  1. I would ask why you and so many others don't even give it chance ? You have already made up your minds in just 12 hours, How about try it out for a week or two or maybe even a month, and then come back here and we will see what happens then. Everyone hates to change anything in their lives, and we went through this very same thing when the general chats were created, LOL the more things change the more they stay the same.
  2. We will talk to him about this tonight as I am sure he will around, we are about to install the new software finally.
  3. Yes that is correct fisherman as James the owner of VHTV set the standards for posting in the VHTV threads because he allows pictures and videos of his content here on CC as long as his logo is in the caps and vids, without the threat of DMCA take down orders that we receive from RLC regularly. As for the rest of this forum it follows the format that is being used now in the RLC threads to make it all the same.
  4. Ok Thanks I will pass this along to the Admin and we will see if we can get that fixed. When we all used the chat before was this a problem ? I remember that we could post videos and all kinds of things.
  5. What is that suppose to mean Noldus ?
  6. We will see what the Admin can do about that issue, thanks for bringing it to our attention.
  7. I will let the Admin know that you are having issues, he usually is online after lunch time. we have a new software package coming soon to take care of these problems. He will be in touch with you. Our Apologies for you inconvenience.
  8. Good thread topic, but I am not sure what is stupid ?
  9. You might want to change the name of your topic thread to Leora and Malia fan page 😉 Yes this is how a forum is suppose to be, chats are for chatting and we provide that as well if you choose to just chat. Thanks for your cooperation.
  10. Sure you can go to the open chat room, it has been around here for a long time if you choose, or you can just start a new topic of your choosing by clicking on the start a new topic at the top of the page.
  11. Opinions vary and all should be respected. Lots of different countries are represented here on Camcaps. Sometimes the translations are not what you think. Please lets be respectful to all who post on the forum.
  12. COVID-19 Provisional Counts - Weekly Updates by Select Demographic and Geographic Characteristics WWW.CDC.GOV Tabulated data on provisional COVID-19 deaths by age, sex, race and Hispanic origin, and comorbidities. Also includes an index of state-level... Nationally, the number of new cases fell 2% last week, the sixth straight week of declines, but the number of new infections still averages more than 41,000 a day. Last week's total of U.S. COVID-19 deaths was down 7% from the previous week and averaged 900 deaths a day. The United States tested on average 715,000 people a day last week, up from 685,000 people a day the prior week, but down from a peak in late July of over 800,000 people a day. Nationally, the share of all tests that came back positive for the new virus fell for a fourth week in a row to 5.8%, down from 6.3% the prior week and below a peak of nearly 9% in mid-July, according to data from The COVID Tracking Project, a volunteer-run effort to track the outbreak.
  13. A new Centers for Disease Control report shows 94% of people who died from COVID-19 in the U.S. had contributing health conditions. Reality check: While the cause of death listed as solely from the coronavirus occurred in 6% of cases in the U.S. from Feb. 1 to Aug. 22, this doesn't mean that the virus was not a contributing factor or, indeed, the leading cause in the other 94%. The U.S. virus death toll would be much lower if this were the case. It's well established that people with underlying medical conditions are at increased risk of severe illness from COVID-19. "People can live with obesity, diabetes or heart disease for years but then get infected with COVID-19 and die quickly," CNN points out. For the record: For deaths with conditions or causes as well as COVID-19, on average, there were 2.6 additional conditions or causes per death, according to the CDC. The CDC reports the leading underlying medical conditions related to coronavirus deaths were: Influenza and pneumonia. Respiratory failure. Hypertensive disease. Diabetes. Vascular and unspecified dementia. Cardiac arrest. Heart failure. Renal failure. Intentional and unintentional injury, poisoning and other adverse events. Other medical conditions. By the numbers: In the U.S., more than 183,000 deaths have been attributed to the coronavirus as of Sunday night, per Johns Hopkins data. Almost 6 million have tested positive and over 2.2 million have recovered.
  14. He probably has a little old inch high private eye, and that is why he covers the cams LMAO 🤣 I would too if that was the case.
  15. I actually like Kitty and think she is very pretty, and I wished her mom would come around a little more often as i think her mother is hot and would love to see her get drunk with them again.
  16. Tease show extraordinaire, no substance
  17. Well the Mods are here and think this conservation is going south in a hurry. Opinions vary and debate is good as long as it remains respectful.
  18. A woman in a hot air balloon realizes she is lost. She lowers her altitude and spots a man fishing from a boat below. She shouts to him, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am." The man consults his portable GPS and replies, "You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2,346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude. She rolls her eyes and says, "You must be a Republican!" "I am," replies the man. "How did you know?" "Well," answers the balloonist, "everything you tell me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you're not much help to me." The man smiles and responds, "You must be a Democrat." "I am, replies the balloonist. "How did you know?" "Well," says the man, "You don't know where you are or where you're going. You've risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and now you expect me to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but, somehow, now it's my fault."
  19. Now think about this ? When I was a HS sophomore – decades ago! – my World History teacher was Mrs. Holloway, but we all called her Granny Holloway. She was a slight woman, scarcely 5 feet tall, seemingly fragile, but full of vim and vinegar….you know the type. She could speak for hours about the Fall of the Roman Empire, the Inquisition, the Industrial Revolution, and the World Wars. She never sat while she lectured, never stood at a lectern, but moved around the room making eye contact with all of her students. She was demanding too, and I can’t remember how many papers were sent back to me because she would note “you can do better than this, Miss Schaal.” One day during class, an office aid interrupted her lecture to hand her a note. She read it silently, apologized, and said she needed to leave the room. We knew it had to be important because Granny Holloway stopped lectures for no one. We sat in the room talking to one another when the door opened, and in walked Mrs. Abels, another teacher in our HS. She explained to us that Granny had been faced with an emergency, a serious one, and it was questionable if she would even be returning to finish out the semester. We were stunned. Would we get a chance to tell her goodbye? Would we get updates, so we would know she was ok? Mrs. Abels assured us that we need not worry, that Granny was safe but needed time away, and that the best thing we could do for her, and the best way we could show our devotion to her, was to be cooperative with her replacement. Mrs. Abels confirmed that she had been asked and had agreed to step in as Granny’s replacement. Cheer up, she told us, this could be a good thing. Other teachers still believed in endless homework and projects with deadlines and hard work. She would not bring that into our class. She believed in clean slates. If there were grades that we did not like, she could give us a chance to bring them up. She asked us what suggestions we had to make the semester a better learning experience. Someone mentioned that lectures were boring and we wanted more films. Done, she said. Someone else mentioned that a free day now and then would help us if we needed to catch up on work in other classes. She didn’t see a problem with that. She asked us how we felt about an end-of-semester party. Um, yeah, sounded very good to us. And on and on. Mrs. Abels listened intently and agreed to all of our suggestions, continually emphasizing that her concern was that we have a good learning experience and enjoy the semester. She also reminded us that we were lucky to not be sent out to other classes where we would be working to catch up, and that of course this was all for Granny. Near the end of the period, shortly before the bell rang, the door opened and Granny sauntered in with her usual Granny Holloway attitude. “How did they do?,” she asked. “Marvelous,” said Mrs. Abels. “They were completely in my hands.” Granny then faced us and said “And that, my students, is how a dictator takes over a nation. Not with guns or tanks or laws or mandates. They do it using a poster child and promises and gifts and protection from an enemy.” I can’t remember a lesson all through 12 years of public school that made such an impression on me, and has stayed with me.
