Check your local police station, that'd be the place to look.

Outrageous. I just forwarded to a local radio station in my area. Who else can we send this to?

Local radio station is giving away American Idol concer tickets. sm
They're running a contest for 2 free tickets. With the entry, you have to list what you would be willing to do in exchange for these tickets. The best/most original idea will win the tickets. Any suggestions? It has to be something the person would really be willing to do. I really want these tickets!!

Contact their local police dept with serial numbers.
You can report this as theft of property and have warrants issued.
Or, add the current value (when you sent the equipment to them) to their earnings statement at the end of the year so they must pay taxes on it and write it off your books as payment for services.
Check at a local nursery/garden center for varieties that are bred for your area, then check online

Get a custom build from a local place.
I don't know about the Macs compatibility though. I had my computer custom built through a local place and am so glad I need. My kids have done things to this computer that no one has ever seen or been able to quite figure out how they did it but the local placed fixed me right up and they keep companies of all my program disks in case I have a complete crash and need to reformat the beasts. They also custom built an HP laptop which I love, love, love.
Can buy scrubs anywhere and then take them to a local T-shirt/banner monogramming place. nm

Check with your local phone company....sm
More and more phone companies are offering fast access DSL which works through your phone line. Satellite is very expensive and often has problems when there are storms. I had cable which also goes down practically every time it rains. I just got Bell South Xtreme DSL. I can't believe how fast it is. AND I got a wireless network router so if I have 1 computer or 20... no extra charge. All this for about $50.00 a month.
Check out your local community college -SM
I can't speak for all of them, but the one I went to offered externship programs and job placements for their best and brightest students. An acquaintenance of mine also got her MT training at a local college, and they did the same thing. Be careful, however, of the online courses. They cost a lot of money - much, much more than your local college, and you won't get the hands-on training or be able to get your questions answered in a flash with them as you would in an actual college setting. Also, an associate's degree at a college is much more impressive than admitting you received your training via an online course. That, to me, just sounds so "fly by night." 
Be sure to check your local emergency services regarding 9-1-1 sm
Just saw a news story that 9-1-1 is not set up yet on these systems to pull up the home address with the phone call. Just an FYI.
transcriptiongear.com is a geat place to check, too. nm

Check around your local area for clinics or transcription companies
That's what I did. I first started out working for a very small MTSO and worked at their office for a couple of weeks and then they moved me home and I started working on a single speciality account. I'm still working for the office after 5 years (altough the MTSO closed her business).
Check into adoption through local Catholic services, fees in our state (Ky) were based on income and
although expensive, not as bad as private adoption. Still, a long wait, we were told.
Request that they place a stop payment on the check, reissue, and mail priority or overnight mail
If they refuse or invent unbelievable excuses, you'll know you have a problem. If MY check was a week late, there are many months I would be in deep trouble.
I realize checks occasionally do get lost in the mail. If they are 100% sure it was mailed, then they shouldn't mind issuing another.
Be firm and be persistent.
Buy local. The local stores pay taxes to support your city and state. (SM)
Using online and catalogues does nothing to promote the local economy. We complain about outsourcing and about the big companies gobbling up all the work so the jobs at local hospitals are gone, yet we do the same thing when we buy on ebay, catalog, and these web sites that may be located any place in the world as their primary business location.
It's the only place I have ever lived.. Great place to retire or raise a family. Low crime rate e
living is pretty easy here. Low stress..
I went local. Great local tech support, they know what I do and were able to set it up just for me
:)
ARGH.. Have you gone to the gas station lately
or to the grocery store. Do you have a clue what your utilities are going to be this coming winter and WORK FOR LESS. YOU ARE BONKERS
It's slow everywhere right now. But, we have to man the station.

Lanier station
not sure where to post this, but I have a complete Lanier 219 station that I am going to sell. Any offers will be considered.
Went to the Prometric Testing Station
I took my CMT exam yesterday. It took almost 4 hours and was one of the hardest tests I've ever taken. The test gets all done and it just says that you've "passed" and will be getting your certificate and pin "in the mail." Couldn't they have the screen show a display of fireworks or flash "CMT, CMT...." at you.
And I really want to know what I scored. I know they can't give me the answers to particular questions because other people will be taking the test, but at least give me a number so I know if I'm really good or just okay. I'm obsessive that way I guess. I've been looking up everything I was unsure of, and I've only found one question I missed for sure, but I know there are stupid mistakes. And I know I'll be waking up at night in a cold sweat remembering something else I need to look up. Okay, I've finally gone nuts. 
Lanier Remote Station
Can anyone send me instructions on how to program an older Lanier remote transcription system? I think it is an LX-128? I just don't remember. I took my out of the closet to see if it works and have lost my instructions. Everything is all plugged in and works. HOwever, I get a double tone and not a dial tone. I remember having to program it but it has been sooooooo long ago. Any help would be appreciated.

Pumping gas at full service station sm
I did this to put myself through college for my associate's degree. It was horrible in the middle of winter - kept me focused on my studies however.
Call the news station in your location
who handles this sort of complaint. Once you contact the media, you will be paid immediately. Good Luck!!!
I just did my part - sent it to nearby news station.

Philips Transcription Station and Vonage
Years ago, I used a Philips Digital Transcription Station to get my MT work. It would plug into my landline jack and then I could dial in to get the jobs to transcribe. This week, the machine has returned since I am trying to help out someone with their work. Unfortunately, I no longer have a landline. I switched to Vonage over the summer. When I try to connect, it dials the phone number, I hear the computer voice that tells me to enter my ID # and then when I do that it is supposed to validate my number and show me the available jobs. It starts the validating process but then times out and hangs me up. Has anyone had problems like this and if so have you been able to fix it.....help please!!!
Lanier station with Comcast Digital
I have used this for quite some time with no problems. I have also used a C-phone and Voice Solutions Digital Workstation with Comcast and it works just fine. The only thing you may have a problem with is having dictation cut out periodically or what sounds like "choppy" dictation (and this occurs VERY rarely) and all you have to do is disconnect the phone lines and power from the back of the device you are using, wait a few minutes and plug back in and it should work. Other than that, NO problems!
Voice Solutions DA-128 transcribe station help
Anyone know how to set the M1, M2, and M3 phone number memory buttons on this? Thanks!
The position varies from place to place..
Sometimes you end up doing VR, which can be really easy or a real pain. Sometimes you end up simply editing files and all is good. Other times, you end up with more job responsibilities and hours than you ever wanted. All in all better than typing LOL.
Lanier station w/Comcast digital voice
Will this work? A couple of years ago I tried a Lanier with Vonage and it didn't. I don't want to go through the setup trouble only to be disappointed again. I really need more minutes than my 5000 per month with Qwest. Has the technology changed to make the Lanier compatible with internet phone service? Thanks if you can help me. 
Need Lanier ExWriter to test. Will VDI station or C-phone work or can I rerecord?
I am unfamiliar with the Lanier ExWriter. Can somebody please fill me in? I have a C-phone, VDI station, a call-in system with L.E.E.C.H. capabilities that can download work onto my system from another, or rerecord equipment. Can you access files from call-in systems like you can with a regular telephone and C-phone? How is the sound quality? I am not to thrilled with the .dss or WAV files.
Thanks!
I have used a Digital Transcribe Station from Transcription Gear in lieu of a C phone just fine nm
police?
imagine speaking about a topic, and having the police pick out one item and not have a thing to say about the topic itself. Must be interesting to just watch out for those mispelt words, and have nothing else to say. Must work for my old company. Everyone else is wrong - and you say nothing so you cannot be caught lol.
Police scanner going 24/7. Fun! nm

If there is a police report, that should be all they need -sm
I am going though this too right now, was T-bone, other person ran a red light and they were cited. Their insurance has copped to fault but pushing to get me to settle for $350, really don't want to get lawyers involved but fear I may have to. Also wonder if any of our conversations have been recorded, the agent has never said they were though. I have contemplated settlement but have not agreed to it or any figure. Since our last conversation my back/neck pain as become more of an annoyance (its been almost 2 months since the accident now), 2 doctors told me there was nothing they could do and I was fine....muscular injury....now seeing a chiropractor which is helping, so in the meantime I have not done anything about "settling". You have 2 years by the way in most states. So take your time and be careful what you say basically. I have a knot at the back of my neck the size of a small egg that gets worse the more I work, not good, along with stiffness and minor discomfort. It took time to all come out, so with being rear-ended get checked out and don't believe everything they tell you. My 2 doctors I was less than impressed with, one handed out Vicodin like candy (I have taken 4 in 2 months and he tried to give me more when I called him back a week after the accident), the orthopedist said I had a neck curve but it was from the swelling and time would fix it. How much time? A week, a month, 2 years, what? No advice on how to try to heal myself, etc. Needless to say I don't need this crap on top of everything else, but I have lost work, etc. and it is now harder to work, so I am taking a wait and see approach at this point. Good luck in how you handle it.
police department right behind us
Funny thing is the police department is right behind us--they probably hear her--just kidding. Her ex-husband workes on the volunteer fire department housed in the same building as police. He has probably already told them all she is crazy!
Not the grammar police BUT

Hey, no more spelling police!

wow couldn't you call the police?
there are restrictions all over regarding barking dogs in our state and it doesn't mean just at night. of course i wouldn't want to be enemies with a neighbor who lives that close to me and is ignorant enough to leave the dog barking anyway. that is so awful.
That should be "can" - typo police. nm

This happened to me once. I saw 2 police cruisers,
a fire truck, and 2 ambulances in front of my house. I ignored it for a while but then my curiosity got the best of me and I went outside. It turned out my husband was in diabetic shock in the car in the driveway after having driven erratically all the way home. Someone reported his driving and the above all responded to our address.
My husband is a police captain.
He has 21 years on the force. He makes about $40,000.00 a year. I make less than he does. We do okay though. I used to make way more before offshoring ruined this business.
