Graceful  authors  are  having  mixed reactions at  the  Russian  President Putin's  use  of  the name Graceful   for  his  Superyacht before now

Graceful  hopes for  peace  in every  troubled waters across the  region,  where  the Russian  Superyacht will  be sailing.

It  was  all laughter  and  mixed reactions for the  writers  of  Graceful   as  they learnt   about  the  Russian president's  decision  to  call  his  superyacht  "Graceful" before  now. The  magazine writers told  Grapevine  that  there  has been  so much  interest in the use  of  the  name  "Graceful"   by many  people , since the  magazine  was  launched  , but that  they write  about hope , love , peace, excellence, compassion, innovation  and good  news  , but  may not  know the reasons  why  the  Russian  president  Vladimir Putin made the  decision  to  chose the  name initially  for  his  superyacht .But  they  told their  readers  that  their  magazine  has  nothing  to do  with  the President  and the superyacht  and  its  name , as the magazine  continues to  write about  excellence, hope, good news, compassion  and innovation. The  magazine  writers   wondered why the Russians  chose  the  name "Graceful"  for  a  superyacht   that is close  to  wars initially,  but  whatever  it is  Graceful  and its  supporters  remain  hopeful  that  in the  nearest future,  peace  will  be made   between  the  warring Ukraine  and its Russian neighbours, as  the yacht  Kosatka continues to  sail in  the  troubled  waters  and  all the areas  affected by  the wars. Graceful  told  grapevine  that  they are  not  fans  of  global  turbulences  and  hope  that  the previous  use of  the name , will bring  divine  intervention  and   peace  to the warring neighbours. They  told  Grapevine that  they   still do  appreciate  the fact   that  many people   like  to  use the  magazine name  for  their  own concepts , but  they do  not  support  global  turbulences. They  hope  that  as  the  Russian superyacht Kosatka formerly  known as  Graceful sails  in the  troubled  waters  of  Russia, that  the  president   will consider having  compassion  towards  their  neighbours  and make  peace  with  their  Ukrainian  brothers and  former  friends as  we are all humans  and  can offend  our  neighbours  but  forgiveness is  divine .Graceful  told  their  readers  that the Superyacht  Kosatka is not them, to  avoid  confusions in the  future.Though  the name  of  the  Superyacht  has long  been changed, history  reckons  that  the  Superyacht  was  first named  Graceful  in  2022 ,but changed  to  Kosatka  in latter years and has nothing to  do with Graceful  magazine.

The United  Kingdom  prime minister  Sir  Keir Stammer  has banned social  media use   by  under  16's in the  United  Kingdom from early  2027  to the  delight  of some of the  youngsters whose  presence  in  the social  media  circles  has been cause  of  concern  and  anxiety to  many parents  as  social  media  companies  hit  back at  the  decision.This  ban  is  to  ensure the  safety  of  the  younger ones. It is  a big  news  in the  United Kingdom  as  many  parents  with the  under 16's  will  no longer be anxious about the  under  sixteens  pressing  their  mobile  phones  communicating  with  adults who  are not relatives. Some of the youngsters when  asked about  what they  feel  about  the  ban  told grapevine that  they  are  delighted  about the step  taken . Other  countries like  Australia  has  banned  the  underaged  from using  social  media  but the  prime  minister  Sir  Keir  Stammer  will be consulting  the  American President  Donald  Trump  regarding  his  decision.

Formula  one Champion  British Lewis Hamilton wins first grand prix for Ferrari

Champion-Lewis  Hamilton-Racing  for   Ferrari

It   has  been  celebrations  today  as  champion   formula  one  racer  Lewis  Hamilton  took  to the  podium to  receive  his  championship  winning  prize.

It was a  breath-taking end to a race that had tensions,suspence and jeopardy throughout as Hamilton got his first victory ever since the 2024 Belgian Grand Prix, as a driver racing  for  Mercedes  before  moving  to  be  a  Ferrari  driver.

The win turned on a virtual safety-car (VSC) period, which allowed Hamilton to  adopt  a different pit-stop strategy to Mercedes, to pit and retain the lead in the  race.

The other  Formula  one  driver Antonelli had just passed Russell for second place with five laps to go after a race-long battle when his racing car stopped, because of an electrical problem  making  his  supporters  worried  about  his  chances  of  winning  the race and  the  coveted price.

But Russell   became the second  finisher , while  McLaren's Lando Norris came third in the first all-British podium  since the 1968 US Grand Prix.

Hamilton told  them in  Spanish  language  "You've helped me achieve this dream. I am so proud of you". To my family, I love you, and to the fans, thank you for continuing to remind me of  who I am."

Memorable moments  in the  race remains  these-

1  The Confirmation of Hamilton and team Ferrari's return to the front.

2  Antonelli's first problem of the  racing  year  which opened  the needed  chance   for Russell.

3 The  moment  when  the   race turned  to the  favour  of  British  Lewis Hamilton.

4 The  final  finishing moment  when it remains  obvious that   Lewis  Hamilton has  won the  race.

It was constructed as part of the Phase Two development of the Barking Central regeneration project.The  Architectural  masterpiece  was designed  by Allford Hall Monaghan Morris (AHMM) on the former site of the R White's Lemonade factory giving  it the  name  Lemonade  building.The  building  houses  many  families  and  as of the time of the blaze  many  people  will  be  at  work,meaning  that many  of  those  affected  will only be hearing  about  what  happened  in their  building  on the news.
