I always watch the Plastic Surgery epidoses with Dr. Jan Adams who narrates the different procedures profiled. Anyhow, he was explaining how some patients are more susceptible to keloid formation, and in the subheadings where they type these words, they had it as "keyloid"  It just struck me as funny, being a medical show and all!

Discovery Health Channel has a show Sat and Sun a.m.
that are good for CECs if you watch the show then take a test on line on the website. I have a bunch of them recorded but haven't watched them yet, too busy! I may disagree with how the organization formerly known as AAMT is doing things, but I am proud to be a CMT and aim to stay that way!
Wow, on Discovery Channel - Preg woman delivering suffers leak of amniotic fluid into mom's
mom having an allergic/anaphylactic reaction.
Heart can't push the goo through.
Body went into shock.
She couldn't breathe.
Her blood began to clot.
Docs did emergency C-section in 6 minutes.
Then mom went to cardiac arrest.
Then another catastrophic thing happened.
Paula began hemorrhaging massively from every part of her body....from eyes, ears, nose, every incision, every bump and bruise. All her blood clotting factors had been used up.
Docs poured blood clotting factors into her.
The baby's chances of survival were at 50/50.
Mom was then noted to have unusual swelling in upper abdomen.
Surgeons reopened c-section.
Astonished to find 1 gal of clot-filled blood. With the clots removed, her blood quit clotting.
Of the 10% of women who survive, most are brain-damaged. Only 1% survive without any damage. She turned out to be in the 1% luckily.
A day later she was holding her baby and was OK.
=========
All this started with her first labor pain of her second child. It was the leak of the amniotic fluid into her blood stream that caused her to immediately start to feel like her throat was "closing up" and she couldn't breathe (anaphylactic allergic reaction). She passed out pretty quickly.
Ok, Six Feet Under fans, did you catch it last night?
I'm sad.
Discovery
Landed in California without any problems.
Did Discovery land safely?

I've seen the one on HBO, but there is another 2 parter on Discovery
I haven't seen that one, but my son told me there were a lot of things on that one that he hadn't seen before. I'm going to watch for it, but I don't know the name of it.
Pretty cool. I'll be looking forward to a Discovery program about this. nm

I saw HOWIE last night on a late night episode of Blind Date. too funny.
I'm thinking if they are smart they'll boot Rachel. I think she's really smart and a good player. I don't think Howie is all that smart or able to be a winner. I think this could force Howie to hook up with James to go for the final 2.
A and E... I love that channel. NM

Is anybody else out there addicted to the TV channel A&E?
 I love watching all the crime shows, City Confidential, Cold Case Files, all of them!!
According to the wedding channel..
(from the site):
It is now acceptable for female guests to wear black to weddings, especially in the late afternoon and evening. Black choices, however, should be more ornate than reserved, to give off an air of celebration rather than mourning. Sometimes, adding a little color (vibrant flower pins and scarves work wonderfully for weddings) rounds off the somber look well.
What channel? What Time?? Thanks! nm

E channel also reported this. nm

when was this on, what channel? I missed it? nm

You surely have more than 1 channel on your TV, right?
Well, then why don't you use it? If you like Sylvia, then watch and if not, surely you know how to change your channel or is your remote too far away from your easy chair? My goodness, some folks will like and follow her, nothing wrong with that as there is nothing wrong with someone who does the opposite. I don't think she is anyone's mom that you know so you DON'T HAVE TO LISTEN TO HER. Tune her out!! Get a life.
The channel was CNBC for the CTS/RSI story
It really was interesting.
Maybe you can contact the shopping channel. nm

P.S. Channel some energy into agility classes
perhaps! Sounds like a great candidate if he/she can jump and get your sunglasses! Lots of classes for agility in most areas, and lots of fun for dog and owner, not to mention exercise! Woof!
What news channel? I have to use my debit as a credit at stores and such. NM

Call "The Dog Whisperer" - Cesar Millan on Nat'l Geo channel!?!?! nm
..
Did anyone else catch the BS here other than me? how could you sm
bill on a gross line and pay on a 65-character line. that is just plain old dishonest. not good business practice in my opinion and cheating the MT who in the case happens to be your mom. how could you do that??? my suggestion would be to be honest and fair with you, your mom, and the office and do things in the normal manner. i hope that was a typo for your sake. GEEZZZZZZZ!!!! how many companies do cheat us all like that???
It's taco night! (again.....) We had taco pizza last night, southwestern chicken soup before th
Maybe I'll just have a salad.
AT&T will catch on if you use their plan a lot. SM
They will (1) dump you from their plan, (2) send you a $4000 LD bill (back charges and (3) send a fraud investigator to your home. Been there, done that.
Exactly, really can't catch when proofing as you go.
Think about it, you are thinking, listening, typing, foot pedaling, etc., too much going on at once. Not to mention other distractions. Really can't proof as you go, just doesn't work. You have to stop at the end to concentrate and re-read it to catch all the errors. Trust me, I do audits and find errors in probably 8 out of every 10 reports, some very small but still errors. These are most likely from MTs who proof as they go. I totally understand MTs are paid on production and don't blame them one bit for not proofing at the end! But then also should not expect a perfect report or state that proofing as they go works, cause it really doesn't. Ever hear of a writer say oh you don't have to proofread or edit my book before publishing because I proof as I go?!?! Just some food for thought. ; )
Thanks. I put this in Favorites to try when I catch a

You never catch up with oncology....
there is always different meds and procedures more than any other field I've done. I quit after about a year. Great experience but ya don't make the money.
Do you ever catch your typos?
there wages - ?
Good catch---
nm
I never heard of it. Will be sure to catch it.
NM
Oh, yeah...I catch your drift...sm
All the liberal media is going to show us during a Republican administration is the bad stuff
I agree. It seems like all of them want to play catch up on one day
then they expect you to have ALL of their work done within TAT when they went beyond the agreed lines per day.
Actually, spellcheck wouldn't catch it because
there, they're, and their are all correct spellings.
CATCH PHRASES ARE "AMAZING" - NOT!
It's time to move on from these phrases that I've heard ad nauseum from people who can't think of anything on their own.
"At the end of the day."
" . . . amazing."
" . . . awesome."
Anybody else?
yes, I did catch it;hence the haha you missed it
nm
ooh, i catch jealosy vibes lol

Hire my kid--he'll catch it for you! sm
He loves snakes. I don't care for them but we have lots around here too, especially in the spring when they are mating. I live in Illinois. They are regulars in my yard. The only thing he hasn't caught and brought home yet is a rattler. We've had hognose snakes, pregnant garter snakes, blue racers and regular garden snakes. He has a pet pine snake in my dining room. Hubby and I don't like them but he is the one who takes care of the them, buys the food, cleans their little homes, etc. My neighbor was once infested with blue racers and he went over there and caught them all and turned them loose. I bet there were 25 in the guy's garage. He made $50.00 for an hour's worth of work. He had a pregnant garter snake once that gave birth to 20 little babies the size of nightcrawlers and sold them to the pet shop for $3.00 apiece. He doesn't do it anymore and he only has the one snake now, but I learned a lot just from watching him. I've been told that a black rat snake living under your deck in the winter is the best mouse control you can have.
I notice that too. QA will eventually catch up to them.

i do it occasionally when needing to catch up; sm
as the other poster said, my production shows in the next 2 days though. i always keep a light on (not just a lamp). i have lots of dr. pepper. i usually do laundry so that every 45 mins or so i have to get up and fold another load and that keeps me awake. i avoid food as that will make me sleepy too. also do as the other poster said, don't surf the net at all as that makes me sleepy to. i stick to my work and knock it out as quickly as i can.
Scan through and hopefully catch mistakes as I go. sm
That don't pay me enough this day and time to proof every single word I type. Take our wages minus IC expenses and we aren't making much. I look at it like you pay for what you get sometimes. Now that isn't to say I don't care about quality as I do. I just proof as I go and try my best to catch it and be accurate but I do have 15 yrs exp and can usually tell immediately if I have made a typo. I may get a he or she mixed up here and there but no major errors in the report.
Yeah, sometimes I catch mess-ups...sm
when I go back through the report, and I say I am glad I proofread. LOL.
You guys are better than I thought. I was wondering if you could catch those, lol nm
:P
I get tendinitis too occasionally. If I catch it in time, sm
can avoid the trip to the orthopedist for the x-rays, exam, shot of Marcaine and big bill (ugh). He gave me stretching exercises to do every hour or two, and I take 3-4 ibuprofen (actually, Advil Liquigels -- it may be just hype but I do believe they work faster) if I have a flare.
Good luck.
And the result is like a Catch-22. Clients/MTSOs
so they turn to alternatives like offshore or VR. But they don't look far enough to see that the root cause of not enough experienced MTs is because the experienced don't want to stay in a sinking ship. I think they feel that using the excuse that lack of experienced MTs validates them turning to cheaper alternatives, which in turn, makes the ship sink even further.
Did anyone catch the show with Sandra Bernhardt?
Where she and Elizabeth had sort of a fight over politics. That was the best! lol
It's very easy. You'll catch on in a flash.
nm
Oops. worth OF catch up and wants it ASAP.
x
don't worry, they'll catch it. Probably take it out of your next short paycheck.nm
nm
It was a joke. The poster didn't ask anyone to actually do those things. If you can't catch
x
great post; hope your ideas do catch on.

It takes me three months, then I catch up and exceed the expectations.
Also, takes about three months to decide if you even enjoy the work, company structure and your team members. If not happy, change teams or if it just does not fit, change teams until you feel at home. Being worried about your performed, feeling somwhat discouraged and even temporarily anxiety ridden is not unusual traits of a conscientious employee and valuable employee, by the way.
I may even be able to proofread and catch spelling errors (interruptions)!
