Dear Sir,

Recently doing an essay regarding the theories concerning the use of 'tense' 
in Hebrew prose, just want to find out how did the tense-based, aspect-based, 
and discourse-lingustic theory bring the implication for text interpretation. 
Kindly advise, thanks.

Regards,
cheechen

Charles:
OpenOffice has Presentation. I haven=E2=80=99t used it much, as I haven=E2=
=80=99t had much
call for PowerPoint presentations. The little I=E2=80=99ve used it seems to=
 have at
least most of the features of PowerPoint=E2=84=A2.

I have MicroSoft Office on only one of the computers I regularly use (used
to use). The reason I pretty much stopped using it is because of the
problems I=E2=80=99ve had with multi-language support. Try Presentation, se=
e if it
does the job.

I see you are part of distance learning for the school. Simply tell your
students to download OpenOffice (NeoOffice on the Mac) (it=E2=80=99s free) =
if
they=E2=80=99re the reason you=E2=80=99re trying to switch to PowerPoint.
