This morning I noticed an ad in The Orlando Sentinel about this new board which just opened yesterday. It's called the Sound-Off board where you complain about whatever you want. It seems pretty funny. It's at this page.

However, it has been soooooo hot here for a month.  I'm not just talking heat, we get 95 degrees with 86% humidity and even the kitchen floor is sticky under your feet. And that's with the AC on, choking in the background.  The humidity makes everything sticky.  115 degrees of dry heat is like oven heat.  95 degrees of humid heat is like a sauna and you feel as if you're sucking in water when you breathe.

But February. . . .nice and cool.  20 below 2 weeks in a row.  A good day might go up to 2 (that's degrees).  In February we can't wait for the hot humid weather.  In July we can't wait for snow, but not for February though, more like December when it's a nice 20 above.

OK, first click on Inscribe and get to the login screen, don't log in though.  Go to options and make sure it is set to "Windows Media".

OK, now go into your foot pedal and click on "Settings"  Go to the "Incoming" tab.  Click on the "add" botton at the bottom.  Then click the "computer Network Folder" and then click the "..." button.  Go into Local disk, Program Files, Emdat, then Inscribe.  Under Inscribe there should be a folder w/ your login name.  Click on that and then click  the "OK" button.  Now the file showing in the box beside " Computer Network Folder"  Should be a program file ending in your login ID. 

Now still in the "Incoming" tab go down where it says "Loading Mode"  Check the Automatic all files, and pick your interval time.  Mine is set on 2 minutes.  Next to that is a box for "File Types"  I have all checked just in case.  Now you click "OK" and it should work.  Took me a while to figure this all out but after messing with it for a few days I found the right things to do. 

Let me know if this made sense of if you need more help.  BTW, who do you work for that has Emdat, if you don't mind telling.

mom having an allergic/anaphylactic reaction.

Heart can't push the goo through.

Body went into shock.

She couldn't breathe.

Her blood began to clot.

Docs did emergency C-section in 6 minutes.

Then mom went to cardiac arrest.

Then another catastrophic thing happened.

Paula began hemorrhaging massively from every part of her body....from eyes, ears, nose, every incision, every bump and bruise.  All her blood clotting factors had been used up.

Docs poured blood clotting factors into her.

The baby's chances of survival were at 50/50. 

Mom was then noted to have unusual swelling in upper abdomen.

Surgeons reopened c-section.

Astonished to find 1 gal of clot-filled blood.  With the clots removed, her blood quit clotting.

Of the 10% of women who survive, most are brain-damaged. Only 1% survive without any damage.  She turned out to be in the 1% luckily.

A day later she was holding her baby and was OK.

=========

All this started with her first labor pain of her second child.  It was the leak of the amniotic fluid into her blood stream that caused her to immediately start to feel like her throat was "closing up" and she couldn't breathe (anaphylactic allergic reaction).  She passed out pretty quickly. 

Don't know about elsewhere in the US, but here in the east tonight is the night we turn our clocks ahead one hour. 

I had some pretty serious medical problems a year ago and was completely out of it from the middle of March to the middle of April so I have no recollection of time during that period.  Does anyone recall the exact date that we "sprang" forward last year?

He did his dictation at home I suppose and every night..."Daddy, stop talking, look at me".....for what seemed like hours on end.  Never took the child out, just let her screeeeeaaaam into the mic the entire time, while the wife talked in the background, oblivious to the child...I suppose she was glad someone was taking it off her hands. 

Two of my favories: Judging Amy and American Dreams, have both been cancelled. I'm down to ER now - can anybody point me at something that I should be watching? No HBO at our house, just regular satellite programming, broadcast channels. I started to get into Everwood last spring....

Working in WP 5.1 for DOS.  System is set up to automatically install Flash Forward when I boot up.  As the Flash Forward bar is running, it stops and gives me a pretty  blue flashing prompt saying "Attempt to add duplicate Abbreviation: blah, blah, blah.  Has anyone experienced this?  How do I get out of it?  I assume there must be some way to search for and delete the duplicate abbreviation, but beats me all to you-know-what.    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
