Bust of Kaiser Wilhelm II
Kaisrer Wilhelm's Dutch Refuge Under Threat
He lost a war, an empire, a crown and a country. Now, nearly a century after the beginning of the bloodbath his ambition spawned, the last Kaiser of Germany is poised to lose his final resting place in the country that offered him sanctuary.
Holland is pulling the plug on House Doorn, the refuge for Kaiser Wilhelm II - known to a generation who fought the Great War as Kaiser Bill - as part of the general austerity cuts sweeping a Europe he tried so desperately to conquer. A unique shrine to his times, his ambition and, above all, to his overarching vanity, House Doorn and its ghosts are about to be mothballed for eternity for the sake of less than 200,000 pounds.
That is the shortfall between what the mansion and its treasures takes in from paying visitors and what the Dutch state, pressed like most others in Europe, pays in annual grants to keep the time capsule of the Kaiser's life open. If it closes in the new year, as it must if no solution is found, this martial Downton Abbey will be shuttered and its truly priceless treasures - from ornate silverware and porcelain, to uniforms and photos, letters and medals that drape like flowers from behind glass frames - boxed and hidden from view for good.
What makes House Doorn unique among historical sites is the fact that the clock stopped on June 4 1941 when he died and nothing has changed since. The bed he breathed his last on is still made up, adorned with the last bouquet of dried flowers from his son he ever received; the last cigar he never got to smoke still sits in the turret room, which he turned into a study, next to the correspondence he never got to finish. The dining table, complete with its graceful silver birds seemingly moving through a forest of cutlery an...

Wilhelm, the fun loving polar bear, North Carolina Zoo, America - Nov 2008
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Valerie Abbot/Solent News / Rex Features ( 815576f )
Wilhelm the polar bear, Polar bear Wilhelm spent his younger days in a circus - which may explain why he is so good at clowning around.{br}But now, weighing in at around 1000lbs, Wilhelm delights visitors to a zoo with his impressive underwater antics.{br}The bear has a few party-pieces including skillfully playing with this buoyancy aid...just like the ones used by lifeguards in TV's Baywatch. Indeed, Wilhelm even tries 'surfing' the float underwater, after leaping onto it from the side of his pool. Then, after an hour's playtime, it's time for a rest, tongue-out, his paws resting on the float. The impressive images of Wilhelm were captured by Valerie Abbott a volunteer at the the North Carolina Zoological Park, USA.{br}The 22 year old bear was among six polar bears confiscated from the Suarez Brothers Circus in southern Puerto Rico in 2002.
Wilhelm The Performing Polar Bear
WILHELM THE PERFORMING POLAR BEAR
While Germany's polar bear Knut may have gone from cute cub to brutal bear, Wilhelm, the bear at America's North Carolina Zoological Park, has not forgotten his entertainment roots.
Having spent his cubhood in a circus, the 1,000lb polar bear certainly remembers how to have fun and entertain the paying customer while he does it.
Only last year he made the news as he showed off his tricks, such as blowing bubbles through his nose against the glass of his tank, sticking his head into a bucket, messing about with a traffic cone and balancing a ball on his nose.
Now it appears that he has a few new ones up his furry sleeves: he holds a toy up to his ear as if he were chatting on a telephone and jumps on to a red 'Baywatch'-style float as if it were a surfboard.
However, all these hijinks come at a cost: after an hour of hardcore frolicking and giving the punters their money's worth, Wilhelm is...

Wilhelm the polar bear, Polar bear Wilhelm spent his younger days in a circus - which may explain why he is so good at clowning around.{br}But now, weighing in at around 1000lbs, Wilhelm delights visitors to a zoo with his impressive underwater antics.{br}The bear has a few party-pieces including skillfully playing with this buoyancy aid...just like the ones used by lifeguards in TV's Baywatch. Indeed, Wilhelm even tries 'surfing' the float underwater, after leaping onto it from the side of his pool. Then, after an hour's playtime, it's time for a rest, tongue-out, his paws resting on the float. The impressive images of Wilhelm were captured by Valerie Abbott a volunteer at the the North Carolina Zoological Park, USA.{br}The 22 year old bear was among six polar bears confiscated from the Suarez Brothers Circus in southern Puerto Rico in 2002.

WILHELM THE PERFORMING POLAR BEAR
While Germany's polar bear Knut may have gone from cute cub to brutal bear, Wilhelm, the bear at America's North Carolina Zoological Park, has not forgotten his entertainment roots.
Having spent his cubhood in a circus, the 1,000lb polar bear certainly remembers how to have fun and entertain the paying customer while he does it.
Only last year he made the news as he showed off his tricks, such as blowing bubbles through his nose against the glass of his tank, sticking his head into a bucket, messing about with a traffic cone and balancing a ball on his nose.
Now it appears that he has a few new ones up his furry sleeves: he holds a toy up to his ear as if he were chatting on a telephone and jumps on to a red 'Baywatch'-style float as if it were a surfboard.
