Try putting your headset up in your desk drawer or up on your desk. SM
Make sure there are no cords hanging off your desk. I only had to lose one headset before I learned that that hanging cords just entice cats. The best thing to do is unplug your headset and put them away at the end of the day!
Were they physicians?

Need some help in choosing between 2 physicians
I had been to a neurologist who also does acupuncture and has pain clinic, have seen about 4 times. Just not really satisfied with his bedside manner, which is none, and do not want to stay with him. I last week was referred to another neurologist by my nephrologist and I really, really felt this physician was not only caring but did a good examination and I felt really good about seeing him. Ok, here is what I need. I want to stay with neurologist #1 as I have some pain issues going on that I want to try out the acupuncture with but I really want to have the 2nd physician for any neurologic concerns. Due to see #1 this next week for my first acupuncture. I need to write a note that says I will not use him as neurologist, only for the acupuncture treatments because if not, I cannot go back to #2. Any thoughts on what my note should say? Really appreciate the input.
Need some help in choosing between 2 physicians.
What I would do is keep neurologist #2 and ask him or her to refer you to a pain specialist and acupuncture. I transcribe for 3 neurologists, and if the patient wants to have accupuncture or needs a pain specialist, the neurologists refer the patients to someone else who is not a neurologist. I would not go back to neurologist #1.
I wish all physicians would explain to patients..
that although they are prescribing a medication which is primarily prescribed for XYZ, that is has also been found helpful in treating ABC. A friend of mine who had recent rotator cuff surgery was given a new script by his pain clinic physician for a chief complaint of increased pain. My friend looked up the medication on the internet, only to find that it was prescribed for depression. He was under the impression he was given a pain medication prescription. Needless to say, he expressed his displeasure to the physician regarding this and as a result, has lost trust in him and has left his practice.
I am using his book as a reference also. Thank you! nm

I don't think MB was being rude, I think it was a funny reference to
the true-life-drama "Texas Cheerleader . . . Mom" movie starring Holly Hunter a while back. No need to get upset.
Help on upgrading drug reference
Hi all,
I am seriously in need of upgrading my drug reference. I am still using Quick Look electronic 2004 and so many new drugs have been introduced in the past 4 years. What would you recommend?? I just checked the Stedman's site and really cannot afford that kind of money right now. Do any of you recommend a hard copy book that would keep me updated??? Thank you for any suggestions.
A link to the incident you reference...
... but I don't know the answer to your question.
http://www.typetechtyping.com/article.htm
(The offshore MT threatened to put UCSF patient records on the internet if she didn't get paid, and she e-mailed them some reports to prove she had them.)
The reference to "lifestyle" isn't about couplehood and cooking dinner after work.
It's a reference to the perceived increased promiscuity rates among homosexuals as compared to heterosexuals.
Don't flame me for that - you asked, I answered.
Just because there is a perception doesn't make it true, but it also doesn't automatically make it false either.
Yes, there are straight players and swingers. But there is a widespread perception that gays are more likely to be players and swingers.
if actual threats then report it; keep all records/emails/calls for reference

Get up from your desk....sm
for a minute, stretch, breathe deeply, and get a Red Bull (energy drink) from the fridge. Works like a charm for me. I'm exactly in your shoes and I've tried lots of things, but Red Bull and movement work the best for me. Good luck!
Let me tell you another 1 you can try if pig runs out
Love those zits, huge ones but when you have a chicken you have bought at the store where the feathers close to the butt have been plucked, sometimes you can still get stuff out of there, nice gooey stuff. Posted about my big furkid had to have his anal glands cleaned the other day- get this, veterinarian started and it squirted across the room. Said tell them next time so they could do it again- I almost told him to show me how it was done- he has no idea I like that kind of stuff. On an exhusband he started out with slight bump and by the time I got through it had his whole face swollen but OMG, he eventually had to have that lanced at doctors office. Heck, I missed out on that 1.

Not on his desk
IMHO he should not be allowed to put it on his desk. This is clearly violating the law that is stated in the article that says there is to be no promotion of religion. If he wants to attack the Constitution fine but in the meantime he is not setting a good example for his students by breaking the law and school policy.
Desk Set
My all-time favorite Katharine Hepburn-Spencer Tracy movie.
I went on quite a few runs...sm
We live in a part of the state that is very secluded and we were the only shelter for four counties. I took a LOT of animals over to the west side of the state (which is a good five to six hour drive one way...lol) after work or on the weekends to bigger shelters over there or to breed-specific rescue groups. I know the feeling all too well of wanting to save them all. It is really hearbreaking when you sit down and think about all the animals suffering in the world...makes me sick to my stomach.

No way my dogs could be on my lap or my desk sm
for that matter! One is a golden and the other is a cocker-that's 150 pounds of dog. The do lay on my foot though to keep it warm!

I have adult ADD. I suspected it for a long time, especially after our son was dxd in 7th grade. We're both on Strattera. I really don't know how much it helps my ADD, but I do know it helps my restless legs a lot. What I've been able to help most is the memory problem - like walking around the house with a wind-up kitchen timer if I leave the kitchen while I'm cooking - can't tell you how many meals I've burned.
The concentration thing is an ongoing problem. Right now I should be working, but I have to check the board before work, AND my email, AND the TV listings, etc, etc - Then once I get working I remember I forgot to hang up that towel, or forgot to get a cup of coffee, etc, etc, etc. It makes for a very long work day sometimes.
Whether or not you are dxd with ADD, you can use the same strategies to help, but, if my experience is common, there's no one thing that will help - Just keep trying out things and find out what works for you.
A River Runs Through It
Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs.
I am haunted by waters.
Eat out less. Really runs into money. NM

Your desk is GREAT! (sm)
I especially like all the photos stuck around the outside of the monitor. Good way to keep yourself looking in the right direction! (I'm lucky enough to have a million-dollar view out my window... that's the good news. But then I keep looking out my window at it. Hard to stay focused!) ;D
Are those your rings on the desk?
Too funny! I take mine off too (except wedding band) while working. My fingers swell and they hurt if I don't.
It give my cat the runs.
I usually just give him very little milk after I drink my cereal about once or twice a week.
The charge runs out
Your power goes out and you can't recharge it.
You have an accident and drop/damage it - you're instantly phoneless until you go get a replacement.
You can't remember where you left it, and don't have another phone to call it so it will ring and you can find it.
Yes, it runs in my families I got it from
my mother. My mother had high blood pressure all her life and never took any medicaments against it. Some people just have high blood pressure and taking medicaments might even do more harm than good. My mother is very healthy and now in her 60s.
I, too, do not take any medicaments, none.
Well, with his current predicament, I'm not surprised
Is he careless or just stoopid? lol
Current hairstyles..to RetroMT
I don't think it will be an easy task to find any beauticians like we had in the old days. I am really exasperated in my "do" I have been attempting to grow from very short style with the aid of a very expensive guy who states the style is coming along nicely. This is third time I have went to him and he says the style he is trying to do is "coming along" nicely. It looks nice one day, then the rest of the days, I am back to wearing one of my hats and/or wigs. I don't think I will continue much longer, too expensive just for what??
But I do know what style you are talking about, hope you can find someone that thinks that way. I don't recall if I had many of those

My current husband is just the opposite...
In the 8 years we have been married he has paid over $97,000 in child support for his 2 children. His youngest daughter is getting married (and will be giving up the rest of her child support) and the child support will finally end. There are dads and moms out there who do pay their support. I hope you all get the back money owed to you. My ex owes my 2 daughters between 20-25 thousand. I never counted on it in the first place and when it sporadically came in I was happy, kind of like a bonus every now and then.
current and past choices
Current: NCIS, Mad Men, Damages Past: West Wing, Will & Grace, M*A*S*H, Shark, Golden Girls
so with the current state of the economy
Banks aren't safe anymore...I think i would buy up lots of $100,000 homes and rent them out...since the forclosure rate is so high more people wil be renting. Then when the economy turns back around I can sell my property. Better than putting money in the bank!
okay, curious here -- what's the current temp outside
60 degrees inside, freezing fingers. headed for a steaming hot bubble bath, then back to work.
I have a *to do list* sitting on my desk
every day because I can't remember anything and I'm early 40s. :)

Demand that he runs Free T4/3 on you.
Free is usally not the lab sheet to check off. He has to write it. I would *demand* he runs labs again with Free T4/3.
That little touch of color at my desk
would be my hubby. He sure brightens my day.
I still haven't picked my jaw up off my desk. (sm)
I just got off a quick break and decided to watch this video that I was told would floor me. It certainly did. I knew our political system was corrupt, but I honesly had no idea "they" were this blatant about it.
This is well worth the several minutes or so it takes to watch. I didn't post this under either political board, because it transcends both the conservative and liberal spectrums. Maybe this should go under the prayer request board now that I think of it.
If it's happening there, it's happening everywhere. These "voices of the people" totally need a good smackin.

Should he be allowed to keep the Bible on his desk?
Apparently, it's just sitting there. He's not teaching from it.
A Mount Vernon science teacher said yesterday that he will refuse to remove a Bible from his classroom desk, despite his school district's order.
"Thousands of citizens in this community have built their lives on deeply held religious convictions, and it is for them that I stand today," John Freshwater, 51, who teaches at Mount Vernon Middle School, said in a news release.
The religious activist Dave Daubenmire, Freshwater's friend, acted as his spokesman yesterday. "This is not a religion issue; this is a free-speech issue," Daubenmire said. "He didn't take the Bible to read to anybody."
Mount Vernon Superintendent Steve Short said Freshwater's characterization of the events leading to the district order that he remove religious items from his classroom was "not entirely accurate," but Short wouldn't elaborate.
The district later released a one-paragraph statement saying that district officials don't oppose religion but are required "under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution to protect against the establishment of religion in the schools. As a public school system the district cannot teach, promote or favor any religion or religious beliefs."
Freshwater and Daubenmire believe that separation of church and state "is a fraud" and that the framers of the Constitution never intended it to be practiced the way it is today, Daubenmire said.
The district asked Freshwater last week to remove the Ten Commandments from the door to his classroom and remove the Bible from the view of students. About 3,900 students attend Mount Vernon schools. Mount Vernon is about 52 miles northeast of Columbus.
Freshwater took down the Ten Commandments but decided that being prevented from taking a Bible into the classroom was going too far.
In the past, Freshwater has taught his students about the "holes in evolution" and intelligent design, the theory that a supernatural power created complex forms of life, Daubenmire said.
"Would our government ask a follower of Islam to remove her burqa in order to teach school?" Freshwater said in his written statement. "Would we ask a science teacher to remove The Origin of Species from his desk merely because the origin of man has never been proven?
"I cannot with a clear conscience follow a directive that makes religion and the religious viewpoint any less credible by those who deem themselves more enlightened."
Freshwater wouldn't answer questions directly because of the likelihood he will file a lawsuit charging "viewpoint discrimination," Daubenmire said.
Daubenmire is the former London High School football coach whose district was sued in 1999 by the American Civil Liberties Union because he led his players in prayer at games, practices and meetings. The district settled out of court, and its insurance company paid the ACLU $18,000 for court costs.
Do you keep a candy dish on your desk?
What's inside it?
I have one on my desk, but it usually only has sugar-free gum in it. Boring I know, but I hate it when my kids get cavities and since they raid my dish all the time, I have to take precautions. I also don't want to tempt myself all day long with sugar. Sometimes I get sugar-free Werther's candy or sugar-free lemonade candy but those bags are so tiny they don't last long.
Who runs your life, the receptionist?
You don’t have to have one anytime. That decision is yours, not her's. If you never stepped foot in their office so what? I go when I want to go, not when someone tells me I have to go.
One more thing, the electrical current differnt, so
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Your current favorite shows to watch?
My #1 is biggest loser! I absolutely LOVE this show (watchin it now). it always makes me tear up so much! I love the inspiration of these people. oh i love it so much!!! At the end of the show I always feel like I know them and I'm so proud of them. haha
My other ones are My Sunday shows: Extreme Makeover Home Edition, Desperate Housewives and Brothers&Sisters
Monday The Bachelor
Tuesday Biggest Loser and Law&Order SVU
that's about it for the week!!
I can't understand my co's support desk people and they are in US. Or

putting a book on your desk is NOT pushy, however,
telling someone they cannot do so, IS pushing your opinions, now isn't it???? You ACLU anti's are the pushiest kind of people out there.
Deny Him now, but remember, eternity is a LOOOOOONG time.
LOL. It doesn't plug in. It runs on batteries.
It has some kind of sensor in it and it can only be used with certain books.
Definitely think it runs in families. Both parents, 1 sister
and I all have hypertension. I take 4 different meds with another one for p.r.n. use. My is pretty well controlled most of the time. The highest it got was 230/140.
Here is a great site that lists all current deals on CCs......
Use the drop down menu to search the different features. I have used it to find balance transfer deals, etc.
It just shows the current moral climate of our country...
you can advertise a site offeriing help to have an extramarital affairs but don't try to push anythig that has anything to do with morals or values such as church, God, taking personal responsibility, etc. Very troubling times indeed.
