Church PowerPoint Resources (part 2)

admin — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 19:20:30 +0000

Presentation consultant Alexei Kapterev put together a must-see slideshow on creating great presentations. Hit the next button above to flip through it and see how to stop killing your audience with boring PowerPoint presentations (no audio, the slides speak for themselves). This one’s essential (and entertaining) viewing for students and professionals alike. See also how to rock your presentation with the right tools and apps.

It’s also a great way to learn to use PowerPoint’s graphic features; because a lot of your rapid elearning success depends on how well you can get around PowerPoint. These types of exercises will only enhance your skills as a rapid elearning author.

The other day I ran across this site, Things That Are Brown, by Matt Brown, a Seattle-based web designer. I like the colors he uses and the general layout. So I played around with some ideas on how this could work in an elearning course.

The Original Site

Here is an image of Matt’s site. I like the clean lines and earthiness. It’s so brown. Being from the northwest, I’m kind of fond of brown. Reminds me of good coffee, chocolate brownies, and the heavy, hand-knit wool sweaters I have to wear while strolling the beaches in the summer.

By using the darker color scheme in the template, any color or contrast on the site really pops and draws your attention. That’s something to keep in mind when you consider the visual design of your own courses. Remember, part of your visual design is how to direct the learner’s eye.

Calcium is well-known for its role in building strong bones and teeth, but this essential mineral has many other vital functions, including regulating the transmission of nerve impulses throughout the body and the passage of nutrients into and wastes out of cells. Magnesium, too, has numerous metabolic functions in the body. More than 300 different enzymes depend on magnesium, including ones that help convert dietary sugars and fats into energy. Magnesium is needed to synthesize DNA, RNA, and the brain proteins that store and retrieve memories. What’s more, your body uses magnesium to make sure calcium gets into your bones, not your soft tissues.

So many health nutritional supplements, so little time

dthoma — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 23:22:02 +0000

There are so many health nutritional supplements on the market these days. They come in all shapes and sizes. Just like what the name implies, it gives the body what it needs and it complements the nutrients that is already inside the body. It fills the nutritional gaps left by the daily food intake. By making the vitamins and minerals complete inside the body, the body is stronger and it is resistant to diseases. That is why whenever the seasons change, we tend to drink one to two Vitamin C tablets because we know that it is going to protect us from the flu that is so popular during those times.

Some of my research sites

dthoma — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 23:19:57 +0000

Circumstances

Because of the methods applied nowadays in agriculture, which destroy the natural mineral substances, we cannot be sure that the agricultural products ensure us the necessary vitamins and minerals. Although all people should try to have healthy and balanced diet, few in reality do.

Nutritional Supplements to bridge your nutrition gaps

More and more people try the nutritional supplements as a way to combat the nutritional deficiencies and to ensure the necessary of vital nutrients for maintaining the quality of their life. Before you start taking nutritional supplements you must know a few things about them.

Nutritional supplements represent a support to our body. The nutritional supplements clean the human body and restore the deficiencies present inside. While taken constantly, nutritional supplements promote good health and help prevent disease. Nutritional supplements represent a good thing that we need . Here are a few things that you might consider before taking nutritional supplements:

Can health nutritional supplements make you healthier?

dthoma — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 23:17:58 +0000

Aside from education, being healthy is one thing that you can give yourself. Nobody is going to give that to you except yourself. Although there are several things that can affect your health such as pollution, stress and improper nutrition or unhealthy diet. All these will greatly affect the health.

The truth is the processed food that we eat contain toxins that are about four to five kilos per year. That is how much we consume dangerous substances per year. These toxins have been found out to be the cause for the movement of free radicals. We all know how dangerous free radicals are due to the onset of cancer.

That is why we need to get rid of these toxins inside our bodies. There are two ways to do so. One, through detoxification. We need to detoxify to get rid of the toxins inside the body. Second, consumption of health nutritional supplements because of the poor nutrition that we have. It is a must to take them daily. This will strengthen the immune system and will prevent diseases from taking over our bodies.

Actually, if you have any of these symptoms, it is recommended that you take health nutritional supplements: depression, insomnia, frequent migraines, mood swings, anxiety attacks, bruises, bleeding gums, slow wound healing and others. The truth is all of these are traced back to poor diet and lack in particular vitamins and minerals.

Health nutritional supplements will be able to fill in on these gaps. It is one of the easiest ways by which one can fight the lack in nutrition of our bodies. It cleanses the body and heals the deficiencies that are inside. Remember anybody can take nutritional supplements. But it is especially recommended for people that have nutritional deficiencies. That is why you must find out if you have any health deficiencies. Check with your doctor regarding nutritional supplements and ask what are the appropriate vitamins that you should take.

Here are some of my research sites I used:

Are health nutritional supplements all they are cracked up to be?

dthoma — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 23:13:58 +0000

Regarding their quality, the nutritional supplements must be natural, easy to assimilate, must have a high nutritional value, must come from ecologically non-polluted areas and must be certified.

On the market are thousands of dietary supplements. Great companies fight for a place on the market. Each of them offers a diversity of products. These products seem to bring the same benefits to our body but they are in fact very different one from another. The difference is obvious when you read the label and you see the ingredients. The ingredients are the ones which make the products so valuable.

Research

The nutritional supplements are usually obtained after a period of research.

Nutritional Supplement Vitamins. Are they worth it?

dthoma — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 18:42:05 +0000

Being healthy basically means keeping the body functioning normally, the way that it is supposed to do. We can achieve this by providing the right nutrition to our body. We must understand that nutrition has a very important role in keeping the body healthy, therefore, we should be aware of our body’s nutritional requirements, and make sure that these requirements are met. How can we meet this need? Ideally, the food we eat should provide us with the necessary vitamins, minerals and all the other nutrients that our body needs, but then due to some factors, this is not just the case.

Nowadays, due to modern processing, new technologies and latest farming methods, the food that we eat, which should be rich with nutrients, are no longer that nutritious. Additionally, our food preparation and cooking is another factor of nutrients depletion on food. These are just a few of the known factors of food being depleted of the nutrients that it is supposed to contain.
