Carlton Cole - fined for silly jibes
LONDON, April 20, 2011 (AFP) - West Ham and England striker Carlton Cole has been fined and warned following his Twitter outburst against Ghana fans last month.

Cole used the micro-blogging website to make some ill-judged comments about the large numbers of Ghana supporters at Wembley for last month's friendly draw against England.

He tweeted: "Immigration has surrounded the Wembley premises! I knew it was a trap! Hahahaha.

"The only way to get out safely is to wear an England jersey and paint your face w/ the St. George's flag!"

Cole accepted a charge of improper conduct for the remarks and after requesting a personal hearing, he was fined £20,000 ($32,000) on Wednesday and warned as to his future conduct.

The return of the snow brings back some dispirited memories which I thought of sharing considering my personal involvement in it. This I call "Nana's spectacular fall"; it feels like just yesterday when my colleagues and I were in the office just laughing out loud, although it happened a year ago;...it was about this lady wearing high heels on a snowy day, worst part, the black ice...what was she thinking?! That was the question on everyone's mind.
