Let's Create Table of Contents in Word 2013

A table of contents is very much similar to a list of chapter which is often present at the start of a book. Along with the list, the number from which the chapter begins is also enlisted. This is what the table of contents is very much alike.
Let’s see how you can create this table using Microsoft Word 2013 and we are assuming you have your document prepared with content includes headings, paragraphs and other stuff.
The first thing you will need to do is to use the heading styles in your document. A heading style informs Word that a new part of your document is beginning. When you insert the table of contents a section will be created against each heading.

Step 1: Choose Headline (H1,H2..)

To apply the headings style, you can select from different options present on the right hand side of the main home tab. There are different levels for sub-headings etc.
To apply styles, highlight or click inside of your heading-1 which will be top level heading and then choose a style from preset styles and repeat this step to apply styles to heading-2, heading 3… as you can see below in screenshot style applied to H1 and H2.

Once you click on any of the options, a table will be inserted at the top page of the document which will formed on the basis of your headings in the document.
If you change any of the headings, or insert new ones you can update the table too. All you need to do is to click on the table and choose the Update Table… option.
If you only update the page numbers in TOC then you can choose “Update page number only” option or you can Update the entire table as well.

FuboTV may be your best option for watching the World Cup finals

FuboTV is streaming the World Cup Finals in 4K resolution on pretty much every platform. And it has a free seven-day trial . It's available on Chromecast, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV and Roku — with a free trial. Admittedly, streaming video can still be a bit of a crapshoot. Do you have the right hardware? Do you have the right service? Do you have a good enough internet connection? Will your home network hiccup? And just how good is the source video in the first place? Is it compressed to within an inch of its life? Is 4K resolution eschewed for something lesser? Streaming the World Cup in 4K resolution has been excellent, even when your team loses. It is — or at least it can be — a mess. But we've had a beacon of hope during the latter stages of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. (The men's edition, anyway; the women play in two more years.) FuboTV — one of the lesser-known but extremely sports-friendly streaming services —  is showing all of the remaining games in 4K...

In its Q2 2018 earnings guidance , Samsung is forecasting an operating profit of $13.2 billion (14.8 trillion won), up 5% from the same period a year ago. Overall revenue at $51.7 billion (58 trillion won) is less than the $54.8 billion the company raked in last year. To put things into context, Samsung made a profit of $14.6 billion on revenues of $56.5 billion last quarter . As noted by The Wall Street Journal , Samsung's profits over the course of the last year were bouyed by strong perfromance by the manufacturer's semiconductor division, which overtook Intel last year. Samsung may not be able to maintain its edge in this category, however, as NAND and DRAM module prices are expected to fall by up to 15%. Slow sales of the Galaxy S9 series is attributed as a r...
