Teen solves centuries-old math problem


LONDON, Nov. 13 (UPI) -- British television personality Sharon Osbourne has apologized via Twitter for saying singer Susan Boyle is a lovely lady who had been hit by the ugly stick.
Boyle was a finalist on "Britain's Got Talent," whose heartwarming rendition of "I Dreamed a Dream" became an Internet sensation last spring.
Osbourne joked about the 47-year-old singer's dowdy appearance this month in an interview on Sirius XM Radio, then apologized for her remarks in a Twitter posting, the BBC said.
"Susan Boyle is a lovely gracious woman and I took advantage of that by poking fun at her," Osbourne said.
"I would never want to be responsible for hurting Susan and I must apologize for getting a cheap laugh at her expense."
