MISSION
For
More Information and to Order My Book, Conquer Email Overload, If you’re ever working on a PowerPoint presentation and notice that the file seems to get bigger for no reason (click File, Properties, General tab to see how large your file is), you can reduce the file size by up to 50 percent by resaving it under a different name. If it doesn't work the first time you do it, try it again.
If you’ve embedded a lot of pictures, you can compress one picture or all of them. If you choose to compress all pictures, wait until you have inserted all of them so PowerPoint won’t attempt to re‑compress them.
If your file size doesn’t seem to be shrinking when you do the compress, turn off Fast Saves.
Among, amongst – “Among” means surrounded by others (e.g., among
friends) or in a group (e.g., among many things to do). Some dictionaries
show “amongst” as an alternative to “among”; others don’t even include it.
“Among” is recommended because it’s simpler and more up to date than
“amongst.”

TECH-Tip Call me. It's free. If you haven't tried calling and talking with someone using your computer and the Internet, it's easy, so try it now. Some time ago, I downloaded some free software called Skype. It works. Then I asked people I usually call long distance to download the software too. Once my friends downloaded the software, their computer started ringing. When they clicked the Answer button, I was on the other end, clear as a bell. I have unlimited long distance on my land line, and don't use Skype that much except to "play" with being able to talk to someone from my computer. But I plan to seriously use it as I start to travel more abroad. It works the same way. Here is what you'll need:
One more thing, if you're still on dial-up, it's possible to surf the
Web while you're talking with Skype. To download Skype (rhymes with type), visit
www.skype.com.

MY-Tip
Don't just think things up− think them through I watched as I understood a contraption she'd built that would lock him in the house. She'd stored a set of keys to her unlocked car in the car's ashtray; she had an extra set of comfortable clothes and cash money stashed in another car at a deserted house (she had the keys), and she got away. It was something to watch!
Jennifer hadn't just thought up
the idea of leaving that fool; she'd thought through the whole scenario.
She had a plan for everything. That's what local government, state government, and the federal government should have done before the tragedy in New Orleans. That whole incident boiled down to a huge, disorganized mess. But I won't get started on that because that would take a lot more pages than I have in COPE. The point is, in all of your dealings, think people!
Write everything down, play it out in your head, walk through it, just
like Jennifer did. It was a masterful thing to watch.
