 Below is a sample of  what you will you will read at

 Mittalpatel’s blogsite.

     Open .docx file without installing Office 2007

   Today, I received a mail regarding requirements specifications of website. The mail had an attachment of file containing all the details. To my misfortune, the file was in .DOCX format and I had no Office 2007 in my laptop. I tried to open it using Office 2003 but failed. Not only I tried to mail it to my gmail so that I can view it online but Google didn’t fulfill my wish as it isn’t supporting .DOCX files yet. It was quite important for me to read the file and reply back soon so I had no other option than to search for the solution on net.

Well, I didn’t need to spend much time, I found out soon that we can open the .docx, .xlsx or .pptx file without installing Office 2007 and believe me its very easy. To do so, you just need to download Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 2007 File Formats. Simply execute the exe file, install it and you will be able to open the .docx,.xlsx or .pptx file with your regular Office 2003. Once you open the file just save it as .doc, .xls or .ppt extension and it will be compatible to Office 2003.

Hhhmmm, I am done with converting the file and replying back the mail so thought to share with the poor guys who might end up with the same situation as I did.

I recently came across some information on communication that helped me to
understand why we tend not to hear people the first time.The author stated that
in order to have communication there must be a sender,and there must be a receiver.
However,many times we are busy sending when we should be receiving.That’s why
we don’t always understand them the first time.
The best way to correct the problem is to develop the skill of listening(receiving).
In order to do this,you need to focus on the speaker(sender).Pay close attention to
what they have to say.Try not to anticipate what they are going to say,just listen.
It’s a matter of developing new habits and letting go of old habits.You see,it’s the
habit of not listening that we have to change.
Once you’re able to make this adjustment;you’ll get lesser,” Can You Hear Me Now?”
complaints.

Everybody close their eyes for 2 minutes and think of a time when
you were having the most fun you’ve ever had in your life. Three times
a week(or more),you should do this.Do it for 21 straight days and see
how much better you will view your life.
Happiness is a choice! So choose to be happy.When you get up in
the morning,decide that no matter what;you are going to have a great
day! Have a Jollyjo time!

Which brings us to this strong-week’s featured blogsite;

JollyJo at : www.jollyjo.org

Here’s a sample of what you’ll find at www.jollyjo.org

The elusive second shot at life, the fresh beginning that everyone, at some point, craves. During the trials and tribulations of life, through the mistakes, losses, failures, and hard knocks, people often reach out, hoping to grasp even a sliver of a better, or happier, existence. Some of these people never get a tight enough hold; others grab the bull by the horns.

What is it that makes these people different, more capable of attaining that second chance? They seem no different than all the rest-on the surface. Dig a little deeper and we find our answer.

So hurry on over to JollyJo’s and have yourself a Jollyjo time!

         While listening to a cd the thought,”wash ,rinse,and condition ran across my mind.

 The cd talked about how you needed to change your thought patterns,in order

 to get different results(wash).He also said;you need to watch your gestures,facial

 expressions, and overall body language(rinse).People are always checking our body

 language to see if they can see what we’re about.Most times this is done within the first

 90 seconds(a smile,a wave,or a handshake is good body language).

              Next,you should be careful of the words you use and how you say them to

 people(rinse).The same word used with  a different pitch or tone is interpreted and

 received in a very different manner.

       Once you have changed your thought patterns,watched your body language and

 selection of words to use;you are ready to condition your mind,body,and mouth to

 do the things that need to be done in order for you to win(conditioning).

       Your mental state is everything! If you’re in the right mental state ,you’ll make

 better decisions.The decisions you make today will chart your coarse for the next

  10,20, or 30 years. So try to make well informed decisions.

    Remember this ; patterns are habits and habits are patterns. Anything you do on a

 daily basis,has a chance of becoming a habit(good or bad).You want to be engaged in

 activities that are goal related.If they’re not goal related,try to schedule those events

 during non-working hours.Whatever you decide to do(good or bad),will become a part

 of your conditioning.

   ” Your condition doesn’t determine your outcome. However,your conditioning(mental,

 physical,and spiritual) in most cases;will be the decisive factor.”

Hello everyone,
are you making sure to take some time out to share

time with the ones you love? I never heard about anyone

on there deathbed saying,” I sure did wish I spent more

time at the office.” However,I know of many people who

regreted not spending more time with the ones they love.

Ok,so from our topic some of you have figured out this

(strong)week’s featured blogsite.The author of the blogsite

is non-other than the diamond lady herself, Diamond

 ( aka Chyntia Diaz ).What you can expect to hear about

 and see at :

www.dioamondweddingring.blogspot.com

is going to be about,you guessed it; diamonds.Diamond

will give you information about diamonds,diamond rings,and

 other things relating to diamonds such as appraisals and etc…

When you consider the cost and the fact that you will be

wearing the ring even after the honeymoon is over,it just

makes good sense to get more information before you get

 that piece of ice.
 Also,as I will continue to print over and over again. I hope

that all garryblanson.com community members will continue

to visit each other’s blogsites.Visiting is one of the best ways

 for you to get to know oneanother,and to find out what is

going on in each other’s community.

So go on out and visit Diamond at :

You may just learn something in the process!

Ok,first you need to get out your sewing materials.If you’re into sewing,you already know what they are.Next,look though the catalog and decide which pattern you want to use.Then,cut out your pattern and prepare it for layout.Now,get some material(fabric)and pins,so you can complete the layout.After you have completed doing the layout,get some scissors and go ahead and cut out the pattern pieces.
The reason for using the sewing good patterns topic is to illustrate the parallels of sewing good patterns to sowing good(behavior)patterns. In both cases,you have to be particular about the pattern(s)you choose.You also need to be careful when you layout your pattern(s).With the good (behavior pattern(s);you really need to watchout while you are cuttting the pattern(s).
Now,we are down to the most important part;the actual sewing(sowing).Just as the Bible teaches;whatever you sew(sow),that shall you also reap!The more I think about it,the more I’m convinced that people are the sum total of what they sow.You become whomever or whatever through the things you sow on a daily basis. [You don’t become anything overnight. How does a dentice becomes a dentice?By sowing(doing) dentist related work on a daily basis.How does an alcoholic becomes an alcoholic.By sowing(doing) alcoholic related thing on a daily basis.How did Michael Jordan,Julius(DR. J)Erving,Larry Bird,Jerry West,and Ervin(Magic)Johnson become great
basketball players?By sowing(doing) basketball related thing on a daily basis.
I guess that’s why we’re called the microwave generation.We want everything to happen in
10 or 15 minutes.When it doesn’t,we get all frustrated and bewildered.We should realize that
the Bible is true;what ever we sow,we shall also reap(it we faint not - don’t give up).For many
of us,the problem is that we fail to water the things that we have sown.You have to continually
water your dreams and your goals.You have to keep them in front of you daily.You have to
actively pursue them on a daily basis.You have to make them a “Must” !
Again I ask ; are you sewing(sowing) good (behavior)patterns.
- garry b

Thoughts to ponder :
You make decisions;your decisions shape your world.
You form habits(behavior patterns);your habits(behavior patterns)
turn around and form you.
Therefore,you become the things you do on a daily basis.
Whatever you want to become,whoever you want to be?
You are going to have to do things related to it,in order to become it.
Go ahead,Take Action,Do It Now!
