		<description>I have a template in Microsoft Word I use, there are three columns for the main body. On left is ref numbers, centre is text of what happen, on right is the initials of the person given any action point.

Keep it brief and in the third person. Minutes should be shown to who ever Chaired the meeting first for approval. Below are the main sections of normal minutes:

&lt;Title of meeting&gt;
&lt;Location of meeting&gt;
&lt;Date of meeting&gt;
&lt;List of people who attended the meeting&gt;
Apologies (people who didn&#039;t attend)
Last minutes agreed by all present.
Action points for last meeting
&lt;each point on the agenda&gt;
Any other business
Date and Location of next meeting (if discussed)

I&#039;m a Civil Servant which is why I know this stuff too well :-)&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not making lite of this, I&#039;m very serious, I was going through this a couple of years ago, it was worse in warmer weather but pretty bad in winter also. I was really starting to worry something was wrong with me and talked to my neighbor, she had noticed the same thing and what we figured out was a change in levels of chemical the water treatment plant was using it was also causing skin iritation. We kept switching detergents and fabric softeners till we found the right combo and now, no more odor. Always check with you dr to ease your mind and an extra check up never hurt anyone....hopefully, it&#039;s just your water. Best of luck to you.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Not sure what exactly you mean by format.

A &#039;sensible&#039; font like Arial or Times is wise. Don&#039;t go above 12 point - 11 point is best.

Make sure you use page numbers and headers and run a spell check when you&#039;ve finished.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Didn&#039;t you know that one of Obama&#039;s first executive orders is going to be to legalize all those illegal gang-bangers and then redistribute them throughout the U.S. in the states he lost as punishment?

That&#039;s apparently what he needs Villaraigosa to help with.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>I think in Word there&#039;s a doc template - try &#039;File&#039; &#039;New&#039;, rather than the &#039;new&#039; icon thing.

I tend to use a table - columns for item number (so you can easily refer to any point); the minute itself; who is assigned to any action; and an action date. One row per &#039;minute&#039;.

You can also have a later sections for an actions if you prefer that. Just make it obvious (a) what went on (who said what) and (b) who was tasked with doing what, and by when.

Good luck!&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>No doubt your &quot;association&quot; was formed as a private limited company, owned by all fifteen, and the four on the committee are its board of directors. Obviously, it can sometimes be better to have four people to whom decision-making is delegated, than trying to get a consensus of all fifteen. Directors can conduct the company&#039;s business without referring to all the members on everything - I own shares in Barclays Bank, but it doesn&#039;t ask me how much interest to charge on the loans it makes, or what colour to paint its branches. However, all management companies (including ones owned by the residents) now have legal constraints on how they go about spending the communal funds, and it is possible for disaffected members to call an extraordinary meeting, kick out any director (or all of them) by a simple majority, and appoint new directors. You need to take legal advice on the situation, which will cost money, but if enough of you are angry enough, that will spread the cost.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>I would check with your doctor, but in the meantime use a green wheat grass powder from a natural foods store (or even Trader Joes) that you can mix with cold water and drink all throughout the day in a water bottle. Chlorophyll is a natural body deoderant and by drinking it, you will cure body odor from the inside out (plus it&#039;s very very healthy &amp; good for you too!) 

When you shower, use not only a deoderant soap (those bath gels leave me feeling dirty) but use a washcloth (facecloth) to scrub the soap into your skin, as it will leave you much cleaner than using a bar of soap alone, plus it exfoliates dead skin. 

Crystal stick deoderant (salt stick) also is a natural deoderant because it prevents odor causing bacteria from growing. I always put that on under my arms upon getting out of the shower and then after it dries, I apply my regular antiperspirant/deod.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
