How to Sketch using Alphabets and Numbers?

I was pleasantly surprised to see these sketches from my twelve year old niece. Do you want to guess who these famous personalities are? I bet all Indians can guess all of these. I was intrigued when my niece told me this is very simple. She added to say she had used Numbers and Alphabets technique to draw all of these. I didn't know what this technique was. See this video to find out. It is indeed going to make your sketching easy as A, B, C. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ti17WuekPLY Until next time, this is Mohit signing off.

To use presenter view with Zoom, it’s easy with two monitors. All you need to do is share the screen with the slide on it.

How To Take Notes The Best Way?

Most of our school and college life, we are expected to take notes. However, it is a skill that is hardly ever taught in school of even college. As a student, I was also left to decide myself how to take notes. All my friends had their own style: Miserly Jenny for example would start from top left margin and keep writing in smallest possible font he could write with. He would typically use a pencil, which I thought was so that he could re-use the register once it finishes the next year (or few years down as the small font size meant that his register would definitely not

This is an every year affair and Toastmasters know they have to keep coming back to it. It's best therefore to make a note it here especially if you're an Area Director or Club President. For assigning the club proxy, the following flyer explains the steps very well. It's either for the club President or Secretary to login and start from Step 1 in the image. Idea in normal situations is to give the District Director the authority to act as proxy unless in the rare circumstance that you are attending the meeting and know of the candidates for voting.

How to Use Your iPhone as a Windows Mouse

With the entire working from home suddenly becoming a grand reality (thanks to the Novel Coronavirus!), our not so ready home is bearing the brunt of having to offer a comfortable seating comparable to the state of the art offices. It's failing big time. But is there is one thing, I have learnt it that placing a laptop at a distance and in a position such that the top of the laptop screen is almost horizontal to the eye works well.
