I'm thinking of using one of my dogs squeaky toys to get his attention when he cuts me off again, that will show him!

Dashes
The way I learned is correct is that if the measurement comes before the noun, it requires a dash...if after, it does not:
2-cm cyst
cyst measuring 2 cm

Six-Feet Under
I was totally stunned - can't believe it.
Six feet under
I KNOW!!! We were all sitting there with our mouths about hitting the floor. We could not believe it.
Please, please, no more on Six Feet Under
It's killing me not to read these posts. I "Tivo'd" it and haven't watched it tonight. That's what I look forward to on Monday nights. What will I ever do when it goes off???
what did you think of the Six Feet Under
It seemed a little rushed at the ending. I was also expecting to cry or get emotional or get shocked like I usually do. It was very mundane and the ending was rushed. Looks like everyone died exactly the same way, except the gay boyfriend.
Six Feet Under...
 Quit acting like an ostrich and pull your head out of the sand. Pick up the paper some time and read it or tune into the news when you can fit it into your busy schedule because it's really important for you to know what's going on in our world today. Of course, your other alternative is to keep doing what you're doing, with your head stuck firmly in the sand, thinking companies are paying bucco bucks/line rates in today's world economy.
Pes can also mean feet.
Or footlike part.
Be up front
I'd be up front with them and just flat out tell them that you'd rather they didn't contact your current employer. Most companies understand that. Offer plenty of references so they have a way to gauge your work.
Your name sounds familiar. You wouldn't happen to have a husband named Mikkos, would you?
Are you sure there are none on the front? sm
I have a Dell desktop, and I have 2 additional USBs on the front of the tower.
Six feet under drama
Nate sure left a mess, so far they've bad mouthed the Iraq war, fantasized brother and sister romance (shudders), where else will they go? Who's going to be a goner in the finale, I feel its coming. They've set it up where anyone can either off themselves or do something crazy and accidentally die.
yes frostbite of his feet
Thank you... I started laughing about the word because it sounded like tiny penis cured with cream.. and just can't concentrate now so I'm taking a break...lol
cold feet
I bought a cheap electric heater and run it pointing towards my feet.
Only one here, but it is 9 feet tall...
and it takes my 6'8" husband to help decorate near the top. Merry Christmas to all.
Best Buy does it too- was 2 feet from the door, guy saw me pay, still had - sm
to show my receipt, which I had already put away in my wallet. Pain in the butt!
crow's feet...
I am beginning to notice crow's feet around my eyes ...help! Any advice on a good eye cream to help prevent these from getting any worse would be sooo appreciated!
swollen feet
I had swollen ankles/feet last year and found out it was my high blood pressure medication causing it, so was switched to another, but then developed a cough, so then switched to Benicar with no problems. Sometimes medications can cause the feet and ankle swelling. My doctor also suggested getting up every 1/2 hour and walking around as all this sitting just does a number on our bodies. Epsom salt soak will help also. Mine occurred during the hot summer months.
RE: swollen feet
Mine swell, too. The only thing I can think of is to drink plenty of water throughout the day and walk around a bit when you can. Also, during your lunch break, prop your feet up. If you soak them, use tepid water, rather than hot.
I warm my feet.
When my hands are cold, I warm my feet. Not sure why that works, but it does! I have an electric heating pad under my feet (type barefoot or in my socks) and it warms me up. I also have a blanket I crocheted and that helps too.
Hair and feet
My feet swell a lot after sitting all day, so I also make sure I get up for at least 5 minutes every hour and stretch. I stretch my arms, shoulders, legs, etc. and walk around to get some circulation going. This does help.
My eyes started going too, so when the headaches were everyday, even just glancing at the monitor, I knew it was time to make the visit to the eye doctor. I found an excellent doctor close by my house that knew what he was doing, as I had been to another doctor that screwed me. There is such a thing as "computer glasses" and the doc spent much time with me asking questions on what I do, how close to the monitor, etc. The first day of using my new glasses, no headaches! I had visited the other doctor and was told I had "computer glasses" but after showing them to the new doc, he said they were nothing but regular glasses with not even a prescription in them.
For your hair falling out, I have scalp psoriasis, so when my stress level increases, my hair falls out even more. I have been under tremendous stress lately and actually have handfuls at once coming out. I have been to the doc, had all the tests done to make sure it wasn't thyroid or anything strange. I would suggest you see your doc and make sure of that too and go from there.
Best of luck!
Typing with feet up sm
There were many times when I could have used this advice, would love to see some pics. How I have suffered over the years with tapes! Things are getting better and it's important to take care of our legs or we could get DVT. My PT suggested sitting on a balance ball which she said a whole insurance company does. I was petrified of the balance ball at first but it really is something you can get used to. (I never did use it for work.) I also have seen pics of people working on a treadmill, standing with the laptop on a raised platform. In my younger days I think I could have done this and remained much healthier. Where there is a will there is a way. How I wish some of these options would have been available to me during the years I suffered with winding tapes, sitting for hours and in pain. Just when things are getting better -- along comes outsourcing! Perhaps things will change for the better for the newcomers, I sure hope so. Please keep posting your new ideas, there is a better way. After all, we survived electric typewriters, carbon paper and White Out! Keep on keeping on! I love the idea of working in a recliner, how much better for our backs, just be sure to get up and walk around and exercise now and then to keep the circulation going.
If you can put a in front of it, it is followup..sm
For example he had a followup visit scheduled. OR He is to come in for followup in 2 weeks.
He will follow up in 2 weeks. OR
He is going to follow up with me in 2 weeks.
Hope that helps
One foot in front of the the other sm.
Oh honey please run don't walk, right out that door. This man you live with is only in your life to beat you down with discouragement and lies. Please do not allow this to continue. You were created by one who counted the hairs on your head, is the God of the universe but he knows you by name. He did not make you for destruction but for good. Please take your children away from a person who would put them down, call them names and does not care one bit about their well being. Begin to look at yourself for the wonderful, divinely created queen that you are, you have purpose and potential and this man is only there to keep you from seeing it. The day you walk out the door and shut it a ton of weight is going to fall off your shoulders as you will begin to realize that he does not love you, he does not love anyone but himself. You have to show your kids that you love them too much to let anybody (even their own father) treat them as less than great. You are a woman and deserve to be cherished, protected and provided for, anything less is not acceptable. Please go and as you do please know that myself and I am sure many other people out here are praying for you and lifting you up. We stand in the gap for you!! Now go girl and don't you dare look back. Go and be fabulous!!
I agree, but front-end AVR and EMR will
the work bring back to the US, with a minimal number of MTs.
that one surely has both feet in their mouth right now.
When someone points a finger its usually to make themself feel more powerful, sad and unhappy person. Honey, all came here the same way, we came from dirt and are going back to dirt. You keep being strong, raise those babies the best you can and be proud you don't have the mentality of the person making such a crud statement.
The storm surge of 28 feet is said what will cause
There are many people who have remained in their homes as they are poor, disabled or quite elderly.
Hard to imagine how they would expect 485,000 people could evacuate in one day.
Yes, have been there, too. It is so historic and a great vacation place.
If the predictions come true, this city may require rebuilding.
I just cannot believe the magnitude of this event. I shudder at the thought of what tomorrow with bring.
You could do what I do and put a heating pad on low over your feet as you pedal.

My doggy likes to lie on my feet
while I am typing, the trouble is he messes up my foot pedal.
Oh yes, my new favorite show since Six Feet Under went off
nm
My feet don't touch the ground so I
When I sit in my chair, my feet don't even touch the ground, because I need my chair height to be such that I am not looking up at the screen.
I have big platform sandals that I use. They are great. One on each foot. You can move your feet around, but they are nice and high from the ground, like a movable foot stool.
Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance!
I JUST WANT TO PRAISE HIM - your post made me misty, thank God for you!
Definitely SATC, Friends, and also Six Feet Under.
I still watch SATC reruns every night and I really want the DVD collection, but it costs about $200 for the whole thing. I'd have to say my favorite is Carrie. I didn't always agree with her choices, but I saw more of myself in her than any of the others.
Loved Six Feet Under and I really miss that show, though I am getting into HBO's new show, Big Love.
I actually still watch Seinfeld reruns a lot, too! I do like Julia Louis-Dreyfuss in her new show, The New Adventures of Old Christine.
1000 square feet?
I can't imagine living in such a cramped space! Why, our master bedroom suite alone is 850 square feet!
Try switching feet? For the life of me
I can't seem to get the hang of using the footpedal with my left foot .... no coordination there at all!
To the poster with foot problems, you might check with podiastrist ... maybe you have plantar fasciitis or a bone spur?
My MTSO says its cause they are FEET doctors. lol

Switch feet temporarily (sm)
It can be done. Takes a little bit to get used to, though. I did it several years ago for a heel spur. Now I have pain in my foot pedal knee, so I went back to the other foot, and it was like no problem. Now I'm foot ambidextrous.
that was going to be 'question them up-front' and see how they respond..(nm)

Our cat (yes we have a zoo) plops on my desk right in front of me - sm
usually on my note pad or a patient list, makes it interesting too. But she doesn't usually stay long, and if the dogs are in she hides ---her and the Husky are mortal enemies, granted it does not help that he tried to eat/kill her a couple weeks go-- our signals got crossed and my husband let the dogs in before I could up up the gates to ensure her safety. Luckily I was right there and was able to grab the dog before anything really bad happened. So my husband learned an important lesson that day...communicate with me when you let the dogs in, or put up the gates first.
Had a drive-by shooting right in front of my
home office window in July. Unfortunately, a baby got shot in the head. I thought it was someone setting off cherry bombs or something - the pops were too close together I thought for gunfire. It was 2 girls and a stroller and they didn't even realize the baby had been shot at first. It was a big howdy-do. The cops were out here for hours, blocking off the streets so they could look for shell casings. A couple of news trucks too, although the subsequent TV news reports were somewhat inaccurate regarding the location and details. Never found out what happened to the baby.
Anyway, right after this happened, the guy and teenager kid across the street stayed away from their house for about 2 weeks after, coming by periodically to check on the mail. The cops would occasionally call on the house during that time. I never did find out what the deal was and if there was connection between these people and the shooting, but I always worry about a gang thing or a home invasion thing and they get the wrong house (mine).
OK. Now there are construction guys out front
using a big saw to cut through our new concrete sidewalks that have already been dug up twice since being put in this spring. I can't hear to work. They didn't even warn us of any construction or water shutoffs. How many times do they have to dig up the same old spot this year before they get it right?
One of those would be cool for my front porch. sm
I think I would leave it up all year and decorate it for the different seasons and leave it on all night. I used to know a lady a long time ago, giving away my age here, who had one and had it all decorated with crystal glass ornaments and red garland. I liked it but my mother said it looked like a tin can.
How did they get past the front desk and
where was security when they didn't take no for an answer the first time? Having worked in a psych facility (which has a higher level of patient confidentially) and tyring to be "forced" into giving information not able to be given, it became natural to just say no. NO ONE on my watch got the first hint of information they were not entitled to. People may want information but getting it is something different.
front tooth not sure about $$ but expect....nm
You are talking about front-end VR. Not very good.
Slow learning process for the rec engine. Very tedious.

You don't need a macro. Just add a semicolon in front of
your yo abbreviation so autocorrect will back up and take out that space. Then type 34;yo and it will expand to 34-year-old.
Sorry, don't have it in front of me, only have #2 and wait to hear from others, sorry, not sure!
I haven't sprung for #3 yet, I found #2 confusing enough, just do verbatim. I may have misspoken.
Front-end/back-end systems...
"Front-end" SR means that the original dictator's speech is turned into text. "Back-end" SR means that someone listens to the original dictator, redictating and "cleaning up" the original dication. This "sanitized" redictation is then fed into the SR engine.
The main disadvantage of "front-end" systems in the healthcare setting is that they must try to adapt to the speech peculiarities of many different dictators, whereas a "back-end" system only has to deal with the speech patterns of one dictator, namely the person who does the redictation.
Back-end dictation adds a layer of human intelligence to the conversion of speech to text because the person redictating presumably catches errors, eliminates hesitations and miscues, squares up ambiguous sentence structures, etc. - things that front-end dictation cannot do or does very poorly. As such, while the back-end speech engine might still cause some errors that require keyboard correction, there should not be nearly as many as front-end systems produce. And, a back-end SR application can be less sophisticated than a front-end system because it is not being required to deal with so many vagaries of human speech. In fact, a back-end SR application does not need artificial intelligence at all, whereas front-end SR really does.
Add a couple of zeros in front of .05 cpl and
Let the Indians get the CMTs and support AHDI. They're AHDI's little darlings (aka cash-cows), anyway.
