This is HEARSAY from media and/or Mrs. Twitty.

Posted By: Don't you know? on 2005-07-06
In Reply to: why would that come up, though - ed

You all quote media as if it should be written in stone.  Obviously not enough credibility to hold this guy in jail for suspicion.

    Hearsay.
    Who is your source?
    not hearsay
    Not all that has been stated is hearsay.  Watch the interview with the Aruban prosecutor, the Aruban spokesman and spokeswoman for the Aruban govt.
    You are repeating hearsay you know don't you. You actually know
    a little bit less than Mrs. Twitty and are going off halfcocked like her.  Why would this man be publicly shamed on what you heard someone else on TV said they heard?   Don't you know the man was released for NO EVIDENCE.  He was brought in for questioning, that's all.  Really, you sound as hysterical as Mrs. Twitty in her press conference with no logic just ranting.
    actually i know nothing about the case nor do you. so stop this craziness. it's all hearsay leaked
    for you to get all worked up over hearsay about what this boy's father said when he has been released for lack of evidence and that's all you know for sure, that's crazy.
    Mrs. Twitty is used to getting her way
    and lovin the spotlight.
    Mrs. Twitty
    To all of you who are so judgmental of this woman, tell me, at what point do you pack it up and go home, leaving your daughter behind, God knows where.  Would you be able to get the thought out of your mind that she is alive somewhere and wonders why you stopped looking for her?
    Not Mrs. Twitty
    Amen - well said, and is EXACTLY the way it was in my house. You live here, I pay for the food, I pay for the roof over your head, I pay for your clothes, you damn well better follow my rules because this is MY house. There was no wearing of trashy clothes. I raised 3 by myself. No pregnancies, no drugs, good kids, now responsible parents all of them, and raising their children the same way, except all of them are raising their children in the church which I didn't because I worked on Sundays. They all were offered the $ value of a cruise and took the money for down payments on cars. And yet, as tight as I raised my kids, I wondered where in the heck did they get their brains at times. I let my children go when they were comfortable going. None of them have come back home because it "didn't work out". They have all been married over 15 years. You have to have faith in your children but that doesn't mean you need to be blind and give them opportunities to misbehave like that.
    Mrs. Twitty
    God forbid, it has to be horrible, but the country can't turn itself inside out and upside down because of her daughter's disappearance. SHE made the mistake of allowing her daughter to do this. A 17 and 18 year old is not an adult. Its been 36 (?) days. Sooner or later, you have to accept the reality that you may never know, instead of staying there demanding and demanding and go home to start mending. She is not the only mother that this has happened to whether in Aruba or other places. They move on, she needs to move on too.
    Twitty, etc
    None of you are paying attention. College and going into a well-known pick-up bar in another country at 2 a.m. by a teenager, by yourself are two different things. You can't keep your children protected all the time. College doesn't even come into play here. Parents NEED to instill values and NEED to look at ramifications and most of all, they need to understand that as soon as an uneducated child gets out of sight, they are going to cross the line. I would bet my last dollar that Natalee has acted up away from her parents before. This time, she was not so lucky. Sometimes I wonder what comic strips you people read. Who said anything about college? I SAID what kind of parent allows a 17-year-old girl on an unsupervised trip to a known "fast" island???? Do ya get it now?????
    I totally agree. Them not paying is NOT hearsay. It is fact so why let them scam hard-working MTs.
    SAY NO.. to their advertising. What a scam they have going.
    Adivse for Ms. Twitty
    I wholeheartedly agree with you. Here she is demanding that the Aruban and Dutch governments do this, do that, etc., yet, there was Shasta Groene's father not demanding anything like that from his own country, just quietly going about his business and doing what he could and probably doing a lot of praying. She's acting like a spoiled person. I feel very sorry for her and the loss is probably devastating, but you are in another country and when in Rome, ....... She is coming off as the very arrogant, demanding, and spoiled rotten American that we have all become, according to other countries. She is not helping the situation by her actions at all. She should follow your advice.
    what does Mr. Jug Twitty do for a living? And what about Jar, his brother.

    They are all staying in Aruba.  How can they take off of work indefinitely even if they aren't wealthy and took a second mortgage on their house. 


    PS:  I doubt very much a resort town is giving away free services to these people and their entourage.  This is how a resort makes money you know.  Especially when you are there criticizing their government and call citizens criminal who have been released from jail for lack of evidence.


    Holloway & Twitty Families
    I feel sorry for both of the families, but just because you want an answer doesn't make people guility because you think they are. Women disappear in the US ALL THE TIME and no one cares because they arent' young, blonde, and come from money. It doesn't make their lives less than Holloway's. She used bad judgment, her parents used bad judgment. Does anyone know of a 17-year-old girl who behaves "correctly" in an atmosphere like Aruba? They let their daughter go to a "foreign country" unchaperoned. They used bad judgment and now they are looking for someone to point a finger at to take the guilt off their backs. Holloway's mother has no right to throw a temper tantrum about the Aruban system. She's not in Kansas anymore!!! Said to say, but she needs to come to grips with reality.
    holloway and twitty famillies
    TO old TM, who is to say that natalle holloway used bad judgement, where you there? if you followed the story from the beginning, you would have known that there were chaperoned in that foreign country. I don't believe that her parent used bad judgement at all. Ana I think beth twitty has every right to point a finger, when all she is getting is a bunch of lies from the arubans, from day one.
    Why I believe Mrs. Twitty is writing the soap opera and starring in it too!

    Promoting her little dream of a soap opera with press conferences with her super glossy eyeshadow and false eyelashes.  Sweet.  How many opportunities does Mrs. Twitty get to get all this attention?  Might as well milk it.


    I pray that Mrs. Twitty gets off the TV, washes the makeup off and goes out looking for her daughter
    instead of playing private detective and second-guessing the people who are actually doing something. She is a nut case. Maybe Natalee is missing on purpose based on what I have seen of her mother, the DIVA. Mrs. Twitty, you are acting nit-witty and I pray you go about the business of grieving for your daughter instead of the roles you have chosen to play for the past few weeks as judge and jury of how a country should run an investigation into your daughter's disappearance.
    XP Media
    Might be the fact too that you are using XP Media and not XP Home or XP Pro
    Don't believe the news media (sm)

    You are so right.  Everything is going up but our wages and it's happening all over.  It is time for everyone to get their finances in order.  We are all going to have to tighten our belts and get our finances in order and get rid of credit cards! 


    i meant media
    nm
    Alert The Media
    Do you think you could draw the attention of the media for this cause? Maybe there's a spunky investigative report who would want to get the story out.
    Typical media; what do they know.
    nm
    it is a form of media ...
    for healthcare professionals.  It has a circulation.  It is readily available in schools.  All media matters because what is in the media influences the way people think.  I think it gives a negative view of us to those who call the shots over us who read it.  That's why I think it matters.
    media play dictation

    Anyone familiar with this?   My doc is dictating via internet.  It comes across on my media play and i can hear him but when i switch over to word there is no way to pause him from talking...........


    The media will contact the AAMT

    The AAMT will say the same old line about there not being enough US MTs. We need a good response for their lie.


    Windows Media Player
    Does anyone know if it is possible to use a pedal with the Windows media player? I am doing some test reports and have been unable to use my pedal to start, stop, and rewind. Without the pedal, this will take forever!
    It plays in Windows Media but..
    I first get a message that it is not a recognized extension.
    I'm not surprised that the media is trying to "spin" him into a hero
    but he's unqualified and unethical. The tourists that were there were able to pay him to let them out of there first, plain and simple. Once again, consider the source.

    Hero my foot.
    It's all part of the media's waging war on Christians
    They have now pulled out all stops and have no problem making us all look like a bunch of bible-banging hicks if we speak our minds.
    Help with taking test with media player
    Hi there....I have to take a test using Windows Media Player and I can't figure out how to type in Word and still be able to use the keyboard keys (no foot pedal yet).  If anyone could help it would be much appreciated.
    Microsft digital media keyboard
    I just bought the above keyboard.  I plugged into my dell computer and the functions like zoom in and out and my favorites do not seem to work.  I cannot find any directions other that what is in the box.    What am I doing wrong.  
    Media Player/DSS format questions

    This subject brings me to the problem I am having right now.  I have a WAV pedal program which my doctor and I just started using.  Going fine.  Then all of a sudden he changes his format and sent me a file with a WMA and it came up in the Media Player.  Oh, I saved the attachment in MY WAV files, but also have an archive file set up also.  It did not come up in MY WAV files, but thank goodness did automatically come up in the archive part in the Media Player, and I could not get it to work with my pedal either, so literally had to listen and stop, re-listen, and type, etc.  It took me 3 1/2 hours to do a 20 minute job!  I get so frustrated as I am not IS literate.  Now he has told me that he will be sending everything in DSS format and that I should go to a particular website and download so that I can get into it. Well he did not give me a model number, so cannot seem to get a download without it.  But this also makes me wonder where and how I should be setting up things to find the documents and where/how to save them.  Any tips are appreciated.  TIA


    Try this plug-in for Windows Media Player. sm
    It looks like the .dvf file is a Sony recorder file. You don't say why the file needs to be converted to .dss and I'm not even sure that you can because .dss is proprietary to Olympus. Maybe this plug-in will be of some help to you. Let us know.
    The MEDIA is owned by 5 mega corporations
    and they have an agenda almost if not more devious than certain politicians...

    Remember the MEDIA is owned by FOR-PROFIT corporations. Corporations like this have a LEGAL responsibility to make as much money as possible for shareholders. What does that mean? It means they choose sensational garbage over substance to "report" - and in the case of this so-called war, they BENEFIT the reads PROFIT directly and indirectly, so they purposely censor the information that gets in the way of true public awareness.

    If ANYone sincerely believes the media is our friend, they have not done their homework. Don't take my word for it: Google "who owns the media" and see any number of studies showing WHICH corporations own the major news corporation.

    GE make "bring good things to life" BUT they ALSO make bombs (WMD) - AND they own NBC. Connect the dots yourself, and consider asking your reps in Congress for legislation to clean up the media.

    Yes, there are crack reporters who are DYING to report the truth, but they are EDITED out by their supervisors who follow the agenda of the corporate bosses.

    The facts are out there if you look for them.
    I got a Microsoft Digital Media Pro keyboard - sm
    at Office Depot... not very expensive, (maybe $39?), and it has a great feature... a little lever off on the left side of the keyboard that if you want the letters to appear larger, you push it up, and smaller, you push it down. Only takes 1 finger. I LOVE it! :)
    I would reverse the media player back
    and see if that corrects the problem. If so, you might either decide you don't need the upgrade or contact Windows about a fix...

    Make sure your plug is all the way in - sometimes it looks like it is but isn't seated.

    Just do a restore to the day before you did the upgrade - or if you are uncomfortable with this uninstall the software and test your headphones...

    just a thought.

    No, you cannot use a foot pedal with Media Player.
    Try downloading Express Scribe; it's free.
    If it is a windows media audio file just .....sm
    drag it into your open gear player box. You should be able to play the windows media file there, and use your foot pedal.


    Will the file play in Windows Media or QT? ..nm

    Windows Media Player and Foot Pedal

    Does anyone have a simple solution to hooking up a VEC footpedal so that it works with Windows Media Player to stop and start?  The VEC hooks into a USB port on the computer and has 3 pedals, rewind, forward, and type. 


    XP Media SP3 download w/DocQscribe conflicts, help needed

    Can someone please advise me on any issues they have had with Windows XP Media Service Pack 3 download with DocQscribe.  I know of several MTs who could not work for days, after installing service pack 3, and tech support could not help them either.  I have not downloaded this yet because of this issue and need information about this prior to downloading it.  I was told their F command keys still do not work either.  TIA

    Just as a note, Windows Media player will NOT work with a footpedal.

    Unless there's some voodoo magic out there that I'm not aware of.


    Flashdrive question versus Windows Media Player
    There are 32 files on this flashdrive.  I use a Stop/Start pedal.  In using my pedal, I have done all of the files but four.  Four of the 32 files show a length of about one hour each, but you cannot hear anything.  However, if you open this up in Windows Media Player, you can hear him talking.  What do I need to do about this?  I can't type using Windows Media without my pedal, and why do you think I can't hear just four of the 32 files with my Start Stop pedal?  This is a new thing for me and please pardon my ignorance, but I could really use your advice as soon as possible.  You can email me and thank you kindly.  Lisa
    Hmmm.....I read somewhere about seeing if you can play the files in Windows Media Player....sm

    because Media Player downloads proper codec "on-demand" and this is apparently needed to play .wav files in Express Scribe (read this at their website).  Can you play any other types of files?  


    Pedal won't work with Media Player, download Express Scribe. nm
    x
    you need to change your properties of those file types to open with ES and not media player. sm
    go to your folders by start, explore. find where you saved those files to. once you find a file, right click on it and click on properties. under the general tab, look down 3 lines to where it says open with and i bet it says media player. click change, find the express scribe program. make sure you check that box under there that says always use this program to open this type of file. then you can either right click again, click open with, select express scribe and it will automatically load in ES or you can hit the load button on ES, find where the file is saved, select and it loads it. if this doesn't work, email me.
    Does anyone know how to adjust the speed of a Windows Media Player for testing purposes? nm Thanks
