10 useful iPhone tips & tricks The iPhone, like the Mac, is extremely simple and intuitive to use. Odds are that you’ve never even cracked open the user manual since the way just about everything works is pretty obvious. But its simplicity can be a double-edged sword… there are many small “convenience features” that are often hidden away. I’m sure that many of you are “power users” and probably know most of these tips and tricks. 1. Tapping the status bar (the bar at the top with the clock) will make scrollable content scroll to the top. This may be the most convenient, yet hidden feature on the iPhone. As far as I know, there’s no corresponding way to scroll to the bottom, though. 2. Simultaneously press the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons to take a screenshot of your current screen. 3. Touching an image in Safari or Mail for a couple of seconds will present you with an action sheet which will enable you to save the image. 4. Double-tap the Shift key to lock it. 5. 6.

The Living Bible A VIEW OF THE VERSIONSExamining the Positive & Negative Qualities Of Various Versions & Translations Of God's Holy Scriptures THE LIVING BIBLEA Critical Analysis by Al Maxey In the summer of 1957, a 39 year old man by the name of Kenneth Taylor claimed that "God planted in my mind the concept" of taking the Bible and rephrasing it in an innovative "thought-for-thought" form, rather than a word-for-word translation from the original Hebrew and Greek. In the upstairs study of his old farmhouse in Wheaton, Illinois he began trying out his theory on a few passages of Scripture.

What is a Ships' Engineer? The propulsion plant of a vessel and management of the engineering department is the responsibility of the engineer officers. Ship engineers operate, maintain, and repair propulsion engines, boilers, generators, pumps, and other machinery. Merchant marine vessels usually have four engineering officers: chief engineer, a 1st assistant engineer, 2nd assistant engineer, and 3rd assistant engineer. Assistant engineers stand periodic watches, overseeing the safe operation of engines and machinery. All engineers "stand" watch for specified periods, usually a 4 hours on/ 8 hours off rotation. Engineers work primarily on commercial ships (merchant marine) or Military Sealift ships, in water transportation services (such as working on tugs, charter boats and other watercraft) and on vessels which carry passengers (such as cruise ships, casino boats, sightseeing boats, and ferries) Rotation schedules vary from 2 weeks up to 120 days, depending on vessel type.
