Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in sæcula sæculorum?

This saga is getting more than a little farcical, you really could not make this up... Martin Bailey, 'Zahi Hawass remains antiquities minister—for now', The Art Newspaper 19 Jul 2011. "Egyptian antiquities boss Zahi Hawass still remains the minister, despite reports that he has been sacked. On 19 July he told The Art Newspaper that prime minister Esssam Sharaf has asked him to continue to go to work. However, Hawass’s future is now very uncertain. Prime Minister Sharaf has not yet finalised his new cabinet".

The same can be found here.

Hawass was appointed minister by President Hosni Mubarak on 31 January. He resigned on 5 March. Alaa El Din Shaheen was named as Hawass’s successor, although the appointment was never confirmed. Hawass was reappointed minister on 30 March. The Art Newspaper article seems to be suggesting that he was not actually formally dismissed on Sunday.
