I had a similar situation with my "old" tile and a rug staining it.

I sprinkled Oxiclean/hot water mixture over a small part, then sprayed it again with very warm water...waited 10 minutes, went back in and the stain was very easily wiped away.  Hope it helps on yours.

I only use the good ol Oxi with 5% carpet shampoo and you've never seen carpets cleaner ..Hope this works for you.

Indulge me while I stare at computer screen waiting for Q work that isn't there.

I love spaghetti but only served with a great salad with olive oil and some garlic bread. Can't have pasta alone.  And needless to say a glass of red wine.  No dessert, just extra spaghetti.

Dirty Dancing, Ever After, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.

But also like The Wedding Date, all the Harry Potters, Dead Poets Society.  LOVE It's a Wonderful Life - watch it every Christmas.

Bytescribe wav player.  I've tried Express Scribe and Start Stop.  Express Scribe doesn't have good sound, and Start Stop was very buggy.  I've heard the older versions are better.  I bought mine in December 2005.  Wouldn't work right after several install/uninstalls.  Tech support couldn't help me.  I didn't have time to send it back before while it was eligible to return.

I play DSS files, and there's a trick to getting DSS files to play really really well on a Bytescribe.  Bytescribe wav player was made for wav files.  You can email me if you want to know how to do this or call Bytescribe.  They have another program you can use that converts DSS to Wav files.  It's already on your computer if you use the Wavplayer.

I would recommend Bytescribe if you're playing Wav files and Olympus DSS player pro if you're playing DSS files, although I've never tried DSS player pro but heard it's good.

I think it's worth the money to invest in a good player.  It will pay for itself over and over again in productivity and less mistakes because you can hear better.  It also pays to have a very good sound card on your computer, especially if you're on a laptop. 

woman came in with shortness of breath and difficulty breathing after eating p___is.  It was supposed to be after eating "peanuts." 

I really do love doing PT and OT except when they do their discharge summaries.

Why?  Because they have to list how many treatments, no-shows, and cancellations the patient had.

most of the time dictators have this information gathered before they dictate, but there's this one woman who constantly has us listen as she turns each page and counts up the totals.  So basically we hear "patient was seen... page turn 1, page turn 2, page turn 3, etc., until she gets to the total number of visits, (which can sometimes get upwards of 40!)

then she starts over turning pages and adding up the no-shows

and THEN she starts over turning pages and adding up the cancellations

I have one guy, who really seems nice, thank's you each time at the end of the report, apologises if he has to correct something he said, long reports, BUT, he usually dictates at home, while cooking,bathing the kids and NOW, we must have a new dog because we are deciding to train it while dictating .

It's a verbat account so I really should have put in all the "sits, stays, good dog..would  have made a fortune.

BUT (again), if it were'nt for the fact that the ER he works in is over 140 miles away, I'd have been in the ER, requesting him, to treat me for my ruptured ear drum, when he must have forgot the doggie treats and this dog started barking, loud, blew my eardrums out, had to crank the volume wayyyyyyyyy down, could NOT hear him, except for the good dog's and sit, I'll play later

Hi

My season is definitely fall.  I am up here in northern Maine and it is so pretty with the leaves changing, etc.  Of course then comes all the snow - and I don't even mind the cold or the snow but since I am getting to be "old and brittle" I am scared of the ice.  However, I really am looking forward to October. 

I love House, Y&R, and B&B..so I do lunch at around 1:00 to catch the end of Y&R and all of B&B. 

Other than that, I really don't have time for TV.  I try to watch House while in the bed on Tuesday nights, but usually end up falling asleep somewhere in the middle of the show and have to ask my son what happened...
