great website sm
Saw this advertized on TV tonight. Looks like it would be helpful to us!
great website - thanks - sm

But I have got to say that my entire family (father was in the biz) colored their hair with L'Oreal and lived until they were OLD...dad died at age 97 and colored his hair too until his late 80s  *l*


And then - there's this other thing in my mind - we all have to die from something - nobody who gets to be in the senior population is getting out of this life without a diagnosis of some kind, usually.  So, I'm going out looking fabulous....just as my mother did. 


But thanks for that terrific website - I bookmarked it....


Great website

I use this website more than I use my Quick Look Drug Book!


  


Great website
Its 1am so will have to read more tomorrow when I'm more awake. I had heard about chemicals from computers, but thought that was only occuring when people are making the computers. I have a flat screen monitor and it's suppose to not emit the same stuff as regular monitors do (sorry, can't think of all the names of the things right now).

It's funny I came across this post because today DH told me about how TVs are emitting chemicals or something that are making people "numb" or something like that. I'm trying to find more info about that.

Thanks for the website
math.com is another great website
.
The website someone posted below is great....
I just wanted to say I think it is great you are going out of your way to make something for this person so they don't feel left out. I am veggie too, and my stepmom always make something that I can't eat when I come over. I end up having to eat green beans, corn and a roll or something. It burns me up.
Another great grocery saving website...s,
is www.thegrocerygame.com.

I save a great deal of money on brand-name foods using this method of combining coupons with sales. I have even gotten free items, such as a bar of Neutrogena face soap and mustard and even a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.

There is a cost of about $5 a month, but if you sign up friends, etc., you can get free weeks. Check it out! :)

Found a great eponym website! sm

This has been helpful to me.  I thought I'd share for those of you who haven't already discovered this website.


Hope it is helpful.

Great website for drug slang terms

Some of you might remember that I'm working for my BIL doing chemical dependency training videos (transcribing them).


Well, I came across a term that I'm unfamiliar with.  I did a websearch and found this website.  Thought others might find it helpful so decided to post it.

Happy MT week!

See inside for a great website for using ShortHand/Speedtype.
http://www.productivitytalk.com

Go to forums and scroll down to commands/glossaries/dictionaries then ShortHand Commands. Hope this helps.
great website for credit and credit cards, interest rates
great website
Dang! I cannot see them:(
nm
dang,,, I mean CTL-F10
x
Dang, don't apologize ;-)

Like far out, man..LOL.  Awesome resolution on both of them (of course I had to save them to my docs, too)   The second one looks like a Peter Maxx drawing, dontcha think? 


Thanks for sharing...really need a peace sign here, dang it...oh, no wink either *sigh*


dang, so mad cant even spell right lol
f
Dang..I can't even spell it!
I am used to working in Microsoft Word.  Is this platform a lot different?  I am wondering how my productivity will be.
Dang!! I Just Threw One Away!!
I just had mine croak a couple of months ago and threw it away. I never thought about keeping it to use for spare parts. I had a heck of a time finding one just like it. I finally ended up ordering it from Amazon because the ones at Staples are the newer model with the humongous wrist wrests.

So sorry. I hope you get it up and running again. I absolutely love mine.

dang...I can't type 210 lph (m)
I wish I could. I've been watching the topic by the OP for ideas on how to get my speed up. Where I live $17 an hour is an amazing amount of money. Last time I worked in house I only made $13/hour and that wasn't that long ago. Thanks for your input! I have to decide by next week and I keep changing my mind.
Dang - I Can't Even Spell
nm
dang I suck!
LOL.  I have only had a job for the last 3.5 weeks.  Yesterday I hit 700 lines in a day.  Thank goodness I have no minimum.  But the first day I actually worked, I only hit 279 lines.  I get faster and faster everyday.  I also learned how to add things into the AutoCorrect option in MicroSoft Word, so that helped too.  I expect to be able to hit 1000 lines per day in another 3 weeks.  I also can only get in 5 hours during the day while the kiddos are at school.  If I choose to work in the evening I have to stop A LOT.  Part of the reason it takes me all day to hit 700 lines is that I hear words I am not familair with.  Or meds I have to look up.  I also go back and proofread all documents twice.  Seem I have no minimum requirement I can truly spend a little extra time on each document and be sure it the best I can do.  I know, over time, I will not to proofread every document over and over, but I am still learning.
that's too funny! And you figured out what he was saying...dang

DANG, didn't work
x
DANG, I already erased it from my DVR. I could have told ya for sure.
can't wait to hear, I'm sure it's only RUMOR though!
Well, dang. I missed it. What was the big yank? nm
nm
Dang, I had that problem before but don't remember how to fix it.
I will check around to see if I can find out again.
dang! WHAT husband?! I should light a candle...
!
Dang, I didn't know there was one with a "zoom" button (sm)
now I have to have one of those!

:-)
dang, that is the wordiest article I've ever read. nm

I had all those dang ages in my auto correct before. The whole 90-year-old expansion. nm

Dang Lucy's got a good idea. Now why didn't I think of that because I've been experiencing





Saw him on CMT show with John Fogarty. Great, great singer with a neat personality and drop dead
gorgeous without seeming to know it. 
Great post. I swear by both Advantage and Frontline Plus-- both work great! - sm
I don't know about "natural" approaches for the house. I have always used flea bombs in the past before the miracle of Advantage and Frontline changed my life. Have not had a flea problem at all since I began using those products about 10 years ago, dose all the dogs religiously once a month with the Frontline Plus except in Dec.-Feb. to save a few bucks and because the ground is generally frozen by then and no fleas are scurring about. -- Hope you get flea free soon.
Thanks to all. Got some great feedback and ecouragement. This board is great.
My rant passed, ate a late lunch, now back to the trenches.
GREAT GREAT SHOW! I still think Ellen Pompeo
should have gotten the Emmy/Golden Globe whatever it was for the show. I like Sandra Ho, her character just needs more depth... Next week looks AWESOME!! Maybe there is still a chance for McDreamy!! First season DVD coming out with deleted scenes! Can't wait to get it & watch it!!
It is a GREAT company and great deal! I've had
Vonage about 6 months now and I love it. The only mistake I made was trying to keep my original phone # - I wouldn't recommend that. You have a temp # for a while, and the other provider can fight for the old #, etc. Go to vonage. com. They have new features all the time! There is even a new soft phone that is a phone on your screen. You don't need a real phone when working - just headset. It has 800 #s you can have very inexpensively - great voice mail. You get emails when you have new messages, etc. I only wish I had used them a year ago! Nothing but good things to say, and I complain about everything!
Sounds like he will do great then. Again, best wishes for great success!

That's great Patti. Thanks. Have a great time at the beach.

You should feel great as a transcriptionist if they think your work is that great!!!
It is not your fault they approached you. I think it would be a different storey if you were the one searching for the job to take away from a company. They obviously want to get rid of the company and if you didn't take the job they would probably ask someone else. You should enjoy the better position and not feel guilty!!
Great post -great job of wording your answer! (sm)
Original poster - I completely agree with this answer, especially the part about finding yourself and using all that you have learned intellectually and connecting that to something that you will also enjoy with your heart!! You have so many wonderful options for your future - much more than many of us.
IT - great program, great support system. nm

Thanks for all the great advice! You guys are great!

Do you have a website for yours?? nm
..
What new website
I must live in the dark. I don't know anything a new website either.
I don't know about the new website either
This is all very frustrating.  I have gotten no letter and no e-mail regarding any of this.  Anyone that can provide details would be appreciated. 
MQ Website
If your on the DEP platform, you should be on i-mail.  If not, go to www.medquist.com, register, then you can access the QNet...side bar has all the latest and greatest.  We got the email last week, then I got my snail mail copy Saturday...but, only a paragraph or 2 on the new pay plan...but my take was the real issue they wanted to get out is to preserve ALL documents at ALL costs for the upcoming legal battle in court
But their website says...

They value their transcriptionists! And websites don't lie.


Which website?
//
website
I sometimes use www.rxlist.com
www.mayoclinic.com
and
www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo

Hope this helps.

What is the URL of their website?
If enough of us visit the website and state we would not use their service after reading what has happened to you... You might, just might, get a different tune from these people????
They said on their website that...sm
the pet(s) would be brought to you. I was also wondering the same thing until I read that on the website. I'm thinking they don't want people from 50+ states going down there for safety reasons, and maybe for congestion reasons. (There's alot of animal lovers out there!)

The website is up again now, and the picture of the frightened dog I was talking about is on there too. http://www.bestfriends.org/

Gosh, I know they are so busy, but I'm anxiously waiting to see if I can be a foster parent; so worried about those furry friends. It seemed time was of the essence for some of them, and that was yesterday a.m. I want to go down there and get them so bad. I just may have to do that if I don't hear from them.

Thanks for allowing me to get OT.
Wow! Thanks for the website. sm

I didn't forget.  Never will.


I had my tissues out.  What made me really lose it was Lee Greenwood's song.  It was 13 years ago when my daughter was only 10 years old and her dance class used that song in a dance recital and they all did sign language while dancing.  Everyone in the audience was in tears or close to tears.


When 9/11 happened, we had no cable TV.  We did manage to get the local PBS station in and watched in horror.  We had just moved into our house.  We had a flag, but no pole, so we went out about 6:00 p.m. that night with the younger kids and hung the flag from a branch on our tree in the front.  Within the next week there were flags at every house in our neighborhood.


I'll never forget.
