A blank is what I would put. Root (nerve root) is all that comes to mind.

I think you'll be OK but I totally lost my nerve sm

Well, I don't care and I'll take him anyway. sm
Really, I don't think he's gay... I don't get that feeling at all. And I don't really think he's probably all that old. But either way, I'll take him. He seems like a genuinely nice guy -- and believe me, that's hard to find. I've been through some really doozies and my latest guy really put me through the ringer. So RadGuy -- I'm yours.

NEVER did my employer in any way imply or threaten or dare even mention that my job was in jeopardy because I could not work immediately following a trifecta of natural disasters! My jaw agape is not at your concern about working, but at your concern that you would lose your job because of it. Companies have to have a heart in some situations. You're one MT, your company won't go under without you working for a week or 2 or 3.
Elimiate white flour and white sugar from your diet.
OK, I'll post specifics, even if they see it. I don't care any more.
Low work volume so shuffled from account to account with different specs in a short period of time. I used to complain about one former job putting me on three accounts in less than three weeks. Try three accounts in one week. Time-consuming setup of patient demographic information. Zero QA feedback, nothing, nada, zilcho. I don't know if I'm doing anything right or not. Ranting emails sent to everyone about "we're going to lose the account" unless you do this or that.
Why not leave them white or off-white and use
accessories and window treatments to bring it together. Personally, I like neutral color walls and like to decorate around them. You can bring the rooms together with nice window treatments, throw pillows, and candles with candle holders.
Pier-1 imports has great decorating ideas.
Good luck.
I recently lost 20 pounds. That means I lost 80 sticks of butter.

Root Canals...sm
Anyone care to share any experiences they may have had with these? I need a root canal and I'm terrified of dentists! Unfortunately, it's a front tooth, so I have no choice but to have it done. Just wondering what to expect.
Thanks in advance!
Root Canals
I have had four root canals, all done by an endodontist. No pain with any of them. It is not a bad experience. I had to pay for one myself just recently and it was $1400. The crown, of course, was not included and will probably be done by your general dentist.
valerian root

I have had two root canals in the past
I do not like the dentist either, but they had to be done. The most painful part was the needle in the beginning. One thing I would let your dentist know is that you are afraid. It's ok to tell them that, and they can take extra steps to try and make you comfortable.
root canals - I've had several
Didn't feel a thing, honest. I was scared of dentists too, but found a good one, and I'm not anymore - of course, if he retires, I'm back to square one.

I doubt your brother has won more than he's lost. To win that much he's probably lost 3 times
So he probably has more bills than money. Otherwise the casinos would go broke.

Valerian root or melatonin supplements from the health food store might help. nm

Kinship care versus foster care/adoption
Having been placed in a position where I now have custody of my 3 YO granddaughter and going through the legal system, I sought an online network of relative caregivers for children. I would encourage you, especially since you are in Georgia, that if you take any children into foster care with the idea of adopting them, there is federal law that requires the state to take certain actions in a specific time frame. When a child is removed from it's bio parent(s), the state is required to investigate any possible relatives who can take the child before foster care is considered, but even before that, reunification with the parents is the priority. Once a child enters the system and is in the system for 15 out of any 22 months, the state is required to find permanent placement for the child.
The problem with this is that there are case workers who may favor a foster family and do not seek out relative care. I have a good friend in Georgia who had to fight all the way to the state level to get custody of her grandson after the child was placed from the hospital into a foster care home with the promise that the foster parents would be allowed to adopt. She has now adopted her grandson, but it was a long, hard battle to get the state to admit their own interests were placed above those of the child and/or family.
If you get a child placed through the state, please make certain there is not a relative who wants that child before you get your hopes up. The courts are now favoring return of children to relatives even after a child has spent years with a foster family who hoped to adopt them.
States get bonus federal funds by complying with the time lines and being able to close the case, so some states place children in foster care because it is easier than trying to locate relatives.
Didn't mean to go off on a tangent, but I can't imagine my sweet bella going to someone outside her family.
If it was a clinic, it might have been urgent care, but it was NOT acute care. sm
Acute care refers to work in an acute care setting, a hospital, doing at least History and Physicals, Discharge Summaries, Consultations, Surgery notes, Emergency Department notes, and much more, including GI procedures, Cardiology procedures, Neurological procedures, Pulmonary Function Studies. It goes on and on and it means and acute care hospital setting, not a clinic.

cards
I just replaced my sound card, as well. I like the updated version of creative sound blaster... SB X-FI Audio. It is expensive, but worth the quality sound.
air cards
I use a Verizon wireless air card and it will not let you use a router. I can obviously unplug it from one pc and use it on another but not at the same time on both. I had asked about this when I signed up for it and they said that you have to have different cards on different computers to be able to use at the same time. I hope this helps.
I'll go! I'll go!! I won't take hormones and will be ready to defend your honor :) n/m

credit cards
Don't charge unless you can pay the piper.
credit cards (sm)
Yes, this is what I am referring to. I have been receiving these notices in the mail lately basically stating that the credit card companies can do whatever they want, i.e., raising interest rates, miminum payments, etc. This was attached onto the new bankruptcy bill that was passed in October. These changes will take effect I believe in Jan 2006. I am getting rid of all of mine. I have a good FICO score of 765 and have opted out of these new changes with the intent of paying off these cards. Hope everyone else is paying attention. Happy Thanksgiving!!
Then, do not get any more credit cards,
bank in this country, go to the doctor at all, have insurance, buy a Dell computer, or do any customer service calling. Boycott .. look around they are everywhere .. ;-)
debit cards
do they automatically take the money out of your account the second you use it. I looked at my account online and it is very low. DH has been using the DC and it has not shown any of the transactions dh made this weekend. Just wandering if it had already took those out but hasn't shown it yet on-line or are we going to be bumbarded tomorrow. If dh don't get his paycheck in Wed and quick me may be in trouble
Here's the way these cards work...sm
They put a hold on your account the second the card is scanned for the amount it is scanned for. The processing of the charges goes through usually within hours to a couple of days depending on your bank.
Here's the #1 pitfall of debit cards - and my fiance just learned this the hard way after I had already warned him. We went out to eat 3 weeks ago and the waiter ran the wrong ticket on his debit card. Our total was around $40. The waiter rang the table next to us which was a larger group of people and their charges were right at $100. We caught the error when he brought the ticket to be signed. His boss immediately ran a credit; however, the banking system wouldn't post the credit to his account for 3 days. This means that for 3 days he had $60 less available than he should have had available. My mom also had an episode once where she and some friends went out to eat and the waiter hit a wrong button, charging her $127.00 instead of $12.70. Sure they ran a credit right away but for 3 business days she didn't have access to the difference in the amounts. While neither of them were in danger of bouncing checks over these clerical errors, if they had been running low on funds then they would have had checks bounce and it wouldn't have been their fault. I refuse to have a debit card for this very reason. By using a credit card if there's a mistake made then at least you have access to regular cash while the correction is being applied.
USB wireless cards are available.
You can get a wireless card that plugs in directly to a USB port. Just go to any tech store. We have both Dell and Lynksis versions on various machines here. There is usually an installation cd with the device.
Sprint Air cards
I agree with the above poster, however, I know that when I visited North Carolina a little over a year ago, my cell phone coverage was terrible. The thing to remember with air cards whether they be from Sprint, Verizon or Cingular is that the speed that you get with using one of these is very dependent on how close you are to a cell tower. I have the USB air card from Sprint and can use it with either my desktop or my laptop.
I used phone cards until I got my
digital phone set up. They worked fine, but were a pain as I would disconnect if I had to proof something so I would save minutes. There is a phone service that charges 2.9 cents, but I can't think of the name right now.
Christmas Cards
I send out cards, but a lot less than I used to. I used to send out at least 50, but now because of the rise in postage, I've cut it way down. I noticed last year we got a lot less cards too. Maybe nobody likes us anymore. LOL.
Business Cards
I am interested in picking up some new accounts and really want to design a nice business card --besides the usual info what else can I put on there to make a good impression?
Thanks for your feedback -
This is not true if you have multiple cards. sm
While it's true you need to have lines of credit to show history, NO ONE will tell you to keep open many accounts, because many open accounts represents POTENTIAL debt.
2 cards - FEMA and Red Cross
They haven't gotten to the FEMA ones, I don't think yet, but the Red Cross ran out of their cards today in Houston at the GRB after people stood in line for about 6 or so hours. They thought there would be rioting. Yeah, we are having a great time here in Texas.
I use debit cards and keep the receipts on the
desk until the item has cleared the bank. I check the accounts online EVERY morning and balance each while I am waiting for DQS to load. Once a check or debit clears I toss it.
This way mistakes (mine or others') can be caught before they become disasters, any by knowing exactly what the balance is I know what I can afford to spend that day.
Debit cards with logos on them
Where do you get debit cards from with the Visa or Master Card logo on them? My bank only gives out a Star Debit Card without any logos on it.
Business cards, referrals....
have really worked for me. I have had to turn away two offices recently and am very happy with the work I have. Cold calling landed me a good podiatry account and doing mailers/faxes provided two other accounts. If your persistent, you will get all the work you want. Where I live (Tampa) there are so many doctors' offices!
Best of luck to you!
What do you think about sending out Christmas cards with
a business card inside to solicit for local accounts? Tacky? Different? Original? I've got a list of small locals I'd like to solicit but was waiting until after the new year. Then I found a couple of boxes of Christmas cards that I bought on clearance last year. Why not kill two birds with one stone? Unclutter the Christmas box and send holiday greetings to potential clients?
Proscript sent out gift cards (sm)
for dinner when we caught up a new account. Our transcription director is always writing encouraging and informative memos, though I do miss Rick's unique input.
E-cards are free from Hallmark (sm)
And they have a lot to choose from: funny, sappy, holidays, birthdays, whatever. I love to e-mail my friends e-cards and I love to get them too. Go to the Hallmark website and click on e-cards. You could send them to her daily or weekly or whatever.
I also think it will just take time for your sister to adjust. I think you are wonderful to care the way you do and have the concern that you have. She is very lucky to have a sister like you.
Love gift cards
I worked for a company who gave out visa gift cards, gift cards to local spas, gift cards to office supply stores, and to book stores. I also think campany logo desk accessories are a great way to promote company loyalty. You could have a choice of different things like mouse pads, mugs, and such for the smaller bonus.
I do send out Christmas Cards...sm
My youngest was sick the other day at school so I picked him up. While he was resting on the couch, I took that opportunity to start my Christmas cards. I got 20 or so done. Will finish during this week - about another 10-20. I love getting snail mail Christmas cards and think it is a wonderful change of pace (even my next door neighbor sent us one in the mail) from getting emails all day long. This also gives my family a chance to see them as opposed to getting them via email.
Cards that say donation to charity sm
St. Jude's Children Hospital has them, it reads that a gift to the hospital has been given to the hospital in their honor. Very nice, not too personal and no hint that some return gift is expected.

When I broke my ankle, I was just grateful it wasn't the hands. Without our hands we'd be totally screwed.
I broke my right ankle slipping on ice and was lucky to have gloves on because the palm of the glove was totally torn up and my hand was okay.
Good luck and be sure to do your exercises when it is time.
