...and you don't have to sign up for a makeup "club," or anything. I totally agree with you that this makeup is great for all the basic purposes (coverage, lasting), but their slogan is "Makeup so healthy you can sleep in it." There is a delay in time between when you can apply your powder after moisturizer, but it is really worth it.

To go with your powder I recommend the "pump brush" offered at some of the cosmetic online stores. You fill the handle with your powder mixture (I mix two different powders, changing it up or down according to how much sun I've been getting) and the pump brush will distribute some to the bristles, tap and have at it! This is great for carrying it with you to minimize the loss into the lining of your handbag!

I cannot recommend Bare Minerals enough. I used to be a MAC convert, and have tried everything from Chanel to Maybelline--this product does not disappoint.

dating story - the stuff they make movies out of. I'm not kidding, either. I will be able to tell it soon, hopefully.

For what it's worth, I have found the most astounding dating site. Totally FREE. The best part of it is that there are forums there. http://www.plentyoffish.com

Old Navy is one of my favorites.  Their stores are so small that they never have my size in stock anyway.  If you order from their website, the shipping is only $5 no matter how much you buy.  I also buy and sell a lot on ebay and half.com.  At Christmas time, I buy from Toys R Us online.  They usually have free shipping if your bill is over $50, and you can get the sale price.  I missed it yesterday.  I didn't realize that I could have purchased the 4-hour deals from Toys R Us on their website.  Oh well, maybe next year.

but  was a big investor back just before 2001 and I sold lots of shares when AOL was at 30....it subsequently went down to 9 or 11 and then was not on the market for a long time....

happy holidays y'all if y'all celebrate .

You can get some general info online.  But before signing up make sure you find out what the charges are for maintaining your account yearly, monthly or however.  That can make a big difference as to where you put your money.  

I have 4 pretty long transcription tests to take from an online site and am tearing my hair out!!!  I can't figure out Express Scribe (and I'm told it probably won't work), but using manual controls on these voice files s going to take me all night.  Is there a trick to it?

I'm wondering if anyone is using the online BOS 3rd edition and if you like it? 

All comments appreciated.  - P.S. The company I work for uses these rules so the info is pertinent ... and I have no former editions.

Thanks.

All the instructions are on this site.  You can get your "PIN" here (which you will use for applying online) and and also fill out your application for aid online. 

Please...have some sense.  Online petitions for anything never ever work, period. 

Most petitions, legal/political etc will not accept online names/screen names/email addy's etc, because think about it, one person could sign repeatedly just by changing screen names, having all kind of yahoo, hotmail, aol, road runner, etc accounts.  If it's a legit petition most require a real name, address and phone number so the judging agency can verify all the votes, etc.

I was 28 and had lots of fun with online dating, a couple surprises with in-person visits compared to pictures, a couple of good laughs with 50-year-olds emailing me.  Great for the ego after a hurtful divorce.  Met my husband who was in a similar situation (and who did look like his picture), and he is a real gem.  I hadn't used eharmony, though, so I can't speak to how well that one works, but I went through a dating site for people of my same religion.  If you can find common-interest dating sites you already have something in common to go on.

I have been working for a company for 15 years doing it the old way - i.e., tapes and printing, that has just been sold to an online company. We have a meeting with them - what questions should I ask? Terms like "platform", "expanders", etc., are Greek to me. Thanks.

Unless you want to be chained to your chair.  What company is paying you 10 cpl unless you are working 10 hour days and chained to your chair with IM's popping up every few minutes and QA breathing down your neck.  I'll take the 8 cpl/easy clinic work and FREEDOM to not work when I don't want to or take on extra when I do.  I don't have to print or leave my computer.  This 8 cpl is not my main account. I have my own accounts that pay much, much more, but I needed something to get some experience online.  I came from a hospital setting with some remote work from home.  You have to gain your knowledge somehow.  There are plenty of people working for 5 cpl.  There are QA people working for 3 cpl.  You still need the skills as a Transcriptionist to do QA so why does that pay so little?  As of right now, I've learned what I need to know and that is the nationals drain you dry, expect too much and pay way too little.  The smaller MTSO's pay way too little, take advantage of your IC status (making you work a set schedule/set lines, etc.).  The supposed MT-friendly platforms are strictly to benefit the MTSO/national and not the transcriptionist.  Finally, no one seems to care about the patient.  It is all about CPL and line count, and lack of QA feedback, etc.  I'm very happy with my own accounts and a little side job making 8 cpl online with FREEDOM to pick and choice what I type and when I type it with 15+ years experience.  Fortunately you not only gain transcription experience, you gain life experience!   

There are lots out there. I have Shorthand. I know several people with Instant Text. You can do the research online or ask around for what you want. It would cost you maybe $150? I haven't priced them lately. But I will say an Expander is worth every cent! My productivity has gone up more than one-third since buying and making very good use of my expander. I add multiple entries every day. You get better at coming up with a system as you go along, and adding entries is super fast. Hope that helps!

Can someone using mydocsonline answer a ? for me ?  I want something simple for my group of doctors.  They have the Olympus ds 4000 with the docking station.  They dont want to log into a site everytime they dock (the files apparently auto load)  Is mydocsonline just an alternative to email?  This would seem like the easiest solution for me if it is!

Thanks

I'm looking at a company called Future MT for online education.  Does anyone know anything about them?

 spyware removal site (like Nortan or McCaffee, etc. and get any and all bugs removed.  Will cost about $60 and then your done.  This happened to me a couple of weeks ago and that was my solution.    I am cautious about not clicking or downloading suspicious things, but it got me somehow.

Does anyone have a recommended site they use for online faxing?
