It wouldn't load with my Office. Somehow it wouldn't "read" my 2003 Basic, although sm
technical couldn't find anything wrong with my software. They really tried hard. I see so many people that like Escription, I'm sorry not to be able to use it. Hopefully I can get Office Pro on my next machine, and maybe use it then. I could upgrade, but I'm still not sure it would work.
Shop around -- sm
If you don't need something fancy for work, you don't need a lot of the bells and whistles that come with a more exp computer. Dell is cheap though most other brands have lower-priced computers. I would look at Dell.com, Gateway.com, amazon, Best Buy and Circuit City. If you ask you might be able to bundle the printer/scanner/fax deal. Canon's are good, and i have a Brother. If you have more specific questions, feel free to e-mail.
Those are the reasons I do shop SM
at Target. I have a huge problem with the Salvation Army's practices (be our religion, go to OUR church, adhere to OUR values, or stay cold), I think our government ought to be the ones supporting the military since they sent them where they are, and as for supporting gay and lesbian rights, I think that is a good thing. I'm not sure exactly how you phrased that.
That's why I don't shop there anymore. sm
Years ago, they had this wonderful vanilla almond lotion. Discontinued. Then a delicious pineapple-mango lotion/body lotion/body butter. I bought it in everything they had. Discontinued. The last time did it for me. Why do they do that! 
shop around at the HP site for
small businesses - they have laptops with XP loaded that can be changed out for Vista at a later date if necessary. They worked this out with microsoft to bridge the gap between xp/vista, as companies are not so quick to jump to the change this time.
All prices.
WE go to a sandwich shop
and they call us by name; oh my goodness somewhat might know I'm there for a cheesesteak! I don't fret though! Because no one knows what I ordered.
I've seen other people's names on the lists at offices too, but I try to mind my own business... 
Only when the desktop has to go into the shop,
and I have to move operations over to the laptop. I just plug my regular keyboard in, which is a Microsoft Comfort Curve 2000. I like this keyboard; it's cheap, so when I inevitably kill it (I am hard on keyboards; must be a hold-over from having learned to type on a manual typewriter back in the stone age) it doesn't cost a lot to replace. (I'm on my second one.) And it has a decent enough touch. The curve is just enough to straighten my wrists out to a neutral position, but not so much that I feel like I'm typing on an alien machine.
Just wondering where you'll shop...
I think Wal-Mart's changes in hiring and benefits is dispicable. Wal-Mart is all we have in the small town we're in. Will you shop at K-Mart or Target, and what store for food? I'll have to go about 30 miles for the nearest K-Mart, but I feel that strong about not shopping at Wal-Mart. I always liked how they had the food store in with the regular retail store, so I'll have to find a grocery store too.
Thanks!
Fine, you shop where you want to and I'll do the same
nm
I know, those all make me want to shop at Target
in my state, there is also this to contend with:

Jees. Ya can't win for losing, can you?
Still shop at Target at little bit (*never* Walmart), but I'm really going to try to make it much more exclusively Costco now.
Ask your local bike shop sm
They have the most bicycle knowledge and are truly helpful. If you can afford to get one, a bike shop bike would be much more practical (and able to actually be repaired) versus a mass-market store bike.
Check to see if there is a consignment shop...
in your area, especially if the children are small, as they outgrow everything so quickly. These are "gently used" clothing at way less than the original price, and are usually listed in the Yellow Pages.
Spi opens shop in Vietnam
The latest newsletter states Spi (formerly Cymed) has opened up shop in Vietnam. I guess they have run out of shops in India and the Philippines. I asked a vet if they speak any better English than the other two and he said NO. I guess I give up on finding a good QA position with headquarters in the good old US of A.
Sweat shop labor
We can all clearly see the run around by various layers of quality control when work goes offshore, and what it really costs. But the thing is that as more and more corporations offshore their products, they are able to skirt strict regulations in the U.S. For instance, as we already see the advantage of India doing transcription while we sleep here in the US, they don't have labor laws as we do. A corporation here in the US dealing with American workers has to deal with lots of regulations such as labor laws, state compensation for injuries for employees, etc. These regulations cost money to the company. In countries like India, China, the Phillipines, there are no labor laws such as in the U.S. If a company says a worker must work 12 hours a day with no benefits or breaks, you can be sure these people will do this, and are sometimes grateful where no job existed before. If working conditions are intolerable, there is no agency that protects the people. You can see how American corporations are motivated to send work offshore and not deal with US regulations and laws that cost the company money. Yes, exploitation at its finest. However, I saw a documentary recently by Lisa Ling on TV where it showed that many women in third world countries are becoming increasingly dissatisfied with working conditions. The documentary followed different women and what they must do to have a job in the city. Many women leave their children far away in another city at home with the grandparents. These women travel and live in the city to work for a few dollars a day. They must work weekends, holidays, and may travel back home once a month to give the money they make to their families. These women were interviewed and were questioning whether having a job far away from a rural town was worth it with no time off for the holidays, and missing their children and families. So you see, these people are getting restless too, and want time off on their holidays and family time just as much as we do. I have no doubt in time there were be a rising in advocacy for labor laws in these countries.
Wouldn't that mean that you simply wouldn't have to print out everything?
That's ridiculous. You won't shop at Walmart for something that you think you heard
that may or may not be true. You know I'm not a regular Walmart shopper but this is just plain stupid trying to smear a company that employs thousands of older and unfortunate Americans who may not have a job without Walmart. What's your beef with Walmart that you would post junk like this?
Rumor, truth, whatever, I'll still shop
at Wal-Mart because that's where I can afford to go. 
Shop for a "USB to game port adapter".
Staples, Radio Shack or Office Max should have them. ebay should have them. If not, Google for a seller.
Did anyone watch Frontline last night? I will NEVER shop in Wal-Mart again.
Cheap prices will not mean a thing if the middle class U.S. population is out of work. I'd rather see my neighbors with a job and pay Target prices
I read in McCalls once that you don't tip for hair if it is owner of shop.

My friends with large families shop at Walmart. I don't. I can't compare
prices or taste. These are not ignorant poor folk who don't know better shopping at Walmart. Walmart has definitely cut into the supermarkets business. Bottom line here folks, people are making Walmart successful and they keep growing. Not for nothing are people shopping at Walmart. They have to be offering something to the shopper.
Any tattoo shop mostly, hot topic, sally's beauty supply...SM
Any place that pierces, head shop, etc. Hope that helps.
Awesome! Here, a local computer repair shop has a similar commercial. Its really funny. nm

I do! I usually get mine at The Body Shop and Bath and Body Works. Thanks for posting that link. Do

I have never been asked to show a receipt at Walmart. Is the Walmart you shop in a bad neighborhood
And the expensive stuff has an alarm on it for the cashier to take off. No receipt check. Just a greeter saying good-bye.
Might be able to rent one from an office supply or office machine repair shop

Is there ONE pedal I can buy that will work with ALL platforms? And where do I shop for a pedal?

Shop around before getting cobra. If you are leaving a job, you can get cobra. I am in the process
Cobra is almost $600 for you and children, I found a month to month coverage by shopping on internet, covers 2 visits a year (I only need it 3 months) and is less than $300. Less expensive coverage than cobra is out there
sure she wouldn't
I am sure that you will always have control over your daughter and her behavior, even when you aren't around. And if she ever does act differently than you believe she would and has some serious consequences because of it, I guess you guys will just deserve it. Right?
I wouldn't
unless you had been scammed by her. SOunds like plenty of people have already called, that have had real dealings. Up to you I guess.

count my chickens before they hatch. It's way hard to get a line count when you type a report or 2, sit and wait for an hour or 2 for another report to come up, etc. etc. If you get 200 lines in a day at 9 cpl, why that adds up to a whopping $18.00.
Good luck, you're gonna need it.
I wouldn't, but that's just me.
There are many ways to serve one's country. It is not necessary to be in the military to assume a role of protecting and helping your fellow countrymen.
I would no sooner turn back if I had heard the story you speak of than I would if I was a soldier in Iraq amid all the suicide/car bombings.
It's all about character. A soldier has no choice; it's his job; he has to stay. If a civilian will take the chance of being robbed of his material possessions to help those who are fighting for mere existence, to me that is a true American.
I wouldn't let her do this!
JMHO, of course, but your daughter's life is worth way more than what it will cost you to pick her up each day.
New drivers, young kids, NO WAY; recipe for disaster.
My daughter is 15, and her friends will all be driving before her, and she thinks she's gonna be riding to and from school with them---wrong! I know it's hard and this seems much easier, but right now, I'd keep shuttling her home! She's your baby, after all!

I am with the poster who says follow your instincts. You have the answers within yourself. Listen to your own gut feelings. You are there watching the situation. We will only inject our own beliefs, fears, and experiences. Plus we aren't there to see what's actually happening. You wouldn't post if there were not a valid concern. I wouldn't allow it just because of the germs. Even if I felt it was harmless, I would have him shower first before bathing with a female child. Just because of the possibilty of passing germs. I wouldn't bath with my daughter because I didn't want the possibilty of a yeast infection passing to her when she was an infant or toddler.
That's just my opinion, however. You really have to listen to your own voice on issues like this one. Best wishes.

I wouldn't
I went with them for a short period of time. I asked for PT to make sure we had a "fit" but they said they only hire PT. I took the FT and for the first 9 days had absolutely no work, one report per day. They said they couldn't give me a backup until I was off QA, yet I couldn't get off QA until I had enough reports. Also they promise a training bonus on the first check and I did not get it and had to write to the Attorney General.
I wouldn't buy anything until I know what the
company I work for wants me to have. You could spend a lot of money on equipment you won't need. Another thing you might need is a C-phone or something like that, but some companies provide those too. Just wait until you know what you'll need for where you work.
If you are IC, I wouldn't think so. nm

wouldn't let me put it on lol
100% agree is what that should have read

My six-year-old still wears the Goodnites at nighttime. I tried allowing him to wear underwear to bed, but it just interrupted his sleep and my sleep to get up change him, change the bed, etc., etc. Sometimes boys take a little longer to be dry all night. My nephew was that way and I remember growing up my brother was that way as well. My honest opinion is why put yourself through lack of sleep for everyone involved. My son goes to the bathroom right before bedtime. Sometimes he wakes up dry, sometimes he doesn't. I would be more concerned with staying dry and clean during waking hours.
No I wouldn't.

Wouldn't say that....
Guilt makes you do odd things and is usually where you trip up.

convert the disk for some reason. I think there is something wrong with the CD. I'm not sure.
I wouldn't use it.
It takes all of two seconds for me to type in the time I'm at if needed for a blank. I wouldn't buy software to do it for me.
I wouldn't. sm
I've been an MT now for a year. I went to one of the big schools and I have learned so much in the year I've worked. Really, you may feel completely confident and ready coming out of your course, but it is so different once you are really working. There are small details of this job that just cannot be taught 'in the classroom'.
Sorry, but it really is not feasible. Even if you didn't mind taking a hit financially I'd not want to be responsible for the mistakes you will inevitably make as a inexperienced MT.
Also, even at a lower rate I would think most doctors/hospitals are going to see your lack of any 'real world' experience to be a huge red flag.
Another thing is that though I'm not running my own MT business, I'm guessing it isn't something you can just 'do on the side'. If you can't quit your current job to work in-house you are probably not going to be able to have the time to run your own MT business. If you are a sole IC for a doctor/hospital that means no vacation, no weekends, no nothing so long as that doctor/hospital has reports to be typed. You'd be on call 24/7 for any stat reports, ect.
My advice would be to REALLY think about what you are considering doing.
We wouldn't be
We could not go into their country and do anything - so it is doubtful that the shoe would ever be on the other foot. I had a friend who tried to get work in Mexico as an MT - but she found that she had to learn Spanish - so she gave it up and moved to Alaska. Eskimo transcription.
I wouldn't have known but...
My neighbor came knocking at my door after the first plane hit and told me to turn on my TV. Just as I did the second plane hit. I moved the TV to my office for the rest of the day.
You know what, though? My DH, who works outside the home, did not have a clue until I called him.
I wouldn't do it.

If you were looking, wouldn't you want to know
prospective employer? If you're looking for a job, you are interviewing them just as much as they're interviewing you.

have anything else. My internet has never been down for technical problems, only a weather-related ice storm that knocked out all power for several days. What I like about it is that you don't have to have a tech come to your house; merely make a phone call and a tech will walk you through your problem right then and there so no time is lost. Most I've waited on hold was a matter of minutes. My modem did go out about 1-1/2 years ago, but they brought a new one to my home and got it up and running the next morning, as I recall.
I have the most expensive internet, which is their fastest rate and wouldn't have anything else ($34.99). I would highly recommend it over any cable company! Good luck!
I wouldn't have said anything either...sm
Do we tell them how many employees they can hire??
I sure wouldn't. VR will end up doing most, SM
of the typing there, too, leaving document editing work. In court reporting, that would be a lower-skill-level work (while learning MT, I also had to transcribe legal depositions from tapes, which required no special training beyond standard office skills--definitely not like trying to do MT). If this turns out to be the case, it's going to pay significantly less as the current high skill level will simply cease to matter. Sorry.
