Not Very Good (News)

April 16, 2013 By Daniel Mihai Popescu Leave a Comment

They’re not news actually, except one, unfortunately. Sharon Osbourne left Ozzie and lives now at Beverly Hills Hotel. Looking after some fresh info about America’s Got Talent, I found that not only she was replaced with two ladies, Heidi Klum and Mel B, making the jury similar with the one in Britain, but she also left her own house. These with the break-up are almost fresh. So fresh that papers like The Mirror just published that online just 40′ ago. They were both once, toxic substances dependent, they were together for too much time. People hope they had just a fight and nothing more. It’s not ok, but it’s not the end of the world. Next, are two pictures of them before the break-up, twenty five years difference from one another.

In these twenty five years, she is looking better than Ozzy, who is more than a little bit crumpled.

Other two bad news are that Margaret Thatcher and Boris Berezovsky died recently and I was so hooked up in technical problems that I haven’t yet founded the time to make them a proper eulogy.

Margaret Thatcher, Former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1979 to 1990 and the Leader of the Conservative Party from 1975 to 1990, died on April 8, 2013, in London. She was born in Grantham, on October 13, 1925. Her funeral will take place tomorrow at St Paul’s Cathedral, and US President Barack Obama who was invited, opted to send a delegation with no political representation. “No political” is because the group led by George Shultz and James Baker, who both were US secretary of state while Thatcher was in power, has no official position with the US Government of today. Since her American counterpart, President Ronald Reagan was popular in the United States because of his former career as an Hollywood actor, Margaret Thatcher was dread in the United Kingdom, for her strong policies on what was called “the poll tax”, something to do with strong taxation for the benefit of the poor, but coordinated by Lord Rothschild at the time. It was also called “The Community Charge”. She has decreased the power and influence of the Unions and if she ever was popular, she became more than that during the war between Great Britain and Falkland Islands. Very nice and proudly.

Boris Abramovich Berezovsky (23 January 1946 – 23 March 2013) was a Russian business oligarch, government official and mathematician. He was a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences. A former supporter of Vladimir Putin, Berezovsky became a vocal critic of the Russian President, for the remainder of his life. After the Russian Deputy Prosecutor General demanded that he appear for questioning, he did not return from abroad and moved to the UK, which granted him political asylum in 2003. In Russia he was later convicted in of economic crimes. Russia repeatedly failed to obtain the extradition of Berezovsky from Britain, which became a major point of diplomatic tension between the two countries. He attained the height of his power in the later Yeltsin years, when he was deputy secretary of Russia’s security council, a friend of Boris Yeltsin’s influential daughter Tatyana, and a member of the Yeltsin “family” (inner circle).

Berezovsky was said to have been depressed and financially ruined after the loss of a five-year, $4.5 billion court case against one-time business partner and fellow oligarch Roman Abramovich. His assets were recently frozen during a dispute with his ex-girlfriend following their split. He changed his name in 2003, from Boris Berezovsky, to Platon Elenin. In UK, they also presume that this was Putin hand, because they found the billionaire guy dead after an “attempt” to hang himself. The funny thing (as Bono, Africa’s savior would say), is that a prominent personal critic was billionaire George Soros, who compared Russian oligarchs with the American Robber Barons of late 19th century and blamed them for the failure of reforms in Russia. Nice, isn’t it?

Not so nice is the “Marathon Boston Bombing” which the authorities try to connect with their usual foreign “terrorists” and no Islamic extremist group claimed anything yet. See you!
