Box around item in Beamer environment

Question

I want to put a box around the last item of the main itemizing structure (the item starting with "Set ...") of this slide. Any help?

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{etex}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{verbatim}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{bbm}
\usepackage{framed}
\usepackage{subfig}
\usepackage{tabularx}
\usepackage{caption}
\usepackage{enumerate}
\usepackage{mathrsfs}
\usepackage{appendixnumberbeamer}
\usepackage{bigints}
\usepackage{mathabx}
\usepackage[gen]{eurosym}
\usepackage[all]{xy}
\newcommand{\Def}{\color[rgb]{0,0,0}} %Black%
\newcommand{\Blue}{\color[rgb]{0,0,1}}
\newcommand{\Dblue}{\color[rgb]{0,0,.6}}
\newcommand{\Dred}{\color[rgb]{.6,0,0}}

I tried but it seems not to work for my case, as I have another itemize inside the last bullet point. — Star, Jun 02 '16 at 14:00
