Law’s on His Side: Denmark’s Prince Frederik spent the first hours of the new year in a police station, Copenhagen police revealed Friday. Fashion model Marie Louise Aamund was behind the wheel and Frederick was a passenger in his car when she was pulled over on suspicion of drunk driving after leaving a New Year’s bash. Frederik, 23, followed her to a police station, where police found him “heavily under the influence of alcohol,” a newspaper reported. Charges were filed against Aamund, but Frederick did not have to worry: Members of the royal family are immune from prosecution.

Grave News: It was a first and exclusive interview of the fourth kind. London psychic Nella Jones says she talked to the Daily Mirror’s late publisher Robert Maxwell from beyond the grave, and the story is right there in the Mirror’s major competitor, the Sun. Jones says she asked Maxwell whether he committed suicide. “I am not a coward. Try again,” she says he said.

Sun Shine: Fashion designer Geoffrey Beene may be based in the Big Apple, but it’s pineapple country he really fancies. “I’ve just spent three weeks in Europe, two in New York and a few days in California, but I couldn’t wait to get back,” the 64-year-old said after dropping his bags in Honolulu. It’s his third visit in 12 months, and now he’s basking in the glow of the success of his “Polynesia” spring line--inspired by Hawaiian sarongs--and mulling over the purchase of a manse on the beach.

Executive Order: The commander in chief, after recently commanding the nation’s children to get in shape, recalled a similar order from his own mother. George Bush says when he was 9 he came in from a game of tennis complaining he was off his game. “ ‘Never mind off your game,’ she said. ‘Get back out there and practice! Do something!’ ” Bush recalled. Now 67, the President runs 2 miles three times a week and admonishes young people: “Stop watching television so much and get outdoors and do something.”
