Peter Thiel on the Global Economy, the State of Our Technology, and Artificial Intelligence
Another surprise from the endlessly surprising US election cycle: billionaire tech investor Peter Thiel has beennamedas one of Donald Trump"s delegates in California.
Thiel co-founded PayPal with Elon Musk, and was the first outside investor in Facebook. Locally, he"s bought stakes in Xero and Vend. Along the way, he"s racked up around $US2.6 billion in wealth, according to Forbes.
With Trump the only Republican candidate contesting the state, the primary vote will be a formality and Thiel is pre-destined to be one of those casting his ballot for Trump when the Californian delegation attends the Republican Convention in June.
A number of traditional big money Republican donors have been wary of Trump, or even said they will vote for Hillary Clinton to keep him out of office. And the tech sector has been chilly. Microsoft, for example, has said it won"t donate money to support the Republican convention this year. Calls by Trump for Apple to hand over its encryption keys to the State, and bring low-skilled, low margin hardware assembly back to the US have many in Silicon Valley up in arms.
So how did Thiel come to join Camp Trump?
The tech investor is a long time Republican supporter, but has previously been described as a libertarian -- a reasonable assumption given he was the largest donor to Ron Paul"s campaign in 2012.
According to the Guardian, Thiel is "very hawkish on immigration," and has previously donated $US1 million to Numbers USA, a group that lobbies for reduced intake.
It"s been noted that there"s some irony in Trump lobbying for restrictions, given he is the son of a German immigrant (and his construction company"s enthusiasm for hiring undocumentedimmigrants, according to New York Times reports).
Thiel was born in West Germany, making him the latest in a long list of immigrant"s who have contributed to US success in the tech industry that includes Andy Grove (Intel), Elon Musk (PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX) and Sergey Brin (Google) and many others. And that"s not to mention the children of immigrants such as the SyrianAbdul Jandali, who foisted the layout Steve Jobs on the Californian education system. Perhaps a wall could be built around Silicon Valley to keep them out.

La "otra mujer" de Ozzy Osbourne, Michelle Pugh, luciendo su mejor rostro
Michelle Pugh is the name of the woman rumored to have had an affair with Ozzy Osbourne, but theres more than one Michelle Pugh in the world. A 42-year-old nail technician from Tacoma, Washington, named Michelle Pugh has been repeatedly harassed by haters, who blame her for the demise of Ozzys 33-year marriage to Sharon Osbourne. In an interview with Us Weekly, Michelle Pugh #2 said the online attacks against her have been hard to take.
It has been really surreal, the other Michelle Pugh said. I wasnt offended by the messages, because I knew they werent for me, but it was quite a hassle for a few days there. The messages were mostly name calling; things you would expect from fans of a female celebrity they love who was wronged! I just deleted them as they came in, I figured it would just be a few, but they kept coming!

Us Weekly (@usweekly) May 20, 2016
In fact, Michelle Pugh told TMZ she received hundreds of messages with some of the haters calling her names like w***e and home wrecker. Pugh had to block and delete the harassers, and it has hurt her online presence as she tries to build her nail tech business.
The Michelle Pugh involved in the Osbourne scandal has worked as a hair colorist at the high-end Meche Salon in Beverly Hills for a decade. Sharon Osbourne and her daughters are longtime Meche clients who angrily called the salon after The Talk co-host read romantic emails between her husband and Pugh. Pugh was reportedly fired from the salon, after 10 years of employment, in the aftermath of the alleged affair. But while the California Michelle Pughs association with Ozzy ended her Meche career, the Washington Michelle Pugh is dealing with her own career drama.
The biggest inconvenience has been the hijacking of Internet search results away from the online education platform I am building for nail artists called the University of Nails, Pugh 2 told Us. It will take me months to rebuild the search engine optimization that this has thrown askew. Ill have to add my prior name back in for probably another year now!

The two Michelle Pughs have never spoken, and the nail tech Michelle says she has had no contact with the Osbournes. It sounds like she just wants her name back!
As for the Michelle Pugh at the center of the Ozzy scandal, she initially called out of work when news of the celeb split first broke. Pughs Meche boss revealed that the stylist called into the salon to say she had a personal emergency to deal with, but TMZ spotted Pugh reporting back to work a few days later. According to Us, at some point, the salon decided to part ways with their top colorist, who worked for 10 years at the celebrity hotspot. Pughs photo and bio still remain on the Meche website.

Meanwhile, Page Six reported that Ozzy Osbourne has ended his six-month affair with Michelle Pugh because Sharon is his whole life and he cant manage without her. Unfortunately, the Black Sabbath frontman may have to find a way to live without her, because Sharon seems to have had enough and is reportedly considering filing for divorce.
Michelle Pugh #2 has done more talking than the actual Michelle Pugh at the center of the scandal. Maybe at some point, shell open up to tell her side of the story, but for now, the real Michelle Pugh is lying low.
Take a look at the video below for more on Michelle Pugh.

Most peer-evaluated studies suggest it was somewhere between Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and the second Pirates movie. Whatever the case, People Magazines two-time sexiest man alive has been wielding a weird toolbox of wigs, prosthetics and sundry other items for more than a decade now.
