What was the starting sound?

Posted By: BFM on 2007-08-22
In Reply to: me again, s/l shor chori II?? thank u - Deborah

Subject: What was the starting sound?

Is it a "sh" sound at the front?  Chiari starts with a K sound (Chiari II malfornation).  It could be Charcot-Tooth (full name Charcot-Marie-Tooth).  Was it a malfornation?

starting as independent contractor/need help!
Subject: starting as independent contractor/need help!

I'm going to be able to return to work very part time since my disability is getting a bit better.  I have an offer to work as an independent contractor, probably not making more than 12 grand per year.


This will be my first time being a contractor and I'm boggled after reading the IRS info on the site.  Do I need to file for a taxpayer ID# or can I just use my Social Security number?  I think I can wade through paying the taxes, etc, but may have an accountant do this initially.


Thank's in advance, Becca.
