To romey and ANIMAL ADVOCATE...see inside please:
Just copy and paste into your browser (with whatever video player you have)...
Do not get side-tracked with your feeling about peta...
One is narrated by Alec Baldwin. (I have mixed feelings about peta, but these videos do not lie, and if you research for yourself you realize the government more and more allows this hideous behavior to SAVE money - again, it is all about the money).
I have watched it once, and half with my eyes closed. Call me whatever you like, but I sobbed at the cruelty.
The other is about a (huge) grocery chain we have here in WNY.
A few months ago I became a vegetarian to lose weight...but still ate eggs, cheese, some poultry.
Since the day I watched these videos, because of my conscience, I have not touched a piece of meat or poultry.
I refuse to contribute to this inhumanity, no matter how it is justified...

If there was one, I would belong to the humanitarian party...forget republicans, democrats, etc.

Please note my response to your query waaaay below where the original thread started, again thanks for your interest.
devil's advocate
Devil's advocate, you need to quit catering to the little whiners and let them stand on their own two feet once in a while and realize that life is not ALWAYS, ALWAYS about them. You sound like someone who caters to their every little whim and likes to protect them from all the "meanies" of the world, and very likely you would think that included me, because I'd like kids these days to be more independent and not so reliant on their doting, catering, overly protective nannies -- oops i meant mommies. Yeah you have a point, but it's a small one, and you are missing the BIGGER point, which is what the OP indicated by having an independent vacation. Get real.
MTStars position is clear. We do not advocate the offshoring of
American private health information. This has nothing to do with products made overseas and sold in stores, etc. This is about how services are treating American medical records as a trade commodity when they should not be.
Since you have recently become an advocate for these "well-educated" professionals....
please justify the 20 minutes I had to sit and listen through all because the doc left his hand held recorder on. I actually had to sit there and listen to him urinate AND defecate! Immediately after hearing the toilet flush, I could hear the door open and then several footsteps that led him to meet, greet, and converse some more. I was more appalled at the fact that such a "well-educated" medical professional didn't care enough to wash his germ infested hands after his restroom break. Unbelievable.
thanks, romey
articulate...and common sense, I like it (smile!)
thanks romey!!!!
 And its as addicting as six feet under. I hope they have it out on dvd so I can fill in on all the episodes I missed. -animal advocate
Thank You Romey
Thank You so much for sharing your knowledge and information with a fellow MT. You are super!!!!!
Romey is right
I have had success with Phentermine in the past, as it gives you tons of energy, and you have to learn how to direct that energy into exercising to obtain the maximum benefit. I believe the recommended time frame is to take it for 6-8 weeks, then I've heard other people will take a 2-3 week break from it, then go on it again. I really like to use it to jump start an exercise program, which then kicks in my motivation to start eating healthier also. 
Romey-Thanks so much! (NM)
Much appreciated.
Oops, this was to go to Romey, sorry! nm

Thanx Romey ... I loves me some Dr. House! - nm
Romey, some docs will say square meters
meters squared, but it's all the same. The reason you would write 400 mg/sq m this way is because the slash mark stands for "per." If the slash mark was between the sq and m, you'd have square per meter. Now that doesn't make sense, right?
Attention: Romey - Question about Aeron chair (sm)
You had answered my previous post concerning the Aeron chair and I am really convinced that I want one. But how comfortable is the seat after several hours? I am sick of foam that packs down. I bought a molded gel cushion that looks like a honeycomb, but even this gets "hard" after a while. Would appreciate your comments.
Agree with Romey. I use dog Frontline - split one tube between my 4 cats.

Pictures
The problem is though I am quite knowledgable about the software, computer, working had, transfering files, etc. when it comes to fun things I know nothing. So my nephew is going to E-mail me the pictures and then I guess I will just E-mail them to anyone that wants to look at them. He is getting back from Bible camp on Saturday and promised me he would get them over to me. I don't have a digital camera and so if he doesn't by Saturday, my neighbor told me I could borrow his and take some but they are coming. Will especially take some pics of my lilies that came up late this year and are beautiful. But thanks to all of you for asking. Seems like I only use my computer for work, work, work and never anything fun. I bet I am not alone in that. Take care, it is going to be hot here in Portland up to 101 to 105 and so going to the beach Fri/Sat.

Since I work so much on my computer like the rest of you, I don't use for fun very much but I had my newphew take some digital pics and he is going to E-mail them to me and I will see if I can get them posted somewhere so you can all see what it is like. You will probably be disappointed as I do not have one of those million dollar floating home, just simple in need of paint this summer but it is mine.

little pictures
off the subject, but how do you do the little pictures off to the side of postings? so cute! i love yours!
Don't you know that on TV and in pictures everything
looks much, much better than in reality?
The Doctors TV is a show sponsored by Dr. Phil.
I have never seen so many advertisements interrupting this show with the doctors.
Manymaking machine!
I like this one. We have some family pictures, but
those are for everyone, not just for her birthday. I do have some restaurant gift certificates, so I think I'll take her out to lunch. Thank you for all of the suggestions.
I'd have taken pictures when you were done cleaning.
They just think they can rip you off. They obviously didn't have to clean a darned thing! (And I don't even know you, but believe your description of things) :)
You could also try resizing the pictures.
If you're using Outlook, when attaching the picture to the email, you should have attachment options that allow you to choose to send the picture in a smaller size.
Is rad a whole different animal (sm)
when it comes to transcribing it? I would like to expand my specialties, but have never done rad before. Any info would be appreciated! Also, can it be learned just by doing, or would I need more thorough training, i.e.; more schoolin'? 
Please post some pictures. I think there were more that were interested than just
a few that seemed to be jealous and resentful. I think it sounds wonderful. I don't like cold winters, but would love to see what your house on water would look like.
 That is me green with jealousy.
Where are those pictures or you house and area?

To make little pictures aka Avatar ID:
Hi Just Me! To get yourself a little picture (avatar) you have to click on the "Post reply to this message" button below. Then, where it says Profile ID, click on the [Create/Edit] Profile/Avatar ID. From there, you can select one of their avatars from the boards avatar gallery by clicking on "Show Gallery." Pick one, fill out the rest of the profile info, and your set. OR if you want to use your own picture, you can use something from your own computer by finding the picture you want and going in and editing it to be 100 x 100 pixels or 12 kb, whichever is easiest/looks best. Once you've resized the photo you want to be your avatar save it, remember the name you saved it as and where it's located, and click the BROWSE button to pull that file name back up. Then, scroll down to the end and click on the "Click here to submit" button and you should be good to go.
Anytime you want your avatar to show up, you just have to fill in that Profile ID box with your profile name when you reply to a sponse. You only ever have to go into it to edit it when you want to change your picture. Hope that's not too confusing! 
send the pictures one at a time. nm

Have you ever been e-mailed pictures of someone in your company
and then wish you hadn't looked?
Yes, I've seen many pictures of all those Indians and their

animal update
i am the OP on thread below re CRUELTY CLARIFICATION and just wanted to say thank you to all who responded .... have not recently come across a such a large, and largely POLITE - WOW!!!!!! -- and informative group in a long time. this information will stay with me for a long time and i plan to share it with others. did not know how ignorant i was. am not by any means a bleeding heart. it's a tough world and you have to be tough -- but the way we apparently treat these animals in the year 2005 is PATHETIC, just pathetic, and there is simply no need for it.
to those who say 'but this is a consumer-driven industry," yep you are right, but you know what? consumers like to be INFORMED. we don't like to feel that someone or some entity is trying to pull a fast one on us, and i STRONGLY feel that if every child in america -- and the child's uninformed parents and grandparents -- KNEW the real deal, the pressure would be on IMMEDIATELY and things would change in the industry faster than martha stewart's gonna get out of her ankle bracelet. Before anyone says Yeah but there goes the economy, well i don't think so because if i knew that i could get chix at the store from happy chickens versus what we are 'offered' now, as well as happy cow meat (look at how successful the California dairy industry has been on their little ad campaign, hmmmmm?) vs what we have now, i'd be willing to pay more. not double, but more! i think anyone except the poorest of the poor would, too. and the same government that is subsidizing the cruel farm animal conditions could subsidize the poor for their better quality meat, instead.
anyway, those are my thoughts. i really really appreciate all of you smart people telling me something i didn't know, and that's no bull. great big kudos to all of you who kept the thread polite, too. 'night.
OT: for animal lovers

why keep your animal on a chain 24/7
Going off topic from your cat post for a minute... I never understood that..especially with dogs. I think it is cruel for a dog to be chained 24/7 with someone who will rarely walk it.
As far as your cat, we have had outside cats since I was a little girl and they always came back. In fact, I had one (an old "barn cat") that would leave for months at a time lol and come back.
Keep your hopes up and don't stop looking!
Animal question...sm
I was always under the impression that cats had to be at least 6 months old before they could be "fixed". I was on the SPCA website for our area last evening reading their info and it said kittens older than 6 weeks must be spade or neutered within 6 weeks of adoption. Isn't that a little young?
Just curious.
Animal contacts
If you are in need of a veterinary ophthalmologist, it is best to check with your local vet to see if there is one in the area. Animals do not wear contacts for the obvious reasons. Instead, they get lens transplants from donor animals that were healthy when euthanized (sad I know). There are also Doggles sun glasses that dogs wear.
It's not like he's posting porn site pictures.
Admin will get around to deleting him again. However, it sounds like Sam is not being consistent with his IP address, which makes it tough to ban someone. Besides, we could be with he and hab job and coffee.
I agree. I think we all wish she'd just post her house pictures and get it over with!
I have a printer that prints pictures very nicely sm
do you think I'm good to go without the dock? thanks!
do you have stanley photography do your school pictures? nm
;
The tiny lettering was difficult for me to see and no pictures! LOL sm
I'm kidding about the pictures.
Do you think its handier to have the book on your desk or the program at the click of a mouse? Thanks for your reply!
If you are an animal lover - then please don't take Prempro - sm
I worked in a gynecologist's office for 8 years. It was beyond dispicable when the Wyeth drug rep would come in. This was at the time when TV shows were always doing the "hidden camera" things - and of course, the pregnant horses, abuse, catheterizing, etc. This also came at a time when drug reps were no longer allowed to use company money to take docs on trips, expensive dinners, theater tickets, etc. Needless to say, our Wyeth rep made a bundle off of Premarin and Prempro and to make up for all the media hype, she was going to all the gyn docs and sending them on trips, spa packages for their wives, nice dinners, etc. And the docs kept prescribing it.
Agree...no animal has to suffer for me...
I have been using the wild yam - so far, so good. ?
fellow animal lovers/MTs
boycott Iams pet food - they have been charged of horrible animal cruelty in testing their food, see web site below.
www.peta.org/
Call Animal control
Okay then, should you kill every animal that scares you be it a dog or - sm
or a cat....does not make sense. They are animals, they just want to be left alone. Some people scare me sometimes, should I go out and shoot them? People need to be a bit more tolerant. I am not a huge fan of snakes either but I will never understand the killing of any animal unless it is for food or if the animal attacks.
well, I am NOT obsessing over animal rights! sm
What exactly are you doing to make the world a better place? Discussing the killing of dogs in another country sure does help, yeah, uh huh...get over yourself
Got pictures? If so, take 'em to small claims court!
I took my pics and the signed walk-through with me. They were smug throughout, but I won and they had to return a BUNCH of my deposit! It pays to have a rather suspicious minds these days, I guess!
All animal lovers - check this out. Made me cry.

There is a natural order in the animal world
that does not include mankind. Those animals which are debilitated, old or very young become food for other carnivorous animals. It is population control and also keeps disease at bay as the animals carrying disease are attacks, killed and taken out of the picture. Also, stops bad blood lines as those animals with hip dysplasia from in breeding or the weak and runts are also food for the natural predator.
