Writing Tips for Non-Writers Who Don’t Want to Work at Writing 

I struggle with writing. So, I thought this link would help.  And it did.  See … short sentences!-)

Creating impressive class presentations

I never knew how to do fancy animations anyway …

The 10/20/30 Rule of PowerPoint

Food for thought … I do agree with the font size especially.

Building a balanced life

Read on for more … but for starters, this is a good appetizer:

“It’s easy to say what balance is not:

  • It’s not a fixed state. Life circumstances and work and career expectations continually change. What seemed desirable only a few months ago may now be unacceptable.
  • It’s not some mathematical ratio between hours spent working and leisure or family time—let alone a 50:50 split.
  • It’s not a way for organizations to try to turn reasonable and civilized working patterns into supposed “benefits” and pass them off as part of remuneration.
  • It’s not an excuse for trying to get more paid vacations or better maternity (or paternity) leave arrangements.
  • It’s not even a matter of time management or day-to-day decisions about when, how, and whether to spend time on all of life’s various aspects.”

Faith in Humanity: How to Bring People Closer, and Restore KindnessKindness is rare these days.

Can a minister be saved?

soul searching question.

thanks for the great links… i was wondering, is it a plugin that you use for the social bookmarking that you have at the top of each post?

Thanks for the link! I’m also curious about what plugin you use!

The social bookmark links were hand coded into Wordpress as there wasn’t a plugin with the preferred combination of social bookmarks.

Hope to write a plugin that will allow folks to add in their own favourite social networking site. So far, I have yet to find a non-techy solution for that.
