I saw him, standing there, looking forlorn, against the balcony railing outside my door as I rolled up to the Days Inn motel after my night sharing the college jock Steve with his suddenly very friendly boyfriend, the college freshman who sang a strong high tenor note when Steve was thrusting deep inside him. Gordon Fields, my original threesome partner with Theo Kline, the man I'd only briefly seen again after two decades in passing at the Key West airport, where Kline was sending him on a mission back to Hollywood, looked like he didn't know what to do next-that his only mission was to find me and that he had no idea where to go from there if I wasn't at the motel.
His eyes lit up when he saw me getting off my moped, and he straightened up from his slouch against the railing and met me at the head of the stairs up to the second level. "Thank god you're back," he blurted out. "They've found the plane. I've just come from the police station-I had to fly back as soon as I heard; just as I thought, there was no real reason for Theo to have sent me back to Hollywood. I'm sure he knew something was up and he just wanted to get me out of harm's way. Damn fool; I would have stuck with him no matter what."
"Well, maybe that's exactly why he sent you away, Gordon. You must mean that much to him," I responded wearily.
Gordon continued on. "And that woman detective Sylvia Browne said I could-"
"Come inside, Gordon," I said as I walked past him and slipped my key card into the door slot. "I may not want to hear this standing out here on the balcony." I had a sudden feeling of dread. I knew it was Theo. Why would Gordon have come otherwise? I didn't want to hear-but then, at the same time, I wanted to know the worst.
"Is it Theo?" I asked when we were in the room. Gordon was still standing, but I had sunk down onto the bed-exhausted now, the unexpected presence of Gordon and the jolt of reality draining the cloud nine I had been on from the night under the young, hard body of the college jock.
"No, no sign of Theo yet," Gordon said.
I'd had no idea how tensed up I'd been in the previous three minutes. Yesterday and last night and now this release of tension drained me, and I collapsed back onto the bed. Gordon sat down next to me and leaned over me immediately.
"Clint, Clint, are you all right?" His voice was full of concern, and he wrapped his arms around me and lifted my chest up from the bed. He was rocking me back and forth, and I would have shown him I was fine sooner, but I was enjoying the intimacy-for some reason I sought the intimacy at this point.
"Yes, yes. It's OK. I'm OK. Just the thought that Theo-"
"Hush, hush," Gordon whispered, "I know. I felt the same. I had to find you and tell you. We've heard nothing from him, but at least . . . oh, god, Clint, it's been so long. You're still so-"
The tone of concern in Gordon's voice had turned husky, and I lifted my face to his and took his lips with mine, not needing to hear anything else now-having other needs, the memories of that summer with him and Theo flooding into my mind.
He ran a hand under my T and stroked my chest and nipples and my belly. And I sighed for him and moaned. Then he pulled my T over my head and pulled me up onto the bed and kissed me on the lips again and then started working his way down my body-burying his face in the hollow of my neck and then in my pits. His hands were working under the waistband of my cutoffs, and after finding and stroking my cock hard and cupping and squeezing my balls, he stripped off my cutoffs. Meanwhile he was worrying my nipples with his teeth and then my navel, and eventually he moved to swallowing my cock and bringing me to a boil and a fountaining in a long-remembered melting technique.
I was turned onto my back in the center of the bed, and his face was between my butt cheeks, seeking and finding and opening and wetting. And then I held onto the slats of the headboard for dear life, as he thrust deep inside me and rode me and rode me and rode me.
Sometime later, when I had recovered from his lovemaking and we were laying there, arm in arm, both exhausted but mellow in our homecoming reunion, I had the presence of mind to return to pressing reality.
"The plane. You were going to tell me about the plane," I murmured.
"Crashed," Gordon whispered, his voice still husky from answered lust. "They think there was a bomb on board from the way the bystanders described the crash. No survivors."
"Eddie Lund was the pilot, of course. The passengers they've identified were the Chinese actress, Clara Rose, and Joe and Aaron Blum."
"When was this crash?" I asked sharply, all attention now. I sat up in bed and reached for my cutoffs.
"Yesterday afternoon. Witnesses saw it come down, so they can pinpoint the time."
"That can't be . . . or was it all an illusion?"
"What? What illusion?" Gordon asked.
"I saw Clara Rose last night . . . or I thought I did. On Duval Street. Only saw her from the back, but it sure looked like her. Not too many with that hairdo and those hairpins walking around Key West."
"Well, it couldn't have been The Rose," Gordon said. "She was long dead by that time." He was stroking the small of my back languidly with his fingers, and I could tell he wanted to fuck again.
I lay there in silence. What was it Theo always said? Connections. No, not that. Things not always being what they seemed. He was always talking about movies and the illusions movie people created to convince their audience that they were seeing something they weren't.
"Gordon," I said, breaking into my silence. "No, no, don't do that. Serious talk here. For Theo." Gordon's hand had moved to my belly and was drifting down. "What were the guests on Theo's yacht doing on the movie set? I mean what were their functions?"
Gordon gave me a funny look, but then he dutifully answered. "Joe Blum was directing-Theo was producing, of course. Joe's son, Aaron, was Theo's new boy toy, but technically he was Theo's assistant. Eddie Lund and The Rose were the principal actors. Jerome was Theo's man everything. He also did some of the bit acting in the film. Kurt was in charge of the camera work; Melda took care of the scripts."
"And the ship's captain?" I asked. "He was in the scene I saw being filmed the other day. He was on a motorboat with Jerome."
"Diego Alarcon? The Colombian? Yeah, he covered some of the bit parts as well."
"What about a Derek Dominick? I ran across him in Miami, where he said he was in films, and then I saw him on the Final Curtain II-but not on the deck with the guests. I saw him below decks."
"Derek Dominick? No, I don't think so. I don't know who that is, and I know everyone working on the film."
But when I described Dominick to Gordon and suggested that he might have given me a false name, Gordon gave that some thought and said, "That could have been Jake Holt. Sounds like him from the description, and I wouldn't put it past him to give you a fake name too-and to pump up what he did in the film. He's just a cameraman. A pretty good one, but a nasty piece of work. He was Joe Blum's good deeds for publicity project; had done time. Joe insisted Theo sign him on for this movie."
"That sounds like him," I said. I didn't tell Gordon I suspected this Jake guy of having been involved in Gary Meltzer's death on the Atlanta-to-Miami flight.
But I'd saved the one that concerned me the most to last. "And how about Clara Rose's brother-Sam? I don't remember his Chinese name. What was his role in the film?"
"Ah, yes, Tung Chun-fai. He has always been The Rose's stunt double. All of that flashy Kung Fu stuff she did in those Chinese films? That was really Sam, made up to look like her. They're twins and have the same build. The switch was quite easy."
"Of course," I said, "Things are not always what they seem to be."
"What?" Gordon asked. He had his hand underneath the waistband of my cutoffs now and what he was doing down there was weakening my resolve.
"Oh, just something Theo often said to me-something I've found quite useful in my work. And you said neither this Jake guy nor Sam were found in the wreckage of the plane? Ohhhh, god. Again. Do that ag . . . ohhh, god."
"Nope," Gordon said in a dreamy voice that let me know he was just about finished talking-at least for a while. "The Cessna 182's a four-passenger plane. Eddie, The Rose, and the two Blums. Found and making up a full complement."
"And where did they find this plane? Do you know?"
"Come on, enough talk for now," Gordon growled. "I want you again."
"Just this-and then you will have earned a reward." I was too much on edge myself now to deny him much longer. "Try to remember. The plane was manifested for Biloxi. Is that where it went down?"
"No. Somewhere north of Fort Myer, I think. North up through Florida. Near a place called Babcock."
That cooled my ardor real fast-if only for a moment. I pulled away from Gordon and bounded off the bed, headed for my briefcase.
"Hey! You said."
"Just a minute," I answered. "Hold it for just a minute, and then I'll make it worth your while."
I rummaged around in the briefcase and came up with a map of Florida. "Aha!" I exclaimed when I'd found Babcock. "In Miami, the Jake guy told me he was going over to Lakeland, although I found he came on down to Key West instead-really made tracks to get here before me. Is there any place connected to the movie company over in Lakeland that he might be going?"
"Yeah, sure," Gordon answered. "Some of the filming is up in Lakeland. And that's where the props and equipment warehouse is-and the scenery back lot."
"OK, then I'm off to Lakeland. Babcock is in the direct air path from here to Lakeland. I have a hunch I need to get to Lakeland."
"Theo?" Gordon asked.
"Maybe. I sort of hope not. But I'll see."
"No, we'll see. You won't mind if I come along, will you?" Gordon asked.
"Better not. It could be dangerous. It's down to police work now."
"And do you know where you're going when you get to Lakeland?" Gordon asked. "I've been there; have you? How much time can you give to finding the warehouse?"
"Good point," I said. "So, I guess it's going to be 'we' who are going to Lakeland. Still as good a shot as you were twenty years ago?"
"Come back to bed and I'll show you how good a shot I am," Gordon said. And then he laughed a lusty laugh.
"OK, you're on," I answered. "But after we're done, you have to remind me to call Sylvia Browne. I think I can name the killers she's after now-and they aren't among the cast of characters who are known to have already bitten the dust."
By the time I'd finished that speech I was back on the bed, and, to Gordon's surprise-and delight-I was taking charge. I pushed him onto his back and straddled his hips with my thighs. Impaling myself on his luscious cock, I began showing him how well I could ride.

The Tarikon VIII Disaster was an unforeseen side-effect of the Romulan Star Empire testing a new kind of superweapon in the polar regions of Tarikon 8.
The MissionEdit
The Romulans, at that time lead by Admiral Narok, managed to capture a Metar leader on Hrimfraxi, after which Narok's scientists wanted to conduct more experiments to see if the Metar leader could form the basis of a new Shiva Device. Tarikon 8 was selected as the testing site of the weapon. In order to get the right information, the Romulans had to capture the Science Station of the nearby colony from the United Federation of Planets, after which the research allowed the construction of the weapon. Admiral Narok had ordered the weapon to be tested on the colony from the Klingon Empire.
The DisasterEdit
The weapon, under escort by Romulan units, succeeded in reaching its destination and completely obliterated the Klingon base, but as an unforeseen side-effect, 1/6th of the planet's mass was also vaporized in the blast. This caused the planet Tarikon 8 to spin out of its orbit and into open space, which not only doomed whatever remained of the Klingon colonists, but also the Federation and the Romulan bases as well as an outpost of the Metar were lost in the process.
Both the Klingons and the Federation wanted to know who was responsible for the disaster and, according to Sarek and the Hubrin, it was soon revealed that Admiral Narok was the responsible figure, due to his desire to goad the Klingon Empire into an 'unwinnable war'. This was because Admiral Narok held a grudge against the Klingon Empire for the defeat the Romulans suffered from the battle of Klach D'Kel Brakt. To prepare himself for this war, Narok manipulated the Romulan commander responsible for overseeing the expansion into the Tabula Rasa by first collecting a specified amount of dilithium on the planet Taphet, followed by the capture of the Metar-occupied Klingon Arsenal on Al-Fadir and the capture of the Metar Ras on Hrimfraxi. To 'persuade' the commander into co-operating with him, Admiral Narok also took the initial superior to the Romulan commander as well as the commander's own family hostage. Once that was made clear, Admiral Narok's plans were eventually defeated, his hostages freed and the secret experiments he had undertaken would become public knowledge, the only irony being that the technology used for this was in fact the key to victory... but over the Metar and NOT the Klingons.

OTTAWA, Feb 22 (Reuters) - Statistics Canada said on Monday it would continue to temporarily delay the publication of economic data from media lock-ups because it is still having trouble updating the federal agency's website.
Statscan usually releases data precisely at 8:30 a.m. EST (1330 GMT). Starting Feb. 5, it stopped opening communications channels from the media lock-up until the daily release had been published on the website.
Since then, delays in data releases have stretched up to 22 seconds past 8:30 am.
In an e-mailed statement, Statscan said it was working to resolve the problem.
"Standard lockup procedures will resume when Statistics Canada is fully satisfied that official release occurs without fail on the website at 8:30 a.m.," said Gabrielle Beaudoin, director general of the communications division.
Many banks and trading organizations use sophisticated programs that can execute trades in less than a second after data are released. Canadian releases often coincide with those in the United States.
Mazen Issa, senior foreign exchange strategist at TD Securities in New York, said the Statscan delays would make life harder for market operators trying to interpret both U.S. and Canadian figures.
"In terms of the purity or the integrity of the trading pattern afterward, it's a little bit more obscure than releasing it exactly when the data should be released," he said in a phone interview.
"It complicates the overall initial interpretation and the trading performance right afterward. But does it get sustained? Likely not." (Reporting by David Ljunggren and Leah Schnurr; Editing by James Dalgleish)

When does it look good/ how low is too low? I'm a 17 year old boy & everyone does it, at least waistband & maybe few inches below it. Seems like the taller/ slimmer you are the lower you wear them to fit the trend. I did a quick google image search to show how we wear our jeans, put some links below- tell me which look good & which are going too far. I wear my jeans below the waistband, like this: It's almost like they were made to be worn that way. I wear a thick belt and wear them a little higher up in back. Hard to tell i'm even doing it. It's much more comfortable. 2 more examples of like me:
Lots of images came up, I think it's so popular there's fashion sites just about sagging. Just Bieber seems to be a big influence, here's what I saw of him:
And here's some normal images that came up, just your typical teen boy/ guy:
So what do you guys think? Is it sexy? How low should they sit on your waist? And boxers or boxer briefs? You normally can't see a sagger's underwear, but if you can what looks the best? And is it respectful? If i'm wearing a tucked in shirt it would be higher up my waist (but not so that it's uncomfortable).
Tell me which links are good examples of what look good. So apparently it's a bigger and more diverse fashion trend than I thought, many different ways to do it.
Thanks and have a great day/ night. :)
Most Helpful Girl
I hate it honestly. If they like it, go for it, but I will have you know that the whole trend was started in prison; men who WANTED to get anal would wear their pants low to invite it. So... yeah.
I don't mind if they are baggy around the ankles, but if I see your underwear... it ain't a preference, that's all I'll say.20|20|0
Most Helpful Guy
Thats why they invented the belt. They have only been around since the bronze age so thats probably why they haven't heard of them. Their designed to prevent your pants from falling down. I would say due to the duration and staying power of the belt as a fashion trend one could conclude that having your pants hanging below your ass has never been fashionable, at least not for the past 6,000 years or so. In short, pull your pants up it looks ridiculous. If you don't believe me, just consider the mullet.
This was fashionable at one point. Is that what you really want? Really? Just say no to stupid fashion trends, your future self will thank you.10|10|0
Thanks for the input!
Not a problem, its something everybody does, teen self goes this is a brilliant idea! ten years later you realize it was a terrible idea. Thats why its important to listen to people older then you they where stupid so you don't have to be. :D

Schedule 1 stunning followed by decapitation
- Technique
- Summary
- Resources and references
- Schedule 1 stunning followed by decapitation sampling in other animals
- All blood sampling techniques in the rat
The primary reason for carrying out this technique is to obtain a large volume of blood which has not been affected by anaesthetic drugs or carbon dioxide. A large volume of blood can be collected from the trunk if necessary.
Suitable for all strains of rat, this technique should only be used in exceptional circumstances. The ASPA limits its use to rodents of body weight 1 kg or less. Concusssion of the brain is acheived by striking the cranium. The rat must be determined as dead before decapitation can take place (see Section 1(4) of the amended ASPA).
Concussion of the brain is a Schedule 1 method of euthanasia and should only be carried out by people competent in this method for the species and size of the animal. Training for stunning and decapitation should be undertaken on dead animals.
|Number of samples
|Sample volume
|Up to 10 ml
|Suitable sharp instrument to decapitate, (e.g., guillotine or sharp scissors).
|Staff resource
|One person
|A high level of expertise is required for this technique.

The vihuela is a five-stringed instrument with origins in Spain. The vihuela is used similar to a rhythm guitar and most commonly used to make Spanish-style music. Tuning a vihuela is not hard, but you will need a chromatic tuner unless you have excellent ears for discerning musical tones.
Things You'll Need
- Chromatic Tuner (recommended)
Bring your vihuela and your tuner to a quiet room where the tuner will not be distracted by other sounds and where you can concentrate.
Begin with the bottom string and tune it to an "E." Move on to the second-to-bottom strong and tune it to "B."
Tune the third-from-bottom string to a "G." Tune the fourth-from-bottom string to a "D." Finally, tune the top string to an "A." Replay each string to make sure tuning the others didn't affect them. Adjust as necessary.
Tips & Warnings
- To achieve that signature vihuela sound, always tune up, rather than down.

Equivalencies… Language or Otherwise
Categories: Content Controller, Content Distribution Solutions, Products, Software Development
9 Aug 2016
I can't think of a single LMS that handles language support elegantly. Yes, many of them have a setting whereby a person who speaks another language can reconfigure the interface to reflect their preferred language. But very few LMSs allow a learner to switch the courses offered to them from a default language to their own. Some allow an administrator to make efforts to manage this, but it is incredibly difficult as reports don't understand that "Basic HR Training (French)" earns the same credit as "Basic HR Training (English)".
LMSs often assume that the content itself can handle this, and some pieces of content do. They embed multiple voiceover tracks, or language resources, and allow the learner to make a choice from within each course, switching to their preferred language. But this is hard to do in a single piece of content, and the reality is that almost no content vendors bother.
Truthfully, this is the kind of thing that content providers are better suited to than LMSs and their administrators. Content providers are invested in learners' ability to grasp the material. Content providers have reason to make their content better than their competitors, whereas LMSs have less incentive to do so.
These are my beliefs:
- LMSs should not have to understand that different courses in different languages fulfill the same requirement.
- Learners should be allowed to take their training in the language with which they are most comfortable.
- Content providers care more about content and its applicability than LMS vendors.
- Content providers need to be able to use their preferred authoring environments and tools.
We built Content Controller to accommodate these beliefs. When a learner launches a course from their own LMS, Content Controller offers the learner the choice amongst the supported languages for that course. Their LMS knows nothing about the fact that there are multiple supported languages, just that it needs to launch the course.This means that the content provider can create the course using whatever tools they wish. Then, they create an equivalent in Content Controller that relates all the language variations of a course with the respective languages. The learner makes a choice during their initial launch, which can be persisted in the application, and that choice determines which variation of the course is delivered to them. The magic here is the LMS never knows any of this is happening, just that the learner has fulfilled the requirement. Meanwhile, the content provider can guarantee for their customers that their learners are taking courses in the language they understand best.
This capability in Content Controller has shifted the responsibility for learner-course/language association from the LMS, which never does it well, to the content provider, who has the ability to offer multiple languages of the same course and manage it effectively. Better for the learner, better for the LMS administrator, and better for the content provider.

We see two distinct ways to innovate learning standards. One is to push the community forward by developing and evangelizing emerging standards. We do this all the time. The other is to create and deploy new approaches around existing standards.
Our SCORM Engine powers content launch for the vast majority of LMSs in the world. Our SCORM Driver is used by all but one of the largest rapid authoring tools and countless content creators.
Today we're announcing Content Controller. We believe that content providers have been underserved. Limitations imposed by SCORM have discouraged innovation that can help them realize the value of their compelling content.
Many industries have transitioned to "as a Service" models. Software as a Service is quite familiar, and Infrastructure as a Service and Platforms as a Service are well on their way too. In each case, customers are able to leave more of the problems to their providers, and providers are able to iterate much more quickly and proficiently than their customers. Providers are also able to generate long term recurring revenue by this model.
In the elearning world, content has long been deployed physically, as digital assets, from content provider to customer. While this has long been required by SCORM's architecture, it also created real issues.
LMSs are prone to have duplicate and out of date content.
Customers are liable to use content well beyond its licensed period and/or licensed number of learners.
Content providers are blind not only to the utilization of their content, but to the value of it.
Content Controller addresses all of these issues by allowing the content provider to host their content centrally while deploying it for use by their customers. Built on top of our existing SCORM Dispatch product (meaning this is well vetted), Content Controller circumvents SCORM's limitations to allow both provider and customer to have what they need. This allows Content Controller customers to offer Content as a Service (CaaS).
Content Controller provides version management, license management, content analytics, and sophisticated equivalencies that allow content owners and their customers to do things they haven't previously.
I'm really excited about this product personally because I think some of the best creative work in our industry is being done by content providers. This will allow those companies to take proper advantage of their unique abilities. We've developed this initial version of Content Controller in conjunction with four customers, and the first of the deployments are live and have already delivered tens of thousands of launches. This is just the beginning.

All work and no play, well, that's just not how we do things.
The first thing people usually learn about our company is that we work with e-learning standards like SCORM and the Tin Can API. The second thing that people tend to learn about us is that we have fun.
Part of the fun we have at the office revolves around ping pong — singles matches, doubles matches, inventing new variations of pong (we have one called "grand canyon pong"), and keeping track of our office rankings on the "Pong Ladder".

|Ligging vakantiehuis
|Minimum verblijf
|5 nachten
Een prachtige kunst en kunstnijverheid huisje met de perfecte veranda te zitten of dineren op .... rieten stoelen en een eettafel kunt u al uw zorgen te vergeten en te ontspannen.
Gelegen in het historische centrum van New Preston met restaurants en antiekwinkels aan alle smaken te voldoen. Prachtige Lake Waramaug een fiets rijden.
I loved going back-in-time to my grandparents home in Torrington, CT. Kerrie was so helpful before and during our stay. In spite of almost 90 degree days, her suggestion of closing the house up, provided a pleasant evening temperature inside; we were amazed.
I would definitely come here again.
We had a lovely stay at this charming cottage. It was the perfect size for a family of four, with a beautiful backyard and close to a cute little village and nice lake to swim in. Kerrie was very responsive and the house has a cozy, warm feel to it. We'd stay again, for sure. Thanks!
This cottage is like stepping back to your childhood - visiting your grandmother or great aunt with all the cool stuff. The cottage is mostly in original condition, with gorgeous wood floors and the cutest kitchen ever! Yet the washer and dryer in the basement make it convenient for modern living. It tool us three days to even notice the TV in the living room, and we never turned it on. The artwork on the walls is fabulous, some of it done by the owner!
The kitchen is amazingly well stocked, the gas oven and stove work perfectly and there is every pan and pot you can imagine. The bedrooms are comfortable and the bathroom functional with always enough hot water. There is enough space for everyone.
The front porch is the perfect place to hang out and have meals. My kids loved the croquet set and played every day in the backyard.
There is no AC, but fans keep the house cool. We left the windows open every night, then closed them up before it got hot to keep the cool air in. We were never uncomfortable and it hit over 90 during our visit. The beach was perfect for cooling down too :)
It is a short drive or 10 minute walk to the beach. The beach is clean and perfect for kids. There are picnic tables in the shade so bringing snacks is possible, toilets, and even kayaks you can rent. The lifeguards are super friendly.
The village is a 2 minute walk to a coffee shop and deli and a few cute shops. For grocery shopping drive to Northville Market or Bantam Market for upscale and health foods (from kombucha on tap to raw milk, awesome cheese, local artisan bread, GF, Vegan foods, etc...), or down to the Big Y in New Milford or ShopRite in Brookfield for big shops.
Lots of local farm stands for fresh blueberries, fresh milk and more. Check out when the local farmers markets are too.
As a note, I grew up a few towns away from here, and know the area well. I came back with my husband and 9 and 10 year old for a one week stay in July 2016. We all enjoyed it and adored the cottage. Highly recommend for a truly relaxing family holiday.
Kerrie is a wonderful owner, clearly loves the house, and was responsive and our security deposit was returned within 24 hours. Could not ask for a more lovely owner or home to visit.
Kerrie's house is lovely with everything one could need for a week's stay (or longer). We love Lake Waramaug and the Litchfield area. Our 4 year old daughter also had blast with the lake nearby and the playground at the end of Church St. One needs a car to explore the area and check out great restaurants like Community Table or the farmer's markets in Washington or Morris. Kerrie was super-responsive to all inquiries and requests and her house is perfect for a relaxing getaway from the city. We loved the front porch where we ate EVERY meal and the large backyard with the hammock. We would definitely return!
I've just spent three weeks in this charming cottage where memories of what summer is all about came roaring back. The cottage itself is very cute and easy to maintain so time is not spent having to do lots of upkeep rather than relaxing and enjoying the day.
My favorite room is the front porch both on sunny and rainy days, having morning coffee or a glass of wine in comfortable wicker chairs. Also it's a great place for dinner with a table and four chairs.
The cottage is a fabulous location, 5 minutes to a lovely beach on beautiful Lake Waramaug.
There are many other interesting villages nearby, including charming New Preston itself (a very short walk down the hill), and activities galore going on from concerts to house and garden tours, shopping, scenic drives everywhere, great restaurants or just kicking back on that aforementioned porch and reading, taking a nap, or just watching the world go by.
In all, a real little gem.....I'll be back.

Extremely slow while editing or previewingAsked by UNLOCKTHEPPO on November 11, 2016 at 12:43 PM
I am in the process of building a form and the more I add to the form the slower the editor gets. It seems to be affected the most by the conditional fields (show/hide). It is now to the point I have to wait a couple minutes in-between each new field or conditional I add before it is done updating and saving before I can continue. When in preview mode the form response is also very slow particularly on conditional radio button questions.
I have tried IE, Firefox and Edge (works best in Edge, but still very slow.) I have tried clearing the browser and form cache and reloading, which works for one edit, but then is right back to being very slow again. I do not have auto fill enabled.
Thank you
JotForm Support
I have checked your JotForm and see that there are about 180 form fields including widgets and over 100 conditions set. Please be noted that when the form is loaded in the browser, it loads all the fields along with the conditions to the browser storage. Each time a field with conditions is accessed, form checks for all the conditions that is having the field that might slow down the form to display the fields. Sometimes it might also freeze the browser as well.
You may consider reviewing the conditions once again or break the form into multiple forms based on the sections. If you need to forward any data to another form you can pass the data by following the guide below:
Hope this information helps! Please get back to us if you need any further assistance. We will be happy to help.

- Focus on qualified leads. Sales and marketing need to agree on how to define qualified leads as well as on a process for managing them. I find that getting the who, what, when, where and why laid out in advance provides accountability and helps ensure that every lead gets prompt attention. And speed does count. Studies show that response rates fall by half after just 48 hours if you fail to communicate with a prospect and, in some instances, by as much as 90% after a week.
- Develop a communication strategy. Map out in advance what you will send, provide or say in response to different types of inquiries and leads—and have a variety of relevant marketing items readily available in different formats, such as printed materials, Web downloads, podcasts, email templates and phone scripts.
- Be solutions-oriented. No matter how you deliver your messages, they should focus on solutions rather than raw product data or features alone. Remember to offer content prospects can really use. The reason: Along with systematically moving prospects one step closer to the point of purchase, your strategy should center on building confidence in your company and its products.
- Nurture today's leads for tomorrow's sales. Sometimes a good lead isn't ready to buy just yet. The prospect may be doing research for a purchase that's six months to a year off. Don't let these leads go cold. Instead, nurture them. Keep them in the pipeline using the same multitouch, multichannel process you would use for a high-ticket or complex sale with a closer purchase date.
- Find the right fulfillment partner. Better fulfillment companies go beyond same-day order shipping and inventory management, supporting clients' business strategies with such services as data-driven digital print-on-demand. Ask potential vendors about all their capabilities, including their ability to capture and integrate data from your telemarketers or call centers.

The state of Virginia will no longer recognize concealed carry handgun permits from 25 states with loose laws that have reciprocity agreements with the commonwealth, a major step forward for gun control efforts.
Recommended: This Congresswoman Advocating For Gun Control Survived Being Shot
"While you are here, you are subject to the commonwealth's gun laws," Attorney General Mark R. Herring (D) reportedly said in a news conference.
The change means Virginia's standards for obtaining a concealed weapon are applied "evenly, consistently and fairly," he added.
With this new policy, Virginia residents who have a history of stalking, drug dealing or inpatient mental-health treatment can't get a gun permit in a different state with more lax laws and then bring it back home.
This effort, albeit fairly small in the bigger scheme of things, will help keep guns out the hands of people who are likely to be dangerous or irresponsible with a concealed handgun.
The 25 states whose permits will no longer be recognized in Virginia are; Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
Herring deserves kudos for finding a way to tighten gun restrictions without going through the GOP-controlled legislatures. The reaction from Virginia republicans just proves they would have kicked this idea to the curb.
This is a big deal, especially considering just earlier this year Virginia experienced one of the most disturbing, traumatic shootings of two journalists on live television by someone who was mentally disturbed carrying a legal handgun.
Recommended: What Could Tougher Gun Laws Have Done To Stop Vester Lee Flanagan?
Of course the republicans think this new policy is an extension of a bigger, "evil" liberal agenda to restrict Americans' constitutional rights.
This seems to be a potentially effective measure to eliminate the loophole for people who have no business with guns to legally obtain them.
Over time, if this proves to be successful, other states are going to need to jump on board. This country can't handle too many more mass shootings before it implodes!

BART public meeting on Saturday, May 2nd to review civilian police oversight models
BART finally has a public meeting scheduled that working people can attend. It's scheduled for Saturday, May 2nd, at 1pm. It will be held at the Metro Center Auditorium (101 Eighth Street), across the street from the Lake Merritt BART station in Oakland.
It's taken a lot of pressure over the last several months from Oscar Grant's family, community members, and activists to get to this point, so keep the pressure on by showing up and holding BART's feet to the fire. Tell them that vague promises about having civilian police review set up by the end of the year are not good enough. Tell them they need to support AB312 now before the bill dies in a state legislative committee. Tell them that not holding (at least) Tony Pirone, Gary Gee, and Dorothy Dugger to account is unacceptable.
Study up on what you can find before the meeting -- so that when you do go in, you can give them an educated earful and not let them give you the run around with their typical excuses. Attend whatever meetings you can beforehand with groups committed to justice for Oscar Grant (No Justice NO BART, Town Halls, etc). Let the BART Police department Review Committee know that all decisions they make from here on out must be discussed in public well ahead of time and that they will not be allowed to creep back into their comfortable secrecy hole, pretending that public input doesn't matter or is just an afterthought.
And, remember, while potential police oversight models are discussed on May 2nd, it remains an open question as to if they even need their own police force at all. It's the people's time to seize the agenda and establish community demands as BART policy -- don't let them box in what can and can't be done without real community involvement. The days of BART dictating to the public are over if enough people stay involved for the long haul.

Bully Free Community!
"Be the change you wish to see in the world" ~Ghandi
Bullying is a serious problem. If you witness bullying don't just sit and be afraid. Don't sit in the background and watch someone get kicked, punched, thrown, hit, beat, spit on, and called names. DO SOMETHING, if not for yourself for the victims at your school.

To determine the best tablecloth sizes for your table, you need to know:
- The dimensions of your table, length and width, plus how far down you want it to drop.
- The most desired drop:
- 8″-12″ to lap level
- 29″-30″ to the floor
Once you have these dimensions, to determine the tablecloth sizes, add the drop twice to each of your tabletop length and width measurements. You add it twice since it will be hanging down on both ends.
For Example:
Table size is 36″ by 60″; desired drop is 12″
12″ (drop size) X 2=24″
Add 36″ + 24″= 60″
Add 60″ + 24″= 84″
Tablecloth Size= 60″ X 84″Was this helpful?10

We can make them any shape and size. If your table is an odd shape, we will require a full size pattern of the table top. If it splits down the middle for leaves, a half pattern will suffice.

From the underside you can mark the shape with a pen or marker. No need to cut the pattern out.
You can mail the pattern to us at 4815 Lynn Ct. Shawnee KS 66216. Write your contact information and measurements on the pattern, as well as your desired drop, and one of us will contact you to finalize the order once we receive it.Was this helpful?10

Hope Rescues is all volunteer, all visits must be scheduled you may do that by filling out an online application as that is needed for a visit. You can find an application our website.
Our adoption fee is $225.00 which includes all vetting.
Roxie came to us on her very last day of life
from animal control. She is a two year old
Rottweiler mix female. She was deemed not
adoptable because she had a tail, yep that was
her only flaw. A Rottie is to have their tail
bobbed and someone did not do hers.
She is oh so loving, house trained, walks well
on her leash, is good with all people including
The only fault we can find is that she really
doesn't care for other dogs. She is an alpha
female, and prefers to be an only dog. But in every other aspect of her personality she is perfect.
Please help us make room to save more homeless pets!!! Adopting from Hope Rescues saves the life of two.. the one you adopt and the one your adoption makes room for. We are a Rescue which means we physically go and save lives. Hope pulls animals on their last day of life from animal control facilities that still use the inhumane gas chamber to put to death homeless pets. Please visit our website at www.hoperescues.com

"No one but myself can be blamed for my fall. I have been my own greatest enemy---the cause of my own disastrous fate." --Napoleon
This quote says it all for me. I own my present condition. I am the one who must act. Commitment is something that must always be 100%. But being human, I sometimes doubt myself and my commitment.
Working with Jason has made the difference for me. He understands me, where I am and where I want to be. With his guidance, I'm learning the right strategies for nutrition and appropriate workout routines customized to my goals.
I now feel that my dream of being a fit guy is inevitable. This is in large part due to the guidance from Jason and being 100% committed to my goal!

No, strict diets aren't very useful or sustainable for the vast majority of people. Statistics show that there is only a 1-in-10 compliance rate over time. Losing weight quickly via crash dieting typically results in a "rebound effect" where you gain all of the weight back and then some. Of course, if there's a specific style of eating that you enjoy (such as vegetarian or paleo), it can easily be incorporated into the program lessons.
In terms of my certifications, I'm a Precision Nutrition ProCoach, a Registered Holistic Nutritionist (CSNN), Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist (FDN) and an Exercise Coach (CHEK Institute). Not only have I helped hundreds of people to become leaner, stronger and healthier, but I also practice what I preach using the exact same methods in the program!
The old adage, "You get what you pay for" really is true when it comes to nutrition and exercise programming. Even professional athletes at the top of their game understand the value of having a good coach to guide them to success. By investing in this program, you'll gain expert level nutrition and exercise knowledge that will serve you for the rest of your life!
The entire program is 12 months in total, divided into easy to follow daily lessons and two week practice habits. The habits are designed as part of a larger behaviour modification system that gradually progresses you toward your goals. If you faithfully practice the assigned habits, you can expect to see dramatic changes in your physique within the first two months.
As your coach, my mission is to not only motivate you, but also give you the knowledge to stay independently fit and healthy for the rest of your life. By the end of this program, you'll have acquired such an expert level of nutrition and exercise knowledge, that you won't ever need me again!

what are your thoughts so far? (no spoliers)
This is my first witcher game, but I'm a massive rpg fan. Just never got around to playing the first 2. The only gripe I have so far are the controls. Geralt controls like an 80 yr old man on crutches lol.
Besides that, im loving the story, the VA and the atmosphere.

I'm a PhD student at the University of Washington Information School. I work in the area of information and contemplation, specifically studying how people establish and maintain contemplative practices as a way to access personal knowledge, improve their quality of life, and cope with the distractions of digital culture.
- I write about contemplative practice on my blog
- My email address is firstname.lastname@example.com
- Here is a link to my CV

My undergraduate work trained me as a designer and technologist. I attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's School of Journalism and Mass Communication and spent my early career designing websites, programming in early web languages (HTML, CSS, Coldfusion, ASP, PHP), and conducting light user experience research as an information architect.
In 2008, I became the Director for Innovation and Digital Engagement at the Museum of Life and Science in Durham, NC, where I designed novel digital experiments in partnership with the Exploratorium in San Francisco, the Science Museum of Minnesota, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, and Michigan State University. Some of those experiments were mentioned in major media outlets like the New York Times and NPR's Science Friday (thanks to Nina Simon pointing those reporters our way), and I had the opportunity to speak about them at places like MIT, the Smithsonian, and even internationally. A complete list of those experiments is archived on this Workflowy list. The two projects I'm most proud of in that list are Experimonth and Project FeederWatch: Sketch.
While I worked for the museum, I served on my local library board for five years, eventually becoming the chair. At the same time, I worked with librarians across the state of Illinois through a program called ILEADUSA. For six years, I gave an annual keynote address and then worked with individual teams of librarians across 9-months, supporting them in taking risks with their projects and making change in the culture of their libraries.
In 2014, I quit my job at the museum, took a sabbatical in Ocracoke, NC, and started working independently with cultural organizations, libraries, museums, and foundations. My work spans digital engagement, institutional culture change, and experience design.
In the Spring of 2015, I was a visiting lecturer in the University of Washington's Museology Graduate Program. I developed and taught the course "Digital Experiments in Museums and Libraries" and also co-taught a course on "Careers and Social Capital" with Kris Morrissey. It was at this time that I met David Levy and began to explore research and teaching as a next step in my career. In the winter of 2016, I was notified of my acceptance as a PhD student.
I welcome conversations with friends and followers and regularly have coffee or Skype chats with complete strangers who email and ask to chat. If you'd like to think together, send me an email or message on Twitter.

What Girls Said 3
Its be very immature to laugh. I'd never do that
I'd feel flattered because if he Cum quickly it'd shows he's very turned on. I'd work with him to find a solution so we can enjoy sex for longer00|00|0
But do some girls laugh?
Well I have never had sex before so maybe I'm not the one to answer--But I would only be having sex with him if I'm in love with him, in which case I wouldn't care because I wouldn't be doing it just to get off I would be doing it with the thought of connecting with him on a very intimate level. Like right now I'm head over heels for a guy and I know for a fact that if we did it together and he came really fast I wouldn't care at all, in fact I would take it that he's just that attracted to me and thinks i'm beautiful. After a while a couple finds ways around it, whether that's pleasing the girl in other ways or he gets used to it. The key part is love and patience in my opinion... Now if you are just hooking up that is completely different because both people are only looking for pleasure on a shallow level, so she will be disappointing.00|00|0

text: (How important has the Iraq War been for Britain?) Militarily, the outcome wasn't what was expected or promised. So the war wasn't �won.� Also, over that process, as Britain got bogged down, attention was brought as to whether Britain should've been engaged and the original premise�British national security and interests�were actually true. And then people started to question why Blair had aligned himself with Bush so closely. I think there was a hard core of people who insisted the war was illegal and immoral, and there was another side that insisted that we had a moral obligation to unseat Saddam Hussein, and there were many people in the middle. (At the time there were many frontline political figures who were basically standing by Blair. Was that because of the relationship between the US and Britain?) Yes, many understand that Britain can't do much in the world without the US. at the same time, it was closer to September 11th, so there were more emotions around that, and being in step with the US. (If the reasons for the Iraq War were not as originally portrayed, with did Blair stick with Bush?) He profoundly believed it. (Can Washington no longer count on London?) I don't think so. Gordon Brown is at heart an Atlanticist. Brown is squeamish about being seen as too close to Europe as well. I believe this is short-sighted and na�ve, and we'll always have a close alliance with the US and the European Union. But closely related to this is say Britain decides what our own national interests are.

Target: U.S. Senator Majority Leader Mitch McConnell
Goal: Stop TPP trade deal from handing even more power to big corporations and threatening jobs and the environment.
The Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP), a big corporation trade deal that would outsource jobs, drive down wages, and hurt consumers and the environment, may soon become law. The TPP is an assault on working people to "maximize [corporate] profit and domination," according to renowned political commentator, social justice activist and Professor Emeritus at MIT, Noam Chomsky. Labor unions, environmentalists, public health activists and Presidential runner Bernie Sanders have all starkly criticized the deal.
The TPP was drafted by the Obama Administration alongside corporate lawyers. The negotiations have been kept highly secretive to the public and Congress, while Wall Street and the pharmaceutical industry have had full access to it. TPP documents that have been leaked show that the agreement would allow corporations to directly challenge laws and regulations set by U.S. policy if the corporation claims it is harmful to their future profits. Their case would go through international tribunals, or courts, that evade the constitutional judicial system.
If the trade deal is passed, a foreign company can claim their "investor protection" rights are being threatened by a local wage increase. Similarly, a tobacco company can challenge warning labels or a corporation can challenge environmental laws that they claim restrict their profit.
The TPP follows suit from other unrestricted "fair trade" agreements that have historically forced American workers to compete against abusive, low-wage labor in developing countries. This has resulted in tens of thousands of factories shutting down and immense job losses. Experts predict that if the TPP goes into effect, American workers will be pushed into lower-wage non-manufacturing industries while our service sector jobs are outsourced. Analyses suggest that the deal would decrease wages for the majority of workers while benefiting only those who already have the top salaries, widening the inequality gap.
The TPP would also allow pharmaceutical companies to extend their patents, furthering the monopolies of prescription drugs that keep prices artificially high. This corrupt deal had the potential to offer slight redemption by not accepting countries that violate human right laws, but instead it offers them duty-free access to the U.S. market with out having to improve their labor standards.
Every aspect of this deal will have devastating, long-lasting effects on a global scale. As the recession has stabilized, the last thing the world needs is big corporation gaining more power. Urge Congress to not pass this underhanded and dodgy regional trade agreement.
Dear Mr. McConnell,
The Trans Pacific Partnership that has been pushed by the Obama Administration is not only disastrous to consumers and American jobs, but it also strips the federal and state courts of power and would be virtually impossible to repeal. The secretive nature of the negotiations, as well as the deal's "fast track" process that denies Congress their right to amend it, is undemocratic and unsettling. Major political leaders, environmental groups, public health advocates and labor unions all oppose this agreement.
The "fair trade" movement that the TPP follows has been disastrous in the past, killing hundreds of thousands of jobs in America. The problems the nation currently faces will be worsened by this deal. The inequality gap will widen, corporations will be unrestricted, overpriced prescription drugs will inflate, environmental laws will weaken, wages will diminish and food safety standards will be threatened.
The TPP is a deceitful and harmful agreement and its damaging effects will be irreversible. I urge you to please protect workers and consumers and not allow this trade deal to turn into law.

Artist: John La Farge (American, New York 1835–1910 Providence, Rhode Island)
Date: 1887
Medium: Gouache and watercolor on white wove paper
Dimensions: 14 1/2 x 10 7/16 in. (36.8 x 26.5 cm)
Classification: Drawings
Credit Line: Gift of Priscilla A. B. Henderson, in memory of her grandfather, Russell Sturgis, a founder of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1950
Accession Number: 50.113.3
When La Farge painted flowers in oil during the 1860s, he preferred to capture their essence rather than to pursue scientific accuracy. The superb floral watercolors that he painted in the 1880s recall his earlier oils, but their rich color bespeaks his mastery of the watercolor medium and their decorative vitality reflects his experiments in stained glass. An astute critic remarked, "His flowers have no botanical truth, but are burning with love and beauty."
