Former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak Stroke/Coma – 17 July 2011

The information was released by his lawyer, and confirmed by Egyptian state TV, though doctors said that he had not suffered a stroke and was not in a coma.  As if stomach cancer, heart palpitations, and a possible death sentence looming in his future weren't enough.  Sometimes it is true what they say about "the bigger they are."  It often ends with the tense changing from present to past.
