Sort of on that topic:
I just sailed around the two capes down south.
From Dunsboruogh to Augusta.
Quite exciting , but also tiring. Long day in some swell.
Cape Naturalist to cape leeuwinj in the south mark the limits of W.A.'s surf coast, including the breaks at Margaret River, the box, Yallingup and Cowarumup Bay.
Thankfully there was a place to drop hook behind cape leeuwin lighthouse, because it was dark and I was fucked.
Buut this morning I found the river entrance and found it was easily passable for multihulls. A good fun little ride in to the hardy inlet to some rest and drying shit out.
This is like Kalbarri.
Pouring with rain but inside cabin got some internet connection and making hot drinks.

PS. the sailing guides re3commend passing cape leeuwin anbout 10nm to the South.
I think I passed it about ten metrees to the south, cos I sure wasn't goin' all that long way round.
The only piss off I don't like in this small boat is a headwind.

I have never done any of this, but I just did a google of "convert youtube to powerpoint" and found this article. Hope this helps.
Play YouTube Videos in PowerPoint without Internet
First download the YouTube video locally in either Windows Media or AVI format since PowerPoint doesn’t understand the default FLV or MP4 formats of YouTube.
You can either use Zamzar.com or MediaConverter. org to save any YouTube video as an AVI file – I prefer Media Converter since it supports in-browser conversion while Zamzar requires your email addressing where they send the link to converted video. Once the video is saved as an AVI or WMV file on your computer, go to Insert –> Movie –> "Movie from file" to put the YouTube video in the current slide.

I use Realplayer SP: http://www.real. com/realplayer/ video-downloaderI loathe Powerpoint, so I can't help you there, but SP is very easy. Install SP, go to youtube, go to the video, hit play, put the mouse on the video screen and a
little tab pops up that asks, "Download this video?" Click on that and it saves it to your hd. Let me know if you can't get it to work and I'll download and email the video to you. Kevin
