What is he - your dad??? Adults don't need anyone to LET them do anything.

I WISH they had a Sit-N-Spin for adults!
Oh my god how I LOVED my Sit-N-Spin when I was a kid! If they made one that could handle a 5' 10" 200-pound corn fed heifer like myself, I'd be ALL OVER THAT!
Good times, good times.... 
Okay, so the poster may not have been referring to that particular device, sure was fun to daydream for a second though. It's colonoscopy report day at work and I needed a release ;-)
nonsense - we can all express our views...we are all adults (sm)
I just felt compelled to share this information because I just learned it.
haha - I was on atkins for 4 years, all I did was eat meat!
It just seemed important to me, like I feel it is another thing I have been 'lied' to by the government. You find the reality of things, and it is not how it is supposed to be.
Please post recipes because I still have to cook meat for my boyfriend...I just ask for forgiveness first...smile!
The chaperones' job certainly wasn't babysitting legal adults.
OJ walks free. Robert Blake walks free. The son of a top justice official will walk free, too, although I do agree that we don't know if he did anything to her or not.
oh yes, I have two teens (sm)
and they know full well how I feel about them drinking. I am not saying you can control it or stop it, but you are the one who said you didn't want to know if she was drinking at college, and to me, that is retarded! My son will be 18 tomorrow, and believe me, I'd want to know if he was drinking when he starts college in January. I guess I just have a closer relationship with my teen than you do, and for that I am sorry!
I HAD TEENS TOO
not all parents are that easy to fool, maybe you are. and 2nd and 3rd grade drinking, that is kind of rare to me. maybe your head has been stuck in the sand too long, take a look at a alot of other kids, most of them did not have to attend a tenn AA MEETING.
Teens~
I hear ya. According to my son all the kids he knows are allowed to stay up all night, talk on the phone or IM until all hours and even drink alcohol at home. I say that is wonderful for them, but that is not going to work in our house. My son is a 17-year-old senior and the past few months have been a nightmare. He was always so sweet and mild and did listen, but that all went out the window. We have sent him to a psychiatrist because we cannot figure out how to motivate him. Believe me~ you are not alone. If you get any answers, let me know, because I am at the end of my rope with this crap. 
it's spelled right. Exo means outside and you know what phrenic means. nm

Wait a minute, I'm not just talking about the boards, I'm talking about the news article.
Specifically,
"JLG has a contract with Arrendale Associates/ A+Network/CBay Scribe, which the group says is in India.
A letter from JLG to Barbara Dingman, chief compliance officer and director of health information management, says all medical transcriptionists assigned to the Medical Center Hospital account live in the U.S. and all work is done in America."
But yet they do business with Arrendale/A+/CBay, what am I missing here?
teens and New Cars
Yes, there are probably a few nice new cars the "sweet 16's" had given to them, more so probably out of the guilt the parents felt for not spending time with them or the parents need to "keep up" their own status. My niece was one of those....daddy bought his little girl anything she snapped her fingers for, she is 23, never went to college or held a job, but has a masters degree in partying and shopping. It's finally wearing thin on ol Pops and he gripes and complains but he set the standard the first time he gave in. Kids may not like you right now, but they will appreciate it more so when it's their hard earned money and feel a sense of accomplishment.
On the other hand, my kid who is 20, is still driving a used car and he now knows the benefit of it after 3-4, 5...can't even remember the count minor fender benders, no injuries except to his pride!
Teens are just learning how to drive, insist of driving with the damn cell phones to their ears and minds on anything but the roads, and as I put it, why take something brand new and bang it up? Save it till you have more experience, more of your own money and your insurance rates are lower. If my kid and his friends had stock in Maaco, they'd be young millionaires by now!
Remind her of that old saying, which I heard a zillion years ago when I was a teen "people in h _ _ _ want ice water but they don't always get it
I'd take hung any day over 2 teens that like RAP!! UGH!
I need shock absorbers for my upstairs floors while they listen to their RAP downstairs.
Don't ask why I put up with it. I do because they don't drink or drug. They write and record.
gotta pick your battles.
I have 3 teens on myspace.
Really, you need to slowly step out on the porch, down the driveway, and into the world.
Don't you realize that media will sensationalize anything to the furthest extent possible in order to raise your blood pressure?
I watch the myspace of my kids, my kids' friends, and of any anxillary friends (it's not at all hard to do if you can use a computer keyboard). Ninety-five percent are fine. A few are revealing. Heck, my 16-year old met the greatest fellow on the planet through myspace; he has become a second son.
I have a myspace myself, centered around my work and hobbies.
Don't condemn reality before you experience your first breath.
Yes, shocked here, too. As my 3 teens have
pointed out, dear Cat is sure strutting her you-know-whats. Yuck. Chris was absolutely stunned, and so were a lot of viewers. We're not even gonna bother - the remaining 3 are nice enough, but talented enough? No way!!
Yes, teens should work...
When I was in high school, I babysat and right after graduation worked in the local conveneince store. My sister worked in a clothing factory with no air conditioning, which gave her great incentive to go to college when she came home covered in lint and threads stuck to her. (Not bashing factory work, because that's where my grandmother worked. Just making a point.)
My oldest, who is now 19, worked at a grocery store and at a summer camp at our community center last summer. He had gas and car insurance to pay for after he bought a car. Right now he is attending college and working part-time at Fed Ex, loading trailers that are around 100 degrees inside. Again, another incentive to do well in school. He has rent, utilities and gas to pay for while he is at school.
My daughter is 16 and ready to take her driver's test in a couple of weeks. She started working at the same store I worked at, but unfortunately they scheduled her for every weekend and then started to cut her hours back to next to nothing, like 1 1/2 hours a night. She quit with our blessing with the understanding that once she has her license, she will start job hunting, because she, too, will have gas and car insurance to pay for. She already babysits quit a bit and buys whatever extra stuff she wants and also still has some money left from her other job that she left in March.
My youngest son is 14 and has been working in his uncle's shop for several years, helping out with this and that and he makes pretty good money. Of the 3 of them, he is the one who LOVES to work. In fact, we went to see Pirates of the Caribean (sp?) this weekend, and he wouldn't go because he wanted to help his uncle, so I have no worries about him making his way in the world.
Sorry so long.
TEENS SHOULD WORK...
At some point, at least at 16, teens should work. There are too many "EXTRAS" that they want now adays and if they want them enough they should be responsible enough to work hard to get them. My husband always thought my daughter(17) should not work while in school so she could concentrate on her studies until he saw how his sister (who is 18 years younger than him) did not work during high school or college and could not find a job after college because she had no experience. My daughter has been babysitting summers for two years and now she works at a fast food place. She pays for most of her gas, any extra clothes she wants and half of her expenses for extracurricular activities at school. This summer she mainly worked to pay off an enormous cell phone bill (which she no longer has) which taught her a big lesson in responsibility and money.
So it is my opinion that teens should work, be it part time somewhere or babysitting or yard work. The big real world is competitive.
YES teens should work to help pay for what they want but don't need
so I could help with money at home. It does teach responsibility and gives a sense of pride with each paycheck. My 10 yo wants a cell phone. I told her no way til she has a job and can pay for her minutes!
We have teens, so our plan is...
...to have one big trip every few years. We did Europe with all 3 teens in 2002, then Kauai with teens and friends this past summer (oldest graduating). Next year we are going back to Europe to do more of Italy, Wales, and Ireland with #2 graduating. Luckily I have a money-smart hubby who insists we live below our means so we can do these trips.
We also have a #2 daughter involved in competitive Irish dance, so we travel about once a month for that far and wide across the U.S. I don't call these vacations, though, but rather endless flying, shuttles, and staying at hotels. Not fun.
Absolutely teens work
In this day and age of 10 year olds with ATM cards and cell phones, absolutely! How do you learn the value of money if you never actually earn it and handle it? All 3 of my kids walked dogs for $2 an hour, scooped ice cream, babysat, mowed lawns, shoveled snow, etc. As long as their grades were up, they could work part time. The deal was that whatever they saved towards college spending money, we would match. We would also help buy each a used car for college. They knew from age 12 they had ONE SHOT at college on our nickel, then they were on their own if they dropped out or flunked out. We didn't micromanage their savings -- they were responsible for it themselves all along. All 3 absolutely amazed us -- between them we had to match almost $20k. They are now well eductated, working and productive adults. My eldest son actually thanked me for our good example as parents, and giving them an understanding of the value of money. How great is that????
Absolutely and my 2 teens are ready also. sm
I have a Senior in HS and a Freshman in HS who both are board, finished their summer reading, tired of the swim club, been to the beach for 3 weeks, and they are now vamping up for their summer camps, VB and football. They both said yesterday, they are board and their brain needs stimulation.
I on the other hand, can't wait to have my space back. I sometimes feel "my space" is invaded and don't have a spot to call my own. No matter what room in the house I go into, someone is there or follows me in, especially the kitchen.
Can't wait for school to start, but on the other hand, am not that anxious as they will be 1 more year toward being on their own and leaving the house for good - college and everything. That is scary!
I think teaching pre-teens how to do laundry
I think 10-12 year olds can help do some laundry - it helps them develop a work ethic and shows them that if they go out on their own, what they will have to do....well, the ones who don't continually bring their laundry back to their mothers. *LOL* AND they love eaning $$$ - it's a great way, instead of *tossing* allowances at them.....chores/laundry/etc. = few dollars in their little pockets *S*
It's all about deals and contracts w/kids I think....and I'm a pro...on the subject, as I have some....*lol*
Not me - love my 2 teens at home! Enjoy it while you can.
I realize my house doesn't have to be perfect all of the time, their rooms do not need to be clean all of the time, and I enjoy them so much. Soon, my son will go to college and I will be left with my one daughter, and then she will go to college and I will have an empty house with just me, hubby, and our golden. Boy, I dread those days. I am enjoying all the noise, fighting, messiness and laughter as much as possible. I love when they have friends over. They are so funny and a delight!
Really, don't wish it away too quickly.
Just turned 40 last week, Not on myspace and won't allow my teens either. sm
I have a very fulfilling life with my husband, family and friends - don't see the need for myspace for folks my age.
As for the teens - there is just too much temptation on their for them to get in trouble. They are forbidden and I check the web as well as their computers, cookies, etc. every week to be sure they are in compliance. To much danger there for my son and daughter.
I'm talking about MT school, not K-12, which is where I learned most of what you are talking abou
My clients DO NOT LIKE IT when I correct their wrong crap - did you actually read what I said?
I'm not talking about ignorant as in grammar or spelling. I'm talking about sm
ignorant in general.
38, female, married, 2 teens ages 16 and 14. Started tMT when I was 17. nm

Maybe she should have stayed in America where Americans look for drunken teens everyday.
If you go to a foreign country, you are under their laws and their policing. If you don't like it, DON'T TRAVEL OUT OF THE COUNTRY! In the meantime, TEXAS TEAM IS SEARCHING IN ARUBA WITH PERMISSION AND ARE VERY HAPPY WITH COOPERATION FROM ARUBAN GOVERNMENT!
babies are easier than teens and older children. they sleep and you can hold them and type. nm

Definitely an eye-opening read. Having my teens read it, too. nm

I think what she means is....
Kent State had a lot of conflict when Nixon declared war and the students were rioting. They were vandalizing and burning property, fighting. They called in guardsmen. The guardsmen threw tear gas canisters into the crowd to disperse them and the crowd starting throwing them back. The guardsmen started shooting into the crowd. People are still not sure why they started shooting. I think nine people were shot, 2 died or something like that.
Anway, I see the point though. Things happen at college, does that mean you shouldnt send your kids? And if you do, are you a bad parent and deserve to be judged?
What about the parents that send their kids to school the day of the Columbine High School shooting. I guess they deserved it because they were there?
Please tell me what this means...
I have been trying to figure out for the last five days since I started frequenting this site...but what in the world does it mean when people put things like nm and sm in their posts? This is driving me NUTS!!
Not sure what that means. Can you
tell me what ME in the letter from MQ mean? Thanks.
What she means is (sm)
that DocQScribe does not count the characters that you input into the demographics screen, even if you have to do it all with nothing imported. This means that characters MTs previously were paid for -- patient name, dates of service, referring physicians' names, courtesy copy names/addresses, are not compensated. If you do a lot of little reports, that will mean a HUGE decrease in line count, whereas the impact won't be so bad if you do mostly long consults. Unfortunately most companies seem to be going this way, even the very nice company I'm working for now which has me hunting through blurred PDFs of faxes to find the patient information (I'm hanging in there because it's a new account and they say they'll have the demographics imported). At MQ and DSG DQS paid for spaces; I've heard that Accuscribe does not. The "red headers" are paid for. As you say, it's simple to check your line counts using Word or MedPen's counting program.
As lovely a platform as DQS is, the overall opinion seems to be that line counts drop dramatically when using it. I don't know if that's really always true since the second day I worked for DSG I did 1500 lines, but I know that I had to leave MQ after DQS as I never was able to make the money I felt I needed. There are still a few good companies out there, but you have to really search them out.
You know what I think this means? sm
The letter says pay rates are based upon experience, skill, and work difficulty.
This leads me to believe, in conjunction with what you are saying, that our rates will be based on the above criteria. Each MT has probably been evaluated and given some rating score or something that will determine each of our "specialized new" base pay.
What I'm anxious about is the fact SE is not mentioned. I have a feeling (JUST a feeling -- since employee was the only word used) they are doing away with SE. If so, no more quarterly bonus and the IRS perks that go along with SE status. That will make me VERY sad.
does anyone know what this means...sm
When I try to log on to DQS, I get a message that states that my user profile failed to download...anyone know anything about this?
Of course, I work for MQ, and hate to call them, cause it takes forever to get an answer to a simple question, so if anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate it!
BTW, I have already logged out and in like a thousand times, plus restarted my computer, so that's not the problem. TIA!
it means
turn around time
sm means
that's not what it means
it means that six times he performed a heterosexual act that resulted in conception, but that doesn't make him a heterosexual.
You can love Ford but still drive a Buick on occasion.
DVI- please tell me what this means
It may be the stupidest question but what does DVI mean and that I need to have a DVT-supported footpedal? Does anyone know where I can get one and how much it may cost?
Thanks!
It means don't believe everything
you read. A bunch of overpaid suits never transcribed a day in their life. Also they put out propaganda trying to make more money by lying.
What this means
I am required to quote my charges for contract job and they ask me to
Breakdown cost by telephone call-in to a center or audio files being sent to you.
Any one knows about it?
By all means.............sm
That would be GREAT!!! *grins* 
Contact me whenever regarding this....oh, except when I'm in VEGAS in the autumn. *winks*
What it means is this
There are a few posters on this site that are really negative, think they know everything, and post nasty rude responses to other people's postings. Some of us call them "trolls" and sometimes we get caught up in trying to make them see how rude they are by posting back. It never works though, and we call that feeding the trolls, or keeping an argument going that does not lead to anything good. I guess we should try to ignore their rudeness, but it is hard sometimes. How's that? Did I explain it okay?
I think she means sm
TIA as in thanks in advance.
I think she means...
 Oops.....new here.....lol!
do you know what EMR means?
It means your medical record is all electronic. She does not need to look for another job.
n/m means
8
NM means no more and SM means some more
x
no that means that they pay 9 cpl and sm
a line is 65 characters not just a line no matter how short. "Gross lines" are when you get paid for a line no matter how short.
You are not an MT I take it? Not in this country either????
Not sure what it means
but mine says 1:17???
I think that's what the poster means.
If they can't report everything why is it that missing middle or upper class white females get much more attention and help than missing [insert race here] females who come from a family with very little money. Look at the case of Laci Peterson and the attention it got compared to an exact same case of Evelyn Hernandez and her 5-year-old son. She was a pregnant woman with very little money in her third trimester carrying a baby boy, who was reported missing just months before Laci. Her body was found in the same bay yet there was barely any attention at all given to that case. The case was never solved and in fact her son is still missing to this day and we still don't even hear much about it. I agree with the OP. Publicity helps in getting support and if the major news networks can report every single night for months and months on one case, why can't they report some of those nights on other cases? 
Being in day care is better if it means
they get eat, have clothes to wear and have a place to live. Yeah, they need mama, but they also need those other things, too.
