Introduction to Outlook 2007 - Design and Use Electronic Business Cards
The exchange of business cards is a time-honored ritual in the world of business. Microsoft chose to honor that common practice by adding electronic business cards to Outlook 2007. This brings them in line with most other modern email and contact management products.. These cards, created using the industry standard vCard (.vcf) format, not only look good on the screen, but can be exchanged easily with most any other modern email or contact management program.
That said, please be aware that while Outlook makes it easy to work with electronic business cards, designing quality cards is a whole different story, and the province of the corporate marketing folks. This puts the art of designing quality electronic business cards outside the scope of this article. So we'll talk only about how you create and use electronic business cards. It's up to you, in compliance with corporate policy, to come up with a design you are proud of.
How to Create an Electronic Business Card
Whenever you create a contact, Outlook automatically creates a very basic electronic business card to go with it. These cards are nothing more than lists of the basic information you entered for that contact, such as their name and address, along with whatever picture, if any, you have assigned to that contact. The procedure that follows is a very basic set of instructions for creating fancier cards to that replace these basic default cards.
To design a better electronic business card for any given contact, follow this procedure:
Open the contact you're going to design a new card for. The current electronic business card for this contact appears on the right side of the contact window.
Right-click the current version of the card, then click Edit Business Card. This opens the Edit Business Card dialog box.
You'll see numerous options and controls for editing the business card. Microsoft really made our lives easier here. They've included an image of the contact's card that changes as you make changes to the controls in this dialog box. That means you can see the results of each change right away. That also means you can undo changes you don't like and allows you to freely experiment with all the design options.
Once you have selected and formatted the fields you want to appear on the card, move over to the top of the Card Design section and work your way down. Experiment with the settings to find a design you like, or follow the directions from corporate to give your card the approved look. To include an image other than the photo associated with the contact, click the Image button and insert it. Click Background to apply a background color to the card.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 as many times as necessary to get a design you like. Click OK when you're done designing.
Using Your Own Electronic Business Card
Your new business card design will now be visible in Business Card view and whenever you attach it to a message you're working on. To attach the card to a message you're writing, first position the cursor in the message at the location where you want the business card to appear. Then click Insert Business Card in the Include section of the ribbon while you're editing the message. The card appears in the body of the message at the location specified by the cursor. The card is also attached to the message in .VCF format so the recipient can easily save it.

The red pine were planted with white pine in the plantation in 1965. Most of the white pine, which weren't growing well, were harvested in 1980-81. The goal for the remaining red pine was to produce quality saw logs. The red pine continued to grow well, but it became apparent about six years ago that even with the removal of the white pine, the heavy stocking was causing a decline in diameter and crown size. It was obvious that a serious thinning was in order. At the same time a major invasives problem was noted, especially in the southern third of the stand. Buckthorn were prevalent along with some honeysuckle and barberry. Our forester recommended that the thinning be held off until the invasives were under control; the opening of the stand to more sunlight would exacerbate the spread of invasives even more. In September and October of the next four years, effort was put ...

Microsoft Office Excel 2007 Review
A lot of people don't like this new version because it's different. Change is not widely accepted. The new version of Excel is the same as the old version with updated features, themes, design, etc. I found the new version to make it easier for me to find features that i didn't know existed. I cringe when I'm forced into using the '03 version during work hours!

Excel Services renders an Excel spreadsheet as HTML so others can access the information within a Web browser. Other options include creating business dashboards from spreadsheets to share within a portal, and tracking the key performance indicators of your business using browser-based dashboards that can be created from Excel spreadsheets, Excel Web Access, and Office SharePoint Server 2007. You can also enjoy the flexibility of saving files as XPS or PDF (with the installation of an add-in) for easier sharing.
Effectively Manage Sensitive Information
Excel 2007 and Excel Services enable you to manage and control spreadsheets on a server to help protect important business information and ensure that people are working with the most current data. Centrally manage sensitive information by publishing spreadsheets to SharePoint Server 2007. This both helps ensure that the members of your organization are working with the most current business information and prevents the spread of multiple versions of the same file. For added peace of mind, you can protect confidential business information while helping to ensure people can view the data they need with report management features. Using Office SharePoint Server 2007, your organization's IT staff can set up and manage Data Connection Libraries that enable people to more safely connect to external data sources without assistance. For added flexibility, you can also use the Excel Services Web services application programming interface (API) to integrate server calculation of Excel files into other applications.

Use the product but be aware of the difficulty of a used product by the producer.

Company's Functions Should Determine Choice of Office Software
Starting a new business, or upgrading an existing business, brings with it a host of decisions. Once the type of business is chosen and the business plan is place, it's time to begin setting up management, and that requires choosing office software.
For instance, keeping track of clients is the initial step in business. This involves more than merely logging their transactions, which could be done in any accounting software. Today the most successful businesses focuses on what B-schools term "Customer Relationship Management, " or CRM. This means that once you've sold a product or service to a customer, you want to keep that customer for several reasons.
First, it's more economical to keep an existing customer than to go out and to replace it with a new customer. This reality affects the bottom line significantly. Second, extraordinary customer service is one of the keys to business success today. Recognizing your clients as people, not merely as figures in a spreadsheet, gains the company a reputation as a firm that truly values its customers, not just their money. Third, choosing the right CRM software enables managers not only to keep track of customers, but also to maintain records that help apply metrics to measure sales performances. In other words, business managers and owners should seek out CRM office software that maintains client data for personal contact and can generate reports on sales performance.
Next, Customer Relationship Management Software should be networked with accounting software and manufacturing software. After all, how will the company fill the client's order, and complete the exchange of money for goods or services, unless the information is sent from sales to the accounting and production departments?
Manufacturing companies typically have some kind of software that will generate a "job ticket" based on information supplied by sales. At the same time, the information from sales should also alert the accounting department to do one of two things: set up a new file for a new client, or note that an existing client has submitted a new order and be prepared to generate an invoice once the work is completed.
In addition, companies that produce goods also have to keep track of supplies and/or components for the making of those goods. This function often is spread across several departments, with the accounting unit ultimately responsible for pulling together a inventory report that is sent to all managers.
Finally, there's the need to communicate. In these days of digital communication, this can mean emails, websites, digital newsletters, electronic slide presentations, podcasts and even online videos. Written communication hasn't disappeared, either; it's still necessary to write letters, record contracts and distribute brochures, marketing kits and other printed matter. Thus office software for communication has to take into account that business today operates in a world where both print and digital communication are required.
When choosing office software, it's possible find entire suites of programs that are related to one another to handle these functions. The best of such suites are easy to learn and use, exchange data among programs with few problems, and are cost-effective for the business.
Public Speaking: 3 Rules for PowerPoint Slides
1. Bullets and phrases: When I conduct public speaking training, I always remind my audience to keep their PowerPoint slides easy to read. Pretend you're on the interstate where someone could read the information driving 55 miles per hour. Bullets work best as they are easier to read than sentences. Also, you are less likely to read the slides this way. The biggest rule with PowerPoint slides is to keep them big, bold, and simple. Your slides should resemble a billboard. No more than 6 bullets per slide and 6 to 8 words per line. Stick to three colors per PowerPoint slide, otherwise your audience will start focusing more on color and less on your content.
2. Font choices: Often, people come up to me privately in my public speaking training seminars and confide that many of their colleagues use "print that is too small for anyone to read." They secretly urge me to tell everyone attending that the print must be large enough to read the PowerPoint slide. In addition, I'm often told by the person who hires me that many of their employees put too much information on their slides. With public speaking and visual aids, less is more.
Pick simple fonts, but make certain they're large enough to read for people in the back rows. The print size should be at least a 28 font for titles and at least 22 point for other text. Simple fonts with clean lines are much easier to read. For instance, Times New Roman, Gothic and Verdana are good choices. Within those font families you have the ability to enhance a page using italics and bold, just go easy on the underlines. And never put letters in all capitals. Instead, use upper and lower case lettering. It is much easier to read, and doesn't look like you're shouting.
3.Color and contrast: Take into consideration the size of the room in which you'll be speaking. Will everyone in that last row be able to read the information on your PowerPoint slides? In order to assist them in reading what's on screen, choose soft "easy-on-the-eyes" background colors such as light blue or turquoise blue. For lettering, choose a contrasting color differing from your background such as white, black or navy. For example, use light lettering on a dark background, or dark lettering against a light background. Never use all sentences in black print against a plain white background. It is boring and no one will read it.
Public speaking and the cardinal rule: you never want to read what's on the screen. After all, you are the presenter. Your audience assumes you're the expert. Also, when you read what's on your slides, mostly likely your back is to the audience. They won't focus on you. They'll just lose focus and start thinking about other things. Therefore, use bullets and phrases as opposed to sentences on your slides and in handouts. Think of what's on your slides only as "fast food for the eyes."
In my public speaking training, I frequentlly see highly educated, knowledgeable people trying to cram too much information on a single slide. This is especially true when presenting technical material.Technical people have a propensity to put too many words, charts, colors and graphs on a single slide. Know your material, yet keep it simple. Practice. Rehearse with your PowerPoint slides. Get honest feedback from your friends, family members and colleagues. You can do it. Good luck!

Microsoft Word Tips - Ten Ideas to Improve Your Word Skills
Word in a very powerful word processing package, but would take even the most accomplished PC user days to learn all its features, time the majority of Word users haven't got. I have therefore put together a few quick tips to help you improve your Word skills.
The below instructions are applicable to Word 2007.
Formatting text - to format a single word in a sentence, simply left-click on the word, then press the CTRL button plus, for example I for italics, B for bold etc. Right-clicking on the word brings up the Quick Style box where you can change more attributes. To select a sentence, press CTRL and right-click in the sentence, a paragraph, triple-click in the paragraph or to select an entire document, CTRL+A.
Disabling Word's mini toolbar - although useful for formatting common options with a mouse click, it can interrupt when you want to click and drag text. You can disable the mini toolbar by clicking the Office button, select Options, click Popular in the left column and deselect "Show Mini Toolbar".
Insert tables - tables are the best way to arrange data in a Word document. Position your cursor where you would like to insert the table in your document, open the Insert ribbon, (the horizontal graphics across the page top), click Table in the Tables section to reveal a grid of boxes on the drop-down menu. Here you can set the number of rows and columns for your table. To customise the table, right-click on the double-headed arrow at the top left table corner. Select Table Properties for advanced table formatting.
Automatically sort data - you alphabetise a list (names, numbers, dates) after you complete it using Word's Sort feature. Highlight the data you want to sort, click the Sort button in the Paragraph section of the Home ribbon, use the dropdown box to select the type of data selected and choose ascending or descending order.
Change paper size - by default, new documents in Word are set up for letter-sized paper. But, you may want to print on a different size such as A4. It's easy to change the paper size in Word 2007 by opening the Page Layout ribbon, find the Page Layout section, click Size and select More Paper Sizes.
Setting page margins - the default page side margins of 1¼ inches and top/bottom of 1 inch in Word are suitable for most documents. However, if you need to change the margins to squeeze an extra line or two onto a page, rather than use a second sheet of paper, just click the Page Layout tab and then margins, where you will find extra settings and a custom tab to make your own.
Adding a picture watermark - watermarks are often used to provide document information - to show it's a copy, a working draft or to embellish the document with an image or logo. Open the Page Layout ribbon, click the Page Background section and click Watermark. Select Custom Watermark on the dropdown menu, then tick Picture Watermark, select Picture, navigate to your photo and select the image you want. You can automatically or manually scale, and select Washout. Then click Apply and OK.
Inserting a caption - sometime you might want to add captions to refer to figures or other items within your document to make it easier for readers to understand content. Select the object, open the References on the main menu and click on Insert Caption in the Captions section. In the Label box, select type in the Position box, specify the placement, and in the Caption box, add any additional information. Then click OK.
Showing the number of words - it can often be useful to know how many words there are in your document. To turn word count on, right-click the Status bar at the bottom of the window and select Word Count. To see the word count for a selection, just highlight the text. For more detailed information such as character count, open the Review ribbon and click Word Count in the Proofing section.
Disabling editing languages - sometimes correctly spelled words are marked as incorrect. This can happen if the editing language has somehow been changed. Click the Office button, select Word Options and click Language Settings on the Popular tab. Then ensure your preferred language is selected under Primary editing language and click Remove for any unwanted languages under Enabled editing languages. Click OK and Word will then only check spelling and grammar for the language you've chosen.

How to Easily Search Presentation in PowerPoint
There are different methods on how you can search presentation in your computer. As a computer user, you know how to perform this so that the files you need will be obtained as soon as you can. Searching for files is a typical task that Windows users do and often they go to the Start button and then click on Find or Search. Alternatively, you can right click on Start and then choose Find. A window will appear and then you can enter the filename of the PPT file that you are looking for. By hitting on the Search button, you can get the PowerPoint presentation list.
Another way to find PowerPoint files is through the use of a PowerPoint search engine. This is a tool that can often be downloaded on the internet. This helps in finding the files faster and easier. You do not have to know the filename of the PowerPoint presentation. You can just enter some information that you remember and then it will provide the results for you. It works just like the web search engine and thus, you get accurate results as well. There are some that are expensive and they are actually intended for businesses. If you would only be using the tool for personal purposes, it is better that you opt for a free utility. This way, you can get lightning fast results without paying for them.
Now, there are some people who are quite hesitant about downloading other programs on the web. They are actually being cautious due to the fact that there are some malicious files that often go with the utilities that you download. Therefore, it is wise that you turn on your anti virus application before you decide to obtain an executable file on the Internet. It is also wise not to download since you can just use Find when you are a Windows user. Apart from that, there is another way and this one does not require you to get out of PowerPoint and open another program.
Yes, it is possible to search presentation within PowerPoint. To do this, you will need to follow these steps. The first thing that you have to do is to click on the File menu and then select File Search. A task pane on the right part of Microsoft PowerPoint will open. In the box that you can see, enter the name of the file that you want to open. You can make things easier by using the other search options found at the bottom of the box. There, you will have to specify the location of the file and then choose the type of file that you are searching for. Since you are only looking for a PowerPoint file, you will only need to check on PowerPoint files and leave the others unchecked. This is crucial if you want to get search results faster since PowerPoint will only be searching for the file based on your given conditions. So you see, PowerPoint can serve as a file finder tool for you as well.
Hope2601 Pt 10, Adam Savage and "The RFID Censorship Question" www.HOPE.net
Adam Savage answers a question about RFID Censorship after his talk on his Fascination with the Dodo Bird at the Last HOPE Hacker Conference (www.HOPE.net) which took place on July, 18-20 2008 at the Hotel Pennsylvania in New York City. --- Mythbusters Host Retracts RFID Censorship - Mythbusters host Adam Savage is retracting comments he made at a hackers conference where he said an episode exposing security flaws in credit card RFID technology was squelched by credit card company lawyers. In a new statement Adam says, " If I went into the detail of exactly why this story didn't get filmed, it's so bizarre and convoluted that no one would believe me, but suffice to say...the decision not to continue on with the RFID story was made by our production company, Beyond Productions, and had nothing to do with Discovery, or their ad sales department." --- Steven Levy gave the keynote address. Kevin Mitnick, Steve Rambam, Jello Biafra, and Adam Savage of MythBusters were also featured speakers at The Last HOPE Hackers Conference. The name referred to the expectation that this would have been the final HOPE conference due to the scheduled demolition of its venue, the Hotel Pennsylvania. www.TheNextHOPE.org is scheduled for Summer 2010. --- Includes the 'infamous' new-yourk point-of-view on 'unglazed' ceramic tiles for ovens to make 'better pizza', OMG!!!

Xobni Plus
Xobni Plus Review
Given the number of features that Xobni adds to Outlook and the time it can save you, purchasing Xobni Plus is a no brainer! With so many great features, it is hard for me to pick a favorite but some of my top features are advanced search, Xobni powered autosuggest, automatic phone number extraction, and social media capabilities.
Advanced Search - I have every email I have ever written or received. As a result, I have a lot of good information BUT finding the mail I need, can be difficult and time consuming. Xobni helps me find exactly what I'm after in just a few seconds. With advanced search, I can further refine the already great Xobni search by limiting the search to certain folders, people, dates, the presence of attachments, etc...
People Profiles - Xobni indexes your mail for fast searching but it also create a profile for each person you have corresponded with. This is generally many more people than you have actual Outlook contact records for. This profile contains information that is "auto-magically" gathered. This includes phone numbers for the contact based on mail data (or Outlook contact) extraction and pictures and position/company information from social media sources such as LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Xing, and Hoover's. When you view a profile, you can also quickly see mails and attachments exchanged with that person. This is all very useful and it's right in front of you whenever you need it.
Autosuggest - When you start typing the name of a person in the address box of a mail, Outlook gives you some suggestions to save you time. For example, when you start typing "Ja" you might see someone named "James" that you've mailed. While Outlook can make some suggestions on its own, Xobni Plus takes that to a whole new level. Outlook's autosuggest list is based on people that you have mailed. The suggestions are stored in a file which can be corrupted or lost when you change computers or re-install. Xobni Plus makes suggestions based on all of your mail. You don't have to have sent a mail to that person to see them in the suggested list. If you change computers, Xobni will still make all the same suggestions assuming you copy your mails over as well. It's a bit hard to describe here but once you've seen this feature in action, you'll see how much time it saves you and you'll NEVER want to be without it!!!
I could go on and on about Xobni. I really think it's an outstanding program with some great time saving benefits. I have purchased multiple copies for myself and friends and family. Whenever I get a new computer, Xobni Plus is one of the very first programs I install. I would be lost without it!!! The company offers outstanding support and there is a very helpful community forum in addition to formal support. Xobni also has a great product for Blackberry phones (and hopefully other Smartphones in the future) that I would suggest checking out on their website.
Xobni Plus Feature
- Lightening fast search results enable you to search by first, last or company name to find exactly what you need immediately.
- Automatically create profiles with photos for everyone! Puts a face and phone number to every contact.
- Each profile includes all the emails, links and attachments you've exchanged, as well as integration with the social web like Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and more.
- Ranked AutoSuggest lets you access all your contacts in ranked priority in the email composition screen, where you need them most.
- Xobni Plus for Outlook is a sidebar that will save you time searching through and managing your email.
Xobni Plus Overview
Xobni Plus for Outlook (zob-nee) is a sidebar that will save you time searching and managing your email. It allows you to search all your email by a contact’s name or company and see their automatically generated profile - complete with their photo and contact info, as well as all the emails, links and attachments you’ve exchanged. Integration with LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, XING, and Salesforce.com provides immediate access to the latest updates for each contact to keep you up-to-date. Lightning-Fast Search enables you to easily search all your email by first, last and company name. Refine searches by date, sender, subject and more. Ranked AutoSuggest gives you immediate access to the email addresses you've sent to - ranked by how often you communicate with them. Xobni for Outlook has been downloaded over 5 million times and has received praise from both users and the media.

I am very happy with this my purchase! The package contains everything from office suite to antivirus. It was installed on empty WIndows machine and it includes everything. I installed it on all three computers and voila I have complete professional setup on all of my machines! Awesome. I really like the extra fonts collection and clipart it comes with. The office is amazing, the vector graphics part that allows charting is very cool. The writer is very nice and easy to work with as it opens all of my old word files, same with excel files. I had an old MS Office on my old machine and was considering buying MS again, but man, if I can get the same performance for much less, why would I be paying more? Money are hard to earn these days. I have one very elaborate financial report file with cross-table references and calculation, no problem it works just fine. For the price paid, I got much more than I paid for. Highly recommended.

Timing a Presentation With Microsoft PowerPoint 2007
It is possible to rehearse your presentation and record the length of time it takes to display each slide. When you have done this, you can then apply that timing to your presentation so that each slide advances automatically based on how long it takes the slide to display everything. By doing this, you will ensure your show ends exactly on time.
To time your presentation, first you will need to go into the slide show tab. Make sure that you have notes on hand so that you can record your slide shows. Within the slide show tab, click the rehearse timings button to start the slide show and begin recording the timing. Rehearse the presentation of each slide, and note the elapsed time for each slide, and also the elapsed time for the entire presentation itself.
If you encounter problems whilst recording the times, click the repeat button to restart the timing for that certain slide. You can also suspend your rehearsal by clicking the pause button. Click that button again to resume the rehearsal. Continue rehearsing the presentation until you have reached the end of the show.
When you have finished recording the slide show, make sure the total time for it was within the allocated time. Click yes to keep the recorded timing, else click no, and keep repeating it until you get it right. With the use rehearsed timings check box selected, start the show again from the beginning and make sure that the timing for each slide is correct.
To conclude, timing your presentation is very important to make sure that it runs smoothly and as planned. By taking the time to time your presentation, you will avoid delivering an incomplete show. Taking these precautions ensures that your show ends at the time that you want it to.
How to Excel in College
College is an inevitable phase that you could not escape from if you want to become a skilled professional someday. Sometimes though, we under perform not because we are dumb, but because we lack strategy and a good methodology. We should also be street-smart as well as smart-smart. There are very simple ways to excel in college. Read on...
Believe in yourself
If you don't believe in yourself, who will? If you understand that there is such a thing as multiple intelligences as argued by Howard Gardner, then that would be the first success for you. If you are not well versed in Math or chemistry, it does not mean that you're not intelligent.
According to the Theory of Multiple Intelligences, each individual has his own talent. These are spiritual, visual, musical, naturalistic, kinesthetic, verbal, interpersonal, and intrapersonal and many more types.
The secret is to evaluate yourself, determine which type are you, and start from there. If you are more of a person who could speak well then select a course that would aptly utilize your talent. If you're good at interpersonal relationships, then you can go into psychology or behavioral sciences. Each person has his own uniqueness. Find your strength and focus on it. If you cannot excel in Academics, then participate in extracurricular activities. You'll surely find one activity that you could excel, even if it's in poetry. Don't allow your mind to limit what you can do.
The power of the mind is the most powerful weapon you can wield. If you think, you can - you can! If you think you cannot, then, you cannot. This of course takes training. Rome wasn't built in a day. Keep psyching yourself that you can do it, and eventually you can. It may take days, months, or even years, but you will succeed. Dream big, and act big! You can conquer the universe if you want to, just be ready to work hard for it.
Learn how to be organized and methodical
Organize your daily activities. Prepare your schedule everyday and stick to it. Allot more time to subjects or endeavors you find difficult. Make an outline of your lectures. Go to the library and do not just rely on the Internet for your research outputs. Don't cram. An adult should be responsible to study his lessons daily.
To sum it up, if you want to excel in college, you need to have the right attitude, and the correct frame of mind.
How to Remove AKM Antivirus 2010 Pro - Get Rid of This Fake Spyware Quickly
AKM Antivirus 2010 Pro is a virus that is causing mass mayhem around the internet by infecting thousands of PCs every day. Unfortunate victims may not realize that this spyware is the same as the recent Your PC Protector spyware, which also drove thousands of PC users to the brink with scare tactics and high pressure scams. AKM is no different, it attacks a user with never-ending pop-ups and fake scans, overloading a user's PC, and opening it up to more viruses and hackers. Whatever you do, don't register this product. It's nothing but a waste of your money.
The most common methods of infection with a virus such as this one is via downloading video codecs to watch online videos, P2P downloads, and surfing questionable websites, including hacked MySpace or Facebook profile links. The internet can be loaded with landmines, so to speak, which is why have antivirus software protecting you along the way is so important, and something that I stress to my friends and colleagues.
So How do we Remove AKM Antivirus 2010 Pro?
If you are a PC Technician then you may be comfortable removing a virus like this one manually. A manual removal involves finding the infected DLL and LNK files in your HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and HKEY_CURRENT_USER folders, getting rid of these files, then following up by deleting the infected system files, and blocking the related processes and websites. A full rundown can be found online for exact file names, but I only recommend this process to those of you who consider yourselves PC experts, as one wrong move in your system's registry can result in PC failure.
The easier and automatic way...
The easiest way to scan your system and find whatever is hiding, is automatic removal. I use automatic removal tools not only because they are faster and more reliable, but also because they protect against future viruses. Even if you're a great PC technician, you are still left unguarded if you don't have an active scanner. These tools are reasonably priced and effective, which end up saving a lot more money than you'd have to spend if a hacker got to your sensitive information.
Don't let hackers inconvenience your safety and security. Remove AKM Antivirus Pro 2010 as soon as you can, and start now with a free pc scan of your system.
Football Strength and Conditioning - Its Unique Demands
A football strength and conditioning programme is always going to be demanding at any level - but all players can benefit from how it is tailored to get the maximum performance in their sport by understanding some basic ideas.
When you look at any football strength and conditioning regime, there is one thing that you can spot above all others. It is not really about building up endurance for long, long stretches. Football demands explosive power in short bursts, be it for running backs or defensive linemen.
This means an off-season of hours on the running machine might keep you fit in one sense, but it won't really work for getting you in the best shape to play the game. A good football strength and conditioning style workout is not your classical bulky "bodybuilding" approach.
Though linemen will work with weights, they will not do so many repetitions and concentrate on lifting as sharply as possible to build up muscle fibre and increase strength for that "explosive" quick out of the blocks feel at the start of a down. For those looking for speed as their key it's the acceleration that matters to get half a yard ahead of your opponents - unless you keep running in 94 yard punt returns you won't be at full pelt most of the time.
So again, look for exercises that build up that sudden, explosive power and strong muscle fibres to get off you the mark that half a second or so ahead of your rivals.
Football strength and conditioning does vary from position to position - but it is that explosive initial burst that is a common theme.
How to Make Windows XP Run Faster Now - Tutorial to Instantly Boost XP Computer Speed
With Windows XP being one of the most popular Operating Systems in the World still, it's important that you are able to keep it running as quickly and smoothly as possible. And fortunately, there's actually a way that you can speed up this system instantly. You just need to be able to tweak a part of the system that hardly anyone knows about.
Although XP is a very stable and reliable system, it still suffers from a lot of problems that are mainly caused by a part of the system called the 'registry'. This is a part of XP that stores the latest settings for your system, allowing it to remember everything from your default web browser to your login details. However, it's also one of the biggest causes of problems for XP, including the problem of a slow system!
Unfortunately, the registry is the Achilles Heal of XP, as its the one part of the system that lets your computer down time and time again. And the problem is that since the registry is being used so much, it's constantly making your system confused, leading it to save many parts of it in the wrong way. This causes the registry to become full of junk and erroneous files, making your system unable to read the settings it needs in the time you want. This is what causes most computers to run slow, and is luckily very easy to cure.
The problem of a slow system is best related to the "yellow pages". If you imagine the registry of XP as a telephone directory, which stores all sorts of listings and settings about your PC, and every time your computer gets confused, it ends up saving parts of this directory in the wrong way, making it all mixed up. This makes Windows unable to find the files it needs whenever it needs them, leading your system to run slower and with a lot more issues. To fix this, you just need to get the registry working in the correct order again, and that's done by using a tool called a "registry cleaner".
Registry cleaners scan through the entire registry database, and sort the files into the right order again. If you want to use one of these tools to speed your system up, you just need to download one from the Internet, install it and let it scan your system. This will make it correct all the issues that are slowing XP down and will make your PC run like new again (because new PCs don't have any registry problems to slow them down).
Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 with Business Contact Manager
Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 with Business Contact Manager Review
The installation went flawlessly. I opted not to install Business Contact Manager.
The Outlook itself is quite complex and useful for managing your workflow in a busy environment. If you need a tool to just manage your personal email, there are, probably, less heavy tools.
In 2007 edition Microsoft added a ribbon on the title bar of the message viewer. This ribbon is a customizable bar with buttons. One change that I didn't like comparing to 2003 edition is that in order to edit a saved message instead of simply selecting "Edit" in a drop-down menu, one has to either find "Revise Contents" or add it as a button to the ribbon. The whole indivudla message window interface is brought in line with all Microsoft Office 2007 look, but the Outlook's main window still looks like 2003 with some changes in the menus.
I don't like the changes to the Search functions interface. Now to search a folder for a message with a keyword you have to navigate to Tools>Instant Search>Advanced Find -- right-clicking on a folder in the Mail Folders' pane won't is not possible any more since there is no option for searching in the Folder rclick pop-up menu.
One can go to Tools>Instant Search>Search Options and set "All Folders" in the "Instant Search Pane" area and hope that every time you start a search it would go through all folders. Nope! If you don't check "Search Subfolders" after pressing "Browse..." button in the Advanced Find, the search will NOT go into the subfolders. This means that either this feature doesn't work or the interface is confusing...
I definitely don't like the hard-shell plastic packaging: it take a lot of space, hard to see where it's sealed, and opening it was a challenge.

Using Excel Data in PowerPoint
OLE stands for Object Linking and Embedding. It enables you to copy existing Excel data such as a table or a chart into a presentation. You then have the option to either embed the data, or create a link to it.
Embedding the Excel data will allow you to make changes to the data using Excel functionality from with PowerPoint. However it remains independent from the spreadsheet. Creating a link to the Excel data will mean that whenever the spreadsheet data is changed, the PowerPoint presentation is automatically updated.
Open the spreadsheet containing the data
Select the range of cells or chart you want to copy
Click Edit > Copy or press Ctrl + C to copy the data
Switch to the PowerPoint presentation and select the slide you want to import the data to
Click Edit > Paste Special
The Paste Special dialogue box appears. Select Microsoft Office Excel Worksheet Object or Microsoft Office Excel Chart Object from the list of formats
Click the Paste option to embed the object, or click the Paste Link option to create a link to the spreadsheet
Optionally check the Display as icon box to display the Excel icon instead of the data. This is useful if the data you are importing is large and does not fit on your slide. The data can be viewed by double clicking the icon
Click Ok
The data appears on the slide as an object. It can be moved and resized to fit in with any other content you may have on the slide.
Advantages of Using VBA in Excel 2007
VBA, or Visual Basic for Applications, is the simple programming language that can be used within Excel 2007 (and earlier versions, though there are a few changes that have been implemented with the Office 2007 release) to develop macros and complex programs. The advantages of which are:
- The ability to do what you normally do in Excel, but a thousand times faster
- The ease with which you can work with enormous sets of data
- To develop analysis and reporting programs downstream from large central databases such as Sybase, SQL Server, and accounting, financial and production programs such as Oracle, SAP, and others.
Macros save keystrokes by automating frequently used sequences of commands, and developers use macros to integrate Office with enterprise applications - for example, to extract customer data automatically from Outlook e-mails or to look up related information in CRM systems or to generate Excel spreadsheets from data extracted from enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems.
To create an Excel spreadsheet with functionality beyond the standard defaults, you write code. Microsoft Visual Basic is a programming environment that uses a computer language to do just that. Although VBA is a language of its own, it is in reality derived from the big Visual Basic computer language developed by Microsoft, which is now the core macro language for all Microsoft applications.
To take advantage of the functionality of the Microsoft Visual Basic environment, there are many suggestions you can use or should follow. Below we will take a look at a few hints and tips for VBA security and protection in Excel, a more in-depth understanding of which can be gained by attending a VBA Excel 2007 course, delivered by a Microsoft certified trainer.
Password protecting the code
As a VBA Excel user you may want to protect your code so that nobody may modify it and to protect against the loss of intellectual property if people access source code without permission. This is easily achieved in the VBE editor by going to "Tools/VBAProject Properties/Protection". Check the box and enter a password.
Hiding worksheets
In any or all of your Excel workbooks you might want to hide a worksheet that contains sensitive or confidential information from the view of other users of the workbook. If you just hide the worksheet in the standard way the next user will be able to simply un-hide it, but by using a VBA method to hide and password protect a worksheet, without protecting the entire workbook, you will be able to allow other users access without affecting the confidentiality of the data.
Protecting workbooks
There are different levels of protection for workbooks, from not allowing anyone access to the workbook to not allowing any changes to be made to it, i.e. setting the security to 'read only' so that no changes can be made to the templates you have created.
Is Your Computer Too Slow? This is How to Get Your Speedy PC Back Fast
Every computer needs to have its windows registry updated and cleaned from time to time. If people neglect to ensure that their computer is maintained properly and free of unnecessary files and malicious software then they are at risk of computer crashes, break-downs, errors and even a complete failure of windows.
The reason behind this begins in your computer registry.
Your computers registry system is there so windows knows how to run programs and hardware and store all the system settings. Once errors start to appear the affect on windows is dramatic and it will start to report error after error and slow right down.
Before thinking about fixing any registry errors there are a few other steps to take to make your computer run as fast and as error free as possible.
#1 Run a virus scan. If there is any malicious software on your computer it will embed entries in your windows registry. It is no good repairing the registry and removing these entries if they going to reappear again.
#2 Remove any programs you do not want or hardly use. This will enable you to remove the registry entries for these programs and speed up your PC further.
#3 Run a free registry scan. A brand new computer has a compact and error free registry. However after frequent usage errors may crop up and make it difficult for the registry to do its work. This is the reason why your computer may experience a lot of problems and errors. It is therefore vital to keep your computers registry clean and well-maintained.
It is important to run the registry scan last as this will find any errors and enable you to find and remove any registry entries for malicious programs and programs you have removed. Once you have done this it will also find all the other minor errors and problems that are slowing your computer down.
After you have run the free scan and have fixed and repaired all the errors with a registry cleaner you will find that your computer stops reporting annoying errors and runs as fast as when it was new.
