This document provides tips for using PowerPoint effectively when presenting. It recommends keeping fonts large enough for all to read, using high contrast colors, and maintaining consistency across slides. Presenters should keep slides simple with minimal text and avoid distractions. They should tailor the presentation for the audience, know the information thoroughly rather than just reading slides, and practice their delivery. PowerPoint can be a useful tool for teachers and students to create and share presentations.
The document is a slideshow rebuttal by Cousin Russ to Cousin John's claims of athletic accomplishments. Russ shares photos of the extended family demonstrating various athletic talents like football, gymnastics, cycling, driving, bowling, and baseball. However, the photos of Cousin John show him socializing or in leisure activities rather than sports. Russ concludes there is no evidence of John's alleged athletic ability over the past 44 years.
This document presents the school improvement plan for Fairfield Middle School aimed at improving math and reading performance. It analyzes student performance data from 2004-2007 which showed consistently low pass rates, especially for grades 6-7. The plan includes establishing daily math sessions, a math club, reading tutoring programs, and Saturday academies. It outlines engaging teachers through workshops and rewards, and gaining community support through PTA and church involvement. Progress will be evaluated regularly through tests and annual SOL assessment analysis.

9th Inter-Parliamentary Meeting on Renewable Energy and Energy EfficiencyAlliance To Save Energy
The document summarizes a presentation by Kateri Callahan, President of the Alliance to Save Energy, on energy efficiency policy under the Obama Administration. Key points include:
- The Obama Administration has been a "game changer" for energy efficiency policy, allocating $65 billion for efficiency in the stimulus package and establishing new efficiency standards and programs.
- Major legislation like the stimulus package and proposed climate bills allocate significant funding for energy efficiency initiatives and are expected to create hundreds of thousands of new green jobs.
- International agreements on issues like clean energy research and codes and standards harmonization are helping set a framework for global cooperation on efficiency.
- Looking ahead, continued federal support for efficiency combined with
This document outlines a lesson plan for a 2nd grade class to learn about the solar system through physical activities representing different celestial bodies. The students form the shapes of Earth, the full and crescent moon, stars, and meteoroids with their bodies. They enjoy representing and moving to depict various objects from the solar system.

On the Road toHigh Performance, Net-Zero Energy Buildings:Policy Outlook an...Alliance To Save Energy
At this conference the Alliance supported the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), a principal sponsor of IGEBC2009, to organize its booth at the U.S. Pavilion of the Expo. Castelli's presentation during the U.S. Technology Seminar - an event jointly organized by DOE and the U.S. Foreign Commercial Service in Beijing - focused on the policies and practical steps that are needed to achieve net zero energy building goals in the U.S. Nils Peterman presented on the National Fenestration Ratings Council's Windows Collaborative Program in China, which focuses on adopting labeling standards for windows. In addition, Brian Castelli participated in the meeting with Vice Minister of Housing, Urban, and Rural Development Qui Baoxing, who stressed the need to accelerate the collaboration with the U.S. in energy efficency issues related to construction and water sectors.
Customers literally choose from thousands of options – and most of them have very little to do with functionality. However, that doesn’t make these decisions unimportant by any means. The selection of a watch, a bracelet, a pair of glasses or many other items reflects deep-seated values and beliefs about appearance and the consumer’s identity. We can think of the body as a canvas, where the shopper chooses from a “palette” of accessory items, apparel, footwear, cosmetics and other products to paint a picture s/he wants the world to see at a fixed moment in time. Fashion marketers need to dig deeper if they want to sync their offerings with what their customers seek.
In this presentation, we’ll look at some of the powerful cultural forces that drive fashion statements. Then we’ll focus on the individual consumer and her motivations to accessorize. We’ll examine some of the important factors that influence what that “self-portrait” looks like, including feelings about the body, peer pressure, celebrity endorsements and the messages our culture sends about what men and women need to look like. We’ll also consider how new technologies such as social media communities, wearable computing and augmented reality will color this picture in the near future.
