Well, worry no more, because this slice provides you with some action-packed ideas from the other side of the globe. Next time you’re feeling bored, just get your friends, set up your rollerskates, hitch a ride and get crankin’ big time out on the roads. Here, like this:

Disclaimer: I will not be held responsible for dumb people who can’t resist the urge of mauling themselves by attempting trendy Saudi lifestyle statements and end up getting hurt, like for real. Not because I’m a bad person, but simply because I’m not completely dumb – so here’s at ya.

Evaluating eZediaMX: advanced multimedia presentation software


In the fast-paced modern days we live by, there’s an increasing demand for high-quality multimedia presentations, both in academic and Professional scenarios. While Microsoft PowerPoint has long been established as the standard tool to create such presentations, it’s not a tool without limitations, and this is probably the reason why there’s also a demand for high-quality presentation software, such as eZediaMX. This software is publicized as “easy-to-use multimedia authoring and editing software (…)- From beginners to experts, it has never been easier to produce professional multimedia projects with no programming required!” This cross-platform software (available for Windows and Mac) provides a great solution for everyone who wants to create modern looking presentations that would not be possible in PowerPoint.

 

eZedia multimedia presentation tool

 

 

After taking the tutorial and experimenting a little with this software, it’s safe to assume that it does constitute a good alternative for PowerPoint. There are two good reasons why this is so; first, it allows easily creating the same kind of presentations as PowerPoint does; second, it allows the creation of more advanced presentations with just a little practice. This software adopts a system of frames (as opposed to slides) which allow creating elaborate transitions and chain reactions; in a way, it could be argued that eZedia MX is a cross between Microsoft PowerPoint with Macromedia Flash – a middle ground between ease of use and sheer creative potential and power. There are some impressive demonstrations available in a training videos section within the official website; while some of these demonstrations look somewhat puzzling, it actually becomes second nature, after using the software for a while. Doubtless, one is able to access a creative edge by using this powerful, affordable and relatively simple multimedia presentation tool.

Serenity Prayer


The following prayer is widely known throughout the world, as result of being adopted by the Alcoholics Anonyms. While I’m neither an Alcoholic nor an Anomym, I still can relate very closely to the Ideals ascribed within this inspired address. It was originally created by a theologian called R. Niebuhr in the 1930’s, and was later adapted by many others. This slice of life will provide you with an extended version of this inspired text, much to your reflection and enjoyment. While I’m not a catholic – or a religious person by that matter – I find great value in these words, and hopefully so will you.

God, give us grace to accept with serenity
the things that cannot be changed,
Courage to change the things
which should be changed,
and the Wisdom to distinguish
the one from the other.
Living one day at a time,
Enjoying one moment at a time,
Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace,
Taking, as Jesus did,
This sinful world as it is,
Not as I would have it,
Trusting that You will make all things right,
If I surrender to Your will,
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life,
And supremely happy with You forever in the next.
