Everyone has to pass along information. Whether it's in a presentation, conversation or other venue. All of these forms of communication have one thing in common... they could use some design. This talk (that I hopefully will get to present one day) seeks to demonstrate the elements of design and their applicability to forms of communication.

Presentation for my case, State v. Daniels.
Yes, I know boring opening slide, but I have to be something that these people call a "Prow-fesh-ee-nail" ... I don't quite get it either. (=D)
The gun in slide 4 IS NOT mine. I had significantly modified it, but I can't find the link I had bookmarked for it.
The man on slide 3 comes from thenounproject.com

Sorry that the videos aren't "in" this one, but the links are where they should be.
Also, another apology for the non-catchy title slide... I'm usually ok at these, but wasn't feeling anything for this one.
Can't upgrade to pro, since I'm still in school and money's tight.
Set of rules generally regarded and accepted as binding in relations between states and between nations. International Law serves as a framework for the practice of stable and organized international relations. International law differs from state-based legal systems. International law is primarily applicable to countries than to private citizens.

23 Tips From Comedians to Be Funnier in Your Next Presentation (via the book ...David Nihill
As they clock up the 10,000 hours that Malcolm Gladwell says make a master, comedians learn a lot the hard way. Here are their top tips so you don't have to.
1. Use the Rule of 3
2. Draw Upon Your Real-Life Experiences
3. Identify the Key Part and Get There Fast
4. Find the Funny in Pain Points
5. Think Fails and Firsts
6. Listen and repeat.
7. Think Fun Over Funny
8. Screen Your Jokes
9. Tell a Joke
10. Like Jerry Seinfeld Does, Use Inherently Funny Words
11. Paint a Picture for Others to See
12. Do Something Memorable
13. Jokes are: 1, 2 … 4!
14. Use the Art of Misdirection
15. Put the Word the Joke Hinges on at the End of the Sentence
16. Use Tension
17. Avoid Ever Going Blank Onstage
18. Use Your Hands
19. Use Metaphors and Analogies Combined With Hyperbole (Exaggeration)
20. If the Energy Is Down, Bring It Up
21. Trust Your Funny Bits
22. Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance
And last but not least, from Irish comedian Dylan Moran:
23. Don’t Rely on Potential
“Don’t do it! Stay away from your potential,” Moran says. “You’ll mess it up. It’s potential; leave it. Anyway, it’s like your bank balance–you always have a lot less than you think.”
As Mark Twain said, “The human race has only one really effective weapon and that is laughter.” That type of arms race may be one worth all our time. Most presentations are really boring. With applications of these tips, yours will not be.
These tips are taken from the bestselling book Do You Talk Funny and Hacking Public Speaking. http://hackingpublicspeaking.com/

The study of rumour’s conception and mongering in organisation is indeed a unique field of study. Through the lenses of society, rumour mongering normally could be considered as something petty and nonsensical even though the effects of these activities does involve the members of the organisation without considering their organisational statuses. Whether one either admit or denies their involvement in rumour conception and mongering, every individual should have gone through the experience whether they like it or not. In addition, this activity also could create such organisational culture as explained by West & Turner (2010, p. 277) “people are like spiders who are suspended in webs that they created at work. An organization’s culture is composed of shared symbols, each of which has a unique meaning. Organizational stories, rituals, and rites of passage are examples of culture of an organization”.
My goal is to help people grow their capabilities & help in strengthening your brand.
