The National Constitution Center's 2012 Liberty Medal is a super special honor — and we're happy to report that this year's recipient is none other than the legend himself, Muhammad Ali!

He was presented the award from Terrance Howard, and his daughter, Laila Ali.

It was a big honor regardless, but it was also the U.S. Constitution's 225th Anniversary, held at the National Constitution Center — so it was amplified in excitement a bit!

Congrats, Muhammad!

Prince Harry kept it in his pants long enough to make a public appearance at the Paralympics! Ha!

He was spotted hanging out with several Paralympians, including Jessica-Jane Applegate.

Applegate won the gold medal in swimming in the controversial intellectually disabled classification.

The classification has been controversial since Spain had a gold medal winning team at Sydney in 2000 where none of the players had any intellectual impairment and one was even a professional basketball player!

That's awful!

Applegate actually has Asperger's syndrome, which is on the autism spectrum, so she was legit!

Losers (like Spain's cheater team) get embarrassed and are awful, winners get to meet Prince Harry!

Way to go, Paralympians!

Gabby Douglas is becoming America's sweetheart!

And she deserves every second of attention after bringing home her two Olympic golds!

On an upcoming episode of Oprah's Next Chapter, Oprah talks with Gabby D!

Gabby said:

"I showed her a couple of tricks and I made her get up on the beam and do a scale, so that was fun!"
