(The Christian World) Elaborate Easter is the excellent era for any event including some interesting instances of improving the identified ego or the idealistic idiots inhabiting our earthly environment.
Fortunately, a fine fellow was recently recycled by truly turning his dead DNA from the state of a turnip into that of a terrific Duke. The recent reconstruction of first his fascinating fate and secondly his fair face in deed initiated the righteous recovery of his racked reputation and was rapidly rounded up by the rare resurrection of the royal rascal.
The sad story of his little life was truly told and intelligent

(The World) A bizarre mystifying miracle ominously occurs every Easter: Bunnies bring Easter eggs!
If you blindly believe the iconic images displaying darling bunnies beleaguered by baskets full of eggs, you will surely start to wonder warily why (and how) the alert animals manage moving without breaking all eggs.

Once again, our indefatigable culinary expert Harriet Kettle-Stove kindly consented to add one of her prized recipes to our holiday edition. This time, she ventures into the great unknown, aka the USA.
Happy Easter, dear cooks-to-be,
this Easter will provide you with a treat worth a sin – even if it is most popular in Puritan America. You will love it, whether you serve it as a dessert like in the US or with your afternoon tea as is our custom.
Before doing anything else, please note that our carrot cake will receive a cream-cheese frosting. You can leave this off if you are afraid of calories.
For the cake as such, you need: 225g butter, 225 g brown sugar, 4 eggs, 1 orange, 175 g wholemeal flour, 2 tbl. sp.

Dear Agony Auntie Agatha,
Better late than never usually is our motto and so far this has guided us well through the ups and downs of our history, however, we have the feeling that this question was raised too late for we would like to know what you do if you lose a pope. It has happened once to us before but that was so long ago that we did not believe it could ever happen again. As a matter of fact it did and we were quite at a loss what to do. Now, naturally we are scared it could happen again. Just imagine the upheaval in the Christian world should it ever happen again. What can we do to keep our new pope this time?
Bless you,
Some 100something cardinals currently from Rome

Dear some 100something cardinals currently from Rome,
You could try gluing him - as I guess there will not be a her in the near future – to his ‘sedis’ and therefore avoid a new ‘sedis vacanz’. Only kidding. For the future I would suggest choosing a cardinal who is really keen on being a pope. It should be someone who has always dreamed of being the second among thirds and who is not man enough to declare his retreat from his office. That might not be of help for the current candidate. Why don’t you get a pope look-alike, some sort of twin brother to step in whenever necessary? In doing so you could cover the fact that a pope has been lost again.
Good luck and happy Easter,
Agony Auntie Agatha

Dear Agony Auntie Agatha,
Scusi for presenting quite a similar problem like our friends from our neighbouring state. Only the thing is that we are faced by quite a similar situation. Our head of state also resigned on short notice and besides us knowing what to do in such a case the broad public did not know and offered us a very diverse outcome of the last elections. Despite being voted for there is no one to fill in our ‘sedis’ and consequently it has to remain ‘vacanz’. We have tried a lot in the past, unfortunately, somehow we seem not to come to terms with democracy. What can we possibly do in our situation?
Mille grazie,
Napolitano, president of Italy

Dear Mr President,
If the population of your country is not ready for democracy you have the possibility to a) teach them or b) take it away from them. Regarding the fact that the inhabitants of your country have an experience of practicing (sic.) democracy that exceeds those of most other nations by far you might want to take the latter into consideration. Maybe you proceed like the British – no, I’m not referring to digging up some long lost monarch – but to the fact that the British are only very slowly acquainted with the difficult procedures that are part of a modern democracy. Find a sovereign!
Happy Easter,
Agony Auntie Agatha

(London) Does it look like spring where you live? Rejoice, you are one of the happy few! In Great Britain, the situation has become so bad that the army is helping farmers bring food to their sheep and dig out sheep from under the masses of snow. Since usually it is not allowed to tamper with the weather, newbroom began to think about who was actually allowed to make weather in the wizarding world. And the answer is: Magical Maintenance at the Ministry of Magic in London. We asked for an interview with Adolphus Malacaelum, head of Magical Maintenance. Mike Flatley went to investigate the reasons for the unseasonal cold plaguing all of Europe right now.
MF: Mr Malacaelum, thank you for your time. Since I know you are a busy man, let me come straight to the point: What can you tell our readers about making weather?
AM: Well, Mr Flatley, all I can tell you is that we only make the weather for the Ministry of Magic. We are not allowed to expand our weather charms any farther.

(The fictitious and the real world) Last year it happened so that underneath the parking lot of a shopping centre the remains of a member of the royal family were found. However, what starts like a modern crime story is no more but also no less than an archaeological discovery.
The remains once belonged or actually, probably still do belong to Richard III. The same was killed in 1485 in battle. No one knew or at least blabbed where his body had been buried. As it appears now he was buried in a church.
Due to re-building measurements his corpse was found in Leicester now. As someone else is responsible for the historical details about his life, we will stick to the fictitious life of Richard III for the moment. Most of you will be well aware that there is a play by Shakespeare with the eponymous character Richard III. This has also been turned into the one or the other movie.
However, this play does not portrait Richard the way he really was. Shakespeare – probably under the pressure of censorship or maybe simply out of pure evil – depicted the man as deformed devil both in shape and character. In Shakespeare’s days the outer appearance of a man or woman was a good

 indicator of the character of that respective person. Unfortunately, this view was dropped in the course of the centuries though it would all have saved us from people like Göbbels.
At the very beginning of the play Richard himself explains to the audience that he was not made for love and therefore has to focus on different things in his life. What follows is a story of betrayal, arranged marriage and loads of blood. In the course of the play other possible kings are killed and the question “Now is the winter of our discontent made glorious summer by this son of York?” could be asked more than once.
As you might imagine Richard in Shakespeare turns out to be a really bad guy and at the end of the play is hated by everyone. And now they dig up his corpse or skeleton rather and reconstruct the face that we thought could have never launched a thousand ships. Most surprisingly – regarding the fact that we do possess some portraits of the man – he turns out to look like Prince Charming. A whole nation fell in love with a face that looks at us from its grave. Now is the winter of our discontent made glorious summer by this son of York finally? (MF)
