Get well soon Cheryl and why Brazil will be a success

Wishing Cheryl the quickest of recoveries
It's not very nice to see anyone in poor condition. Although Cheryl Cole, I mean Tweedy is not the most popular celebrity around, I think we should support her through her difficult times.
I remember when Kylie Minogue was first diagnosed with breast cancer. It was terrifying for the world to hear this catastrophic news and support was flooding through her fan base. With Cheryl, however it maybe different. Miss. Minogue is portrayed as a generous female and a talented individual who is now in her fourth decade in the TV industry.
However, Ms. Tweedy has made a name for herself in the girl group Girls Aloud and being a judge in the X-Factor. Also, being the centre of attention when she was on the verge of break up with Chelsea left-back, Ashley Cole. Yes, I was slightly annoyed by the amount of publicity she was given regarding this separation but. Who wasn't? But in the end of the day, we need to give her support and less recognition during her difficult times.
She does need rest and in order to do that, the likes of Heat and Now magazines have to leave her alone.

Kelsey's decision disappoints me but what did I expect?
This is the news that Kelsey Grammer is to have his show based on right-wing thoughts. He has been known to have been in support of the Republican party of the United States and he's to follow the footsteps of the likes of David Letterman to have his own talk show on TV.
He's had his own talkshow - as a radio psychiatrist in the US sit-com, Frasier. I am a huge fan of this show and Dr. Frasier Crane is an influential character when he's talking to the other characters in his radio show.
This will probably mean that this new show will be a success. It will possibly be funny, witty and intelligent. So what's the problem?
I don't consider myself as a right-wing supporter. That's a start. Now politics is a massive influence when it comes to any decision. I'm a big fan of Kelsey Grammer. He is funny, yes. He is witty, yes. He is a fantastic actor, of course he is. But my fear is that he will be controversial about the current government and foreign policies, it will put off fans like me. I hope it's a fear and I hope that the show is a success. We'll just have to wait and see.

Brazil 2014 will be more successful than London 2012
This headline may sound harsh as it's a very long time until both competitions start. Brazil, the next host nation of the World Cup has unveiled the new logo for the tournament.
If you look at the logo, I'd be surprised if you liked it as much as I did. It looks brilliant and already Brazil 2014 will be a success whoever. This reminds me when London first unveiled their logo for the next Olympic games. It's a privilidge for the UK to be hosting such a prestigious event. My first impression for this logo was "WHOA! What on Earth is this?!". It looks hidious and it seems as if I can't get myself into liking it.
This however doesn't mean that London 2012 won't become a success but it would attract more people who aren't interested in sport if they'd changed it to something bearable. The Olympics already is costing a fortune and the new stadiums are delayed. These games have to improve before it becomes a disaster. We have a lot to look up to after a brilliant Olympic games in Beijing so it's time to change.

Splitting Britain to its eventual death

Londoner Mo Farah and Sheffield-born Jessica Ennis-Hill set to see their cities drift away from Westminster bubble (Image: Daily Mail) I don't know about you, but I'm loving this year's Olympics. The daunting talk about Brazil's corrupt politics, high levels of extreme poverty and the doping scandal are secondary topics for discussion while the spectacular sporting action and country's tourism boost are dominating headlines. But for me, I've been particularly impressed by UK's togetherness in pride for Team GB's overwhelming success so far. The country's dominance in rowing and cycling is something worth celebrating and hopefully they can provide a new wave of inspiration for many that London 2012 sadly couldn't. With Team GB continuing to shine in Rio de Janeiro, it's a big shame that back at home, political leaders are going out of their way in breaking up the country. In this rate, come Tokyo 2020 Olympics or whoever hosts the 2

Sepp Blatter mustn't resign, yet

Fifa President has to clean-up his mess before deciding to leave Living in Blatter-land World football governing body, Fifa's President Sepp Blatter has been under the spotlight for the second consecutive week and again for all the wrong reasons. Last week he banned British isle national sides from wearing a poppy branding the flower "political" but this time around, on countless interviews with major broadcasting companies yesterday, he controversially said that "there is no racism in football" and if racism occurred in a match, then players involved must handshake at the end of the game. This has sparked anger across the world of football including hierarchies of the English Professional Football Association (PFA), football players such as Manchester United's Rio Ferdinand and pundits alike. After hearing those comments by Blatter, people such as myself would bang our heads on brick walls. Today, the 75-year-old went to clarify his previous afterno

Settling the transgender debate like grown-ups

Flag that represents the trans community (Image: The Age) The 'transgender debate' has been hard to escape in recent years. It's impacting many areas of our lives, including in schools , work and sport . Sadly, the media narrative of these stories has made it impossible to rationally discuss how to best support people who have decided to make this life-changing decision, or how to assure their 'opponents' that they aren't being cast aside, or their rights have been taken from them. I'll try and analyse this as level-headed as possible and conclude what we (UK as a whole) should be doing, as a way of being a world leader on what is seen as a divisive matter, where it ought not to be. The current narrative is arguably led by two very different sides - one, the so-called 'pro-trans' groups, who combatively argue that people who want to transition should have easy access to basically everything; from legally changing their gender, to requiring advanced
