Monday's CPI number could go a long way toward getting us a better sense of direction, ... And perhaps what we'll see on Monday is a return back to the normal levels of consumer price index inflation.

There's a little magic about Notre Dame and there are innumerable idiosyncrasies about this special place as well, ... and somebody who had attend Notre Dame as an undergraduate and had the opportunity to be part of the residential nature of this campus, and to have been touched by the spirituality that perhaps exist here, I think is just in a much better position to serve as one of the most visible leaders of this institution.

banging beat brian earn frustrated game games knowing last learned lesson mean playing throwing trusting valuable
I think Brian learned a valuable lesson last week. He was frustrated and I told him, 'They're going to make us beat them by throwing the football, so you need to take that as a compliment.' That doesn't mean you surrender. You keep playing because it's going to be a game where you earn every one of your yards. Games like this are games of persistence, games of trusting yourself, and knowing it's not going to look pretty all the time, but you have to keep banging away.

abortion blended car equivalent family few five living pay people sending trade worth
I said to my husband, what will Slava be worth in five years? Every day people pay $30,000 for a new car and trade it off in a few years, but what will he be worth? He's blended in to our family so well. Sending him back there (to Russia) is to me the equivalent of abortion because living out there is like living on the outskirts of hell.
