powerpop 

Style of music that employs rock and roll/punk elements and an emotional undertone in its songs. Basically combines Beatle song content/jangly guitars with Johnny Thunders-esque pace and riffs.

Powerpop reached its creative peak during the late 1970's & early 1980's. Regardless of what psuedo-scene girls say...it has nothing to do with hellogoodye and everything to do with 20/20, The Knack, The Raspberries, The Nerves, etc.
Hellogoodybe IS NOT powerpop...but the Nerves are.

death by PowerPoint 

The phrase used to described the numbing sensation that accompanies a 30-slide briefing. Behind all the PowerPoint jokes are serious concerns that the program stifles discussion, critical thinking and thoughtful decision-making.
"Last year when a military Web site, Company Command, asked an Army platoon leader in Iraq, Lt. Sam Nuxoll, how he spent most of his time, he responded, “Making PowerPoint slides.” When pressed, he said he was serious."

"Despite such tales, “death by PowerPoint,” the phrase used to described the numbing sensation that accompanies a 30-slide briefing, seems here to stay. The program, which first went on sale in 1987 and was acquired by Microsoft soon afterward, is deeply embedded in a military culture that has come to rely on PowerPoint’s hierarchical ordering of a confused world."
