notre dame and their lowly performance yesterday showed they DO NOT deserve to be in the CFP group.   first, i was born in south bend and am a big a supporter as they come.    

next, the game yesterday encapsulated their plague>   regular let downs in the biggest of games.    the irish got beat badly in the trenches on boht sides.  it wasn;t until the 3rd quarter that the defensive line even realized there was a football game going on.    ND's offensive line was comprised of seniors and the clemson def line mainly freshman.     sad sad sad......

lastly, the worst part was the coaching staff.   no answer for anything at all.     it pains me to say this but the defensive coordinator for clemson won the game for them simply but putting together that plan.

no excuses, please.    ��

specifically to his supporters or generally to democrats, does it trouble you that eric was involved with a chinese spy?    if not, why not?

also, how fair is it that nowhere on yahoo news is there a peep of this terrible situation.

help.    need help in deciding waht piece of furniture to add to this room.    the room is a 'great room' and serves mainly as our TV/living room.     a wall in the room had approx 50-60inches  of 'space'that needs to be filled with something.    the wall itselk is about 15 feet long and has a fireplace on part of it.   the previous piece that occupied the area was a bookshelf but the boss no longer wants.  the TV in the room currenlty has a stand so that is not an option.   i have searched and cannot find anything taht suits our taste?     looking for more of a table option than bookshelf item.    thank you for the suggestions!

what other 'web portal' allows users to make comments?   yes, I'm not computer savvy.

Amercian Airlines was up almost 50% today as were other blue chippers.   someone make some sense of this today.    did investors come in and gather up some relatively cheap but valuable stocks or what?

help. home furnace won;t come on. gas ingnites through 3 burners. burning gas plume is blown into 3 chanbers whcich obviously heats something and then the blower kicks in. PROBLEM: only one burner catches fire. i can get the other 2 to start by blowing on the burner mechnism. is there some sort of sensor that needs to be replaced? repair guy simply said, 'time to spend $4k on a new one. unit is rouhgly 15 years old and worked fine up until now. thanx.

help. when drug/medical device mfgrs assess the shelf life of a product, samples are typically stored at controlled temps (usually 25C & 40C to simulate normal and 'fast' aging) & tested at various points up to and, sometimes, past the shelf life. this ensures the product will meet specs at least up to/including the shelf life. fast or accelerated aging allows for early approval *(usually), provided 25C matches 'closely' and testing (25C units) is completed out to full shelf life.

QUESTION: DOES ANYONE HAVE A REFERENCE STATING THAT A SAMPLE PULL DATE CAN BE DONE SOONER OR LATER THAN THE OFFICIAL DATE? for example, if 25C samples are to be removed on day X, can the units be pulled 3 days early/3 days late? I hoped ICH would dictate something but haven't found anything in their documents>

thank you

help....my son was demoted from first team during his first game yesterday. although the score was 48-0, I still am troubled by how his demotion occurred.

some background: he is on the offensive line and did well in the 3 scrimmages that took place over the last several weeks. yesterday,, however, he just retracted into a shell and 'chickened out' to put it bluntly. their opponents were much better 'athletes' and were bigger, stronger, faster, etc...he was removed from the game at the end of the first quarter and never returned except to complete the minimum number of plays each participant must have. why am I so troubled by this??? he did admit after the game that he was intimidated by the other team because of their appearance and 'swagger'.......although the entire team was humiliated, I feel I haven't done something to prepare him for such a challenge.

1 year old lab/golden retriever mix. yes_ kindest animal I've ever met. she seems to be leaking urine for some reason. while laying underneath the kitchen table tonight during dinner, she left a small puddle of urine. she then left some pretty sizable drops on the floor while walking away. I did take her outside and get her to pee (quite a bit came out) because the door she normnally has to come in and out is shut (our outside air temp is almost 100F).

no obvious problems: no discharge and urine is not almost colorless (a surprise to me as of how hot it is out). my guess is that she drank so much darn water during the afternoon (SHE WQas in fact outside this afternoon) that she is having bladder conteoil problems (first time ever). should we be concnered?? TAHNK YOU.

help. looking for anywhere in the northern california area/Yosemite location that has LAKE FRONT spots to camp at. any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

help. just bought a used gary fisher mtb and the size is only large whereas my last one was XL. first::: big size difference. next, how much tubing from the seat should be into the frame to provide adequate support for the weight and stress that will be placed on the area? i'm 6'00' and weigh 180lbs. although not a competitive rider, I do like to push the limits and go down some pretty steep inclines. i'm not a mechanical engineer to can't gauge the length of tube needed to support my riding level. as it stands, there are roughly 4 inches and everything went well on my initial ride yesterday. although I think I can get used to this new size, I do miss the feeling of my xl frame. sturdy and safe....

thanx.
