Soccer Resists Instant Replay Despite Criticism – "The instant replay is already a reality for soccer fans watching games at home, making poor calls on the field all the more obvious. FIFA still has time to add the instant replay to its rules before the World Cup next summer, when scrutiny of referee decisions promises to be even stronger." fuck off, blatter. you are old and stupid.

Controversial plans for minaret ban and outlawing arms exports face voters' verdict – "To the great surprise of pollsters and the regret of the government, the Swiss on Sunday said yes to a ban on the construction of minarets." for the record, i feel ashamed to be swiss today. sorry world!!!
