During May, servers at Bennigan's Grill and Tavern are asking customers to add a charitable donation to their checks.
Contributors to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society will receive Pot O'Gold pins.
The restaurant chain hopes to raise a half-million dollars in support of the MS Society's client programs and international research areas.
MS is a chronic and unpredictable disease of the central nervous system that usually strikes during the "prime of life" years, ages 20 to 50.
Approximately 400,000 Americans acknowledge having MS, according to information from the Panhandle Division of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
For more information about MS and the work of the Panhandle Division, call (800) FIGHT MS, or visit www.nationalmssociety.org/txp.

A Pueblo West Middle School student is being suspended from school after he allegedly brought a gun to the building this week.
Assistant Superintendent Ed Smith says another student told a bus driver that the suspect had a gun in his backpack Wednesday afternoon.
The driver notified the principal and the bus was evacuated.
Officials say a pellet gun was found in the student's bag, but it's NOT clear if it was loaded.
The name, age and grade of that student are NOT being released.
The school district's policy mandates that students caught with a weapon -- or a fake -- may face expulsion.

Leon High School seniors aren't playing hooky their last day.. instead they're camping out over night!
Principal Rocky Hanna invited the class of 2011 to pitch a tent in the front of the high school, watch movies, sign year books and enjoy each others company.
Raleigh DeVore a Leon High Senior say, "My sister was actually alumni i think 07 and I remember her coming out here to do this and I just thought it was the craziest idea and it'd be so much fun. It's pretty much the last hooray. It's going to be all out friend's out here one last night."
The tradition came about 6 years ago.

(G Fiume/Getty Image)By Allan MuirAn annotated guide to this morning's must-read hockey stories:• The general manager of the KHL's Dynamo Moscow said Friday that he'd talk to Alex Ovechkin about returning to Russia. RMNB has the key quotes translated into English and looks at how the NHL might respond if OV, or any other contracted player, tries to head home early.• Legal experts believe the chances of NHL players suing the league over concussion issues dimmed as a result of a settlement this week between the NFL and more than 4,500 former players. But just because the legal path became more challenging doesn't mean it ends here.• Adrian Dater isn't buying the Paul Stastny for Ryan Miller trade rumors. Me neither. If (and when) Stastny moves, I think the return has to address Colorado's defense, not their netminding. And on a side note, how cool would it be to have Patrick Roy name you as his favorite goalie?• Philly forward Matt Read has ignored the trade rumors that involved him this summer. That's a solid approach. Just ask Bobby Ryan.• Pavel Datsyuk, Brent Burns and, yep, Roberto Luongo are honored for posting hockey's top tweets for August.• Paul MacLean says it's time for everyone to accept that Daniel Alfredsson is gone and move on.• Maybe now that we've seen Alfie in a Detroit jersey, it'll be a little easier.• Uber-prospect Connor McDavid talks Team Canada, the upcoming OHL season, and the thrill of seeing Steve Downie in this video interview with The Hockey News.• This is a great story about the 40th anniversary of Borje Salming joining the Maple Leafs and how that impacted both the city and the future of hockey scouting. But if that's not reason enough to click the link, you get the added bonus of maybe helping me identify what the other Leaf in the photo is wearing on his head.• A Kings official says tickets for the Stadium Series game planned for Dodger Stadium are selling faster than any previous Winter Classic and that some intriguing and innovative ideas to represent SoCal culture are being planned. As long as these guys aren't involved, we're good.• Peter Chiarelli's tenure in Boston has so successful that fans are willing to overlook the few times he's pinwheeled after stepping on the banana peel. Here's DJ Bean with a take on the best, and worst, decisions of the Chiarelli era. (Warning: contains Brandon Bochenski.)• Joe Haggerty writes that Chiarelli is the best GM in Boston sports right now. That's really saying something.• Scott Clemmensen will be the only native of the Hawkeye State in the NHL next season. The Iowa Wild hope to impact that number down the road.• Cam Charron argues that too many teams already employ a Ron Hainsey-type to want to spend money on another one. He's probably right. As useful as he might be, Hainsey is probably looking at a one-year, $2 million offer, at best, at this point.• I'm not sure who came up with the fancy stat behind this story, but it's one I can get behind.• The latest on Dustin Byfuglien's weight? Kinda surprising, right?• Trips to nearby Lake Placid set the stage at a young age for U.S. Olympic hopeful Zach Bogosian.• Apparently, Bogo had a chat at the Team USA camp with Kyle Okposo, whose head shot on Apr. 20 left the Winnipeg defender with a concussion. And then, giggles over lattes!• Does Team Canada have room for a guy like Karl Alzner? If they're looking for a steady, stay-at-home guy, sure. But he'll have to beat out Marc Methot for the part.• Here's one more reason Jean Beliveau was, and is, so highly revered. Dave Stubbs tweeted later that Beliveau kept up the practice of replying to every single fan for more than 50 years.• It'll be a lot tougher to push the Carolina Hurricanes around if hard-nosed winger Tuomo Ruutu is as healthy as he claims. • Wow. Whoever came up with this idea for hockey cards is a freaking genius. Comments

Absentee Voting Procedures
January 19, 2011
U.S. Embassy Kigali, Rwanda
Have you Registered and Requested Your Absentee Ballot?
Overseas residents who wish to vote absentee must declare their intentions to their appropriate voting officials each calendar year. The Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) and the Military and Overseas Voter Empowerment Act (MOVE) grant U.S. citizens overseas the right to vote in federal elections in the United States. Federal elections include primaries as well as general and special elections for the President, Vice President, U.S. Senators, and U.S. Representatives to Congress. The UOCAVA applies only to federal elections. However, many states have enacted legislation whereby certain categories of citizens residing overseas can vote by absentee ballot for state or local officials. The same procedures for obtaining ballots are used for both local and federal elections.
The process is straightforward. You need to submit a Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) to the voting officials in the appropriate state in the United States. Once they have received it and confirmed your registration, they will send you an absentee ballot which you will then fill out and return according to the instructions provided along with the ballot itself. The Embassy itself does not supply ballots nor can you vote here.
The appropriate state is the state of your "voting residence." A voting residence is the legal residence or domicile in which you could vote if you were present in that state. The rules for determining that state depend on your status overseas.
- Military and Merchant Marine members, and their spouses and dependents, may register to vote in the domicile (state) that the member claims as his or her residence.
- Civilian U.S. Government employees overseas, and their spouses and dependents, generally register in the state they claim as their legal residence.
- Overseas citizens (not affiliated with the U.S. Government) must vote in their last state of residence immediately prior to departure from the United States. This rule applies even if the voter no longer maintains any abode in that state nor has any intention of returning to it.
- American citizens who have never resided in the United States should apply to the state where their American citizen parent(s) last resided, although they should be aware that not all states will grant such a request. Please refer to the state instructions.
Step One: Obtaining the FPCA: You may obtain a FPCA in a number of different ways. The easiest way to complete the card is to go to the Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP) website, where an on-line assistant walks you through the process of completing and addressing the form.
PLEASE NOTE that American Samoa, Guam, and Ohio do not accept the online version of the FPCA.
Step Two: Completing the FPCA: The form comes with its own set of general instructions. These are also in the most recent Voting Assistance Guide, which you can find online at http://www.fvap.gov/. The Voting Assistance Guide contains up-to-date requirements for voting in each state, including the dates of the elections and the deadlines for applying for your ballot. A good rule of thumb is to apply at least 45 days before the election to ensure that you get your materials in time to send them back before election day. Keep in mind that under MOVE, states are now prohibited from rejecting marked ballots based on notarization, paper size or paper weight requirements. However, witnessing requirements of individual states remain in place.
Electronic Registration under the Military and Overseas Voter Empowerment (MOVE) Act. States are now required to send out blank absentee ballots electronically, either by email, fax or downloadable link via their state's website.
If you are not currently registered to vote then you need to send in a Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) form and indicate in Item 4c how you want your ballot delivered (mail/fax/email). If you are already registered, and have already sent in FPCAs in past years, you need to send in a new FPCA form this year on which you include your email address (or the email address of a nearby family member or friend), and indicate how you want your blank ballot delivered (mail/fax/email).
If the voter indicates "by email" and the voter's state only allows faxes, local election officials may default to a delivery by mail procedure. States that opt to post an absentee ballot on the state website may use the email address provided to send access instructions.
You must explain in Item 6 on the FPCA the options you prefer:
- Option 1 - by email (entered in Item 2j)
- Option 2 - by fax (or mail, if you don't have fax access)
If you don't provide this information on your FPCA, you will be put on the list to receive your ballots by mail. Under the MOVE act ballots are mailed out 45 days before election day.
Step Three: Mailing the FPCA: After you have completed the FPCA, address it to the appropriate city or county office in the United States. The state instructions contain a list of addresses. If you drop the card off at the Embassy, we can send it for you at no cost. If you are running up against a deadline, check the extract from the Voting Assistance Guide for your state to see if it allows you to fax your request. Keep in mind that you still have to send the FPCA by post; the fax enables you to beat a deadline but it cannot substitute for the signed original.
You should make every effort to send in your completed FPCA so that it reaches your local election officials at least forty-five days before Election Day. In most cases, this will provide time for election officials to process your request and send you a blank ballot
Step Four: Voting: If all goes well, your local state officials will register you and send you a ballot which you will fill out and return according to the instructions you are given. In some cases, local officials may need to contact you in order to confirm your prior residency in the state and your citizenship before they will send you a ballot. It is important to provide accurate contact information on the FPCA and to explain any unusual circumstances in the space provided.
If you have not received your ballot and your FPCA was mailed in time to be received by your local election official 45 days prior to the election, you may be eligible to use the Federal Write-in Absentee Ballot (FWAB) to vote for federal offices (President/Vice President, Senator, and Representative). The FWAB may be used only for general elections and is an emergency backup for voters who expect to be able to use the regular absentee ballot from their state or territory but who did not receive that ballot in time to vote and return it. The FWAB must be received by the local election official no later than the deadline for receipt of regular absentee ballots under state law. The FWAB is to be used to assist those voters who would be disenfranchised through no fault of their own, and is not designed as a replacement for the regular state ballot. You may obtain a FWAB from the Embassy. There is also an online version available at www.fvap.gov . If you receive your ballot after you have submitted the FWAB, you still must submit the ballot. The ballot, and not the FWAB, will be counted.
You can stay in touch and get Embassy updates by checking the U.S. Embassy Kigali website. You can also get global updates at the U.S. Department of State's, Bureau of Consular Affairs website where you can find the current Worldwide Caution, Travel Warnings, Travel Alerts, and Country Specific Information.

These numbers are available from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday (except federal holidays).

Roy Lichtenstein (1923 – 1997), was a Pop artist whose work was torn from the pages of torrid pulp fiction novels and classic comic books. Lichtenstein was initially a university instructor where he was influenced by artists who based their styles on everyday life. First painting semi-abstractions of the Old West, he later depicted 20th century Americana such as Mickey Mouse and bubble gum wrappers. In 1961, he began exclusively painting comic strip scenes printed with a process that simulated photoengraver's dots. Lichtenstein's other works exposed the contradictions of representing three dimensions on a flat surface.

American Bar Association endorses marriage equality
Timothy Kincaid
August 10th, 2010
Today the American Bar Association, the nation's leading legal organization, voted at their annual meeting to endorse marriage equality. (SF Sentinel)
RESOLVED, That the American Bar Association urges state, territorial, and tribal governments to eliminate all of their legal barriers to civil marriage between two persons of the same sex who are otherwise eligible to marry.
Predictably, the Alliance Defense Fund chimed in with a declaration that the voice of the legal profession doesn't speak for them. (Christian Post)
"The fact that ADF and other lawyers disagree with ABA on a number of controversial issues demonstrates the gross inaccuracy of ABA's claim that it speaks for the U.S. legal profession," remarked ADF Senior Legal Counsel Doug Napier, who resigned from the ABA because of its stance on controversial political issues.

Just days before the prestigious Full Frame Documentary Film Festival is set to open in North Carolina, Chicago launched its own nonfiction showcase on Friday night. And judging from the lineup, the jury and the turnout (minus the technical glitches), the Chicago International Documentary Festival (CIDF) could steal some of Full Frame's thunder. Only in its third year, CIDF organizers have put together an impressive collection of films culled from Sundance, IDFA and beyond, including world premieres of Pamela Yates' "State of Fear," Oscar-nominee Tod Lending's latest "Omar and Pete" and Lauri Feldman's "The Innocent."
I, for one, was also surprised to find Paul Pavlikovsky (director of brilliant movies "Last Resort" and "My Summer of Love") hanging out at a pre-show reception with Canadian critic Mark Peranson. With his documentary background, Pavlikovsky is a natural to serve on the festival's jury, but with his newfound success as a fiction filmmaker, I didn't expect it. Turns out he goes way back with fest director Christopher Kamyszew, a fellow Pole and director of Chicago's Polish Film Festival, and remains deeply appreciative of Kamyszew's passion and good taste for film.
Because of the Polish ties, it should be noted that there's an Eastern European flavor to the doc fest proceedings. Oddly enough, aside from the actual opening night movie, "The Real Dirt on Farmer John" (more on that in a second), it sounded as if there were as many foreign accents at Chicago's festival than there are at IDFA.
Slamdance '05 selection "Farmer John" was a true crowdpleaser in the mold of "Go Further." A portrait of an eccentric Illinois farmer struggling to keep his farm alive, the movie is sweet, sad, funny, and well, inspiring, especially, if you're into the idealistic notion of communal, organic farming. It won over the audience, even after sound problems interrupted the show.
And will someone please give Albert Maysles the money to finish his movie about trains? The famous documentarian was on hand in Chicago, picking up a Lifetime Achievement Award on behalf of he and his brother's work. During the opening night session, he hawked his "In Transit" project and told his now familiar story about meeting a woman on her way to meet her mother for the first time. I think I heard this story at The Moth years ago, and then again, at the IFP Market last fall. Maybe he doesn't need money; he just needs time. But even at a still vigorous and impassioned 71-years-old -- he said on Friday night he was at a mid-career point -- the guy's only got so many working years left. Having seen some of the fantastic '70s-set footage, I hope he finishes it soon.

Video game technology helps visitors learn about gravity, the sun and artificial intelligence in an interactive, memorable way
A girl stands in front of an image of the sun. The rays of its surface bounce off her porcelain face, giving her cheeks an orange glow as she stares, astounded at the mass that hovers over her. Intrigued and unafraid, she waves her right arm over the immense fireball. And suddenly, both the sun and little girl come alive as her arm turns the sun's surface a fiery purple.
At the Milton J. Rubenstein Museum of Science & Technology's new fall exhibit, "Out There: Exploring Space Through Augmented Reality," visitors can touch the sun, plant the American flag with an Apollo astronaut, and interact with artificial intelligence through a series of three panels which allow them to explore different concepts of space exploration through imagery and motion tracking.
The new exhibit is a local collaboration between Glyphr, an augmented reality company based in Syracuse's Tech Garden; Lorne Covington, a Mottville artist who designed current MOST exhibit "Dancing Light Theater: Math in Motion"; and Kevin Lucas, director of information technology at the MOST.
"The interactivity of this exhibit makes it so exciting," said Larry Leatherman, president of the MOST. "People are able to connect to the ideas because they can see themselves or their actions reflected in the screens or 'touch' the screen to change it."
The first screen, called "Astronaut Encounter," displays an astronaut dressed in gear worn by Apollo astronauts. Created by Glyphr, the screen shows the astronaut jumping in the moon's low gravity and waving at the camera as he plants the American flag. Visitors get to be a part of the experience through a camera that captures them and then displays their image on screen as they "interact" with the astronaut.
This technology is called augmented reality and, unlike virtual reality's entirely computer-generated world, projects images on top of reality. This technology is growing more popular through devices like Google Glass and is predicted to become the standard in mobile video games, where a game plays on top of an image of the real world in front of you.
The "Unseen Sun," the second screen, allows museumgoers to learn the different temperature levels of the sun by waving their hands. Solar researchers use this information to view features outside the visible spectrum. Developed by Covington and Lucas, the interactive sun uses continuously updated data from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory.
Covington and Lucas also collaborated to develop "I Am (Free)W.I.L.L." The exhibit's final screen transforms visitors into puppeteers as they interact with a robot named W.I.L.L. (Willful Intelligent Lazy Lifeform), which has artificial intelligence built in it. The robot mimics the actions of museumgoers facing the screen, but occasionally exhibits his autonomy through such things as tapping his foot or doing a little dance.
Artificial intelligence, or A.I., is already incorporated into most video games as non-player or computer-generated characters. In the case of W.I.L.L., he learns from his interaction with people and expands his repertoire.
Nika Ribnitiski watched as W.I.L.L. mimicked her giving her younger sibling a high-five. The 12-year old said she's amazed by the robot's precision. "It's really high tech," she said.

Browns waiting for decision on Josh Gordon
BEREA, Ohio - "Business as usual." That's the way Browns head coach Mike Pettine says the team has to address Josh Gordon's looming league suspension.
"All my time in the league, there is going to be a handful of guys that just don't get it but I think the league has done more then enough to get the word out and I think the better clubs are the ones that are very proactive instead of reactive and I think that's the situation we have here," Pettine said.
With just five practices remaining before the team breaks for a month, the Browns are doing everything they can to adjust to live without their Pro Bowl receiver. The NFL is under no time frame to make a decision which is why the Browns have taken a proactive approach in acquiring wide receivers like Nate Burleson and Earl Bennett.
Nate Burleson, who the Browns signed as a free agent, has played with great receivers like Randy Moss, who had his own troubles off the field and Calvin Johnson. Burleson feels he can use that wisdom to help Gordon overcome the issues that have plagued him off the field.
"What I want is to get him to understand is that if he can harness what he has and what he's been gifted with, there's gonna be trouble in this league for a long time."
That's the problem that faces the Browns, they know they have a great talent in Gordon, but they also know that ultimately Gordon's future will rest with him after he serves his league suspension.
Quarterback Brian Hoyer said, "You don't want to assume anything because he is such a threat and talent on that offense, hopefully it all works out for the best and we will go from there."
Pettine said his team has done a great job not letting Gordon's off-the-field troubles become a distraction, It's easy to say that now, but losing your best receiver is not something a team like the Browns is looking forward to dealing with as they try to push this team forward.

State officials gathered at the Capitol to complete the purchase of the Babcock Ranch in southwest Florida.
The Division of Lands' director says the state now owns 74 thousand acres of the ranch in Lee and Charlotte counties.
"Preserving land for us and the children and the people behind us to come play and recreate on," said Eva Armstrong. "And with this one, we get it all. Every type of recreation you could possibly want plus we get to preserve a working ranch for future generations to see what ranching is all about."
The state legislature contributed $310 million for the purchase and the Lee County Commission chipped in 40 million more.
Environmentalists praise the deal, saying it provides a habitat for wildlife while protecting a valuable water recharge area.

Econo Lodge Old Town
Traveler Comments
This motel is advertised as within walking distance of Old Town Alb. If you can walk about a mile through some questionable neiborhoods and feel safe...then the advertisement is correct. If you are a non-smoker and ask for a non-smoking room you will be sadly disappointed as this establishment does not enforce this rule. The rooms do not look or feel clean. I can't recommend this property for anyone. Any complaints lodged with the owner go unadressed. Stay elswhere. The front dest clerk was the silver lining. The young man did all he was able to do to help us.

Few days ago, I disagreed with some of his comment/opinions as I often do. But that was no reason for me to attack him with negative comments about his decent character. In a forum where we actually talk about cycling and other related issues, pass around valuable advice to one another, and all while being respectful to one another, I feel the need to apologize to Wogman. What I posted was uncalled for and distasteful. Sorry Dude!
If there is one thing that I have learrned from having a beautiful very unconfrontational wife, it's that a real man apologizes for his uneccesary actions and hurtful words when they are undeserved. I'm being a man and apologizing cause Wogman didn't deserve the attack and I/we must make an honest effort to keep this forum friendly. I also apologize to other cyldes and athenas that may have read the material, although nothing like attacks elsewhere onthenet, it was uncalled for and I apologize. I pride myself on stepping up when I am in the wrong!
So Wogster, if you were my wife, I'd kiss you on the forehead, say I'm sorry, nibble on your ear a little bit then make love to you. But judging from your avatar, you aren't at all my type so thank God you aren't my wife.
I deleted the comments/post so you others don't go asking me "what?"

According to a new report from CNET that cites NPD DisplaySearch analysts, Retina-quality displays for Apple's next iPad mini should enter production either next month, or sometime in July. Interestingly, previous intel from the same firm indicated that a Retina iPad mini wouldn't be released until as early as the first quarter of 2014, before redacting their initial analysis to suggest that a 2013 third quarter refresh is more realistic.
Furthermore, NPD DisplaySearch also states that the second-generation iPad mini should begin shipping sometime within the July to September quarter. Alternatively, other sources propose a solid launch date of later in the year to allow for more time between generations.
Additionally, Richard Shim from the same firm claims that LG Display (a current iPad mini display supplier) will continue and sustain their already prominent role in the production of displays for the iPad mini, including the next-generation device's Retina display. However, Apple's main competitor and unlikely supplier, Samsung, will remain out of the iPad mini display supply loop.
With LG reportedly filling the roll as Apple's main supplier for display panels for the current iPad mini, AU Optronics also plays a part in production and is expected to maintain their position as Apple refreshes the device.
Unsurprisingly, Shim also purposed that the next generation iPad mini will adopt the same 2,048-by-1,536 Retina resolution as the full-sized iPad, while having a higher pixel density due to the iPad mini's smaller 7.9-inch screen size. Maintaining the same resolutions across Apple's size-differing iPad models is the only logic move, as it will allow developers to continue creating apps for a single screen size, effectively allowing for higher-quality applications.
Finally, Apple CEO Tim Cook recently mentioned in a earning conference call that Apple has a number of incredible products coming "in the fall and across all of 2014". Stay tuned for complete coverage on Apple, WWDC 2013 and next-generation iOS devices.

New Gosselin Drama! Kate In Tears!Sassy Smith
In the neverending trainwreck that is Jon and Kate Gosselin, there is a new drama unfolding that has Kate in tears, according to sources. What has Jon done now?
According to RadarOnline, Jon has told Kate he plans to bring his girlfriend, Hailey Glassman, 22, to their Reading, Pa. family home so she can spend time with the kids.
Apparently Kate was devastated by this news and broke down in tears. She thinks it's way too soon for their eight children to be meeting daddy's new girlfriend. Kate asked Jon not to do this yet, to think of the children's emotional needs and wants him to wait.
A friend of Kate's said, "I think Jon is incredibly insensitive for doing this. This came out of nowhere. It took Kate totally by surprise."
However, Kate's pleading fell on deaf ears and Jon was allegedly nasty to his soon-to-be ex-wife. Another source added, "Jon thinks Kate is a big drama queen and turns on the tears to get sympathy."
Whether or not she's a drama queen (I don't think she is, personally), is not the point. Kate is saying it's too soon for the children to be meeting their father's girlfriend and I have to agree with that! The divorce isn't even final, and it's only been a few short months since the kids learned of their parents' split. Geez, is Jon even thinking of them, at all?
It's bad enough that Jon went on national TV to tell the world he never really loved his wife much and that he was "abused" and his new just-out-of-college girlfriend is his soulmate. Is it wrong that I want to punch him in the neck?

Linn State, LU study budget options
Sunday, January 29, 2012
Unless lawmakers change Gov. Jay Nixon's proposed budget plans, Missouri's public colleges and universities are in line for a 12.5 percent funding cut next year as part of the state's effort to close a more than $500 million gap between expected revenues and planned expenses.
Several lawmakers, including Senate Appropriations Chairman Kurt Schaefer, R-Columbia, have said they'll do all they can to improve the schools' financial future.
But college administrators are looking to see where they can make the cuts, if they have to.
At Lincoln University, the governor's proposed 2012-13 state budget cuts $2,426,708 from this year's appropriation level, leaving LU's proposed budget almost $2.93 million less than was spent in the 2010-11 business year.
Nixon proposes to cut Linn State Tech by $642,460 from this year's appropriation — which is already more than $133,000 smaller than the 2010-11 school year.

Microsoft Power Point is a very important tool in terms of presentation and we all use it in our daily lives. Have you ever came to know or used a tool called automatic advancement in Microsoft Power point? No, then the automatic advancement tool in Power point enables to transition the slides automatically rather than manually changing the presentation slides which definitely give a professional look to your presentations. This will be very useful tool for students as well as business associates who give presentation regularly and have to always change slides manually with a pause which looks sometimes very non professional.
So let's look at the procedure about how you can use this automatic advancement tool in Microsoft Power point.
Procedure to automatically advance the slides in Powerpoint 2010:
1. Open Microsoft Power point and click on the Animation tab which is located at the top of the screen as shown in the screen shot below. Click on the "Animations" tab on the ribbon and then select your favorite "Transitions" option from the Ribbon.
2. On the top right section of the ribbon you will find the tab titled "Advance Slide" and just below to that you will find that "On mouse click" option is checked or is marked up with a tick, you can uncheck that option if you don't want to use it. It is recommended to check this option which will help you in changing the slide in a much easier way as you get an option to override the automatic changing of slide. If you select mouse click option the advantage is, if you have finished your slide presentation in 1 minute and 5 seconds and if your timing set is 1 minute and 10 seconds, then you need not wait for 5 seconds, just a simple click will change the slide.
There is also another option which is "Automatically after", this option is just below "On mouse click" option. This option is responsible for automatic advancement of the slides. You also need to check this option for activating power point's automatic advancement for the first slide.
Now, assign the timing of the "automatically after" as per your convenience, as if you want first slide to change after 1 minutes and 21 seconds then all you need to set "Automatically after" with 1:21 which will look like this as shown below.
This is a tiny yet powerful tool which we mostly didn't use it. We generally do lot of rehearsals before giving any presentation, so with proper timing and with proper timing you can change the slide easily and that too in an automatic fashion.
Now when you have learnt on how to automatically advance the slides, here are some tips which you should keep a note for a better and efficient delivery of presentation.
Like i said before giving the presentation rehearsal is a must and timed test will help you better in fine tuning as well as enhancing the delivery of the presentation and just a tip it's better to use more and more pictorial representations in your presentations rather than lengthy write ups as people generally tend to concentrate more on pictures rather than write ups.

DENVER - Police here arrested a protester after a crowd gathered at a downtown corner to watch two groups of protesters exchange shouted insults, and police pepper-sprayed other protesters on the first night of the Democratic convention.
There also was word of a potential assassination plot thwarted by police. A traffic stop by police in Aurora may have disrupted it. Two men were arrested on weapons charges after the traffic stop early Sunday.
One man was charged with suspicion of being a felon in possession of a weapon after police found two rifles, a high-powered scope and methamphetamine in his car. When police accompanied himl to his hotel in Glendale, a second man jumped from a window and was injured in a four-story fall.
"We're aware of the matter discussed tonight by the Aurora Police Department,'' U.S. Attorney Troy Eid said in a statement released tonight. "Federal law enforcement is working hand-in-glove with the Aurora Police Department. Because this matter is currently under investigation, there is little we can say right now.
"We can say this: We're absolutely confident there is no credible threat to the candidate, the Democratic National Convention, or the people of Colorado."
In Denver tonight, one group of demonstrators was shouting anti-gay slogans and Biblical phrases when another group in town for the convention started returning insults: "Take home your hate!"
One man with the counter-protesters was grabbed by police but managed to run. A second man with that group started fighting with officers and was arrested, the Denver Post reports.
"The person they wanted to arrest appeared to have items that could injure another person," said Denver police spokesman Sonny Jackson, who was nearby. The name and charges against the person arrested were not immediately released.
He was among fewer than 10 people arrested since visitors started arriving for the convention, the Post reports.
Riot police using pepper spray forced a couple of hundred protesters out of the Civic Center and blocked them before they could reach the 16th Street Mall downtown, the Post reported.
Police surrounded the protesters along 15th Street between Court Street and Cleveland and then moved up reinforcements, including at least two armored vehicles. Shortly before 8:30 p.m. Mountain time, police started to let some of those trapped leave.
"I'm a little in shock," said Joey-Kenzie, 21, of Denver, after spending about 90 minutes in the crowd pinned in by officers.

In AA, Alcoholics Anonymous, you sit on a cold metal chair in a church basement, weak coffee in a styrofoam cup in your hand, and you tell your story; what it was like when you were drinking and what it is like now that you are not. You wont remember what you've said when you are done because you were so nervous you blew through it like fire through a log cabin. You recall explosions and how its better now that the fires out. Any rational person knows that drinking and puking and a life of chaos does not equal peace, a rational, non alcoholic person that is, but to the room full of drunks listening, they need to be reminded. That's what keeps us sober, stories. The more years away from our last drink does not make us any less alcoholic, it just gives us time to learn the coping skills needed to get through emotional situations. Give us a bad day and we can, and often do, go back as if we never stopped. That's why they call alcoholism a disease. It is one of the mind in which once an addict gene is triggered, we become insane.
"If a little is good, more is better," said every addict that ever lived.
Alcohol trickles down my throat and all care for health and well being disappear. With my misshapen alcoholic gene I don't want to eat or sleep or be sober ever again. The gene wants to drink until I drown. And, like the psychopathic gene it is, it disguises it's devious intentions of doom and romances me. I have a poetic fondness for amber lighting and the dark wood of the classic pub. Its an embryonic cushion. Nearly all my boyfriends I met at the bar, poets, musician. Love equalled amber bottles and intoxication.
What got me to stop drinking was my last hangover. I drank a bottle of vodka and woke up shaking and needed help but there was no one in my life to call. I knew I would die if I continued to live that way but I told you, addicts have to be reminded. When life gets uncomfortable I still think about going to the bar and its promise of oblivion. Filling the ache in my chest with whiskey is something I've done since I was 15. I need to hear a girl with only a few days sober tell her story that with this relapse her depression took over and her emptiness and loneliness made her feel like she couldn't go on. "Why bother," whispers the mutant gene, and she tried to kill herself, again. She has bandages on her wrist. Alcohol not only dulls your ability to make sensible decisions, it increases sadness. What starts out as a way to numb your pain, (the first drink),turns into a hell you can't get out of until you are sober. Ive been in meetings where people have lost limbs due to drinking. One woman stood in front of a Mac truck, and there was a guy who lost his arm. It is these stories that saves me from going to the bar when my father dies because believe me, I want oblivion.
First, it helps you to tell your story, it lightens your load, but it helps others as well. Not everyone will identify with you but someone will, and all it takes is one person to save a life. WE are that important. We can give hope to the hopeless and create light where there is only darkness. "Hey, look, I'm making it through. You can too."
Because even though the ache is bottomless, joy is too. You can experience great happiness even in the midst of great pain. It is worth it to keep going and see your life through.
So that is what I am saying. You tell me your stories, and Ill tell mine to you.

Prime-time for the streaking purple and gold
Chicago Bears (5-8) at Minnesota Vikings (7-6), Monday night -7:30pm
Dare I say, "Are you ready for some football?"
The winter just doesn't seem so bad when the Vikings are above .500 come the ides of December. The air doesn't have quite the bite when your team is on a 4 game winning streak, play 2 of their last 3 games at home, and winning the remaining games guarantees a playoff spot for the purple. Weeks 15, 16, and 17 are tailor-made for two types of NFL teams. First they are for the winning teams, to establish positioning while gathering momentum; to brush the weaker teams aside to the links in Florida and Arizona. These weeks are also for the spoiler teams. Those teams with nothing to lose so they suit up and get excited for the only thing left for them to hang their hat on.
I only include the above for the reverse jinx.
Things in the NFC playoff race tightened up a lot between Thursday and yesterday. Up top, Dallas lost and is clinching to the tiebreaker they hold over Green Bay for home field advantage throughout the post season. In the wild card race, the New York Giants continue to look like the worst 9-5 team you'd every want to root for. And while Arizona dropped a game, both New Orleans and Washington at 7-7 are very much alive and keeping the pressure on Minnesota.
Tonight's game is an opportunity for the Vikings to prove to the rest of the league a number of things. One, that they are going to earn a wild card spot. Two, that whether Adrian Peterson or Chester Taylor runs the ball, you must pay attention to Minnesota's running attack. Three, that focusing on the Vikes' running game isn't going to be enough to beat this team. Quarterback Tarvaris Jackson is coming into his own and has this team believing in him. Finally, it is a chance for the Minnesota Vikings to show the rest of the NFC that this squad is a winner and you don't want to face them come January unless you're itching to play some golf.
Chicago 13, Minnesota 20 Final
Only 78 yards today but 2 touchdowns for All Day.
It was all about the purple pants. For the first time since the 1964 season when the Detroit Lions brought only their whites to a game*, the Vikes went all purple for a game. It's a good look, especially on the likes of Pat Williams.
The Vikings prevailed in this game tonight either because their defense held the Bears to just 209 total yards on offense, a miniscule 32 on the ground; or because Kyle Orton and the Bears offense are hard to look at. Literally. It's not like the Vikings didn't provide da Bears with da opportunity for the win with 4 turnovers leading to 10 points in the first half.
Tarvaris Jackson wore his inexperience on his sleeve tonight making multiple poor decisions while under constant pressure from the Chicago defense specifically Brian Urlacher who had a monster game. This week Brad Childress and the coaching staff must address the problems poor QB play leads to, and stress the importance to Jackson of taking the sack when necessary or throwing the ball away if no receiver is open. Jackson made things way too interesting tonight.
Like Ted Knight and Jm J. Bullock, this game was a little Too Close for Comfort.
The 8-6 Vikings will now host the Washington Redskins next Sunday night, the second of their back-to-back prime-time contests in the game of the season. The Skins are on the outside looking in and would like nothing more than to snap the Vikings 5 game winning streak and pull even with Minnesota for the last remaining playoff spot.
