POPSMark Morford: The gang rape and 30 Republican senators who don't give a damn about battered women
More: Turns out, when faced with such vileness, all filters fail. All balance is thrown off. You thought you had some sort of way to process and attain perspective? You are proven wrong. So perhaps all we can do is ponder how pathetic and sad these various senator's lives must be, how these bitter old men will now go home at night and announce around the dinner table that, yes, today they worked very hard to help improve the welfare of the nation by essentially enabling rape and sexual abuse, tried their darndest to prevent women who've been viciously attacked from having much legal recourse. And lo, Satan will chuckle happily. Then maybe these senators will try and hug their wives, or their daughters. And maybe, if there's any justice in the universe, their wives and daughters will slap them as hard as humanly possible, lock them in a shipping container, and never let them touch them again.

POPSLink Party: Miley Cyrus Is a Bad Tipper • Since we’ve all had a chance to say good-bye to Miley Cyrus‘ Twitter, now it’s time to get back to good ol’ gossip. Like this gem: She went to Outback Steakhouse and didn’t tip on her $70 bill. According to her rep, “She didn’t know she was supposed to tip unless she was eating inside.” Too bad there isn’t some microblogging site or something where she can defend herself.

POPSHero Saves 4 Year-Old's Life One Day and "Pops The Question" on TV the Next Day
The 33-year-old, known to friends as Billy, flashed back to that smoke-filled terror when he heard the screams Wednesday night from a fourth-floor apartment. Cretan was working with his then-girlfriend, Desiree Guzman, inside their electronics business near the burning building. She watched as he grabbed a ladder and scrambled onto the fire escape. Minutes later, Cretan was lugging the semi-conscious youth down to waiting rescue workers. "He saved my boy's life," said Pharbodial Ramcharran, 40, after his son's rescue. "Nothing else matters. My boy looked pretty good this morning. He hugged and kissed me." During his television appearance, Cretan segued from an interview to an engagement. "You know that I'm a handful already, we both know that," Cretan told 24-year-old Desiree. "I promise you one thing, there's never going to be a dull moment. "So therefore will you marry me anyway?" His girlfriend, after agreeing, shared a kiss and a long hug with her new

POPSThe Things We Remember Outstanding. Familiarity is a double-edged sword: It’s comfortable, but it can also be boring. Novel experiences combat the dull edge of routine and make for enduring, positive memories... Make a habit of really listening to each other’s stories... Giving over your full attention conveys love and respect and strengthens family bonds. Recency. We also tend to remember events and experiences that happened most recently, so it’s wise to bring special attention to the last interactions we have with family each day. Close the day with your family just as you started it: with loving words and sweet sentiments. Personal Association. We all want to be appreciated for our uniqueness. Recognizing and celebrating each family member’s individuality fosters feelings of connection and intimacy. With mindfulness and a willingness to shift our behaviors to play to the power of memory, we can create our own rituals to bring more intimacy to our closest relationships.

POPSFederal court: Yes, SF can ban sale of tobacco in drugstores
More: "The problem with your argument is that any time the government bans the sale of anything, it becomes a First Amendment issue," Kozinski told Collins. The ordinance, the first of its kind in the nation, prohibits sales of cigarettes and other tobacco products at San Francisco's nearly 60 drugstores. It exempts supermarkets and big-box retail stores that also have pharmacies, the basis of a separate suit by Walgreens claiming unconstitutional discrimination. A San Francisco Superior Court judge denied Walgreens' request for an injunction to keep the ban from taking effect. A state appellate court is preparing to hear the company's appeal. Philip Morris also sued unsuccessfully to halt the ordinance. U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken of Oakland ruled in December that San Francisco was free to prohibit conduct, such as tobacco sales, and was not trying to regulate speech. The appeals court did not say when it would rule on Philip Morris' appeal of Wilken's decisio
