Facing The Giants (A GREAT movie!)

I fancy myself a movie connoisseur and I have a recommendation for a movie that I anticipate will be one of the best (if not the ‘run-a-way’ best) movies of the year. This movie was produced by a church. That is right…not in Hollywood, but at a church. Below is a link to the webpage where you can view the trailer.

If you have not paid the crazy theater price to see a movie in sometime or if you, like myself, enjoy a movie whenever you get the chance…you will want to not only view but also support the work of this movie.

I hope you will find the time on opening weekend to see this great film.

ps. All actors in this film are volunteers. I have been told that no one was paid for their services.

PowerPoint®

I am working on a PowerPoint® presentation and I need some help. I have a graphic that I have inserted into my presentation. The 'background' in my picture is white. Does anyone know how to make the white background transparent without making the contents of the picture transparent? My presentation color scheme does not include white and I think it looks kind of silly when I have a nice presentation and then all of a sudden I have a picture that is obviously imported.

Thanks for your help,
Hopper

Wardrobe Malfunction

Today, I found myself in a situation in which I needed to zip up my pants so I decided to do just that. Then at mid-zip it happened…the zipper broke. It did not get stuck; it broke off! When I first held the zipper fragment in my hand the worst case scenario zoomed through my mind. I would no longer be able to zip up my pants, they were only half closed, and I was not finished for the day; not yet bound for home. (I wear my shirt tucked in.)

Right about the time zipper-terror was traipsing through my brain I realized that only the dangly, hangy-down part of the zipper had broken off. Fortunately this wardrobe malfunction is recoverable.

I hope nothing else falls off before I get home tonight!
