If you hold down the alt key and type in the ASCII code for the characters you need on the numb pad you can get any character you want. If you don't know the ASCII code for a character you want just google it. I do it all the time. You will have to keep a record of the numbers unless you have a great memory.

The Ins + 4 list is very handy but it does not have everything I need for Portuguese, like the circonflex and the tilde (or the uncle as they say here). The Dodgers have turned murder's row from a batting context to a pitching context. They did lose some 40-50 games during the regular season but it's hard to grasp when they'll lose their next playoff game. It looks like L.A. and either New York or Houston. The Yankees seem to have a reserve tank, winning when they must .
