Sanctions For Continued Snub
Alex Ferguson
Manchester United manager, Alex Ferguson, is facing sanctions if he continues to boycott the BBC, for doing a terrible piece on his son, who was later cleared of wrongdoing. I don't know why certain people at the BBC like to get so personal and defamatory with others, spooling in their family members into abuses of the Queen's airwaves.
Exactly who's running the BBC that they have fallen afoul of so many people. It is supposed to be a government trust, paid for by Britons' tax dollars, yet certain social and political activists seek employment there to incite trouble and their own agenda, that sometimes breaks the law.

Man U faces sanctions for Ferguson's BBC boycott
LONDON — Manchester United will be punished by the English Premier League if manager Alex Ferguson keeps boycotting the British Broadcasting Corporation in the upcoming season.
Ferguson — the most successful manager in British soccer history — has refused to speak to the BBC for six years since an investigation was aired questioning the business dealings of his son Jason, who was then working as a soccer agent. He was not found guilty of wrongdoing.
The Premier League is introducing the new rule, which will take effect at the start of the season in August. It will force the 68-year-old Ferguson to speak to the BBC, which pays to show highlights of matches on its popular evening Match of the Day program, and BBC Radio Five Live, which airs live commentaries...
The key to rebuilding Haiti will be in logistics. The building code in the Caribbean has to be strict, as the climate is often subject to powerful hurricanes and sometimes earthquakes.
Prefab building can be quick, but may be dangerous, as most of the materials used for such structures are typically wood and softer fibers. Concrete, steel and rebar should be the order of the day.
Structural engineers should also be consulted, to create structures with room for swaying, in the event of a future quake. Seismology surveys need to be done, to avoid rebuilding on dangerous fault lines.
A centralized, organizational committee should be formed and issues of import duty, tax and any other VAT mandates (materials) will have to be thoroughly mulled over, lest it make the rebuilding process more tedious and lengthy than necessary. Haiti's damaged areas can be rebuilt and in good time, but a very good plan needs to be on the table.
Thus far, over a billion has been raised, but more is needed.
Eve
Rapper Eve, real name Eve Jeffers, 31, who is currently embroiled in a money laundering scandal that embarrassingly made its way into the Senate, reportedly saw the U.S. government freeze her assets today. It appears the government is coming after her, though she denies it. They are stating she owes the I.R.S. $375,000 in taxes and they want their money.
They usually give people a chance to repay their tax debts, on a payment plan, rather than resorting to freezing assets first, which leads the Judiciary Report to believe, if reports are true in this regard, the U.S. government is angry she committed crimes that are felonies, in aiding an African president's son,
Eve made money as a rapper and actress, with 5 million CDs sold, roles in several motion pictures and her own self-titled show that aired for 3 years. It's a shame she succumbed to the temptation of easy money, via money laundering, as she certainly wasn't poor. Not that it would excuse it.
