinese starlet Isabella Leong gave birth to a baby boy on April 26 in Toronto, Canada.
Isabella, 21, and HKG billionaire Richard Li, 42, started their relationship in March 2008. There were rumours in early 2009 that the actress was pregnant, but nobody took it seriously.
Come to think of it… it’s probably the main reason why her ex-agency EEG had softened over their contract dispute; the company must have realised about the fact (probably told by Richard) and was made to reach the settlement deal in November 2008. Image via Thestandard.
The baby’s name is Ethan Li Changzhi (loose translation). Best wishes.
