POPSCoffee Cup Analogy Now, if Life is coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, but the quality of Life doesn’t change. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee in it.” So please, don’t let the cups drive you…enjoy the coffee instead. Being happy does not mean everything is perfect. It means you have decided to see beyond the imperfection.

POPSFIFA: Playoff Row Rumbles On
i tend to keep my sports preferences to myself but there's something about the Ireland-France World cup qualifier that is deeply offensive, offensive on levels deeper than just sports. I like the USA way of handling such decisions. FIFA has an attitude I associate with decadent European aristocracy, basically saying: "Too bad. Tough luck. We have made our decision (i.e. wrong decision) and there is nothing you can do about it." In the USA, one of our positive traits is to do something about clear injustice or wrong; at least try: We never had kings; never will. Re: T. Henry -- maybe FIFA should change the name of the game to "Handfootball." That way, if France wins the World Cup, at least it will be clear what game they are playing. The solution, obviously, would be to have video replay reviews -- other ideas such as an extra ref behind the goal and/or the refs talking decisions over might help. But as it stands now, the World Cup is tainted by this admitted cheating

POPSZenyatta Simply Perfect in Classic and she did so in front of a raucous crowd of 58,825 on Saturday at Santa Anita Park. And she did it in spectacular fashion in her first career start against males, taking her typical position at the back of the field under Racing Hall of Fame jockey Mike Smith and charging down the stretch with authority"her stride lengthening and becoming more powerful with every kick"to inhale the leaders and hit the finish line first, just as she did in each one of the previous 13 starts of her brilliant career. “There are tears coming to my eyes,” said trainer John Shirreffs, who won the Breeders’ Cup Ladies' Classic (G1) last year with Zenyatta and this year’s Ladies' Classic on Friday with Life Is Sweet, becoming the first trainer to achieve the rare double in the same season. “I can’t believe it. “She is a great, great filly. She is all heart. The way the crowd took to her was just amazing. They cheered for her; they clapped for her; they love her.
