Welcome to TC! I am sure that we'll understand each other just fine! Not all the members are native English speakers, so we all help each other along when there is a communication error.

Welcome to TC! Best option for getting games is to get Fox Soccer Network but even then they don't have all the games or put the best ones on FSNplus. Gol is usually pretty good if you can understand spanish but when in a pinch it does the job. The lads on here usually have streams posted for the games so that helps when it isn't shown in the US. I am currently in Asia so time is my worst enemy for seeing games since most come on at midnight or later here

Eno, Welcome! I see you live in Dallas! One of my favorite towns in the US. Our good friends live in Arlington and we visit them as often as we can. And it was where I went to my first Chelsea game. Zolayes… thank you

Ah, well, we all have to grow up eventually. Your interests, needs, opinions and priorities change as you get older. Hopefully for the better but it is sometimes disconcerting when you realize that it has occurred without you realizing it.

Amels, are you alright? this doesn't sound good sweetie.

Nervous, my daughter has tryouts on Sunday for the FOBiSSEA U-13 team for her school if she makes it she will go to Brunei to compete in a tournament in swimming, athletics, football, and basketball.

I keep hoping someone will pinch me and I'll wake up. Upon waking up JT will be healthy and have a spotless reputation, Roman will not be a petulant child with his dealings with the team), RDM will still be in charge, and Torres will be on his way to some shit team in some small town in the middle of no where where he will continue to absolutely nothing. But no I just keep hearing things that want to make me cry and seeing pictures of the fat spanish waiter in our kit… and blue is not his colour! …. Nope, not happy at all. SIGH but I will grit my teeth and hope at the end of the season we get some one who is better and hasn't made so many nasty comments about the club and the fans.

new jeans and khakis for my son… who has gotten so tall none of his pants from last spring fit this winter

You're welcome, sweetie!

ChE labs aren't like Chem labs, they are more about the process and optimization. With the exception of separations (filtration and distillation) of liquids I loved it… optimization of a distillation column is the pits. I like following the mass flow and the energy flow of a process. I always found the electrical stuff just didn't interest me! LOL It is definitely about knowing your interests and likes/dislikes. My only advice is don't over specialize. You can get a great job and be more flexible if you stick to a more broad major. I have a friend that recently graduated with a degree in Aerospace Engineer from Georgia tech and because the space program in the US has been defunded he couldn't get a job. His degree is too specialized for him to branch out into other industries. A ChE, EE, EECE, or ME can work in almost any industry and if you have a minor in business then you will be able to advance even farther. Just a little friendly advice from some one who has been there and has chosen to get out of the rat race. I loved being a project engineer but we moved so much with my husband's job and then we had kids it was hard to get beyond a position that required shift work. To me it was more important to be with my children, so I chose to stay home and when they went to school, I chose education because if I found teaching others to love science was much more satisfying than working in industry. I am also blessed with a supportive husband who can support me well enough I can work for the pittance that teachers make in the US.

I'm sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to you and your friend, it is never easy to lose a family member and when it is sudden it is even harder. Take care and please talk to someone if you struggle with the sadness or it seems to interfere with your life. ((HUGS))

Settle for Chemical engineering?? HUH??? let me see be an computer engineer and sitting behind a desk all day or be a chemical engineer and know the process, optimize it, be involved in research and development… no contest in my book but then again I am a chemical engineer and found all that electrical and computer crap mind numbing not to mention butt numbing LOL

I hope they are made of sterner stuff then those marbles! LOL

I am currently a supply teacher at an International school, but in the US I was a Chemistry teacher, before that I was a project engineer, an HIV Lab tech, worked on an FAA study, as a life guard, as a shop girl and in a fast-food restaurant. Teaching is where my heart is.

Shanghai finished 9th in the league and changed managers 3 times the final time was to have Anelka as a player/manager. I am not sure that he would leave here for a massive pay cut. The current talk is that both he and Drogba are headed back this spring.

As someone has already said, I just want us to win. I don't like Liverpool and I don't like Suarez (I laughed when I read the article where their manager compared him to Messi). KTBFFH

Hi Andy! Welcome!

I'm sorry for your loss, it is never easy to understand when someone dies and when they are young it is even harder. ((HUGS))

If you believe Lucas he started with 4 because the technology didn't exist in the 70's to make the first 3 the way he wanted. But I agree watch them in the order they were made, and if you can find the original versions of IV, V, and VI before Lucas mucked them up and "remastered" and fixed them.

you can already find this at Disney World in Florida…. sad but true They expect to make 3 more movies… again sad but true and since the purist are already pissed off, they'll be really angry with the next 3 My suspicion is that Lucas is probably dying, because I my gut feeling is that is the only way he would sell out. But this is only my opinion and there is nothing what so ever to back it up.

Kezza, That just stinks! I'm sorry sweetie, but apparently she didn't understand the gem she had! I hope you find someone more worthy of you! ((HUGS))

Gary, you are both adorable… he more than you tho! lol

welcome!

ouch, a head ache from the bump and the hangover. How are you feeling?
