in his retirement, although I hear he's going to stay busy behind the scenes with the chaplaincy program at the horse tracks.  We're gonna miss him here in Ky--

Amazing Race Fans?
Anyone as big of an AMAZING RACE fan as me??? I'm loving the hippies on this season.  I'd like to see them win, but I worry that the frat boys will take the winnings.  Mo Jo probably won't make it to the final 3!!! Then again, Ray and Yolanda have a good chance on getting the million too!  They have played fair and are so competitive.  It wouldn't suprise me if they ended up with the winnings!!  Tune in Wednesday to see.     
Still waiting - where is the word RACE or anything race-related in my posting?
Still waiting - where did I mention anyone's race in my original posting? I didn't and you know it.

Get off your self-loathing anti-white crap - whatever sucks in your life has nothing to do with me or anyone else on this board.

And, by the way, since you clearly know I never mentioned race until YOU did, I'm done arguing with you. I have better things to do than match wits with someone who hates/resents her own kind.

Have fun responding though. I'm done with your witless banter.

LOL ROFL LMAO
Going to try this out when DH retires
in three years. Hopefully the technology will get better/more reliable with time. I'm in the sticks and right now have to suffer through with dial-up and basically no cell phone reception either at home. Years ago when I used tapes, I did set up in our car and typed all the way to Florida on my laptop, which actually made the 12-14 hour drives go quicker for me. LOVE to Travel!
Racing Stripes is really good

I vote for a very pastel raspberry with red racing stripe of varying widths.nm

I'm sure it will be a race to improve on it!
Thanks! Learned something new!

Race issue
How in the world does one know what someone's race is when you are doing a class on-line?  I don't understand--please enlighten.  Thanks.
Amazing Race fan
Yes, I too am a huge fan!  I also hope the hippie boys win.  Everytime they come in last I hold my breath.  I really hope that neither the frat boys or MoJo win.  That would be a huge disappointment.  This race has been great so far.
Where did I say anything about race in my original posting?
Some PC queen accused me of having a problem wtih other races, when I said the dictator I was upset about was an "ESL". She's the one who mistakenly, yet predictably, assumed race was involved. I said nothing about race until she brought it up. Take it up with her if you have a problem with bringing race into what someone posts on here.
I was not the first to bring race into the post, the OP was.
.
Sounds like you have a problem with the whole Caucasian race

I can imagine what you're married to, living with or making Muh-babby daddies with. 


Lots of other "nationalities" are hairy, as I'm sure you know all about personally.


has nothing to do with the race, but rather the communication gap when dealing with my own medical n
I pay a premium for through my health insurance coverage. I want clear communication with my physician. Please do not throw the racial aspect in, as it has absolutely no bearing on the point at hand. In fact, my gynecologist is Asian, but she has taken the time to learn our language because she chose to practice medicine here.
We used to cruise the main drag, race on the old highway, and
stop at the burger joints to see where the parties were.  The kids don't get to do that any more because the cops bust them for loitering, curfew, etc.  In fact, that's the first thing DH and I noticed about each other was our cars while cruising the drag.  He had a red AMC Javelin and I had a red Dodge Coronet.
I cannot stand people playing the race card

This is no race issue on the View.......this is merely Star *pulling* the race card.......


Won't miss her in the least..........


WHAT race card did she pull? Ever? And are you just being delusional and showing who and how YOU r

Not just ESLs, many American docs do the same. No need to bring race into that issue.

You have a big horse, you say?

NOW THAT IS HORSE CRAP
I am sorry, as long as I have done this and am in the business, I seriously doubt with 99% accuracy that someone can do 1200 lines or even 600 without some serious help from "giving" lines.  Do not let anyone fool you out there that is just starting out or even have been around awhile.  Unless you see proof on how it is done, see it with your own eyes, try it out yourself, do not believe the outrageous.  There is also a way I have seen MT's make lots of lines that one cannot see unless they are being QA'd, it is called "padding' and yes I am sure someone then can do 1200 lines an hour, but how much is actually dictation.  Padding is a good way to get fired from a company if caught.
Since when is being an MT working like a horse???
we don't do manual labor, geeze
Ahh, that's a horse of a different color then.
I would make it clear if you type it, they pay for it unless they can give you specifics about which patients have already been typed.
Sounds like Rodney King after he wreaked havoc and caused a great race riot.
Quit calling people FOOLS and then asking if we can't get along. 
TIME TO BUY A HORSE!! YEEHAW!!

The right horse is helpful. While they all spook

The horse does line dancing
Was really cute-- does all the steps that the people do.
Oh Becky, get off your high horse.
Your holier-than-thou posts get really old. Can you say 'uptight'?
Straight from the horse's mouth . . .

Snagged this straight from the Escription site.  Hope it helps.


We have had success configuring both the Belkin USB/Serial Adaptor and the Dynex USB PDA/Serial Adaptor to work properly with a serial Foot Pedal and EditScript MT. Other adaptors may also work using this setup, however we cannot guarantee that they will.



  1. To set up the Belkin USB/Serial Adaptor:
  2. Install the USB/Serial adaptor per the instructions included with the device.
  3. After installation, open the Windows Device Manager:

    1. Right-Click on My Computer, choose Properties.
    2. From the Hardware tab, cick Device Manager.
    3. In the Device Manager window, click the + sign next to Ports (COM & LPT). You should see the USB/Serial Adaptor listed there with a COM port next to it.
    4. Right click on the Adaptor and choose Properties.
    5. From the Port Settings tab, click Advanced.
    6. From the COM Port Number drop-down, set the device to COM6. (Any COM device higher than COM4 should also work; be sure to remember what you set this to.)
    7. Click OK to close the Advanced window, then OK to close the Properties window.

  4. Close the Device Manager
  5. Now open EditScript and log in.
  6. Once you have logged in, click on the Options button in the EditScript toolbar:
  7. From the Foot Pedal tab, change the CommPort setting to COM6 (or whichever port it was set to above).
  8. Click OK to close the Options dialog.

Your Foot Pedal should now work properly through the Serial/USB adaptor.

Oh, get off your high horse. Have YOU ever done the truly horrible ESLs?? nm

Any horse lovers out there who would care to email me. I have
a problem with a skin infection on an Arab.  Need some advice or chat websites.  Thanks.
Come to think of it, I had 1 that was worse, cleaning horse manure
Cleaning horse stall out, 20 a day. I used to have to take it over to a manurer spread that was in a riding arena that was down lower than where I was, I'd open the door and dump the wheel barrow. One time the spread was almost full and I lost me foot and fell in, about broke my leg. My kids were little then and ran to the other side of the barn and LAUGHED!!!! I came up out of there and said "You better not be laughing at me!!" Oh I was hurt and mad!! What a job!
Trojan Horse - tried to enter my computer while I was on here

This is what Norton said it was


 


Norton Internet Worm Protection has detected and blocked an intrusion attempt.


Security - Default Block Gatecrasher Trojan Horse.


FYI


Easier said than done, but you keep beating a dead horse.

As an IC, I have tried many times to find skilled, qualified people to help me. If I had a dime for every time that didn't work out, I could retire. The fact is, I DO take my laptop on vacations--much to the dismay of my family--but that's the only way the work can and will get done IN A QUALITY MANNER.


Unfortunately, American workers are pricing themselves out of the market with both their hourly wage demands, vacation/sick time, insurance benefits, etc., and the work is going to the lowest bidder. 


Sounds like a load of horse puckey.
The ONLY way I can see that, and I highly doubt it, is if her docs have mostly standard exams that give her a HUGE boost in lines.

On eScription I did a group of cancer docs who really had pretty standard exams so I could EDIT 1000 lph easily but noooo way could I straight type 600 lph.
Good for you but I hope you get off your high horse
i agree with your post -- however, you just don't seem to get it -- CIRCUMSTANCES happen -- my s/o and I had something happen last month to where he had to renew a license for his work -- had it renewed and on PAPER, however, his company said they wanted the "hard plastic copy" he has to carry a gun to work and the state and federal government took their sweet time -- he got laid off, applied for unemployment, got a couple of checks for a WHOPPING $275 a week!!! -- Finally, last week got a call from his employer "even though you legally can't carry a gun right now, we have a position" -- this week the PROPER paperwork came in, he got rehired, but LOST ALL his senority. I hope you are wonderful and yes, we DO live within our means, we use ATM cards etc and I balance my checkbook but who the heck are YOU to judge!!!!
Thank you! I don't really know how many fans it has.
It is a fairly new computer so it probably has more than one. It vents through the side through a long slotted vent the entire length of the computer. I'm going to try the canned air from Wall-Mart to see if that helps.
Y&R fans...

or 2...


1st:  How in the world is it that Jill and Katherine are mother and daughter????


2nd:  Is Brad Ashely's baby's daddy? Or is Victor? Or does she even know for sure?


I have just recently started watching it again after about 4 years off and need a little catching up...


Are there any 24 fans out there.
This has got to be the best show on TV and I can't understand why everyone is not watching it. Jack Bauer is awesome.....
Any Y&R fans out there?
Is it me or have they gotten hookie?  It's almost like they're making this up as they go along. 
Any ER fans?
I've missed a few episodes as it just wasn't pulling me in like in the past.  I love Sally Field and remembered she was guess starring and turned it on but 1/2 hour into the show.  But now I'm lost!  What happened to Sam? And is Luka leaving?
Do you use one of those pc fans ?....
I would love to be in sun, hear the birds chirping away and still be able to work.

Thank you for responding. I appreciate it so much..
They do have fans but ....sm
I heard that it is good to also have the ones they make to go under the laptop. The laptop sits on it and plugs into your USB port and it runs that way.
I hate to use mare's urine - think of the poor horse! but
it's the only thing that works for me. I have tried the *natural* stuff and ended up with either a bad tummy ache or nothing at all. It's the night sweats that I can't handle. Every night waking up drenched, unable to sleep. The doc convinced me it was a quality of life issue and basically, I wasn't having any, so I'm back on the very lowest dose. I hate it because of the horses and it doesn't cut out the hot flashes completely, but it helps.

The drug companies are too worried about men not being able to keep a hard on to explore the comfort of women. This research crap they are always handing us is just that, crap. They are looking for the big bucks. period.

computer fans
I had a noisey fan on my computer, filled with dust. Computer tech told me every month to dust the back of the tower and make sure that the fan does not have dirt/dust on it. He did this with computer unplugged and then he took a little vacuum and vacuumed the fan off of dust. Of course if you have cats in the house or dogs, that makes it worse. Hope this might help you as a simple solution, otherwise needs to be replaced.
Any Big Brother Fans?
Missed tonights show - who got evicted?
Any Starting Over fans?
Season 3 started yesterday - but I'm afraid I only watched season 1. Anyone hooked on this show? I loved the first group of women - except for Nyanza!
Any Nip/Tuck fans out there??nm

Hey, Steelers fans!

Check out this link - wierd but cool 


 


GO STEELERS!!!!!!!!!!


Any fans of The Office ?
Can I just say that I LOVE this show!!! I think it is so funny and well-written. Steve Carell is perfect in that role, and all the characters seem to be perfectly cast. You gotta love Dwight! This is my favorite show to come along in quite a while! My husband and I both laugh out loud, and not too many shows do that to you anymore.
