BP to set aside $20 billion to help oil spill victims!


After long negotiations between the White House and BP officials, President Barack Obama announced Wednesday that the oil company will create a fund of $ 20 billion to help fishermen and businesses around the gulf. While the oil spill will continue for the next months unexplainable by anybody, President Obama gave some hopes to the fishermen worried about meeting their ends. He was applauded in the middle of the conference. During an interview after the meeting BP chairman, Carl-Henric Svanberg, apparently said that the company felts sorry about the small people. This comment gave birth to a protest by the so "considered" small people, claiming that Mr.Svanberg is not different from them. This comment gets me mad too. Instead of apologizing for what its happening, even though an apologize is not enough, he makes shameless comments assigning people as small because maybe they don't have his money and power. Good news came from BP C.E.O, Tony Awards, as he firmly said that the company apologizes to everybody and is doing the maximum in cleaning this oil spill. What will happen? We will see. In Albania we say that "You cant clean the sh*t with p*ss" meaning that once the damage is done there is no turning back. This natural catastrophe was not neccessary and its a shame that it happened. One of the many signs for the end of the world?! I dont know but it seems like one...

Off the market!




Guys, I am sorry to inform you that you missed your chance with Megan Fox. The beauty queen is officially "off the market" as her long time boyfriend, Brian Austin Green, proposed her in a hotel in Hawaii and she happily said YES. Born in Tennessee 24 years ago, the actress is known for her roles in movies like Transformer 1/2, Jennifer's Body and the upcoming Jonah Lex. Her acting might not be at high levels but her face and body reaches the stars as she was named two years in a row The Most Beautiful Women in America by an official poll conducted by the prestigious website Askmen.com . This news will break a lot of hearts, including mine, so nothing is left but wish her a happy after-marriage life.

Blog # 1-- --Kraft Food to take over Cadbury-- --


There are big negotiations going on now a day to the effort that Kraft is making in attempt to take over Cadbury PLC. Below is the main information I found about this two corporations:

Cadbury is a British confectionery and beverage company with its headquarters in London United Kingdom and is the world's largest confectionery manufacturer.The firm was formerly known as "Cadbury Schweppes plc" before emerging in May 2008, separating its global confectionery business from its US beverage unit, which has been renamed Dr.Pepper Snapple Group. The company is listed on the London Stock Exchange.

Kraft Foods, Inc. is the largest food and beverage company headquartered in the United States and the second largest in the world (after Nestle).Kraft is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois. Their European headquarters are just outside Switzerland. Kraft Foods markets many popular brands in more than 155 countries.Kraft Foods became a component of the Dow Jones on September 22, 2008, replacing AIG


Knowing the position and the power of Kraft I predict that sooner or later Kraft is going to take over Cadbury. This whole movement will cost supposedly $16.5 billion. I cant judge if this is a good and worth $16.5 billion move but considering the fact that Kraft is the second largest company in the world I would guess that this is an intelligent and strategic move. We are going to see what will happen in the future but my predictions for this cause are positive.
