    Eze V. B. C. Onyema III dead? I have no idea what's happening in the video, that white guy twerking and everything, but according to the description it's a celebration of the Eze Onyema's life. Can't find a deathdate either.

    These other links, a twitter post and an article also say he’s dead. The article written on 4 March talks about his funerals so he should be dead at the end of February.

    Quel dommage.  "Tempête dans une tasse de thé" would have sounded much snappier.

    If you like there’s the expression "ce n’est pas ma tasse de thé" (that is not my cup of tea) used  for something you don’t like or know. For example : "La politique ce n’est pas ma tasse de thé" (politics is not my cup of tea)

    That'd be storm in a coffee cup (with milk). What you really want is tempete dans une tasse de the (according to google translate anyway, my french is up to the task of coffee but not tea or storms)

    The correct expression is "tempête dans un verre d’eau" (storm in a glass of water)

    A dessert of croquembouche (that's profiteroles you know)

    First time I ever heard this word ! I looked it up on google, but that’s not profiteroles, it’s a kind of pièce montée (pastry served at weddings)

    Stafford has died 59 years to the day since Alexei Leonov's first spacewalk.

    And 90 years almost day by day after Gagarin’s birth.

    As a note of comparison, the very last two recorded bubonic plague cases in the UK were in Suffolk in 1918, and the last cases of infected rats were in 1914. 

    In France, the last cases recorded were in Corsica in 1945.

    I don't know why you think it would be in question.

    Because like I said it’s very common in France. I happen to know three friends who go by that name. All born the same year, none of them related.

    Plus I didn’t know that well MatchID before.
