Hi, Everyone, I. Executive Board F. All Board members have voting privileges except for the President who has no vote except to break a tie. Proposed change: All Board members have voting privileges. The proposed change did not pass. VI. Handling of Funds B. Financial Records and Procedures An amendment was proposed by a club member and approved by the members to add the following statement: 5. The person who receives the check cannot be the signer of the check. The revisions were incorporated into the proposed Rules and Regulations for presentation to the RCSC COC (Club Organization Committee) for review. The recently installed Cox high-speed internet was put to test by having all computers in the Members Lab (Room A), in Classroom C (Windows 7 Lab), and in the office accessing the internet at the same time. All were able to connect successfully—no crashes; no degradation of service. Thanks for making our
club—your club, the best there is.

Genealogy SIG
Discover Your 
Family Tree
The Genealogy SIG, led by Tom Mulgrew, meets at
9:00 a.m. on the second
Wednesday of each month.
Anyone interested in doing their family history can join the Genealogy SIG to
discover how family history records can be easily kept
using various software programs.
I have used a few of these software
programs in the past, and presently I am using Family Tree Maker for keeping up
to date with my family history.
Genealogy as a hobby is enjoyed by many here in
Sun City.
If you wish to get started searching your roots or if you already have
a family history and would like to join us please check out our SIG.

TIP:
If you would like to Increase the Text Size you
are viewing on a web page, Simply, Hold Down the
CTRL* Key on your Keyboard,
while
Scrolling Backwards with
your Wheel Button on your mouse. This will
increase the text size to the largest size.

This should work
in any of your Web Browsers such as Internet Explorer.

the Spacebar in a web browser will
Scroll Down One Page at a Time.
Try reversing this!
Hold down the Shift Key
while Tapping the
Spacebar will Scroll Back Up the Page.
This
is a great shortcut on a long web page.
Refreshing a Web Page
When you view a Web page, it is stored in a cache
on your computer. The next time you access that page,
it is loaded onto your
screen from the cache.
Therefore, you may not be seeing the latest version of
the page.
TIP:
Click on Refresh
or Reload
button at the top of your browser screen, or
press the F5 function key at the top
of your keyboard to refresh
the page and
see its latest version.
Control + F5
refreshes the current web page regardless of any time stamps.
Find box
TIP: There are a couple of
different ways to open the Find box to find
something on a web page. Control + F or
F3 both work the same way.
Search Bar
TIP:
Control + E will bring your
cursor to the Search Bar; if an old search is typed in,
it will highlight
it so you can type in the new search without leaving your keyboard.
History
TIP:
Control + H will show your
History.
Stop a new web page from loading.
TIP:
If you click the ESC key it will
stop a new web page from loading.
This comes in
handy if you see it has content you don't want, if it is in a different
language,
it is loading slowly, or you just change your mind.
Full Screen
TIP:
F11 toggles to and from "Full Screen" mode.
