Tech Tip 

Home and End Button

  Notice those keys in the upper right of your keyboard?  The Home key will jump your cursor to the beginning of a line and the End key will jump to the end of the line.  If you hit the home key while holding the ctrl key (ctrl+home), the cursor will jump to the beginning of the document.  ctrl+end will go to the end of the document.  

Also:  shift+end will highlight to the end of the line.  Then while holding the shift key continue to highlight by using the arrow keys.  

Summer Ideas

 

  • It seems like more of use are having to consider knee surgery.  You might want to try a virtual knee surgery first.

  • Have kids at home this summer that need something to do?  Surely you can find something @ All Kids. Be careful, you might even find something you can use at school next year?

  • Really bored?  Try the fun stuff on bored.com
