Speronis had been living in an off-grid home for many years without
incident, until she was interviewed by a local FOX affiliate in
November of 2013. Shortly thereafter, the city of Cape Coral tagged a
“notice to vacate” on her property, due to multiple code
violations, all of which stem from the fact that her home isn’t
connected to water, sewage, or the electrical grid. The city has
tried to argue that she is in violation of the International Property
Maintenance Code for relying on rainwater and solar panels, instead
of utilities.

The
resignation of Sepp Blatter, FIFA’s President, days after his
re-election at FIFA’s conference, has caused a sensation.
The
scandal at FIFA is a consequence of the wave of arrests on corruption
charges of various FIFA officials in Switzerland in the days
immediately before the conference.

FIFA official Chuck Blazer has admitted to taking bribes in
connection with the French and South African World Cups.
The President of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko told the the 8th Kiev Forum on Security Issues that Ukraine will not engage in dialogue with representatives of the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk republics (the “DPR” and the “LPR”, respectively). He stated, inter alia:
“We
must ensure fair elections. And we will conduct dialogue with the
Donbass, but with a different Donbass, a Ukrainian one.”
The
same position, but in even harsher terms, was expressed at the Forum
by the Prime-Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk. He is prepared to talk to
the representatives of the Republics “only once they are behind
bars.” “By the way, we have enough empty cells,” he added.
According
to Yatsenyuk, his government will never deal with the current
representatives of the Donbass. “We will communicate only with
legitimate representatives of this region, and we want to conduct
legitimate elections there,” said the Prime-Minister.
