One of sports' biggest power couples has a baby on the way.

Former tennis No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki and ex-NBA All-Star David Lee are expecting a baby girl in June, Wozniacki announced through social media on Wednesday:

Both athletes have been retired for more than a year now. Lee hung up his sneakers back in 2017, while Wozniacki called it a career after the 2020 Australian Open.

Both careers were quite accomplished, with Lee receiving two All-Star nods with the New York Knicks and Golden State Warriors, the latter with which Lee won a championship ring in 2015. Wozniacki ascended to the WTA No. 1 ranking in 2010 and stayed there for over a year, and returned to the spot in 2018. Once a candidate for the title of "greatest player to never win a Grand Slam," Wozniacki finally broke through with the 2018 Australian Open title.

The pair have been together since at least 2017, when Wozniacki announced the relationship on social media, and married in June 2019.

    Malaysia on Tuesday granted conditional approval for the use of vaccines made by UK firm AstraZeneca and China's Sinovac, just days after launching its nationwide COVID-19 inoculation programme. Malaysia began its vaccination drive on Feb. 24 using a shot developed by U.S. drugmaker Pfizer and German partner BioNTech, as it tries to rein in a spike in infections and help revive an economy that recorded its worst slump in more than two decades last year. The conditional approval means Malaysia will use the vaccines developed by Astrazeneca and Sinovac, but both firms - along with Pfizer - will be required to provide additional data on rolling submissions to ensure the vaccines' effectiveness and safety, health director-general Noor Hisham Abdullah said in a statement.

  • Global Military Embedded Systems Market (2020 to 2025) - Development of EW Systems with Enhanced Capabilities Presents Opportunities

    Dublin, March 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Military Embedded Systems Market by Component (Hardware, Software), Server Architecture (Blade Server, Rack-Mount Server), Platform (Land, Airborne, Naval, Space), Installation (New Installation, Upgradation), Application, Services, and Region - Global Forecast to 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The military embedded systems market size is projected to grow from USD 1.4 billion in 2020 to USD 2.1 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 8.3% from 2020 to 2025. Various improvements in integrated circuits and processor technologies have led to a decline in the overall hardware costs associated with embedded systems. Adoption of modern blade servers is growing, especially in network-centric military applications. Military electronic equipment has undergone tremendous advancements during the past few years. Some of the key requirements in electronic devices and systems used for military applications include high reliability, efficiency, and compact size. Due to these requirements, market players put enormous efforts into developing technologically advanced embedded systems. Rack-mount server segment is estimated to grow at highest CAGR in the military embedded systems market in 2020. Based on server architecture, the rack-mount server segment of the military embedded systems market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of this segment can be attributed due to the increasing demand in naval weapon systems and commend command and control centers to drive the market for rack-mount server. Rugged rackmount server is highly used in naval, airborne and ground-based applications. In 2019, Mercury Systems included over 50 Models to its rugged server product line. Enhanced Reliability: EnterpriseSeries servers see a wide range of military-grade specifications, including MIL-STD 810G, 461F (EMI/RFI), 901D (shock), 167-1 (vibration), 1474-D (airborne noise), and 740-2 (structural borne noise). New installation type segment is estimated to lead the military embedded systems market in 2020. Based on the Installation Type, the new installation segment of the market is expected to lead the market, and the trend is likely to continue until 2025.

  • On the COVID-19 frontline but half of French care home workers don't trust vaccine

    Marie-France Boudret, who works in a French home for the elderly, watched a patient suffocate to death in front of her because COVID-19 had infected his lungs. Around half of health workers in French care homes do not want to be vaccinated, according to the group of experts guiding the state's vaccine rollout - compared to only 20% of the residents who have not been inoculated. If significant numbers of care home workers do not get the jab, they could transmit the disease to residents who are not vaccinated and at high risk of serious illness, say advocates for the elderly.
