Tabbing between open windows
Lately I have noticed that when I use shift + tab to go from one application to another, the tool bar at the bottom of the screen will highlight new window that I am trying to go to, but that window does not open. The current window that I am in will "gray out." I then have to minimize all applications before I can get to the application I want. I am working in IE6. The applications I have open are the internet, Instant Text, Word, and Windows Media Player. Sometimes I might also have Stedman's Word book open as well. I also work in Bayscribe so I have the Bayscribe Player open as well. Does anyone know how I can fix this so I an easily alternate between each window? This is getting annoying.

Additionally, has anyone tried out IE7 yet? I ran into a few issues with with it and Bayscribe and IT. Can anyone say they like it or are you experiencing problems with it too?

Thanks!!
Having multiple windows open

I mostly use online resources (rather than books) but find that it takes time to (alt+tab) through all the windows when I have a lot of open. ... When I have a lot open, I often accidentally tab right past the one I want (as I am trying to hurry) and go round and round a couple times.


Does anyone know of any other way to utilize the Internet in a more efficient way while working? 


Also, I often end up with my sound freezing, etc. which I think is because I don't have enough RAM for everything I am trying to do.  Any info on this?


Thanks so much!! 


maybe youhave too many windows or programs open or minimized?..nm

Got that right! 70s today, windows open, clean air. Great stuff in NY! nm

Here's a tip: Put fabric softener and hot water in spray bottle and spray the paper down. Works

I tried chemical peels..
I've had 3 Jessner peels, 2 Beta Lift peels, and several glycolic acid peels.  At first it was wonderful, and I loved the results.  Shortly after getting the Beta Lifts, my pores became huge.  I talked to an asthetician, and she said that this is a "side effect" of having chemical peels.  I wish someone would have told me sooner.  I would have never done it.  Retin-A could have solved my minor wrinkle problem without giving me huge craters for pores. 
Just skip over it.. A little lively debate spices things up.

FDA Orange Book (sm)
is available in PDF format.  It is updated monthly.  I doubt you would want to print the entire thing (1038 pages) but Appendix A is a straight list by drug name, but that's still 55 pages.  Easy to save to your computer and reference while working though!  There are also database formats available for download.
You can't just open the attachment. You need to save it to a file and then open SM
your wave player and load it.

Are you working in DOS or Windows? In Windows, it's Kilobytes.

in bakery section - orange wrapper
They're WONDERFUL - if you've never tried them, do.  They are in an orange package.
If I boil mine ahead of time, I go ahead and peel off the shell after they have (sm)
been sitting in a pan of cold water for about 30 minutes.
Cook it real slow at real low heat; simmer, don't boil.

FeBreeze Air Spray

It eliminates odors in the air rather than covering them up. It comes in a variety of scents so you are bound to find one that you like.


We have a very small kitchen so cooking odors saturate the whole house, plus, to make matters worse,  we have a dog so I always use the Febreeze air spray to get rid of odors in the air & regular Febreeze for the sofa, curtains, etc. Its a life saver!!

I use Endust Electronics spray...
Look for a blue can. I'd never use anything else. It's also antistatic.

Other than that, you can get those special LCD cleaning kits (they come in packs of wrapped towelettes)-just look in the Office Depot catalog.
Will pepper spray work?
I was considering getting some as the dogs behind me mauled another dog  (blind in one eye, collapsed lung, laceration on its front leg, back claws broken off from resisting being pulled under) by pulling it under the fence between the yards. Animal control says we can't do anything as long as the dogs are fenced in. But, it is just a matter of time before they dig a big enough hole to get under the fence - as it is, they look like they can make it over the fence if they try hard enough.  Animal control told me to build a privacy fence with my own money.  TG we are moving soon.  I swear if those dogs come in my yard and get anywhere near my kids, I will be tempted to shoot them.  They have bitten two neighbors already.
oh, when done? Spray Lysol Disinfectant...nm

Spray-painting daughter

Another thing that matters is the composition of the pavement, concrete vs. blacktop for example.  Concrete is porous, and has a tendency to absorb paint into the pores rather than it just sitting on the surface.  Heh.  Relax, and think how much you would enjoy their little art project 20 years from now.  It will wear off eventually.


maybe spray outside the house around the base? NM

try Listerine in a spray bottle
it works in my car.  I had problems with ants getting in the car during summer. I was told to spray (soak) the carpet, and WA la... no more ants!! 
Carry mace or pepper spray for this. (nt)

I just found the best spray for June bugs sm
and spiders, ants and those yukky black and yellow bees that go in the ground. I have June bugs something awful this year, hundreds banging around my house. And those bees were so bad last year I couldn't get in the garden, they had invaded everything and got in the house as well. I talked to a farmer who used this stuff called Suspend. He said it really worked but it was expensive.  I found some on the web and mixed a couple gallons and went around the foundation, under the decks and sprayed a bunch in every bee hole I could find and wow, it's like magic. I haven't seen one bee scouting around the holes, no ants in the house anymore or in the gardens and not one spider. We get those big wolf spiders and I found 4 dead ones in the alley. It's great. It's $40.00 for a bottle (I think its a pint) and it makes around 11 gallons. I bought it at http://www.doyourownpestcontrol.com.  No, I am not a distributor nor do I make any money off referrals. Just recommending something I finally found has worked.
Be careful with pepper spray, you'll get your dogs too

and possibly yourself if the wind is blowing just right.  The stuff is extremely powerful and won't just bring down the offending animal.


I agree with calling animal control, as they are the "animal police" and the "people police" won't even bother. 


The dog owner needs to be reported whether he was in his yard trying to get his dog back in or not.  Sure, maybe the dog "got loose," but he should have at least been decent enough to apologize.


 


Spray paint is oil based. Regular cleaners
will not remove it. My recommendation is for you to go to the paint department of your local Home Depot or Lowe's and ask them. They should be very knowledgable about it. I used to work in the paint department at Home Depot, but it was a loooooong time ago, so I cannot remember what product you should use.

How do I get it ST to open when escription is open?

I started using paper towels and a disinfectant spray. Washcloths were starting to gross me out..sm

I know it may be a waste of paper towels, but I feel safer and cleaner.


Brewer's yeast in tablet form, Purple can Raid that you can spray on dogs and bedding

I just gotta say...
sometimes saying "ain't" just feels good... sort of like letting off a good swear word (fiddlesticks just doesn't do the trick)... when I'm feeling rebelious saying I AIN'T gonna do something feels way more satisfying than saying I'm not going to
gotta ask

Okay, this makes sense.  So what about people who live near the poles who have extended hours of darkness?  Will they rule Alaska at being high risk?  I knew a woman who had lived there in the service and she said she did her gardening at 2 AM because it wasn't dark.  They adjusted. 


Personally, I work better at night and sleep better during the day.  I am sharp at night and can produce way more.  I can sleep deeply, restfully during the day but not at night.  I seem to be the opposite.  I've been this way since I was a kid.  Maybe I came out of the womb too late in the day!!!!


gotta tell you this one

My neighbor retired from Magnavox forcefully when they left and went to Mexico.  He said there is a law that if a part is missing, they don't have to pay the import tax, so they purposefully ship their items with a knob missing!  It really ticked us off this happens.  It wasn't this administration that started this whole thing either..I won't get into a politics discussion because everyone's beliefs are their own, but just doing a little research will show it.


I also have an aunt whose husband retired from Ford and she said they got a letter if the company does go under, she will lose her little pension check and all her medical benefits.  I've seen these companies go under then suddenly appear again once they've stopped all former benefis, which is a crock IMO.  Seems like now it's back to the old way, everybody has to stay in the same house and everybody work just to get by. I don't know how minimum wage people make it.


 


This has gotta be a put-on, right?

One of us is just yanking everybody else's chain with this 'I am most wonderful and experienced MT but I don't speak it the language' lingo?  Come on, are we on Candid Computer? 


War of the Worlds -- You gotta see it!!

I just saw it tonight....FABULOUS!!  I admit I was skeptical because on Rotten Tomatoes (the website I go to see critics' notes first) it was falling and there's been ups and downs about it...AND because as much as I have always loved Tom Cruise he has really gone off the deep end in my opinion.


However, the movie was fabulous.  I remember the old black and white movie too.  Tom played his part incredibly; as did the little girl (forget her name); and Tim Robbins, too.  Really was something.


Go see it!


Sorry.....gotta say my husband, especially when I see
him throwing ball with my son or reading a book to our little girl.......then 10 minutes later when he's leaving his dirty clothes in the bathroom, I could just kill him.....LOL.
