How to Publish Microsoft Docs. into PDF

To start with, let me quickly explain what PDF is in my tiny little language anyone can easily understand. PDF is an application format used, whereby document converted into its form are easy to access. What am I trying to say? I’m not only trying to say it, but I am factually saying that when Microsoft docs. Are developed and converted into PDF format, they are easily accessed.

Why are they easily accessed? The Microsoft Company or body, as you may wish to call them, upgrade their Windows every time. In light of this, if a document was developed using a higher version of Windows, it is impossible to open the doc. with a lower Windows version.

So what is the solution? Very simple. Convert the document into PDF format. How? Whether the doc. is MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint or CorelDraw, it can be converted into PDF.

The first thing to be sure of is that you have downloaded the Acrobat reader into your computer system. This is to enable you carry out the conversion successfully.

For MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint docs., after developing and saving the doc., click on “File” on your document Menu, further click on “Export” and lastly click on “Create PDF/XPS”, and your PDF format is done. For CorelDraw doc., after developing and saving the document, click on “File”, “Publish to PDF” and that is it. You may wish to rename the document after the conversion. That is about the only thing that can be changed after the conversion.

These are about the major advantages of converting a document into the PDF format: It preserves layouts, formatting, fonts and images; content can’t be easily changed; free viewers are available on the web. For example, some people have a soft copy of their official signatures which they always paste at the end of their letters. When such document is converted into PDF, the signature cannot be copied.

Hope this works for you. Please follow and leave your comments.

Prayer, The Christian’s Tool

Don’t be baffled that I’m writing on prayer. Note that this blog is not stereo-typed. It decently cuts across every works of life.

Now, prayer. What is prayer or what can be termed as prayer?

But before answering that question, let’s find out who can pray. Anyone can pray. In fact, everyone prays; a student prays to pass his examinations; a couples prays to prosper in marriage; a soldier prays to conquer in battle; a thief prays not to be caught☹️; a lawyer prays to win a case; and so on. With these lights, it is simple to define what prayer is.

Prayer is a request or solicit made to obtain a thing. Very simple. That is why some people write letters of application or proposals and at the end of the letter they make a prayer of what they want to obtain. That is prayer. In prayers, you lobby to get what you want. Now, it depends on who you are praying to. Prayers can be made to a friend, a business partner, an organization, a law court, an earthly parent, the devil or God. Having explained this much, let’s get down to the title of this article.

When prayer is referred as a Christian’s tool, such prayers can only be made to God; only those who have faith in God can make an effective use; only the righteous can successfully use it; only those who are fully obedient to God’s word and commands can enjoy its dividend.

Revelations 5:8 explains that when the saints pray, the prayers go into the harps and golden vials of the four and twenty elders in heaven as odours. When these prayers are made with holy hands and hearts, be sure that they have entered into the harps and golden vials of the elders in heaven who in turn present them to God as odours to trigger answers to the saint.

Beloved, live a holy and righteous life; have total faith in God; obey His commands; and the prayer tool will work for you.

God bless you.

G Suite: Placing Adverts on your Blog

It’s very interesting to know that you can own a blog and earn money from it. But how? First thing is that you must be a writer. So many people want to just sit down to see money flowing into their account. This is possible, but for numerable people on earth. You can develop the zeal to write and become a blogger.

Secondly, create a blog site. There are a number of blog site creators you can use, but I’ll suggest you use Blogger (BlogSpot) by Google for a reason you will find out before the end of this blog.  Blog creation is just an aspect of this. After creating the blog, your writing begins.

Google AdSense will help you in placing adverts on your blog when you apply for that, but your site must have been running already for 6 months with adequate write-ups. So, the next thing you need is patience; 6 months isn’t 6 years. However, don’t forget to set your layout to include AdSense.

In time past, it was different, as Google AdSense would grant your advert placement request without your acquiring a domain for your blog site. Now you must register a domain for your blog site before getting to see adverts on your site. That is where the G Suite applies.

There are numerous companies you can buy a domain from, but since Google is hosting your blog, through its Google BlogSpot which I earlier mentioned, and placing the adverts for, why not? Buy the domain from them, i.e. from G Suite (GoDaddy), to make things easier for you. You’ll be given just two weeks, i.e. 14 days of trial and then you start paying for the domain use. So, what I’m I saying? Google hosts your blog for free and will pay you as long as their Google AdSense advert placed on your blog is clicked buy users who come to your site. Pay them back by buying a domain from them and receive concersion when one is offered.

GoDaddy now!

POS (Point of Sale): E-payment/Good business for the unemployed

The issue of unemployment has taken a high tone today especially in Nigeria where the government of the day is just focused on favoring themselves, while jailing and troubling those who did not favor them in the past. The fresh graduates will almost pray that the Youth Service program should never come to an end.  But someday it has to end. In the past, the government encouraged education to say it was a final bus stop for anyone who would make it. The story is different today as most people who have respected the call to go to school still come out of school to struggle spaces with those who could not afford going to school; some have become subjects to those who have never seen the four corners of a school; ERROR! Don’t get me wrong, education is sweet; without it, I won’t have the know-how of writing. Let’s tell ourselves the truth.

However, there are several kinds of job the unemployed can lay hands and with patience and integrity, he will make.

The POS (point of sale) as the name implies has gone beyond using it to transact buying and selling business. It is used to pay utility bills, make money transfer, and lots more.

POS Center

If you did not know, know it now.  Most of these e-payment operations have been extended beyond the banks to create employments. Using the POS outside the banking hall makes you by-pass the crowd inside the bank or at the ATM stand. Lucky enough if the proprietor of the POS stand is just on your street, then you have by-passed transporting yourself to the bank while wasting a lot of time. Just instead use that money for your fare to pay for the POS service. Shikenah! But your ATM card must be a MasterCard. (That was when the biz just began, now you can use whether MasterCard or VisaCard 😁)

On the part of the unemployed, don’t just look, wake up, find how you can get a POS machine, and then locate a strategic area where you know you can make sales (e.g. where there are no banks, no NEPA offices or any other utility office) to erect your kiosk. Some single transactions cost over N200 but the least transaction is N20. If you make fifty of such in a day, you don't need to worry yourself anymore 😆

Academic qualification? You don’t need, just know how to operate the POS machine, that is all about it.😜

Bet9ja: Facts and Myths

Far back when I was young, I used see people spend their monies on playing different kinds of games.; there was this type they played in 6 holes each (the Efiks call it “Nsa Isong”); it is called Nsa Isong because people who do not have the carved wood will simply dig holes in ground and gather twenty-four stones each to play the game. This is just one of the games.

Other kinds of games were cards and the bigger and very obvious game was the pool. It was the bigger game because there were offices (pool houses) where people went to play this game. The similar thing about these games was that money was at stake; the more money involved the more win was expected by the stalkers or players.

How about the category of people who played the games? Drunks, wife beaters, drug pushers/users, vagabonds and the likes; they were rated as the irresponsible ones in the society; they were usually masked or disguised as most of them preferred to visit the pool house at night.

As we speak today, these games have taken a higher dimension; the categories of people have changed and people no more need to play them at night; now na koro-koro. But why? The answer is simple; it shouldn’t bother anyone how the other person makes his money; e consine you? This is not caused by the change government, no. But e don tey from time imo river before change government. We find top shots across the globe betting with very fat sum of money, cars, landed properties, you name it. If they win, yes they do, otherwise they won’t keep doing it. Some play the games online so you won’t see them live.

Bet9ja office

 I’m writing on Bet9ja before I forget. lols… my laptop even recognizes Bet9ja whereas it won’t recognize so many people’s names except they are added to the computer’s dictionary. This shows that Bet9ja is recognized globally.

Like I always mention, my articles are live because I’m always at the event place to take stories. Twice I have had to be at the Bet9ja offices located in my resident area, as NEPA no go give person light, so I hopped in there to charge all the charge-ables. Hmm, so much influx of people coming in, buying tickets, going out, to return later to check their baits. You will hear the proprietors shout, “no be mouth o, nay a money go talk.” The funniest thing is that looking at this most of these stalkers or players, they look haggard and hungry and they will not play beyond hundred naira. Dem send you? The ones who play big time do come too I guess but I neva jam them yet.

So, people, on my second visit, but another of its office, I was forced to ask; “please what do people actually do here?” Then I got an answer, “ah, here? People predict football scores to win money.” So I concluded, “this is just the upgraded pool house.” So I went further, “have you ever won?” Then went the young man again, “ah me? You know say some of us want to win big so like me now, I no dey come here always, na like weekends.” Then I re-asked, “have you ever won?” there was no sure answer, issorite, so left him to himself.

To cut the story short, at the end of my short stay, this young man got shouting “oti wole, oti wole” i.e. it has entered. It was discovered that he had won 10k over a N100 bait. Oya o, payment time and the proprietor said, “Give me your account number, I will make a transfer to you.” Come see people as they shout, “haba, 10k only, una no fit pay cash?” issorite!

But on their banner, you will find "Bet9ja, prompt payment, no stories". To pay only 10k now, story, story. So what is the truth now? Abeg if you know, drop your comments.

The Magical Aloe Vera

Every leave and shrub are for purposes, especially as natural remedies to sicknesses and diseases. Many ailments are cured these days using natural remedies in the likes of leaves and roots. Please don’t quote me wrong that orthodox drug application are no more effective. But trust me, unnatural, diluted, treated, preservative drugs may cause extra problems in the body system either by wrong application or by wrong manufacturing.

Our fore-fathers had doctors who did not use orthodox drugs but leaves, shrubs and roots. I could also call them medical doctors because they prepared medicine to cure ailment of every kind. At those times, it was rarely heard that even very difficult ailment caused death. It was hardly heard that even pregnant women gave birth through caesarian surgery. So, don’t under-estimate the power of leaves, shrubs and roots.

However, I’m talking about the Aloe Vera gel.

The magical Aloe Vera

What I’m about to write is my personal experience; all my articles are my personal experiences.

Using the Aloe Vera gel for different purposes have proved successful. I’ll mention the few instances and the results.

Using the Aloe Vera gel as an anti-toxin is very effective. It leaves me with a free bowl, clearing every blockade, including constipation, bone and flesh inflammations. This means that there’s a process of a bit of frequent stooling, which may only be for that day, except if the gel is taken continuously. The gel is taken orally when using it for this purpose. Please do not take this if you are pregnant.

I’ve also used it to deal with skin patches caused by wrong orthodox cream application and for hair growth. It has been very wonderful. Making an oil with aloe vera, using natural coconut oil does these whole margic. Before I forget, it also works as a deodorant, leaving my arm pits dry. I use it externally, as a body oil in this case. It works like magic. It is not used on infants.

You can comment or ask questions if you are not clear about its usage.

The gel has other unbelievable great uses which I’ve read about, but since I’ve not applied it, I need not mention them. Feel free to exploit this magical gel.

Good luck friends.

FROM GRASS to GRACE

It is easy to describe grass but will take the power of the divine to describe grace because grace comes from above.

The President of Christ the Living Miracles Apostolic World Outreach Ministries (CLiMAWOM) Inc., Prophet Oluwasegun Wonder, a.k.a. Baba-Alasepe, while leading the church in a week long vigil to usher the people through the second quarter of the year, explained the process of moving from grass to grace.

Prophet Oluwasegun Wonder
a.k.a. Baba-Alasepe

Grasses are treaded upon; no matter how aged the grass is, it can never become a tree; its root is on earth; it can dry up and its growth permanently terminated. Some person’s destinies are on the grass level which always makes them experience setback and downfall at the edge of breakthrough.

On the other hand, grace cannot be trampled upon as its root is in God; it can never dry up nor be terminated. A man of grace, notwithstanding how great he is, will always experience striving because Satan does not want him to rise; his enemies are afraid of him. He needs the Christian’s weapon of warfare which not carnal. 2 Corinthians 10:4.

Trust in Jesus; Jesus is the defense house for a man of grace; the house of defense carries the weapon of warfare; anyone in Him is permanently protected from all forms of destruction; Jesus is the home of grace. Psalm 31. No wickedness can access the home of grace.

Grace is an unseen force that moves a man to a level of greater dominion. Grace is a super-dynamic compass which is impossible to designate.

Only the upright man can enjoy grace. Psalm 84:11.

Tell people about Jesus to enjoy grace. Psalm 40:10-11.

Grace breaks every form of protocol. (Mary, mother of Jesus got pregnant without sex).

A man of grace is a judge of the earth. Psalm 72.

A man of grace is a man of the spirit. No mere man can condemn him. Romans 8; he is not carnally minded; he obeys God to the letter; he is a man of faith.

A man of grace can put on a filthy garment. Zechariah 3:1-10, but God will always intervene to change the filthy garment to a glorious one. God has kept His prophet to command the change of raiment; a man of grace, apart from believing in God, must also believe in His prophets. 2 Chronicle 20:20. Grace destroys every evil tag in a man’s life in one day.

The grace and perfection of God provokes increase and multiplication. John 6.

The level of grass cripples a man but grace makes a man leap for celebration, Act 3:1-8; it makes a man do the impossible; it announces and makes a man famous.

Chose grace!

God bless you!

DIFFERENTIATING SESSIONS IN A CONFERENCE

Today, there are different kinds of meetings taking place all over the world. The name given to the meeting depends on the purpose of the meeting. Some call their meeting symposium, seminar, workshop, while some will say they are holding a summit or a conference. Like I mentioned earlier, the name depends on the purpose at which the meeting is organized.

Some meetings look very similar in their style and content. The style and content mostly depends on the organizers.

Let’s visualize how a good conference should be, i.e. talking about its different sessions.

There are basically three kinds of sessions in a good conference. These are the plenary, round table and special sessions.

1. Plenary session: this session is the first session that takes place daily before any other session. This is because it has to do with the introduction of the theme of the day. It gives a clue of what is expected to be the outcome of every discussion in all other sessions. The speakers are experts and authorities in the subject. The theme of the day is generated from the sub-themes of the overall theme of the conference. The plenary session may be sponsored or otherwise. It all depends on the strength of the organizers.
2. Round Table session: this session is mostly sponsored by donor agencies or partners. The speakers are also generated by the sponsors. Discussions in this session is bordered on the successes of the sponsoring organization toward the subject for discussion of the day. The sponsors might decide that the session should be attended based on invitation, so, based on that, the attendant is controlled, having few people. This session can run parallel with other sessions. The round table session is mostly used when organizing a summit since it has to do with success sharing of sponsoring organizations.
3. Special session: this session is generated from Abstract papers submitted either by organizations or individuals who have worked or are working in the field of the sub-theme of the day. This session can also be sponsored by interested organizations or partners, but its attendance is not restricted to invitations. The Abstract paper presentation are categorized into two classes. One is oral presentation while the other is poster presentation. The former class only is accepted to make presentation during the special session.

The poster presentations are made using the creation of posters, which are built using a given dimension by the conference organizers, to explain what the presentation is all about. Participants walk round the poster stands while the presenters are available to explain the presentations.

 

I wish every conference organizer success. (e no easy…)
