This document provides tips for creating effective PowerPoint presentations for criminal justice professionals. It recommends focusing PowerPoint slides on a few words in large typeface and eye-catching images rather than blocks of text. Proper planning is important, including defining the purpose, knowing the audience, and creating an outline. Presentations should emphasize visuals over lengthy notes, and provide a printed handout for participants. Copyright laws must also be respected when selecting images.

Statutes acquire their force from
the time of their passage, however
unless otherwise provided. Statutes
are of several kinds; namely, Public
or private. Declaratory or
remedial. Temporary or perpetual.
A temporary statute is one which is
limited in its duration at the time
of its enactment. It continues in
force until the time of its
limitation has expired, unless
sooner repealed. A perpetual
statute is one for the continuance
of which there is no limited time,
although it may not be expressly
declared to be so. If, however, a
statute which did not itself contain
any limitation is to be governed by
another which is temporary only,
the former will also be temporary
and dependent upon the existence
of the latter.
