In Reply to: What were you doing when the WTC was attacked 5 yrs ago? - nm
I couldn't even find the words to explain - it was a little after 9. I was listening to, like the poster below, Bob and Sheri (on my way to Bible study - go figure) and Bob and Sheri were in a mood I had never, ever heard before. Very solmen. Describing word for what what they SAW. I didn't even know they were in NYC.
Anyways, I had to pull over as I started bawling. My younger son had taken an accompanied minor flight just a few days prior to that out of Dulles, so this hit quite close to home.
Anyways, we heard while in our Bible study (we decided to meet and pray for our country) about the other flights, but not flt. 93. We heard about that when our local newspaper (a giant) had people walking around McDonalds handing out FREE newspapers around 12 o'clock with pics and everything. The last time that newspaper did that was probably after JFK got shot. We were all scrambling for a paper which I still own to this day.
I remember my 9 year old son reading it in his room (I left it out like a dummie) and he cried like a baby for all those people on those flights who died. The WTC accident got to him the hardest. He still talks about it to this day. Tragic.
I don't know about you, but I do fear another attack like this again. It's hard not to.

My Norton antivirus is showing a red X on my email and I have no idea what happened. How do I fix
that.
THANKS MTStars! The See's Candy tin arrived.
I cannot wait to dive into it!
So MQ explains how they arrived at the increased production percentage for ASR.
It appears to be a good study with what was excluded. However, don't tell me about the opportunity for increased financial gain with this so called wonderful increased production of 30% when you decrease my pay by 20%. The only financial gain I can see in all this is in the profit margin for the company.
I was working in-house, but didn't know 'til I arrived. - sm
Was having the nicest, QUIETEST morning up until then, too! (Didn't realize this was largely due to no jets flying overhead, as I live along the flight path for both SFO and Oakland Int'l. airports.)
I believe the phone had rung around 6:00 AM, (my sister calling to ask if I'd heard the news), but I tuned it out, turned over, and went back to sleep. Never checked my messages, either. I never turn on the TV before work, and it as a gorgeous fall day. I lived near where I worked, and decided to ride my bike to work that day. As I was riding along a street that bordered a creek, I remember thinking was a PEACEFUL morning it was.
So I get to work, and as I arrive at my workstation, feeling all smiles & calmness and 'coombayah', a co-worker asks if I've heard what happened. I just assumed the system was down again, which happened often there.
So then she says, no - New York was attacked. I thought she was joking, and then my sister reached me and was breathlessly telling me what happened. She said a jetliner had hit the World Trade Center. 'How can that be an attack?' I asked, 'There must've been something wrong with the plane or the pilot or something.' But she said no, she was watching live coverage of the aftermath of the 1st tower on TV, and actually saw the 2nd plane hit the second tower. She'd called because she heard one was headed for San Francisco (the one that went down in Pennsylvania).
Anyway, for the next couple days it was weird to drive past SFO and see NO planes taxiing on the runway, and to pass it at night and not see the lineup of jet headlights headed from East to West towards the main runway. Although I have to admit it was rather nice not to have to listen to planes overhead for a couple of nights, now when I hear a jet, it's sort of a relief. If a long time passes where I don't hear a jet overhead, I start to get nervous......
Ordered a Dell with XP Sunday night, arrived here Wed morning!
This is my 3rd Dell computer over the years. My current one is more than 5 years old and is just getting a little slow and outdated, so my hubby the computer guru suggested I get a new one before you can no longer find XP. He is still getting it set up for me (I am pretty picky!). Been VERY happy with Dell. Never had a single problem with their computers. My current computer still has lots of life in it, so he is going to use it as a backup for his laptop. BTW, we went right to the Dell website and ordered. Good luck to you! 
Gals
What does gals mean? Is this slang or is this like saying girl friday or secretary or what? I have been referred to by this term quite a bit in the last year, so just wondering.
TenQ:)
Thanks gals *sm*
I think I get confused by it because I was thinking that "9 years ago" was referring to an experience and because the experience belongs to the person it would be possessive? I think I just put too much thought into it! lol! Nonetheless, I was getting it confused with forms such as 9 years' duration.
Most of the gals I know, myself included.....sm
love to get some really nice hand/body lotion, either in their favorite fragrance or something scented from a specialty shop. They usually sell for maybe $18-20 and that's just too much $$ to spend on our own hand creams! Either that or scented bubble baths, soaps, etc.
I give things like that to my friends all the time and I have one friend who has now actually come to expect a bottle of her favorite lotion every Xmas. :)
Yeah, plus we allow you gals...
to have sex with us! What more could U possibly want???
You gals should make a cookbook!!
I know, I know - not enough time! But just reading the subject lines makes my mouth water - it's my favorite forum!!
my dinners usually run along the peel an orange, toast a bagel, reheat a cup of coffee lines...no one to feed but myself!
What you missed regarding The View gals...
Absolutely nothing. They refused to provide Kathy with a clip from the show. She had drawings of the show, though, that basically showed Star Jones moving all the way to the end of the couch so as not to "catch Kathy."
Thanks... you guys/gals are awesome!...nm

I know for certain that the gals doing clinic work for my co. are ALL y oung - below 30 and there
are hundreds of them!!!
question for all you hobby loving gals
I'm making all my x-mas gifts this year, and I bought some plastic bottles and to decorate them I would like to make them look "frosted" because I just think it looks better. I have looked high and low on how to do this, i'm making scented lotion and I could not find anything on the net. Would you guys know how to do this? Hope I get some answers, thanks!
Any CAL GALS want to post on the state board for chatting?
Thought we could find out what town each from and the goings-on there. Good Idea? Retta the Rascal
You gals seriously make this kind of money? I am losing my job at the hospital
and thought I would never find a job that will pay that kind of money and its 14.50. I thought that was good!!!!! So you are telling me if I worked my tail off being an IC I could make more?? Break it down for me? How many hours a pay period, how many lines, how many cents per line?
I was actually regretting losing this job, but may be it is an opportunity.
I do love those younger gals though, the always pudgy ones in hip riders and too too tight tops.
so attractive with the roll hanging out.
Merry Christmas to all hard working guys & gals in the MT industry!

Late period, test negative, 1 week later my period arrived.
To be honest, when I did become pregnant, I knew it right away. Sounds weird, but I just knew and it showed up on HCG test at 4 weeks.
Sometimes, you just know! Good luck whatever results you have.
Exactly where would that be and what Bible do you have?
why, because they don't KNOW their Bible
which says it is good for ALL to marry, to avoid fornication, not to mention the perverts that go into the priesthood because they see it as an opportunity for abuse, by the structure of secrecy.
Living God's plan is not repressive, for 'the Truth shall set you free'. Satan will use you up and then spit you out when he's done. Chose whom you will serve, for you will either serve one or the other, God or Satan. As for my and my household, we will serve the Lord.
bible
I dont read your bible because I dont believe in your bible or religion.
According to the Bible ...
Proverbs 24:13 Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die.
Yep, that's what it says - King James Version. The word "beat" translated from Hebrew means to strike lightly or severely.
The BOS is not the MT Bible...Unfortunately,
too many have bought into it and believe it is the ultimate authority on anything grammar/format related. IT IS NOT!
It was written by some who have decided on their own to change many age-old rules. The second edition revised and reversed info from the first edition (and, yes, the BOS says I should use "1st" and "2nd" rather than spelling them out).
Thankfully, MOST doctors prefer basic grammar, punctuation and format rules and are not even aware of the BOS, let alone the AAMT.
Those who tell you otherwise are either misled or uninformed. There will be a third edition soon that will again reverse and revise . . . it's all about making money.
Stick to the basic rules you have learned throughout your life, and you should be fine . . . unless you run into a duped QA person.
the BOS is not our bible and many of us...nm
Not sure what Bible you have...
but mine says nothing of women in dresses only, only men working, women having long hair, etc. There are a sector of believers in my community where women only wear dresses, but high end clothes, their hair stays long, but it is really staylish, and they do work outside the home, in high positions actually. A lot of people take the Bible out of context. Jesus does not speak lowly of women at all, women were held in high esteem in their community and were given postitions of leadership in the church. A good book would be "What Paul Really Said About Women" by John Temple Bristow. This is a great eye opener for a lot of men as well who are taught to believe that women are somehow inferior to them.
The Bible says....
heaven and h-ell are even lowercase in the Bible.
Not everyone who follows the Bible is Catholic!!!
I wouldn't know about that. I'm not a priest nor do I have one.
How can it be against the Bible when it wasn't even
invented yet? You're saying that people who read their daily horoscope in the newspaper are against God and the Bible? It's not like we're smoking bidis, sniffing incense, and visiting the palm readers or fortune tellers. Entertainment purposes.
Please read YOUR bible.
I believe you might run across the saying Just Not Lest Ye Be Judged?
New study on MS and
Vitamin D, you can Google it. Are you in the great lakes area? Very common in that area. I don't have it but many of my relatives do including my 20-year-old neice - she's doing very well with treatment. Good luck
I say HA HA! Why not read the Bible. That is all you need to know for your life!

Not living in sin? Isn't homosexuality a sin according to the Bible?
Married or not.
careful ... the Bible says it's wrong, too! so
lol
sorry but the Bible isn't ignorant, dear.
might be careful of that violent tendency as well, all that hammering on someone's head.
besides, everyone here is entitled to their opinion.
No bible? No wine? Wait......
I, for one, choose death!
bible thumpers. god save us.
Ouchie! I think it's a Bible bump!
I have a lump on the back of my hand right in the spot where ganglions appear.  My father called them Bible Bumps because the doctors used to whack them with a large book such as a bible to break them up. This thing hurts like heck and my whole hand feels kind of stiff. Has anybody ever had one of these? I'm going to make an appointment to see about it but I've typed so many orthopedic reports I'm pretty sure that's what it is.
swallow study - sm
swallow study to check for safety in swallowing, to check for aspiration, swallowing problems, and what type of diet to give pte, puree, nectar thick, etc.
What is recommended to study for CMT?

Sleep Study
Get this: I had an appointment with the doctor this coming Wednesday to discuss a sleep study. Last Wednesday 2/1/06, his office calls me wanting to know if I was coming in because I was late for my appointment, and I reminded her that it was not that Wednesday but this coming Wednesday and she remembers and admits she got it wrong. This morning same girl calls to remind me of my Tuesday appointment!!!! Went through the same thing again and then she says, "Oh, yes. It is Wednesday. Can you come in Thursday? He's going to get called to the emergency department!!!" Uhhhhh did I miss something or is she clairvoyant on emergencies? This is why I do not go to the doctor unless it is absolutely necessary. I guess he has a golf game lined up.
That study used very old data.
EHR has come a long way since 2004.
CMT study workshops or
I am looking for some reputable websites for info regarding the CMT exam that also include study material. Any info would be greatly appreciated :)
Honestly, probably the best way to study for it
is to work, work, work.
Good luck!
Get a Sleep Study
It could be sleep apnea or narcolepsy. Yes, you can be healthy as a horse and still have sleep apnea or narcolepsy!
you are so right, but the book I prefer to open is the Bible (sm)
and I don't pretend to know it scripture for scripture, but I do now that somewhere it says something about soothsayers and psychics and such are a thing of evil and anyone proclaiming to know the future is of evil. So, I prefer NOT to educate myself on things of evil, we have enough of that forced down our throats everday! 
Not according to my NIV bible. It says even if you have lustful thoughts, they are considered sin.

You can hope the only thing that happens is that he drops a Bible

I'm not in the Bible Belt, o judgmental one, unless you don't know geography either. Another r
that is, if there isn't a good rerun of "I Love Lucy" on at the present time!
