Malta Places Last in 2nd Semi-Final in Latest Results

Malta Places Last in 2nd Semi-Final in Latest Results
May 12 2024 Share

The aftermath of the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest has brought to light some surprising outcomes, notably Malta’s disappointing finish in the second semi-final. Despite a strong performance by Sarah Bonnici, Malta found itself at the bottom of the scoreboard with a mere 13 points. Only four countries extended their support to Malta: France, Greece, San Marino, and Armenia, with minimal points awarded.

In contrast, Israel’s Eden Golan emerged as the night’s victor, despite facing controversies. Golan secured an impressive 194 points, narrowly surpassing Joost Klein from The Netherlands, who garnered 182 points. However, Klein’s journey was cut short as he was disqualified ahead of the final amid allegations of an altercation with a female member of the Swedish production crew.

Malta’s last-place finish comes as a surprise, particularly considering the country’s strong track record in the Eurovision Song Contest. The performance by Sarah Bonnici undoubtedly showcased talent and effort, yet it failed to resonate with the voting audience and juries alike.

While the dust settles on this year’s Eurovision, questions arise about the factors contributing to Malta’s unexpected result. Whether it was a matter of song choice, staging, or simply tough competition, Malta’s Eurovision journey in 2024 ends on a somber note. Nevertheless, the spirit of the contest persists, with each country’s performance serving as a testament to the diversity and creativity celebrated on the Eurovision stage.

May 12 2024 Share

Mother’s Day is an opportunity to show gratitude to the remarkable women who have influenced our lives. Making them happy is straightforward—by focusing on meaningful gestures that truly touch your mom’s heart.

These gestures may include spending quality time together, cooking her favorite meal, writing her a heartfelt letter, or expressing your love and appreciation in small, thoughtful ways. Here are five fail-proof gestures to make your mom feel cherished and loved on her special day.

Surprise her with a gift.

There’s nothing like the look of surprise and adoration from Mom whenever you give her a gift. While, of course, it’s the thought behind it that always counts, it’s okay to show your love and appreciation through something tangible. Surprise her with items that have been on her online shopping wish list, or take the initiative by getting her that new dining set she’s had her eye on for a while.

Cook up a meal(or three)!

This is probably the oldest trick in the book, but it works every time. Show Mom how much you love her by taking over the kitchen and paying her back for all the savory, home-cooked meals she’s provided over the years. The gesture of taking the extra effort to celebrate her will definitely make her feel the love on her special day. Don’t forget to select the freshest ingredients to ensure the meal you serve keeps her feeling good and healthy.

Create a spa experience at home.

Pamper your mother by creating a spa experience at home. Do a little research on a few simple techniques for massages and give her a great head massage and foot massage. She will feel relaxed and pampered. You can also try out some easy DIY pedicure, manicure, and face masks and have a great spa night! Play some soothing background music, light a few candles and voila, you have the perfect spa experience at home.

Clean the house.

Mom should never have to clean the house on Mother’s Day. Clean every inch of the house from top to bottom, and if it doesn’t need to be cleaned on Mother’s Day, give her an IOU for the next time it does.

Give her alone time.

This is also part of the pampering process: giving your mom some space. Every day, she juggles taking care of the family and maybe even her job. Give mom some quiet time to meditate, clear her head and do her own thing. Mother’s Day is about letting her celebrate the stunning woman that she is and giving her a whole reset day for herself. summarise this into one sentence.

You don’t have to plan an elaborate outing to celebrate Mother’s Day; spending it at home emphasizes that it’s the thought that counts. While grand gestures are nice, showing your mom love, hugs, and appreciation is equally meaningful. Just remember that, and you’ll know how to make her feel special on her day.

Recent developments in Ħal Far, Malta, signal significant progress in the preparatory work for the National Motorsport Center. The ongoing cleaning efforts, particularly focused on the future motorsport track circuit area, have seen substantial success.

This collaborative effort aims to enhance existing Drag Racing and Karting facilities while introducing a new circuit, all within designated development areas.

Parliamentary Secretary Glenn Bedingfield emphasised the project’s government-backed promise and highlighted the expanded role of the Cleaning and Maintenance Division. The first phase, focusing on Drag Racing track enhancements to secure FIA certification, sets the stage for international events. Duncan Micallef, President of the Malta Motorsport Federation, expressed gratitude for government support, marking the recent cleaning efforts as a significant step forward.

As work progresses, stakeholders anticipate the National Motorsport Centre’s role in elevating Malta’s motorsport scene, providing a top-tier venue for enthusiasts and professionals alike.
