Tech Tip

If you receive an e-mail message from a person whom you want to add to your Outlook contact list, here's a quick way to do it:

1.  Open the e-mail message that contains the name you want to add to your contact list.

2.  In the From box, right-click the name you want to make into a contact, and then Add to Contacts on the Shortcut menu.

This creates a new contact with that person's name and e-mail address already filled in. You can also fill in any additional information you have about that person, such as a phone or fax number, and then save it in your Contacts folder for easy access.

October Lesson Plans

 

This event note comes from Celia Dyer

 

The Kentucky Reading Association Bluegrass Council invites you to come spend time with

Kentucky author, George Ella Lyon,

Tues. Nov. 7, 4:30- 6 p.m.

at the

Lexington Herald-Leader,

100 Midland Ave. The corner of Midland and Main.

 

                “Where I’m From”- Ms. Lyon will discuss her famous poem and share some examples of the “Where I’m From poems” that she’s received from all over the world. One particularly compelling story is about an Irish nun who shared “Where I’m From” with members in a refugee camp in Sudan.  The homeless refugees created their own poems about where they were from, which is even more poignant because of their situation.

 

Books will be offered for sale. These make great holiday presents. You don't have to be a current KRA or Bluegrass Council member to attend.

Mark your calendar and please RSVP so we have enough refreshments.
