I have posted a couple of links inside for both Maine and New Hampshire -sm

Posted By: Wilson on 2006-08-09
In Reply to: Well I think the part you mention in NH and in Maine Acadia and Bar Harbor. Not sure what else there - MTPA

There are a lot of great places to visit in either state.  Kind of depends on what your interests are and if you are traveling alone or with children.  Also depends on what time you plan on visiting. 


I live in Maine and have visited New Hampshire several times.  Not sure I can answer all your questions but feel free to ask and I will try.  Hope the links below help you. 


Portland is a nice place and you can go to what they call the Old Port (which is on the water) and there are old shops and stuff there.  Nice place to walk around if you want to walk.  To drive I would travel up Route 1 (traffic may be heavy but you get to see the coast of Maine).  Freeport is a nice place to visit if you want to shop.  Home of the famous LL Bean.  Kittery (which is just across the border from Portsmouth) has outlet stores.  Portsmouth also is nice and I believe they have a lot of old historic buildings if that is of interest to you.  


here is the link for Maine - http://www.visitmaine.com/home.php


The White Moutains in NH are beautiful as I said before.  Also in North Conway, NH there are tons of outlet stores there also.

Any points on sightseeing in Maine and New Hampshire, just highlights that are most worthwhile. nm
:
We went to Maine a couple of years ago and it
was a MAJOR disappointment.   It was nothing at all like you see on TV.   We were in southern ME and people didn't keep up their yards, no one had a single flower in their yard, although there were a couple of hanging baskets and people were not very friendly.  Went to Portland and couldn't get out of there fast enough.  Everyone we met was rude and the place was just so dirty looking.

You could probably find others by doing a Google search for "shareware fax programs" or something of the sort. Good luck!!

The links inside may help answer some of your questions:
You might wan to check out the CMT Candidate Guide: http://www.aamt.org/scriptcontent/Downloads/CMTCandidateGuide.pdf

To paraphrase from the CMT guide regarding retakes of the exam: If a candidate fails and wishes to retake the CMT exam, they must wait until 6 months have passed to re-apply to AAMT. There is no limit to the number of times a candidate may
retake the exam (it just cannot be taken more than twice per year). The registration fee is charged each time the exam is taken.

You can also check here for more info on the exam and answers to FAQ. http://www.aamt.org/scriptcontent/chub.cfm

You might also want to check out the CMT Review Guide, available from the AAMT: http://www.aamt.org/source/Orders/index.cfm?section=Orders&task=3&CATEGORY=INV%2DPRO&PRODUCT_TYPE=SALES&SKU=STED%5FCMTREV&DESCRIPTION=&FindSpec=&CFTOKEN=65179116&continue=1&SEARCH_TYPE=find&StartRow=11&PageNum=2

I posted a couple days ago about my contract negotiations with a hospital. SM

Now, we have negotiated 12 cpl and that I only need to deliver work three times a week.  We've also decided that radiology will be a whole separate contract and that next week I will do a sample of dictation to see if the dictators are going to be difficult.  And then the negotiations start again.


How am I doing so far?


Which part of Maine and NH were you thinking of visiting??? The Maine coast is beautiful -sm

and the White Mountains in NH is also nice.  I would suggest driving the Kangamangus Highway in the White Mountains in NH.  Very nice drive and beautiful views of the White Mountains.  I believe the Old Man of the Mountain is along this route but part of him fell a while ago so not sure what he looks like now???!!!

How about the Old Man in the Mountain.  Not sure where it is but I think it is in the White Mountains.
I have 2 middle age couple friends. One couple became pregnant from condom failure.
This is not just "irresponsible" behavior! Both couples are "fixed" now, because for them, reliable birth control was NOT. But it's an error to assume this stuff happens to people who are unmarried or irresponsible. Both these couples are raising 2nd families, now, but it wasn't "irresponsibility" that did them in!
Don't know about Maine
but here in Northeast Alabama we do actually have an overpopulation.  However, I agree the state can come up with some ridiculous laws regarding hunting.  We used to raise cattle.  There were as many deer as cattle on our farm.  We were constantly having to repair fencing, not to mention what they did to our gardens, etc.  Last year my husband hit a deer with his car on his way home from work.  State Farm said they had handled more deer claims this year than ever before.  Also, most of the hunters I know either eat the meat themselves, or give it to someone who wants it.  By the way, my husband is a member of the NRA, but the NRA not only fights gun control, but promotes gun safety and responsibility. I am not flaming. You have a right to your opinion. Guns are dangerous in the wrong hands.  I don't love guns, but I feel they have their place.  There is sometimes only one deputy patrolling our whole county at night.  If we have a problem, we are on our own.  I feel like guns are a necessary evil where I live.  My husband once held some young men at gun point who my 75-year-old neighbor caught stealing her grandson's ATV (the grandson was in Iraq).  Of course he did not shoot anyone, but he did hold them until the deputies could get there- 45 minutes later.

Going to Maine.
I am originally from Bangor, Maine, and my family has a cabin on Lake Sebec.  My mom, dad, sister, son, and I went for 10 days last year and we are going again this year.  It's really great to go and see all of my family.  I have a very large family up there and since they are 1000 miles away, I don't get to see them very often.  Can't wait to go, although the drive up and back is a looooong one!

Casco Bay TR in Maine
I live in Maine and have not heard of them. They must be fairly new or changed their name from something else.

They're in Maine. :-)

I thought so. There is an MT company in Maine using it also. nm

re: a canadian MT who lives next to MAINE
I have a MT company from portland, Maine who w ants me to work for them as an IC. They offered me 7 cents per line american. WHat a freakin joke!!

I wont work for under 12 cents per line and I have been out of it for awhile (6 years!!).

See ya!!
Any one know of Casco Bay Transcription in Maine?
I would like to hear from anyone who works for this company.   Do they pay decent?  Are they good to work for?   Thank you.
She's pretty - like a Maine Coon? (sm)
I bet she gets into all sorts of hilarious mischief. I like watching cats on Funniest Home Videos. Just saw the one where the toddler was gently poking at the cat who was sitting in a chair. She suddenly had enough, so she stood on her back feet and whopped his head repeatedly with those lightening fast paws. Kid didn't know what happened, just looked at the camera like, What the ??


Love it! It gets dark in Maine in Dec. by 4 p.m.

I hate standard time though.  They can leave it as it is now and eliminate going back to standard time in the fall as far as I'm concerned.  The clocks always go back right before Halloween too so the little ghosts and goblins have to trick or treat in the dark.


It does mess things up a bit changing over though.  Last night my kids were all hungry and I said, "Oh for goodness sakes it's only . . . .. ALMOST SEVEN??"


Oops. . . . "hello, Dominos?"  :)


Ayuh and if you don't like the weathah in Maine. . . .

wait a minute, it'll change.



Here are some more - Maine Medical Center, sm
Fairview Health System, Gwinnett Medical Center, Atlanta, Piedmont Hospital, Beth Israel Deaconess, Charlston Medical Center, West Virginia, Pacific California Hospital, UMass hospital, Marin General Hospital, California, New England Baptist, and the list goes on and on and on.
never mind, found it - maine
not the one i worked for.
Eastern Maine Medical Center
I miss working with other people. I miss having a QA person or a supervisor I know and can go talk to. I miss the hospital gossip and hearing about people's grandkids. Sigh. I left them to work at home figuring it would be all that. But it's not. Sigh....
Come to Maine in February, you'll cool off :)

However, it has been soooooo hot here for a month.  I'm not just talking heat, we get 95 degrees with 86% humidity and even the kitchen floor is sticky under your feet. And that's with the AC on, choking in the background.  The humidity makes everything sticky.  115 degrees of dry heat is like oven heat.  95 degrees of humid heat is like a sauna and you feel as if you're sucking in water when you breathe.


But February. . . .nice and cool.  20 below 2 weeks in a row.  A good day might go up to 2 (that's degrees).  In February we can't wait for the hot humid weather.  In July we can't wait for snow, but not for February though, more like December when it's a nice 20 above.


 


Love it! Maine's motto should be "Freezeyourbuttoffland"

In case anyone missed it, there is a woman from Maine, sm

Her name is Cathi Lee. Her success story hit our tiny local newspaper one day and she has since been on Today, Good Morning America and in People Magazine.


If you Google her name and weight loss, you can see some articles about her.


I'm too technologically inept to be able to post anything here. I do know that there is a video on WMTW.com of her story.


She was 500 lbs. and lost 330 lbs. in 3 years without fad diets, pills or surgery. She just finally set her mind to it, did a lot of research and now at 48, she is a third of the size she was.


One of her main things was walking and I totally agree with that. I don't care if it's zero out, I still walk. I left my inhouse job 2 years ago and I've LOST 25 lbs. I have time to walk and I make myself do it unless it's pouring rain.


I also do not buy anything that I will eat for junk food, especially "desk food." Do not buy anything that you can easily snack on at your desk. Big mistake. I used to have a desk drawer of "comfort" snacks at my inhouse job and would snack all day.


Another thing is water. Not in the form of 6 cups of coffee. Just plain water and lots of it. NO SODA! Even diet soda will cause fluid retention. Keep a diet soda as a "treat" for the end of your work shift before you go walking. :)


Good luck!


 


Teeny town in Maine. I never even thought . . .sm

That this may not be the best thing to do if you live in a city or something.


We have virtually no crime rate unless the juveniles are bored and smash a pumpkin or something. We don't lock our doors and leave the keys in the car.  It's a little tiny neighborhood with the 100 x 100 lots and everyone knows everyone by name.


Some customers leave paper money in envelopes clipped to their mailboxes right out in plain view and nobody has ever taken any.


There are neighborhoods in our nearest city that I wouldn't dream of doing this in.


So it's probably not for everyone.


I found my notes--- Olympus DS-2300--$172 at Abe's of Maine - sm
this is basically the direct replacement for the DS-300, only difference is the looks adn it has a removable memory card, other than that pretty much the same; the other comparable unit is the DS-2--it goes for about $105, a little more limiting in its features but still a good recorder. Check out Pricegrabber.com, great for shopping around.

Well I think the part you mention in NH and in Maine Acadia and Bar Harbor. Not sure what else there
is that I should see. I expect Portsmouth NH would be nice.

Unlimited long distance in Maine. Please see message.
Hi all! There was a thread not far down on this board about unlimited long distance, and a few companies were mentioned, like Verizon, etc. I found out today that not all of these services are offered in Maine, where I live.
Does anyone know of any unlimited long distance services at reasonable prices in Maine?
ALSO, I know we have AT&T unlimited long distance here in Maine. Does anyone know if AT&T is one of the "good" companies? That is, can I use a C-phone with them and not be penalized?
Thanks so much for any help anyone can give!
You are in Maine, right Hayseed? I am in Indiana, and I totally agree SM
with you. It has been bitterly cold the past week with snow most every day, including today. I am glad I dont have to go out in it.

I get frustrated over the same issues as other MTs, but I just do what you said, walk away and try to keep a good attitude.
Is Terra Nova owned by a guy that lives on the border of Maine/Canada? - sm
If so, this guy is a snake. He was willing to pay $0.14/line for the Kaleida account just temporarily until he could get his lines set up to offshore. He told me that on the phone!!!

Don't have time to look for more, but one time in school we had cheap glass bulb ornaments and we wrote our name and year on them with glue and then sprinkled with glitter.  You could probably get bulbs/glitter at dollar store.


You might also want to go the dollar store and look for craft kits.  I buy kits every year from a craft store and they usually make 6-12.  If the tables in the room were in groups you could just take a paper plate and pour 1 kit out on each and they could share, or you could divide up the items into a baggie and make copies of the instructions.


You could take bagels (from the bakery outlet stores and cheap) and smear with peanut butter and then press in bird seed, attach some thread and hang on a tree near their classroom - unless you are wanting them to have something to take home.  Can also use pine cones for this.


Buy some plain gingerbread man cookies and tubes of frosting and sprinkles and let them decorate them.

If you’re going to test people through actual dictation, I recommend that you make sure they all transcribe one report by the hardest dictator you have. If they can do that, then they’ll have no problem doing anyone else you have.

i did not get all the links until i (sm)
