For a time, I thought my faith
It must be hiding…
Searching through the sky,
Hoping to find the way, a way 
To get me through the day

Wonder where I belong, 
Is this where I should stay?

(Chorus)
You lift me up when I am falling
You're my friend, when I was calling
Now I’m on top of the world,
On top of the whole wide world

Yeah, you’ve always been believing
Give my life a whole new meaning
Now I’m on top of the world
On top of the whole wide world

It’s a strength in me,
It seems I had forgotten…
Now I, realize today,
I’m starting to dream again, again
Was a matter of when?

I guess we all lose our way now and then

You lift me up when I am falling
You're my friend, when I was calling
Now I’m on top of the world,
On top of the whole wide world

Yeah, you’ve always been believing
Give my life a whole new meaning
Now I’m on top of the world
On top of the whole wide world

Uau, uau, uau
Uau, uau, uau

You lift me up…
When I was falling
You lift me up…
When I was falling

You lift me up when I am falling
Your're my friend, when I was calling
Now I’m top of the world
On top of the whole wide world

Yeah, you’ve always been believing
Give my life a whole new meaning
Now I’m on top of the world
On top of the whole wide world

Yeah, you’ve always been believing
Give my life a whole new meaning
Now I’m on top of the world
On top of the whole wide world

Always been believing
Give my life a whole new meaning
Now I'm on top of the world
On top of the whole wide world

Yeah… e... yeah…

On top of the whole wide world

Yeah, you’ve always been believing
Give my life a whole new meaning
Now I’m on top of the world
On top of the whole wide world

I know that Rafael Nadal does not own any shirts with sleeves, Roger Federer is possibly on the tail end of one of the most dominating few-year stretches in sports history (but is still no Tiger Woods... please), the media seems obsessed with finding the next Ana Kournikova but with talent (first we had Sharapova, now we have Ivanovic), Venus and Serena could both kick my ass, and finally, Andy Roddick is a big, fat disappointment that puts shame to the recent great names in American tennis like Sampras, Agassi, and Michael Chang (okay, I don't really know if Chang was that great or not, but one of my fondest memories of watching tennis growing up was Michael Chang sliding back and forth across a clay court.... awesome). And someone that is such a big disappointment has no right to be calling out players that are clearly better and more talented.

Novak Djokovic apparently gets hurt a lot. This was not one of the few things in tennis that I knew. All I knew is that he is an excellent hard court player and for the time being, is in fact the last male on earth to win a grand slam event on said hard courts. But after his match on Tuesday, in which Djokovic routinely took time to consult a trainer and/or rest any of several injuries, Andy Roddick had some interesting things to say about his upcoming opponent:

On Tuesday night, after he advanced to the quarterfinals here at the U.S. Open, Roddick was asked about the physical condition of his opponent, Novak Djokovic. A reporter was explaining that the Serbian player had complained of an injured right ankle when Roddick cut him off, sparking this charming exchange:

Roddick: Isn't it both of them? And a back and a hip?

Reporter: And when he said there are too many to count …

Roddick: And a cramp.

Reporter: Do you get a sense right now that he is …

Roddick: Bird flu.

Reporter: A lot of things. Beijing hangover.

Roddick: Yeah.

Reporter: He's got a pretty long list of illness.

Roddick: Anthrax. SARS. Common cough and cold.

--Greg Garber, ESPN.com

Now, I'm all for athletes or coaches getting sarcastic or brash with the media on many of the silly questions they are routinely asked. If a journalist is going to beat a dead horse or be disrespectful with questions, I don't expect the athlete to put a smile on and answer politely. But when a legitimate question is asked, for the most part I think a legitimate answer should be given. Roddick instead thought it wise to call out Djokovic as some kind of injury riddled drama queen who has been afflicted by not only a bad back and hip, but apparently some biological weapons to boot. Nice one, Andy.

Here's my other problem. If you're going to look like an ass, fine, that's your call. Mission accomplished. But one thing you should never, ever do, is look like an ass while calling out an opponent. This truth only becomes more relevant when the opponent is clearly better than you. This is why Stephen Ames will probably never publicly question Tiger Woods again, why Anthony Smith (I had to look that name up, that's how irrelevant he is) will probably not be mentioning Tom Brady and the Patriots anytime soon, and why, after tonight, Andy Roddick will probably be smart to not call out Novak Djokovic again.

Roddick was on top of the world for three months during late 2003, early 2004. He was the world's #1 ranked player, coming off his first (and still only) grand slam title at the 2003 U.S. Open, dating Mandy Moore, and hitting serves faster than Usain Bolt. Then in March of 2004, shortly after Federer placed his death grip around the #1 ranking, Mandy Moore saw what was ahead and called the relationship quits (I believe that Roddick ended it as much as I believe Romo is happy that he left Carrie Underwood for Jessica Simpson). Roddick has been in a downward spiral ever since, routinely showing some glimpses by winning meaningless tournaments, and getting "upset" early in the grand slams. Yet he thought it was a good idea to call out a player that is five years younger and five times better. And who, go figure as I finish writing this, is on his way to dismissing Andy Roddick from the U.S. Open as quickly as He Hate Me and I plan on dismissing each and every fantasy football opponent with our magical line up. So good job Andy, all talk and no walk... right in line with the last several years for you, bud.

MACHIAJ:

Buze

  • Rosii ca focul: La fel ca sprancenele groase, tenul impecabil si buclele cu volum, nici rujul rosu nu a iesit din tendinte. Poate fi oricand o varianta eleganta pentru seara - Charlize Theron stie cel mai bine. Poarta-l fara teama la petrecere, dar evita-l in zori;
  • Buze "sarutabile": Cu alte cuvinte, exfoliaza-ti buzele. Aplica putin demachiant de ochi pe o discheta de vata si freaca usor buzele pentru a indeparta pielea moarta.
  • "Nude Pout": Pentru o aparitie discreta si seducatoare, foloseste un ruj nude sau roz cu o textura mata.

Ochi

  • Sprancene aproape stufoase: Stilistii mentin "embargoul" asupra spancenelor subtiri si arcuite, iar trendsetterii propun "power brow". Poarta sprancenele cat mai naturale, dar cu forma atent corectata.
  • Priviri scantaietoare: Pentru machiajul de seara, imbraca-ti pleoapele in culori autumnale si aplica un strop de fard alb-sidef in coltul extern al ochilor. Vei arata ca pe podium!
  • Pleoape irizate: Asorteaza la rochia de seara un fard pentru pleoape in culori calde: ametist, roz si gri - efectul optic e uni si magnific.

Ten

  • Pont de la actrita Mandy Moore: inlocuieste fardul de obraz cu o crema sidefata pe care o aplici in doua straturi. Efectul de seductie este garantat!
  • Blush personalizat: Iti doresti un ten luminos? Aplica peste fondul de ten un blush metalic-sidefat. Alege nuante rozalii daca ai tenul palid si tonuri de bronz-auriu, daca ai pielea mai inchisa.
  • Pometi parguiti: Blush-ul cu o usoara tenta de portocaliu-aramiu este o metoda simpla de a-ti pune pometii in valoare - starurile poarta foarte des aceasta nuanta la evenimente.

COAFURA:

Impletituri dibace

  • Andy Ufflels, hair stylist P&G, declara: "Utilizarea suvitelor impletite si rasucite ofera oportunitatea de a te schimba si de a inventa in fiecare zi un nou look." Profita de faptul ca impletiturile de par sunt in mare voga si joaca-te de-a... mainile maiestre!

Plete dezlantuite

  • Orice coafura gandita cu volum trebuie sa aiba neaparat muuult volum. Asa ca foloseste bigudiuri mari, preferabil calde, si aplica un strop de fixativ la final.

Bucle de basm

  • Este la mare cautare parul lung si lins, dar chiar si el are nevoie de volum. Cel putin la petreceri, evita sa il porti prea lipit de cap.

Se poarta bretonul

  • Dar cand nu s-a purtat?! Bretonul n-a parasit niciodata podiumurile de moda si nici moda strazii. Asadar, ai deplina libertate la breton - cu conditia sa-l adaptezi la forma fetei tale.

Intr-o parte...

  • Moda o ia un pic… lateral. Nu, nu aluneca spre decadenta, ci "deseneaza" cararea parului nu numai pe mijlocul capului, ci usor intr-o parte.

MANICHIURA / PEDICHIURA:

Unghii de noapte

  • Manichiura de culoare inchisa este perfecta pentru petrecere, cu o singura conditie: sa fie impecabila! Oja sarita de pe unghii este semn de neglijenta si de neingrijire a mainilor. Pentru toamna 2008, se poarta maro, mov inchis, burgund, chiar negru si rosul care nu se demodeaza niciodata.

Oja cu licurici

  • Cand te pregatesti de petrecere, aplica peste oja un lac transparent care contine glitter - vei atrage lumina si privirile celor din jur. Dar nu uita sa scapi de glitter cand ajungi la birou; sclipiciul nu se asorteaza cu atmosfera de lucru.

Pedichiura electrizanta

  • Pentru unghiile de la picioare, alege culori tari, metalice, asortate la sandale cu barete subtiri.
