In Reply to: Individual Health Insurance Policies - just curious
companies that offer health insurance and get a quote. Call several because the premiums can vary significantly. BCBS may have a low rate, but they are a pain in the rear to deal with and deny more claims than they pay.

Go through your local yellow pages and call
companies who advertise they offer health insurance. Call several companies as the premiums can vary widely, although the coverage will be the same. I did this and called 6 different companies and the premiums varied as much as $200.00/mo for the same exact insurance. Celtic was the company that had the best rate for us, but that was nearly 4 years ago. If you have no pre-existing conditions you can get a temporary insurance through Fortis for 6 months to a year depending on your state, provided that you have not been without coverage for greater than 45 (I think) days. You can also go on-line to einsurance.com and get an idea of rates, though I still suggest you call local agencies.

Since my phone is listed under my business name I get a free listing and have gotten quite a few one-time only jobs, seminars, interviews, etc. that really pay well and not needing a 24 TAT and it has worked for me. Also no 1099's with then as it is a one time job. Last year got a 10 tape seminiar on pet therapy and it was almost $2,000 for the seminar done in our spare time over 2 weeks. Just my 2 cents worth.

Call your local MD!
find a medical care provider, whomever is on call for your local MD, and do what they say. Once something lke this involves the head/neck/face, it can get hairy. And if it begins affecting his airway, there's hell to pay. Find someone medical to give you advice right away. Otherwise, he could end up on the floor, and you on the fone with 9-1-1.
at my local hospital, they always call the
I think that is pretty standard. Calling by the first name only would be rather confusing. Especially if it is a busy hospital with a waiting room that is always full, like our local hospital.
I have a "questionable behavior" story for you! I went to the walk-in clinic held at our local hospital b/c I was having pain in my pinky finger. The waiting room was packed, as always. I go in, see the doc, and he tells me to go back to the waiting room until they call my name again. After a few mins in the waiting room, he calls my name & I get up thinking he was going to bring me into a room to privately give me my diagnosis. NOPE! The dope says it to me, loudly - not at all in a whispering tone, in the middle of the waiting room for everyone to hear!! He said "I think it is some kind of fungal infection" His actions were not only humiliating, but wrong! It was not an infection, rather a blood clot that developed on my nerve that needed to be removed surgically! Now, that, I think qualifies for a HIPAA violation!!  (Yes I did file a complaint with the Patient Care Rep)
Call your local paper and see if they have a route
available in your area. You have to be an early riser and work 7 days a week though. I used to get up at 6:00 to walk. Now I get up at 5:00, walk for one hour every morning with only 65 newspapers, and I make an extra $70 to $80 a week for 7 hours a week.
My sister does 250 papers by car (roadside tubes) and she makes $1000 a month. It takes her 3 hours a day though and she has a full time job, so I think that's a bit much.
Seriously though, papers don't hire kids anymore to deliver because kids just can't or don't want to do it. Besides, who wants their 13-year-old out walking the streets at 5:00 a.m. ?.
No boss, good exercise, good money.
Call your local BC/BS for private insurance. (sm)
I pay $292 for just myself with a $750 deductible. After the first year, they will pay for pre-existing. I hated mine at first, but I'm used to it now and it's coverage that will protect me. Thankfully, I make enough money that it's working out well for me. Check out the link below. They may have affordable insurance that will help you as well. A friend of mine is considering this. Her pharmacist thought it was a nice policy. Good luck.

One thing about wading thru pages and pages looking for negatives, is...
it really does show that the seller is overall very good. Know what I mean? There will always, always, always be those customers who are impossible to please, especially on E-Bay. I've gotten almost all my negatives from leaving calm, but justifiable negatives when the buyer had stiffed me and not gone thru with the sale. We are called to leave these negatives as sellers to warn the community, but instantly we will get flamed with a retaliatory negative that is a total lie. So, now most sellers don't leave justified negatives anymore! That said, really, if you have to wade thru page after page to find even 1 negative, I would say you're safe bidding, as long as the feedback is current!
I agree. Take none of this. Let their behavior be known and even if necessary call the local News
many TV stations have to help. There was a service in our city who never paid her people and the local news On Your Side was contacted and not only was she on the news for not paying but she was also picked up by the police. There is usually at TV station in every major area (even if they are not in a major area, will go to the local surrounding areas) to help folks with problems such as this. Take it to whoever you can. People like this do not respect you.
I never understood why people continue to work for people that are even one day late. Pay should be on time. If it isn't, the MTSO would never get an ounce more of work out of me and believe me he/she WOULD pay me! I am not one to let it go. I too have worked in the legal field and I do know how to proceed.
Just don't give them one more day of your time.
Call local dentists and see if you could talk (see inside)
with their hygienists. Maybe you could drop by at lunch time or something and they'd be willing to talk to you, or maybe you could arrange to chat by phone when they are not working.
Yes, call your local vet, any vet, and ask for the wild rabbit rescuer in your area.
There is always someone nearly everywhere. If you can't find one, please write me and I'll search for someone for you if you're short on time. They are so worth saving. Mom might still be around. Let's hope so!
Call a local camera store and see if they offer this service.
Many times photographers will also provide a similar service. I personally haven't had it done, but have heard of people doing this for a memorial service or a wedding. They can take still pictures/slides and incorporate them too.
I probably read about it on MSN or someone mentioned it to me. Maybe call local college or JUCO
?
Call a local school or program and ask. I was asked if I wanted to teach when I

give it a shot. Look in your yellow pages or on-line white and yellow pages and see what you can come up with. MT Daily has a list by state of MT companies to with their contact info. Also test your butt off anywhere and everywhere on line, you will learn a lot during the process. I found it quite enlightening when I was doing it 3+ years ago. Good luck.

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.
I went local. Great local tech support, they know what I do and were able to set it up just for me

that little yellow thing
Can anyone tell me what that little yellow moving thing in front of some messages means please?
A 3yo yellow lab and a 2yo golden retriever. sm
Believe me, they keep me busy! The yellow lab is a freak about his rubber ball - has to have it with him every second or he goes crazy. The golden retriever is still very much a baby but is getting better. Both of these breeds are considered a "puppy" until they 3yo, so I'm patiently biding my time til they leave the puppy stage. I love them to death, tho, and can't imagine life w/o them. The lab is the absolute best dog I've ever had. Great with the kids, good protectors.

I have SBC DSL and I use the yellow Ethernet cable.
I'm not much on techie stuff.
red and yellow, black and white--OK
Type as dictated. Oriental male and black male are both acceptable phrases.
Oriental, Caucasian, Filipino, Hispanic, Latino, etc., are all names of peoples/races and should be capitalized.
Color designations of race and ethnicity are not capitalized: black, white.

I did my office is yellow-gold with brown
tones and then with thinned brown craft paint ragged on using an old T-shirt. Turned out great and elegant. I also did my bathroom in green tones. People think its wall paper. This technique also hides any flaws you may have in your wall because it sort of gives it a 2D effect.

yellow marker=flame=hot thread
It's supposed to be a flame meaning it is a hot topic receiving a lot of views. You were so close to the answer. =)
Could be the yellow hair but his eyes are puffy too, like Tom Cruise.
Bring back the old fun loving Brad and Tom.

Desk with hutch and pullout drawer and keyboard shelf, on top of desk and in hutch two transcription units, a clock so I can watch time fly (haha), lots of miscellaneous reference books, most outdated but can't give up, plus large filing cabing, small filing cabinet, two printer stands that match wooden desk and hutch, loaded with more important stuff (yeah, right), one of those organizing paper holders (two stacked on top of each other) with 16 slots for different clients' letterhead, a laser printer (HP of course! LOL), the dozen roses DH bought me for Valentines, dried and looking pretty in the vase, DH's desk and hutch, with his two printers, a shelving system with a bunch of candle and soapmaking supplies (mmm, it smells good in here!), and .... of course! .... my TV. Geez, I can't live without it!
The yellow cable plugs into the back of your computer and (sm)
the other end into the modem. If only one computer is being hooked up, plug it into the slot labeled E1, otherwise you may experience an occasional error message of: "network connection has become unplugged." I hear your frustration regarding ESL "help" technicians -- Vonage is full of them!
Why do some posts have yellow icons by the left side?
my office is mainly a cheery yellow with large windows along 2 walls (sm)
hardwood floors with a throw rug for my dog and plants, plants, plants. The lighting in here is perfect and I feel peaceful when I work, like I was in the midst of a garden.

In 1985, when their BOS was only 85 pages....sm
Back in the 80s, AAMT used to care about all the MTs. Their BOS was only 85 pages long (I still have one of these BOS....a gold book, very tall and very skinny)....then the AAMT got big and it all went to their heads and their 2nd edition BOS is close to something like 600+ pages long. And now they support offshoring to India/Pakistan. At that point, they no longer cared about the USA MTs.
Later for the AAMT..........*L*.......MUCH later.
1st one in the 1980s was 85 pages....sm
the first AAMT BOS was 85-90 pages long back in 1985....the one I have today, Second Edition bought 2 years ago....has I do believe 600 pages.....
so your question about what has changed cannot be answered in the post here......get yourself a copy ?? Can be ordered right from their site....aamt.org 
That is at the top of all pages - I forgot about it! Thanks. (NM)

and many are 3-4 pages long....sm
I loved them, back in the days - a lot of these reports are EXPERT WITNESS reports too...and perhaps the dictator has not even seen the patient....just reporting based on medical records/radiology, et cetera. Most of mine (back in the days) were 3-4 pages long, done for orthopaedists and/or chiropractors.
forget the yellow hair and puffy eyes, his entire face is falling
I understand, I think it is just here lately the pages are full of nothing but MQ and then
it turns into arguments and nasty remarks, and so forth.
It isnt really the talking about MQ, it is just the bickering going on about it.
I understand completely about wanting to discuss some things.
I dont really mind the MQ posts, but they are so large in number.
I hope things clear up. Maybe if you and other MQ employees that have a lot of time with them all take some "time off" at the same time, they could get the idea they need you guys.
I guess if I was with someone for that length of time, I would have the same feelings.
I really do wish you the best and I dont want you to think anyone has singled you out. It is the whole MQ thing.
I think we are all scared because MQ is a leading company and scared that they are ruining the whole MT business for us all.
We would all love to see MQ split up or downsize and not be such a big part of the industry. Then again we dont want to see people out of a job either.
Wow, almost 4 pages of the stuff, someone has been busy, nothing better
