Keyboard shortcut of the week: Sub- and Superscript

Occasionally we have to make use of subscripts or superscripts in our documents. The most common use of these is with dates, as in 20th. There the 'th' is a superscript; that is, smaller text that is raised. Subscripts are most often used in technical language such as if we refer to water as H2O. There the subscript is the '2'; smaller text that is lowered.

To switch to subscript mode or to change the selected text to a subscript, hold down the Control key and press the = key. This same combination will also set selected subscript text back to normal and switch out of subscript mode, as with the keyboard shortcuts for bold or italic mode.

To switch to superscript mode or to change the selected text to a superscript, hold down the Control key and the Shift key, and then press the + key. As with subscripts the same combination switches back to normal text to if presses again.

This tip applies to Microsoft Word and PowerPoint, but unfortunately not to Excel.

LCD-Fernseher sind in der Regel heller als Plasma-TVs, und viele können als Computermonitor oder Media-Center-Anzeige verdoppeln. LCD-Fernseher kommen jetzt aus größeren und zu Preisen, die wirklich mit denen ähnlicher Größe Plasma-TVs zu konkurrieren beginnen. LCD-Fernseher sind in der Regel eine etwas langsamere Reaktionszeit als die Plasma-Pendants zu haben. LCD-Fernseher verbrauchen weniger Energie, deren Plasma Kollegen und neigen dazu, eine längere Lebensdauer der Lampe zu haben (obwohl die jüngsten Fortschritte in der Plasmatechnologie haben die Lebensdauer der Lampe Problem fast ein strittiger Punkt gemacht).

Anywhere you see negative comments about Forex trading, they will obviously be from people who don't make money Forex trading. Obviously if you want advice about Forex trading, get it from people who are successful Forex traders.
Ref your question, when choosing a broker the key if the protection of your capital. Check that your money is safe, if should be in a protected account separate from the brokers money or any other customers. Research to see if there is any negative feedback on the broker.
As with almost everything, the key to successful Forex trading is education, experience and discipline. Read this for my recommendations to anyone starting out. Visit forex signals
