4 states are taking refugees
The governor of Louisiana has asked four states to take refugees:  Tennessee, Texas, Oklahoma, and Utah.  I know Utah is scheduled to take 1000, starting to be flown in today (call the governor's hotline at 866-873-2437 if you live in UT and want to help), but I don't know about the others.  I would imaging they're taking more since they're closer.  This is being coordinated through FEMA, but the governor's offices of those other states probably would be of more direct help.  If you don't live in one of those states you could try to contact FEMA, but I imagine they're swamped right now.

He is okay, they actually have refugees
on their boat...they are west of the projected path of the storm and have a contingency plan if it decides to veer. Man, am I glad he called. Was working myself up to a regular tizzy!!!
This is how it is in Arizona
Welcome to an Arizona summer-- the electric meter spins itself off the pole and the utility companies dance with glee.  My AC went out a week ago (naturally on the weekend) and it was over 90 degrees in the house with the swamp cooler going full blast.  Come on, move to Arizona everybody----.  The Chamber of Commerce doesn't tell you about THIS part!
Don't come to Arizona
It is the same here-- and all the Calif. people ARE moving here-- making it that much worse. I want to get out of here, too.
YES IN ARIZONA
Yes
Would that be the one in Phoenix? nm

Phoenix
They don't pay for spaces. I've tried explaining to my thumbs why the work they do has no value in certain environments, but they refuse to understand & in general continue to prevent me from applying to a company that I've otherwise heard pretty good things about. If your thumbs are happy working for nothing, I'd say go for it.



Phoenix
I would recommend ANY company to work for - except Phoenix. Their website is bogus - nobody makes $25 an hour. They'll toss you a book to hook up your computer - and when you're having questions - you'll get an attitude when you ask for help. Horrible, horrible!
Phoenix

I have been with Phoenix MedCom for 1 year now and they are a great company. I work on an internet account that does not pay for spaces.  We have a new platform with another account and this does pay for spaces.  I tried both platforms and it works out to exact amount of pay, 10 cents without spaces and 8 cents with spaces.  DG


Arizona fires
You all have probably seen the horrible Arizona fires on TV.  I can see the smoke and flames from my house-- and could be in its path if the wind changes.  There is a meeting at the high school tonight regarding fire info.  Even though I am SO tired of doing transcription, I would much rather be home doing it than attending a fire meeting--.

Phoenix MedCom
I have been with this company as an IC since they started over 5 years ago and before that I worked with these same owners at another company which was bought out by Medquist for over 6 years. Phoenix Medcom is a great place if you are loking for an IC position.

University of Phoenix
I did some checking several years ago and I found from my research that University of Phoenix was the one with the most prestige as far as on-line degrees.  You have to be careful, because some of the places offering these are not worth the paper they are printed on, to an employer.  But, I found that UOP actually is the *best* of the on-line universities.  I didn't enroll, but I seriously considered it.  It is extremely expensive and I've heard from someone I know who was a student with UOP, that it is challenging (she worked a full-time job in addition to her classes), but she really loved it.  Unfortunately, I've lost touch with her now and I have no idea if she ever finished and got her degree.

Phoenix Medcom

I haven't ever heard of this company before but they had a posting in the job bank.  I'm wondering if they are worth my time applying for.  I have a job, just looking for extra to do.  Anyone's experience would be appreciated.  Thx!


University of Phoenix!!! LOL
Duh- yeah!
Phoenix MedCom
The co is Phoenix MedCom

A $300+ bill is typical for us in Arizona. sm

We use the payment plan so our bill is the same every month. They average all 12 months and come up with a month payment.  Our winter bills usually would be as low as $70 if we weren't on the payment plan.


Can't live here without AC - no way, no how.


PHOENIX MEDICAL TRANSCRIPTION

PHOENIX medical transcription.  Any information good/bad???


Thanks


I'm referring to Phoenix Medcom
They sent me a lot of info when I inquired & were very specific: they pay per 65-character line, with headers & footers, no spaces.

Just wondering if any of my old classmates come to this board. Thanks
I loved Arizona - I lived in Tucson....sm

Sedona, Arizona is awesome this time of year.

I'm in the metro Phoenix area and we were in the mid 20s last night. That's cold for us!!...
I had to cover my frost sensitive plants with sheets.
No way. Univ. of Phoenix is considered a joke by employers!
http://uopsucks.com/negletters.html

The best way to obtain an on-line degree is to attend an accredited university that was already well-known for its academic program way before the internet was invented.

Check out University of Massachusetts, Temple University in Philadelphia, University of Minnesota.

The fly-by-nights like U. of Phoenix are the equivalent to the crap that used to advertise "degrees" on the back of matchbook covers and have no credibility in educational and career circles.

Seriously, stick with an accredited, well-known school, not some bogus piece of crap like that.

You get what you pay for.
Would you walk three blocks in 110 degrees at 3 p.m. in Arizona - no trees, no breeze, no wet SM

except for sweat.  It's brutal. 


Now is 110 and supposed to get hotter.  Yesterday was 113 in the shade

medical abbreviation list and medical drug list
Hi,

Anyone there who could help me out finding the latest abbreviations list.
I even want the latest drug list because my current program does not have many drugs.

So if anyone could suggest anything which is available online for informationd quick look purposes.

any help for medical abbreviation list and medical drug list would be very helpful.

LOL Thank you for taking that well -- I think
after I posted that I realized it might have sounded uptight. LOLOLOL

I just meant it to be a little more information than what the other person was giving -- which really gives an unfair picture!

Thanks!
Why are they taking anything? nm
:]
Yes, I will be taking him to the Dr.
tomorrow. He still has a couple more warts on his foot that the burning didn't seem to do anything to. I'm sure the doc will want to go ahead and remove them now. As for his toe, I'm sure it will have to heal before they can do anything to treat the wart..if it still remains. I want to make sure that the wound that was caused gets the proper treatment as I am quite concerned about infection at this point. Thank you for your advice. He's a real winner, eh?
I am taking out 20% of my pay
This is my first year being an IC. My accountant told me this should be enough based on what my husband's salary is. I will find out at the end of the year if I need to take more, less or the same. Good Luck.
What are you taking
Whatever it is, I want to ask my doctor about getting some. Its hard to be optimistic when you have to work so darn hard to make a living. I currently work two of these jobs just to make one decent living. Companies make it awfully hard to make more than 15.00/hr. I can't make it on that.
Could you try just taking on one to see how you like it?
Maybe do the part time vet so the work load wouldn't be too bad right away. I think it sounds like a great change of pace!
When I was still taking my course...

we only had one computer so I did all my practice reports on that one.  I had made up a few shortcuts in word and one was *be* for barium enema.  Didn't give it a thought until I was reading a paper my son had written and gotten back from the teacher and the phrase *barium enema* caught my eye.  No remarks from the teacher, so I don't know if she caught it or not.  BTW, the paper was on torture in the Middle Ages, so maybe the whole thing wasn't so far fetched!


not taking job seriously
I guess we all must have that problem. You know what is bad? When your husband doesn't even take your job seriously. My husband makes me feel like this isn't a real job. I am called lazy on a regular basis because all I do is sit at a computer and type all the time. That isn't work according to him. Well I told him you sit there for hours and type and see if you don't get tired. Plus not only do I do the MT work but all the housework because my husband thinks my job is so easy that he shouldn't have to help with anything. So tell me how some of your husbands take your job?
