In Reply to: My setup is working - Diane
It works!!! I have the foot pedal plugged into one USB port, my ergo keyboard in the other, and the wireless mouse plugged into the keyboard.
The technician that I spoke with made it very plain and clear that an external keyboard would not work with the Start-Stop pedal. HA!!! Just goes to show ya that you can't always go by what the technies say. If you want to know something technical, the best place to start is with a transcriptionist! Thanks again.

Thank you, Diane!
You understand what I am trying to say. It is a bigger issue than independent contractor versus employee to which I am referring. We transcriptionists did not choose to have our rates lowered over the last 15-20 years!
to diane in NY or other ICs
Really? if you are an IC for a company/service, they still considered as 'your' client? as far as stating what line rate we need, etc?
yep , jack and diane...nm

Tom was on Diane Sawyer and
she asked about Katie not being able to say anything while delivering. He said it is not true. The mother can say anything she wants, but others in the room are suppose to remain quiet out of repsect for the mother. After that idiots "claim to know it all about female hormones, etc." I hope Katie's hormones are raging so violently that she throws shorty out on his rear end!
Diane, thanks for the link!
This info is better than I had hoped for. I'm off to play with settings ...
Diane, I just do not know how I would have made it
had I been literally to where I could hear. I remember years ago during Cuba crisis when President Kennedy had show down with Russia- my mother called me at work saying to go to closest bomb shelter in case they started hitting the US, lived through the horrible 60s when so many someone being killed, Kennedy, King, Robert Kennendy - horrible times, so much so when I heard on news about NYC I hit the panic button, telling my husband (almost screaming) we are being attacked. He is not as old as I am and of course wondered what in the world is going on here. I was working at home on 9/11 but finally just quit as I was so choked up and horrible time especially seeing all those men crying, people begging if anyone had seen their loved ones. I hope to never see anything close to that again. Oh, Katrina got me also. I get saturated with news sometimes.
Diane, I'm in NY too --- 2 miles from WTC, but
keep in mind that living in NYC was one thing -- these are people that work at home for their hospitals and didn't know whatsoever! That I find just unbelievable!
Just curious - do you transcribe for a hospital or a service. Don't find too many transcriptionists that can afford to live in Manhattan on a transcriptionist's salary :)
We must be one of the lucky few!
Thank you both--I'm somewhat encouraged! nm diane

Just had to let you know, tonight is Steak Diane and a
couple of veges. Yummy!
Thank you. I appreciate the information ...
sounds like a way to reward those whose production and quality are at the top.
Thanks.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION
but, with a much better company and I smell management. Take that and smoke it.
Perhaps this information might help:
If you would post a clear statement of the change that is happening and what its expected results will be BEFORE you make such changes, then it wouldn't be viewed so suspiciously.
rec'd no such information
and my count has been 'below production' different times and my benefits didn't change. My supe told me way back when that only if a person "consistently" didn't make production would it affect their benefits.
Where did you get your information? nm.
nm.
information
i mentioned something to my supervisor a couple of weeks ago that I "heard" that MQ was offering extra on the line rates to new hires, which upset me, and of course, her response was you can't trust what you hear or see and I know that, but it seems like what i'm seeing on this website seems to be more reliable in some respects than what i get from MQ and like you said, that's really sad. I'm not signed up for IPay so i can't check to see if there's anything there -- guess i could check my bank to see if there's more there.
For your information,
I am not at all overweight. I would really like to know why someone who is as beautiful as you say you are is a transcriptionist?
Information (SM)
If you want to know why your posts are deleted, leave a valid e-mail address. I e-mail the poster why and a copy of their deleted post.
It is not because you have "MQ" in your moniker as a name. Otherwise, take this gripe over your posts being removed to e-mail or it will be deleted.
Don't know where you got your information-
Although a CMA is definitely not a PA, I do not know anywhere you get get what you need in 4-6 weeks. I took the CMA exam after years working in a physician's office, but the programs that I know about in this area are 1-2 years.
Any information on this anyone?
My husband came home from work hearing about something called EDTA (Ethylene~Diamine~Tetra-acetic~Acid). It is suppose to break down the minerals and heavy metals out of your body and make your risk of heart disease a lot lower. Does anyone have an information on this. He would like to take it if it true because of heart disease in his family, although I am not certain he should, as I always worry about the things they don't tell you about the stuff your taking.
Any information would be great.
Thanks!!
Thanks for the information!!!
Thanks to all for the information.
Thanks for the information.
Thanks so much for the information...sm
Final question - I checked out the website that you told me about and that explains it all. One final question - do you have connection problems with this and I guess one more question, and the true final question is the quality of the voice good on the file? Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
I appreciate the information. nm

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the information
Thanks to all of you for the helpful information!
Thanks for that information
That is very interesting about the files not being there at all. May be I am not getting the files downloaded correctly. Thanks so much for your help!
Thanks so much for the information!!
:)
where does that information come from?
please give links. I found nothing to substantiate that on my search
Thanks, that is quite useful information, but
you do not continue to believe that air conditioning will kill mold . . . it will not, and nowhere in the document you linked to does it even suggest that. It does provide information about air conditioning lowering the relative humidity of a home, and also that it aids in drying out wet areas (because it lowers the relative humidity).
You are not only misinformed, but also are misinforming others by posting segments of the document that are not connected in any other way than being a part of the same document.
For anyone who is interested, and perhaps does not want to go to the link or read the full text, this is what it actually says.
PREVENTING MOLD GROWTH (begins on page 2)
Page 3, paragraphs 4 and 5
Increase the air flow in problem areas. Move furniture
a few inches away from outside walls so that air
flow will decrease the problem of condensation on
the walls.
If mold is growing in closets, keep closet doors
open to promote air flow. Closets should not be overfilled,as this will reduce air circulation in the closet. Louvered closet doors aid in ventilation. Circulating fans may help with air flow in problem areas.
STRATEGIES FOR PREVENTING OR
REMOVING MOLD GROWTH AFTER CONTAMINATION (begins on page 3)
Page 4, paragraph 3
For many hard surfaces, disinfecting with a solution
of one cup of bleach to one gallon of water is effective.
The area must be kept wet with the bleach for 10 to 15
minutes to kill the mold. If the surface is porous like
wood, the bleach solution may need to be reapplied to
keep the surface wet for the required time. If large areas
of a basement need to be disinfected, a garden sprayer
can be used to apply the bleach solution to the walls. If the walls have been contaminated with sewage, increase the proportion of bleach to water.
MT Information
Hello, I am looking to start working as an MT in order to enable me to homeschool. Can you please share any tips, job openings etc?? I would really appreciate it. I am newly relocated to Lawrenceville GA from NJ. Thanks!!
Need som information..
I would like to start doing things in my own area, get my accounts, etc. I just do not know where to start. Do I type up an "introductory" letter and send them to doc offices? What kind of equipment is the easiest to do this "internet based?" I have A LOT of questions. If someone could email me, I would really appreciate it!!
Thanks
More information....SM
I don't mean a financial deduction. I'm just trying to figure out a percentage score. Here's the details.
The document is 40,178 characters.
There were two critical errors (word left out and wrong dose) and seven noncritical errors (like his instead of has, a instead of an, etc.)
How could I figure a percentage?
thank you for this information
I have been struggling with this decision and your info makes it easier for me to stick with XP. Why mess with a good thing?
Too much information
The doctor just dictated the patient became pregnant on her wedding night. Not something I really needed to know. LOL.
Where did this information come from?? nm

More information.
This program can be set to automatically download files from FTP sites or folders on the computer's hard drive; it's just that you have to do it manually, whereas some of the "more automated programs" came with these things already set up. I use ES for all transcription playback and haven't needed the pricer automation.
As with most opinions, they are subjective, but happy for the discourse.
Just for your information....
There was no lack of willingness to fill anybody in about anything. I was going to tell her everything from top to bottom about the account, what I was looking for and find out what she was looking for so as to make a perfect fit. She was not "signing her life away" either. I am only looking for 2-3 hours per day and the time you complete the work is totally up to you. As far as being miserable to work for, I haven't had anyone work for me before because I have been the only person in my business, doing hospital account along with IC positions. I don't have to offer more cpl to get anyone to work for me. In fact, I could just keep all of it for myself, but because I try to keep my clients happy I am needing to get another person on-board so as to keep TAT within reason. As far as I'm concerned this discussion can be locked. I can't believe the hateful and bitchy remarks made to a totally innocent inquiry. As I haven't had to go through the hiring process before, I was wondering if this was the norm, that you get people like this when you interview. After all of this, I think I will just continue to do all the work myself. There will be less headaches for all involved and more money for me in the long-run. So all of you who had a problem with a simple inquiry, go back to your little holes and be happy. I've got work to do!
Thanks for the information...nm

Exactly where are you getting this information?
LOL - "all other countries?"
Source, please.
Why can't Americans dispense with some of their arrogance and try harder to understand/be understood?
I have NO problem with ESLs in general because they oftern try harder to be understood than American mumblers/speeders.
You have old information.
MT Information
Treasia,
I graduated from a MT course in 06. It was a nine month course and I found it very helpful. I would think with your knowledge you would only need a Med.Term class for refreshers. (Which you probably do not need,but almost everyone wants). I also feel I should mention, which is something that I wish someone would have told me starting off,
MOST PLACES REQUIRE 2 YEARS BEFORE THEY ALLOW YOU TO WORK FROM HOME.
The college I would recommend is Indian Hills Community College, in Ottumwa Iowa. They offer all classes for this program online. They have a great set up and for all the interviews I have been on most of the employers comment on how great the classes were and sometimes they even went above and beyond what was required. Hope this helps and good luck to you.
Thank you for this information -
Thank you so, so much. This is actually going to help me, too, on another project I am doing on my home computer. I just happened to read the post. I went to the website, and it looks like it is perfect! It works with all window applications.
All the best - 
For your information,
"your" s/b spelled "you're!"
Second of all, I did not complain about every post! There are very supportive and positive people here, and you are NOT one of them! Once again, you are not even addressing the real issues here! If you don't have anything positive to say, then go away! Wow! I think there is less hostility in Iraq right now, than on this board! 
Go away negative/unsupportive posters! We don't need you here! Helpful info only welcome! 
Information for
becoming an editor. We may be going to powerscribe and I want to get as much education to prepare for this transaction if it takes place. Does anyone have any information or great websites or even books to help me prepare for this?
Any and all information would be great. Thanks
Have you gotten information on this yet?
x
thank you for that information....sm
I kept calling both numbers and they were busy for a long time. Finally, left message with President Obama's service. Also, left message with Senator Steve Levy's service. I just hope everyone does this :)
For your information . . .
My daugther will be 18 in June and no she is not having sex. She isn't even dating yet. She is very involved in school and education. Also, she does not want the Gardaisl shot. She came to me about it before she heard my opinion as several of her friends had bad experiences with them. The doctor did a breast exam ---which is why I was asked to leave. It is required in my state for a driver's permit -- no gyno exam. No she does not need to be vaccinated. I want her to live. Several girls have died. Cervical cancer is treatable and there is no hard proof Gardasil even works. So far I'm only seeing the bad side effects. The first girl ever to get it died within minutes. And yes, I have tried to do research on my own regarding back x-rays. I'm finding varies information, which is why I posted here.
seems there was information about...
seems a while back someone was discussing the netbook, I use a laptop and wireless and works great. The only difference with the netbook is no CD rom or DVD, otherwise works with a separte keyboard, as Id o with the laptop
More information please!
I am wondering if you can supply more information please?
Where did you locate this job?
Where did you take the test?
I am thinking of taking some classes and am not sure how flexibly my company will be so I am looking at any and all possibtilites.
Thank you!
Information please
Hi Jane Doe,
I would like to send a personal e-mail and talk with you.
why would we need your information sm
if you are a business development executive? We are MTs. We dont need your info. A better word for us is language specialists and its obvious you don't have a grasp of the English language!
