click on EDIT and printer page setup

I got one of those printers when I ordered my last Dell and I gave it away free-of-charge - looked too much like a cheap toy to me.  However, do what the other poster said in the control panel and if that doesn't work, try clicking on EDIT at the top left of your browser and click print or printer page setup and check things there....


also - if you reboot your computer, your settings might all come back the way it was before. 


go to Home Page


Mozilla home page
I used to have AOL. I got rid of it because it was expensive and I had security problems. Now it's free, but I can't tell if the part I miss is free, and I don't know enough to know if I can still be using Mozilla and have free AOL. I just don't get how all this stuff works - sorry. I hate to put this in question to a tech board because tech people really look down on AOL. But what I liked was the way you came to a page with a wide variety of news stories, pictures, and interesting stuff. There was a lot of fun customizing you could do with graphics, but mostly I think I miss the opening page. I have not come across anything with as much variety as far as AOL's page, say with Yahoo. Can I have a home page like that with Mozilla?
My home page says it is Wednesday, not today - sm
they say they will have a memorial service at the zoo at the stadium there with 5000 in attendance and have big screens showing it in the zoo and in Queensland, Australia. They are to be televising the service then. So someone is wrong, either Animal Planet or my web site, but I will check it out just in case. Thanks.
Might want to check the Microsoft home page and see

Thank you to each and every one of you...and to the moderators

Thank you for letting my post stay up because today was just a really bad day, and I need to tell you that just reading what everyone had to say helped very, very much.  I want to thank every one of you who has replied so far because every single one of you has really helped me get through this day, and given me thoughts to keep with me as I get through each day.  Laura, I don't think that you're cold-hearted.  I think it's like others have said, too - we do all grieve differently.  I don't know why today has been such a bad one, but I am taking a lot of strength away from what you all have written, and I think I know more now that these "waves" that come over me are normal.  I know that there is help out there...possibly medication for a time, grief counseling.  I'll be seeing my FNP in a few weeks, and I'll bring some of these issues up when I'm there.


I just wanted to say thank you again for sharing your own memories and experiences with me, and just for showing thoughtfulness and caring.  You've really carried me through a bad day and have made me feel...I guess not so much like I'm going off the deep end.


were are all the moderators from? (nm)

Same to you and the moderators and all!!..n/m

Yes we are looking for new moderators
those who are willing to help, send us an email at admin@mtstars.com
Why are you asking us? This you have to ask the moderators...nm

oops - sorry moderators....sm

I forgot NOT to mention a company....here's a repost....sorry...


I have been an MTSO for 9 years and an SE for almost 6.  I have never been audited but I keep everything, all receipts, all invoicing, absolutely everything, just in case.  The people I SE for take out taxes, which is a GREAT thing for me, and so I only pay taxes outright in April on my private accounts.  In Florida, it's known as a sole proprietorship, where you can be the employer and the employee, and I think only THREE states allow this (but I'm not sure about that part-the latter 3 states).  I hope never to get audited but it is in such great order and I can prove absolutely everything.


Click on tools, AutoCorrect, and click on tab that says
AutoFormat as you type and uncheck the ordinals option.
If it's installed, click or F10 to open it, click on...sm
the little white piece of paper icon to bring up the window where you ADD your new entries to, type your abbreviation in the Keyword box, then drop down to the Text to Type box and put in what you need it to say, then click Okay. You're done! If you want to delete your entry, arrow down to it, then click on the Trash Can icon. It'll ask if you want to put it on the clipboard, say yes and hit okay. If you want to modify it, use the little hand on the piece of paper icon. I like to click on the Disk icon to save stuff once I enter it, too, as a backup. If you're working and want to enter a paragraph or a page, you'll hightlight your stuff, bring up the ADD window, copy and paste it into the Text to Type area using the commands on the bottom of that box, name it, and hit okay. To use hot keys and stuff, you'll have to read the instructions in the help file. Good luck! ..nm
Thank you!! Now if only ALL board moderators took this stance.
nm
To summarize it,: We all agree that the moderators
are doing a great job and we can be happy to be given this forum where we can vent and find people who at least understand what we are talking about.

Thank you for all the compassionate input on all the boards and 'keep pushing da pedal.'..........
Board isnt important to moderators.

Happy Thanksgiving from all the staff & moderators at MTStars!

Paula,

Thanks a lot for sharing these great websites!
Heck yeah. Need leaders to come forward, moderators, a sense of patriotism (we pay taxes).




Coimbatore ready to spin a different storey


8 Mar 2009, 0129 hrs IST, S Sujatha, ET Bureau

The Manchester of South India, Coimbatore, is still brimming with a lot of positive energy as far as the real estate scenario is concerned. The
city, with a population of 1.8 million people, has a few pan-India players in the real estate market but the 35-40 odd local developers are confident of staying in business despite the economic slowdown.

Though many are in the wait-and-watch mode, buyers are looking at this growing city as the place for long-term investment, especially on the residential front. Industry experts say majority of the buyers are from nearby cities like Chennai and Bangalore and non-resident Coimbatoreans and NRIs, who want to settle here post retirement.

The latest Jones Lang LaSalle India30 Real Estate Opportunities in Tier III cities identifies Coimbatore as one of the top 10 growing consumer markets. “Though Coimbatore stands low on current office market activity, the growing engineering and IT potential is sure to throw up opportunities for the real estate market in the next few years,” said experts.

“The prices are marginally down by 5-10% in Coimbatore but the situation will not worsen any further. Land prices are going up and construction costs have increased. We don’t see any downslide on price aspect,” said Omkar Mohan Sankar, a real estate developer in the city.

According to him, the city has perfect attributes such as excellent locale, ideally set in the footsteps of Nilgiris, pleasant climate and sweet Siruvani water. Further, it is an education and healthcare hub and the two industries are recession proof.

Though textile industry is going through tough times, work options are increasing as nearby districts such as Tirupur, Erode and Karur are fast catching the attention of world markets with their fashion products.

Also, with the entry of big players such as L&T and Suzlon in the engineering industry, more investment is expected in real estate market. “Once the companies look at increasing their work force, the requirement for housing would increase and the residential value in the city will go up,” said market sources.

State-owned Electronics Corporation of India’s Tidel Park in IT-SEZ is expected to be ready by January and is likely to provide employment to nearly 12,000 people, which means more residential space will be needed. The Wipro development centre inside the IT-SEZ is also nearing completion and more IT companies like TCS and HCL have plans here.

The city already has the presence of global engineering and IT giants like Robert Bosch and Cognizant and big IT & ITES players like Perot Systems and Spheris. “The city is looking at employing 20,000 more and even if 20% opt for new homes, there would be a demand for 4,000-5000 houses soon,” said Mr Rajesh B Lund, VP, Confederation of Real Estate Developer’s Associations of India.




Yep, $2.00 a page and the page has about 30-40 lines on it nm

NJ $3 page, though I have heard as low as $1 page.

When I worked for a national, up thru 2 years ago, I was getting $1.75 page and heard they got $4.


My kids have suffered greatly from me working at home with them home. SM
I have been working at home as an MT since my two kids were born. They are now 4 and 5. In the first few years, I had no help whatsoever. Their father was a bum who didnt work or take care of them while I worked. Your children get neglected while you work basically. And babies and young children desperately need your attention while they are home with you.

My kids have so many behavioral problems right now because of their neglect. I would try to set them up with things to occupy themselves, like coloring or a movie, etc.

I finally put them in day care and things have improved, but there are still a lot of issues because of the damage that was done. They still try to seek attention by doing bad things and they dont listen to me because they are so used to me letting them get away with a lot of stuff because I was too busy typing to discipline them in their early years.

If I could do it all over again, I would definitely have put them into day care from the very beginning.

My advice would be to seek PT care for your baby. Maybe you can do some work around her schedule a little when she is home, like when she takes a nap, and then bang out a bunch of work while she is in day care.


I enjoy being alone at home, but I've got one home sick from school already.

One on one with a kid is nice, too.


This summer has been absolutely crazy.  I haven't had a moment to myself for three months because all of my kids were home traipsing their friends through the house and yard.  My husband switched his work schedule, too, so he's around more than usual.  However, I like not having to do two loads of dishes and four loads of laundry a day.  There are no toys or clutter dragged out everywhere.  I can clean the house first thing in the morning, and it stays clean until everyone gets home at night.


I even got to relax with a cup of coffee and watch TV for half an hour this morning, something I liked for a change instead of cartoons or kids' movies.  I signed up for an online class that I've been wanting to take.  I can exercise without being interrupted.  Yesterday, I went to the mall and spent all my saved up gift cards.  I got some clothes, books, bath stuff, and a new coffee mug.  My work gets done a lot faster, too.  Call me nuts, but I've never had the luxury of being alone in the house for 14 years.  It's kinda nice.  I love my family with all my heart, but I love having a few hours to myself each week, too.


Except now the cat and dogs have been acting weird since the kids went back to school.  They must think that I need someone or something to clean up after and correct behavior on.  They're getting into everything and racing around the house behind me.


my take is that she worked inhouse, not at home, and now wants to find out how to work at home. nm

Forget "per line." Your take-home pay should be taking home SM
roughly what it was before. If it is not, is it because your current pay rate for editing (which in many companies keeps changing as the VR system is developed) is too low or is it because your talents and skills are more for speed typing than speed editing?

If the first, discuss it with higherups, and go get a new job if you don't get the response you need. My last MTSO was secretly refiguring how production was counted to pay us less. I can accept hard reality, it was the secrecy that burned. Sometimes, though, it's just that the learning curves of individual editors and that of the system aren't in sync, and you end up temporarily making less.

If the second, though, recognize it as soon as possible and change to straight transcription work, in your company or a new one, for as long as you can find it.

As for why we aren't paid more for a higher skill, that's just the way the labor supply ball bounces. Best wishes.
I think she means she has wireless TO her home, not IN her home..nm

hospital at-home -vs- national at home

I have an interview today with a hospital...work in-house for 3 months, then go home, paid on production. I don't know as of yet what they pay production, so my question is to anyone who works for a hospital at home AND has also worked for a national at home...


Which would be the best to choose? The hospital offers great benefits, but the national I work for now also has benefits, not as good as the hospital, though.  Any input would be most appreciated!



click this one instead :)

You have to click . . .(sm)
on the "eye" and then the foot pedal tab. Then you can input 2 or 3. But it will not take effect until to download the next job.
Click on history
It states that in Nov. 2004 Warburg Pincus and Soros Private Equity Partners acquired Spheris. It is right on their history page.
I use GearPlayer and when I click (sm)
"start," "programs" and find "GearPlayer", when I highlight Gearplayer I'm given the option of "tools" and then I can test my footpedal. Just wondering if perhaps your footpedal will be controlled by whatever program you are using to run it? Try checking under your programs listed and see if there are any options there. Or try rebooting your computer, maybe and see if that resets something??? I hope these suggestions help you!!
Right click on your desktop (sm)
and select Arrange Icons and uncheck Auto Arrange.

This one seems to only do the mouse click
part, and doesn't let you move the mouse. It says you can use one pedal for the mouse click, one instead of the ALT key, and one for the CTRL key. So you would still have to take your hand off the keyboard to move the darned mouse. At least that's the way I read it.
Usually you click on their name and e-mail SM

box will open up.  You fill it out and click send.  You won't know what the e-mail address is as MTStars keeps is confidential....so it might behoove you to use an anonymous e-mail of your own if you have one.


Hope this helps!

You have to right click the file and
save it to your computer. Then open express scribe and load the files from wherever you saved them.
When you click on the C: drive,
'Documents and Settings'? That is the folder that I would double click on in the C: drive folder, and then 'Owner'. My 'My Documents' folder is inside the 'Owner' folder.
Did you try with a right mouse click instead
xx
I don't think it works that way. Usually you right click and tell it

what directory to save to.  Once it saves the file then you open it and do the test.    This is the way I've tested several times.   If you are testing using and MTTest test this is the way it is done. 


If you click on "posted by", you get a -
"send an email" form that pops up, where you have to put YOUR email info, but it doesn't disclose theirs.

Still.... I'm always wary!
In your post click on the FTP
and it will give you a definition of an FTP.  Any words underlined and in purple in your posts if you click them, a definition appears.  This may help explain it.  Also, you can look under Wikipedia if you Google FTP.
CLICK ON FORMAT,

Then the arrow at the bottom to bring up more choices.  Pick "background", then choose the color you want.


click settings then...sm
under Playback tab, adjust the Auto Backstep on Stop (0-5000ms). 1000ms = 1 second.
