How can i make Microsoft Word look more like the windows version I'm used too. (self.apple)
submitted 3 years ago by pivv0t
I grew up with a PC In the classroom and at home so all of my papers were written with Microsoft word for PC. Now, I have a Mac with Microsoft word but its a little difficult navigating the screen trying to get the correct margins, spacing, and font.
Is there any way I can make it look similar to the PC version?
[–]alcal 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (1 child)
There's no way to change the look/organization of the program. Just spend a little time exploring it, all the same functionality is there.
[–]pivv0t[S] -1 points0 points1 point 3 years ago (0 children)
Actually, after some digging I found that you can get rid of a toolbar that helps.
Thanks for the comment though!

Empirical Likelihood for Compound Poisson Processes
Acknowledgements. The authors would like to thank two reviewers for their helpful comments. Li's research was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (11201207). Zhou's work was partially supported by a grant R-155-000-095-112 at the National University of Singapore.

Let {N(t), t > 0} be a Poisson process with rate λ > 0, independent of the independent and identically distributed random variables with mean μ and variance . The stochastic process is then called a compound Poisson process and has a wide range of applications in, for example, physics, mining, finance and risk management. Among these applications, the average number of objects, which is defined to be λμ, is an important quantity. Although many papers have been devoted to the estimation of λμ in the literature, in this paper, we use the well-known empirical likelihood method to construct confidence intervals. The simulation results show that the empirical likelihood method often outperforms the normal approximation and Edgeworth expansion approaches in terms of coverage probabilities. A real data set concerning coal-mining disasters is analyzed using these methods.

"Wow! I am love with John Puller!"
I read them out of order; 2nd book, The Forgotten, I read first and loved Baldacci's new character, John Puller. Then when I read the synopsis for his new book, The Escape, about his brother Bobby, I had to read it as well. Couldn't wait to read his story of treason and escape from the inescapable prison. Next I read all the controversy about his first book of the series, Zero Day being a copycat of Lee Childs! Well that's just silly when you follow this thrilling well thought out series. I just finished it and I give the books all 5 star reviews! I highly recommend this new series and can't wait to see what the Puller men pull off next. ;-)
Superman in uniform... Always being superior, always the best in the room, always perfect... Small talk seems forced, dialogue trivial, over all story line mostly ridiculous.... I think I might rather have listened to golf on the radio!
I've listened to a lot of this writers books and generally consider him to be one of the better writers, but this book I had to force myself to finish...
I would not recommend this one to anyone.
"Great performance."
Really enjoyed Zero Day.
Having two narrators was a nice surprise and really added to the enjoyment of the book.
Say something about yourself!
I could not get over how TERRIFIC the narration was. Have forgotten what a GREAT team of readers can do with a book. Plus I really enjoyed the story. Usually you have some idea of what is going to happen next --- but not here! And the characters have more depth and complexity than one usually finds in this genre. Can't wait to read the next two.
"Not great."
Wanting something better.
Return it.
Not what I was used to reading left a lot to be desires. And so.
A great book. Book 2 of puller up next!
I couldn't wait to continue listening.
My first book by Baldacci. Not my last.
"Not so good"
I have a hard time believing this was written by a seasoned author. It was absolutely corny. I will give the next book a try.
"Save yourself hours and skip to chapter 95"
Add suspense by it at least hinting toward what gets revealed in chapter 95
Not sure. Pretty let down. Gotta spend my credits wisely.
Fitting for characters
Yeah as long as the screen writer re writes it to add in the other side of story.
Could have been so much better.
"An OK espionage book. Just lacking something"
The first few books of Baldacci were amazing. Now anytime I try to get back into his writing it seems a little too cookbook. Narrator was good for the type of book and having two narrators were even better. I was hoping for a leap to the past to his original books. This was note quite it. Not bad though and if you love espionage genre this will be better than most. Just not good enough for me to go to another Baldacci book. Off to another author.

The Spectacular Rise Of Joe Manganiello
He's so, so, SO hot right now.
1. He used to look like this
2. Then he grew up a bit
3. And was all cute and cuddly
4. Until he played Flash Thompson in "Spiderman"
5. And got all jock-y on "Scrubs"
6. Then was stabbed in "CSI: Miami"
7. And got his beautiful face bruised on "ER"
8. Then he was cuddly again on "How I Met Your Mother"
9. Where we got to see a little skin
10. After that he was on "One Tree Hill"
11. Where he showed a lot of skin
And it was great.
12. Then he grew his hair and beard, and became a werewolf
13. And looked like this
14. Since then he has posed with a rifle…
15. In little red shorts…
16. In blue shorts…
17. With a giant tire…
18. With girls in bikinis…
19. And with himself
Which is just fine.
20. He knew what we wanted to see in "What to Expect when You're Expecting"
Via chanceplus1.com
(His Bod)
21. And didn't disappoint at the MTV movie awards…
22. Which made everyone want to take advantage of this:
23. Now he's in "Magic Mike," where we'll see him do MORE of that:
24. And hopefully more of this
25. This
26. This
27. This

Focus: Premier asset sales fail to quell concerns
Premier Foods plc, the UK food group, today (6 July) announced another asset sale. It has sold ethnic flour business Elephant Atta to Associated British Foods, its latest disposal of businesses it deems "non core" as it looks to strengthen its finances. There are some concerns, however, that the deals already announced - and those in the offing - will be enough to ease the pressure on Premier. Dean Best reports.

What's the difference between following D.C. politics and watching a mockumentary about D.C. politics? Lately, it's hard to tell. And as it enters its second season, that's good news for Veep, which continues to milk Washington's real-life cringe comedy for jokes. As Selina (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) deals with the fallout from a disastrous round of midterm elections — somehow, platitudes like "There is no I in freedom. Freedom is not me-dom, it's we-dom!" didn't help her party win — she accidentally makes a weird double entendre while swearing in a new senator. (Shades of Biden's "Spread your legs, you're going to be frisked!" quip.) Caught tweeting during a grave announcement, she inspires a meme that shows her checking her phone at inappropriate moments throughout history. (Someone's been reading Texts From Hillary!) When her daughter posts a controversial diatribe online, she tells her assistant Gary (the great Tony Hale), "Get some towels, I may need to daughter-board her." (Somewhere, John McCain is shaking his head in sympathy.) They say comedy is just a way of telling the truth faster than real life can, and that's the case here: The wit is rapid-fire, and keeping up with Louis-Dreyfus as she sprints between appointments, all shaken up like a soda bottle about to explode, is good fun. But the humor is so meta, it's easier to find yourself thinking "This is funny" than actually laughing. And oddly, Veep's mock-doc vibe makes it feel less real. If everything's being filmed, why isn't Selina more careful about what she does in front of the camera? C'mon, writers. Give a little more credit to you-dom and me-dom. B

Marathon by Christian Cameron
Arimnestos of Plataea grew up wanting to be a bronze-smith, like his father. Then, in the chaos of war, he was taken to a city in the Persian empire and sold as a slave. To win his freedom he had to show that he could fight and kill. Now, to preserve that freedom, he must kill again. For the Persians are coming. A vast army sent by King Darius to put down the rebellious Greeks and burn the city of Athens to the ground. Standing against them on the plain of Marathon, a much smaller force of Athenians, alongside their Plataean allies. To defeat such overwhelming force seems impossible. And yet to yield would mean the destruction of everything the Greeks have dreamed of. In the dust and heat of Marathon, in the clash of shields and the rush of spears, amidst the thunder of hooves and the screams of the dying, those dreams will undergo their fiercest test - and Arimnestos and his Greek comrades will discover the true price of freedom.

Salix 14.2 Xfce Edition Officially Released Based on Slackware 14.2, Xfce 4.12
After being in development for the past three months, the Salix 14.2 Xfce Edition operating system has finally hit the stable channels, and it is now available for download. Based on the Slackware 14.2 GNU/Linux distribution and built around the lightweight and highly customizable Xfce 4.12 desktop environment, Salix 14.2 Xfce Edition ships with numerous improvements and new features that some of you who managed to test-drive the Beta and Release Candidate pre-releases are already accustomed with. Of course, many of the core components and default applications have been updated to their latest versions.
Leftovers: Security
TheSSS 19.0 Linux Server Out with Kernel 4.4.14, Apache 2.4.23 & MariaDB 10.1.16
TheSSS (The Smallest Server Suite) is one of the lightest Linux kernel-based operating systems designed to be used as an all-around server for home users, as well as small- and medium-sized businesses looking for a quick and painless way of distributing files across networks or to simply test some web-based software.
GNOME Control Center 3.22 to Update the Keyboard Settings, Improve Networking
The upcoming GNOME 3.22 desktop environment is still in the works, and a first Beta build was seeded to public beta testers last week, bringing multiple enhancements and new features to most of its core components and apps. While GNOME 3.22 Beta was announced on August 22, it appears that the maintainers of certain core packages needed a little more time to work on various improvements and polish their applications before they were suitable for public testing. And this is the case of GNOME Control Center, which was recently updated to version 3.21.90, which means 3.22 Beta.

DNV has developed a class notation for seismic vessels in consultation with key industry players, WesternGeco, PGS and Fugro-Geoteam.
The need to have enhanced redundancy and proper deck arrangements to ensure continuous operation without loss of speed is the backbone of these new technical requirements.
Seismic vessels contain high end computerized technology to find resources below the seabed, and represent a key element in the value chain leading to future offshore field developments. Any interruptions in the ships forward movement can complicate the seismic data processing, and continuous operations with focus to avoid any downtime of key functions are hence of utmost importance.
With expensive seismic streamer equipment mobilized at sea, sudden loss of service speed may lead to severe consequences as damage to cables impairing the whole seismic vessel operation.
The new notation focuses on increased availability of the vessels during critical phases of the seismic operations. As well as vessel operators, DNV has consulted seismic handling and high pressure equipment suppliers to ensure that all current and future industry challenges are comprehensively dealt with.
The maintenance of propulsive power is a key issue. The class notation has therefore taken the DNV concept for redundant propulsion one step further so that any failure on board will not lead to loss of more than 50 per cent forward trust. This is sufficient to maintain a minimum speed of a few knots and will protect any high cost air guns and streamers deployed.
Seismic vessels typically operate for many months continuously without seeking harbour. The class notation requires a deck arrangement that facilitates side by side transfer for crew and resupply from a seismic support vessel.
Beyond this, the class notation also sets a requirement for the bridge arrangement to ensure good view to the streamers and any workboats that are close by during normal operation. High pressure systems are also addressed in the class notation to ensure that deck operations can be carried out safely by the crew.

Toshiba Qosmio F30
- Powerful, All around strong performance, Great sound, Great Screen, High definition Digital Tuner
- Limited battery life, Lid construction could be better
Bottom Line
If you need a media and gaming notebook with a lot of power, and battery life isn't your primary concern, the Qosmio F30 is a great choice.
Price$ 3,699.00 (AUD)
Special Offers
With a powerful Nvidia 7600 GO graphics card, a 2GHz processor and Harmon Kardon speakers, Toshiba's Qosmio F30 is a powerful all round performer. Suitable for mobile gaming, media centre duties or general desktop tasks the F30 is an affordable, multi-purpose device that can fulfil a variety of needs. Its only real flaw is limited battery life.
Running a 2GHz T2500 Intel Core Duo processor and 1GB of RAM (upgradeable to 2GB) the F30 certainly has plenty of power, as was highlighted by its score of 99 in World Bench 5. This result is consistent with other machines with similar specifications, and indicates that this unit is suited to everything from day-to-day office tasks to media editing and encoding, although if you truly wish to pursue the latter we'd suggest you upgrade your system memory to 2GB.
The 128MB 7600 GO graphics card ensures this machine also excels at gaming, and its scores of 19968 and 2151 in 3DMark01 and 3DMark06 respectively corroborate this. The F30 is fast enough to handle most modern games with ease, and while there was some minor stuttering in our F.E.A.R testing, for the most part it was quite playable and this was a strong performance while running such a demanding game.
The Harmon Kardon speakers also helped cement this machine's gaming potential. While many people will use headphones when playing audio through a notebook, it is nice to know the option for good quality speaker sound is there should you need it. The system provides amazing volume for such a compact setup, with powerful bass and a vibrant mid range. It certainly isn't audiophile quality sound, but it is comparable to low and mid-range stand-alone speaker systems and is some of the best audio we've heard from a notebook.
These speakers also highlight one of the F30's other strengths; its media playback capabilities. Combined with a 15.4in1280x800 widescreen display, DVI and D-Sub outputs and a 100GB hard drive, this makes for a great media centre workstation. It also ships with Windows Media Centre Edition as standard, giving you all the flexibility of a desktop media PC in a portable package. Toshiba include a high definition digital television tuner pre-installed to give the highest possible quality television feeds.
The screen is excellent, with good horizontal viewing angle, no backlight bleeding and minimal ghosting. We found it to be crisp and colourful, with no visible aberrations or contrast issues. Meanwhile the 100GB hard disk provides enough capacity to store a large quantity of media. Should you need more, the machine can be upgraded with a second 100GB drive for 200GB total. Toshiba has also included many the standard media keys along the top, including play/pause, stop, record and track skip as well as a handy and quite stylish volume knob on the right hand side.
Another cool media feature is the included DVD writer, which can write all the major formats including the rather rare DVD-RAM. Supporting all of this are the standard connectivity options, including four USB 2.0 ports, FireWire, Bluetooth, 100MB Ethernet and 802.11 a/b/g wireless.
The one area that was a bit of a disappointment in our media testing was with regards to battery life. The F30 managed to last just 79 minutes in our MobileMark DVD run down test, indicating it won't have enough power to play a standard DVD in its entirety when running on batteries alone. This is a disappointment, as a unit such as this is perfectly suited to watching movies on public transport or other on the move situations.
Toshiba has stuck with their standard Qosmio design on the F30 and it looks quite good but not spectacular. A dull silver exterior opens to reveal a matte black bezel and keyboard, which is quite easy to type on thanks to the shallow key mounting and extra space below where your wrists can rest. Thanks to the large15.4in screen it is quite a bulky notebook, measuring 37.9cm x 29cm x 4.6cm and weighing 4kg. We found the plastic interior to be reasonably solid, but the lid and outer area flexed very easily under pressure, and didn't leave us filled with confidence.
The F30 comes pre-packaged with a variety of software, including Microsoft Office Onenote, WinDVD Creator 2, WinDVD and Norton Internet Security. It is also Vista ready, and as it has 1GB of RAM as standard you should have no trouble updating when the time comes.
Overall this is an excellent media workstation. The low battery life is disappointing, but if you want a portable machine that can act as a media centre at home and an office or gaming PC on the road, the Qosmio F30 is a good choice.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

The United States Merchant Marine Academy (USMMA) at Kings Point informs it recently hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the completion of Mallory Pier. The pier was completely reconstructed as part of USMMA's overall $71 million dollar Capital Improvement Plan.
Faculty, staff and guests were welcomed by the Regimental Band's Fanfare Trumpets, who were then followed by a greeting from Rear Admiral James A. Helis, Superintendent. Helis thanked those who played a role in the pier's completion, including the Capital Improvement Team, engineers, administrators, the Waterfront staff and the contractor, Russell Marine.
"The new Mallory Pier is a major accomplishment and a concrete (pun intended) symbol of our ongoing efforts to renovate and modernize the Academy's facilities," said Helis. Admiral Helis then quoted Mr. Wayne Leong, Maritime Administration (MARAD) Director of Procurement, who wrote about the Mallory Pier project, "We were fortunate to have had a great team, quality contractor, good specs and strong leadership support. It doesn't happen often that all the stars align perfectly, and it's gratifying that it happened on this important project," said Helis.
Helis introduced the Acting Maritime Administrator, Paul N. Jaenichen, who thanked the U.S. Department of Transportation staff; Dave Murk, Lana Hurdle, John Reardon, Bruce Markman and Keith Washington, for the work they did over the past five years. He congratulated them not only on a job well-done, but for a job that was done "on-time and under budget." Mr. Jaenichen then introduced the Guest of Honor, Deputy Secretary of Transportation Victor Mendez.
Mr. Mendez greeted the audience and thanked them for working as a team to make the Mallory Pier project a success. He passed along congratulations from Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx.
He also spoke directly to the midshipmen, making special mention of the First Classmen who will be taking their U.S. Coast License Exams this week. He wished them luck and said that he was confident that he would see them all again on graduation day. Then Deputy Secretary Mendez, Rear Admiral Helis and Midshipmen Erin Hofstetter, 1/c cut a ceremonial red white and blue ribbon.
After the ribbon cutting ceremony, Mr. Mendez and Mr. Jaenichen briefly toured the pier with Rear Admiral Helis before joining the Regiment of Midshipmen for lunch in Delano Dining Hall.

Great place to stay!Posted Aug 22, 2016
Pros: great hot breakfast, both a lake and pool to swim in, clean rooms, laundry facilities.
Cons: Nothing I can think of.
Location: Just outside Halifax, 10 minute drive.
The location is just outside Halifax. Not within walking distance unless you like a long hike. Chocolate lake is right behind the hotel and it is a clean lake which can be swam in! The free breakfast was really great! The had eggs, sausage, french toast, english muffins, cereals, coffee, juice, etc. The rooms were very clean. The restaurant was also very good. We ate dinner there one night and the food was fantastic and prices fair.

Beautiful viewPosted Aug 21, 2016
Pros: Beautiful view and comfortable beds
Cons: Update and renovate
Location: As long as you have a car it was between downtown, suburbs with stores and restaurants, and Peggy's Cove
We had 2 queens with a lake view. The room was a good size and the view was beautiful. A sign said that there was bacteria in the lake but it was full of swimmers so probably not a big deal. The pool was not heated and freezing cold and the hot tub was too hot (never experienced that before). The breakfast was ok and offered limited gluten free items if asked. Sitting on the deck looking at the lake for breakfast was a great option. Overall the room and hotel needs updating. The beds were great but there were no outlets for charging phones/iPads etc. ....for this level of hotel I would expect a charging dock, not to have to go around and unplug lamps to find an outlet. Also the bathroom fan did not work. We had to open the bathroom door to let the steam out and then the smoke detector went off.

Hospital atmosphere, brutal breakfastPosted Aug 17, 2016
This is a run down tired hotel. Booked this hotel 3-4 weeks in advance for the pool and breakfast and view. Pool was down for maintenance previous 2 weeks. No one said anything. Breakfast was almost inedible and I eat almost anything. I had a bowl of cereal. Room was the size of a Queen bed essentially. Bathroom was tiny too. View was of the back alley way. To be fair the bed was very comfortable and the linens were excellent. And rooms in main hotel are probably better. Location is far from downtown in the middle of nowhere so for almost $200 per night, I think you could do better.

Women's basketball defeats USF 79-59
A week ago, Shoni Schimmel set the record for made three point field goals in a game. As fifth ranked Louisville took on USF, Tia Gibbs did her best for an encore.
Gibbs hit four 3 pointers in a five minute span early in the second half as Louisville defeated USF 79-59.
Gibbs finished with 19 points and shot 5 of 7 from three after missing her first three field goal attempts.
"As a shooter you hate it when you miss your first two- the first one is ok, but definitely the first two," Gibbs said. "That was my thing, just keep shooting, and my teammates kept telling me to keep shooting and that they'd start falling.
As a team, the Cardinals started off slow, shooting just 1 of 12 from the field through the first five and a half minutes, but held USF to seven points during the slow start.
"We got good shots. That's part of the thing that I'm not concerned about. I thought we had very good shots they just weren't going in, but we continued to defend," U of L head coach Jeff Walz said. "I keep telling our kids, that if we keep guarding somebody we're going to be okay, because eventually we start to make some shots."
Louisville finished the final four minutes of the first half on a 13-0 run, which extended their lead to 45-28 at halftime.
"We got beat in transition on two of them. I was like, `we just got to make sure we stop getting beat in transition.' And once we did that – I think we actually started with a three in the second half, it was a 16-0 run, that kind of put things away," Walz said.
Sara Hammond scored 12 points and pulled down eight rebounds. Asia Taylor added eight points and ten rebounds.
Shoni Schimmel finished with 14 points, her 21st consecutive game scoring in double digits.
With Bria Smith limited to just 18 minutes due to foul trouble, Jude Schimmel efficiently ran the offense with six assists and no turnovers.
"The biggest thing for me is that I've accepted my role as a point guard," Jude Schimmel said. "My goal is really to just be the leader on the floor. I accept that and I embrace it to the fullest potential."
The 22-1 Cardinals travel to UCF on Tuesday looking to extend their 15-game winning streak.
