DALVAY-BY-THE-SEA, Prince Edward Island — Prince William enjoyed showing off his military helicopter training with his first-ever water landing Monday to the delight of anxious crowds in Canada, where he and his wife, Kate, have been on their first official overseas trip since their wedding. The Duke of Cambridge climbed into the cockpit of a Sea King helicopter for the military training exercise at Dalvay by-the-Sea, a scenic resort along Prince Edward Island’s north shore. Prince William, a Royal Air Force rescue helicopter pilot, requested the simulated emergency landing procedure. Dressed in an olive flight suit and helmet, the prince settled the large helicopter on the water several times. From the water, William piloted several take-offs and hovered in the air before executing dual- and single-engine landings before taxiing around as Kate watched from the ground. “He was looking for his wife on the shoreline at one point,” said Col. Sam Michaud, 42, who trained William. “She was waving back about 100 feet away.” Pictures: William and Kate on Prince Edward IslandWilliam, Kate baby rumors starting already Michaud said William is now fully trained.

(CBS/AP) “Harry Potter” star Daniel Radcliffe has revealed he battled with a secret alcohol problem and is no longer drinking. The 21-year-old actor tells GQ U.K. that he began to drink too much while filming “Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince,” the sixth movie in the “Potter” film franchise, in 2009. Pictures: Daniel RadcliffePictures:”Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” Premiere “I became so reliant on (alcohol) to enjoy stuff,” he told the magazine “There were a few years there when I was just so enamored with the idea of living some sort of famous person’s lifestyle that really isn’t suited to me.” “As much as I would love to be a person that goes to parties and has a couple of drinks and has a nice time – that doesn’t work for me. I do that very unsuccessfully,” he said about his decision to cut out drinking altogether, instead of simply cutting down. “I’d just rather sit at home and read, or go out to dinner with someone, or talk to someone I love, or talk to somebody that makes me laugh.” Radcliffe adds that sobriety has also helped him become a better boyfriend. “I’m actually enjoying the fact that I can have a relationship with my girlfriend (Olive Uniacke) where I’m really pleasant and not f—— up totally all the time,” he says. Radcliffe shot to fame...

Updated 6:40 PM ET (CBS/AP) WASHINGTON – The Obama administration said Tuesday that Pakistan was reopening its supply lines into Afghanistan, after the U.S. belatedly issued an apology for the November killing of 24 Pakistani troops in a NATO airstrike. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton expressed her condolences for the deaths in a telephone conversation with Pakistani Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar. The incident badly damaged already strained relations between the two countries and forced the U.S. and its allies to send supplies via costlier northern routes into Afghanistan. “We are sorry for the losses suffered by the Pakistani military,” Clinton said in a statement, recounting her discussion with Khar. “I offered our sincere condolences to the families of the Pakistani soldiers who lost their lives. Foreign Minister Khar and I acknowledged the mistakes that resulted in the loss of Pakistani military lives.” More in Afghanistan: The way forward White House, Pakistan in talks on supply linesPakistan FM: Time to reopen NATO supply route It is the first time any U.S. official has formally apologized for the deaths, a step hotly debated within the Obama administration and one demanded by Pakistan while its supply routes remained closed for seven months.
