1. Don't hide behind your podium.
1.a. Panelists: Don't hide behind your microphone/open laptop.
2. Don't stand there with your hands in your pockets.
2.a. Do something *interesting* with your hands while you speak.
3. Don't touch your face while you're talking. This includes no thumb-sucking (I deleted that picture) and rubbing your nose (I might still have that one).
4. Panelists: Don't look bored while another panelist is speaking.
5. Don't call out the photographer, referring to him (or her) in the third person while he/she is (a) still in the middle of the audience, and (b) still in a position to take further pictures and/or ratchet the flash up to new, unseen levels of power.
5.a. If you *do* call out the photographer, don't then demonstrate a pose/facial expression you *don't* like to be photographed in. At least, not while the photographer is still armed has his camera ready.
