:08:29. > :08:31.Maria Sharapova is the highest-paid woman in sport, and the reason
:08:32. > :08:34.for that is because she transcends tennis in a way few others do.

:09:44. > :09:51.good news on the front as far as the DNA is concerned. It turns out that
:09:52. > :09:56.this is what is going on. Is that shock to me and all of Manhattan
:09:57. > :09:59.Beach and I'm sure most of Russia. It is upsetting for everyone
:10:00. > :10:05.concerned, including Maria. There are so many questions, broad
:10:06. > :10:10.questions. But I have two state first but if someone tests positive
:10:11. > :10:17.for a drug, they need to have this examined fully and be given a
:10:18. > :10:21.penalty. She is going to receive a penalty, it's just how harsh is this
:10:22. > :10:25.penalty going to be? Will they ruin this lady's Korea for an innocent
:10:26. > :10:30.mistake? -- career. Not everybody thinks this
:10:31. > :10:34.is an innocent mistake, there may be a complete diverging in the amount
:10:35. > :10:40.of sympathy for her. Going back to when you were coaching for her, did
:10:41. > :10:43.you have any indication that she needed to take medication?
:10:44. > :10:48.She needed to take whatever she needed to take to not get the flu.
:10:49. > :10:52.She had a low immunity system and how hearts... She would have to stop
:10:53. > :11:05.every 13 or 14 minutes of practice and get a drink. It wasn't going to
:11:06. > :11:10.work. We tailored her to her coach which made her perfect. She was sent
:11:11. > :11:14.to me to work on strategy. The first thing we determined was she would
:11:15. > :11:18.not be able to win on clay or hard court for many years. We have two
:11:19. > :11:21.strategically go after grass and that will be her first grandson
:11:22. > :11:27.victory because of how frail she was. -- grand slam.
:11:28. > :11:31.How could this happen given Maria Sharapova is such a huge star and
:11:32. > :11:36.high earner? How could it escape the notice of a team around her? That
:11:37. > :11:39.team paid to do their job to notify her that this was a banned
:11:40. > :11:42.substance. That is the major question. I don't
:11:43. > :11:47.understand how the doctor prescribing it to her doesn't tell
:11:48. > :11:50.her it is about to become illegal. How her physical trainer doesn't
:11:51. > :11:56.have that Flash card in his pocket. It should be in his pocket so every
:11:57. > :12:01.they go to dinner is looking on labels, every time he is buying
:12:02. > :12:07.groceries. He is issue -- labels, every time he is buying
:12:08. > :12:12.sushi chef and he should be all over this. There way too many people
:12:13. > :12:23.talking about new drugs out there. The agency should have informed her.
:12:24. > :12:27.I think also the WTA, she is huge for tourism boards and present
:12:28. > :12:31.directors. They should have says she has been forthright about taking
:12:32. > :12:36.this drug, it's not legal any more. Don't take it!
:12:37. > :12:39.What lies ahead for Maria Sharapova in the light of this?
:12:40. > :12:47.She has to get through this appeals process. What is so upsetting for
:12:48. > :12:51.Maria is that she was on the edge already. She had so many injuries
:12:52. > :12:58.and so much stuff going on. Serena is her nemesis. You can see how got
:12:59. > :13:02.wrenched she is she loses to Serena. Starting every match ahead and
:13:03. > :13:07.Serena right by her like a train going through a small town. It is
:13:08. > :13:11.gut-wrenching for her. Every time she comes back home, she needs to
:13:12. > :13:15.take a few days off and it is mental, not physical. She says she
:13:16. > :13:21.has an injury, but it is mental. She is getting beat up mentally. A two
:13:22. > :13:25.year ban would finish her, and everybody needs to know that.
:13:26. > :13:29.Including the anti-doping agency who say they would be sympathetic. I
:13:30. > :13:33.believe that this drug, had she taken it for eight or nine years,
:13:34. > :13:38.should have been grandfathered in. They should have given her a chance
:13:39. > :13:42.to get out of her system. She didn't play a tournament before and she
:13:43. > :13:46.hasn't played a tournament after. There are rules in this wallet that
:13:47. > :13:52.I can read about therapeutic use exemption, which she could backdate.
:13:53. > :13:56.I think that even if she submits this and they refuse it, it still
:13:57. > :14:00.helps in reducing her sentence. I do think she should be punished because
:14:01. > :14:03.she broke the rule, don't get me wrong, but I don't think that Maria
:14:04. > :14:05.Sharapova should be at the guillotine right now.
:14:06. > :14:18.Jeff, thank you for your time. The Governor of the Bank of England,

:18:29. > :18:33.him, but we have now been told that he was a 22-year-old Palestinian man
:18:34. > :18:37.who came from the north of the West Bank. That will raise questions
:18:38. > :18:42.about how come he happened to be in Israel. This attack took place at a
:18:43. > :18:47.time when there was very heavy police presence in the area because
:18:48. > :18:52.the US vice President, Joe Biden, had just arrived in Israel and made

:19:15. > :19:18.security around the country. You also see people taking security into
:19:19. > :19:22.their own hands. There are more Israeli citizens who are armed, for
:19:23. > :19:26.example. What has made it very difficult to police against these
:19:27. > :19:31.attacks is the fact they are often carried out by Palestinians who are
:19:32. > :19:35.identified as what police called Lone Wolves. They carry out these
:19:36. > :19:42.attacks without the backing of Palestinian militant groups. We have
:19:43. > :19:45.had since October more than 180 Palestinians killed, most of whom
