Draw Electronic signature Form Myself

As a startup founder of three years myself, I can relate to how legal housekeeping can be messy. Once a year, I have our own lawyers go through and do an audit of all of our legal paperwork (which costs a couple thousand dollars to be extremely thorough, but it’s worth it). Luckily, there are now many ways to easily manage and track all of your legal, financial, and HR documents via third-party sites that specialize in these management proceedings. I wrote a blog post about this awhile back titled “5 Ways to Save Time Dealing With Documents” which highlights certain sites that can be very beneficial depending on what paperwork you’d like to track or manage. They are as follows:1. GroupDocsGroupDocs is a new, comprehensive online service for document creation and management. It has multiple features, including a viewer for reading documents in your browser, an electronic signature service, an online document converter, a document assembly service, a feature for comparing different versions of a document, and an annotation feature. An individual plan is $10 per month for limited storage and 500 documents, while a group plan for up to 9 people is $19 per user per month. Based on the number of features and pricing, GroupDoc is a good-value purchase for a small business. As you’ll see below, GroupDocs can be cheaper than a service that offers only one such feature.2. signNowWhen you’re closing a deal and need to get documents signed, the last thing you need is a slow turnaround due to fax machine problems or the postal service. The solution is to use an electronic signature service such as signNow, which is one of the most popular e-signature companies in the world. This service allows you to email your documents to the person whose signature you need. Next, the recipient undergoes a simply e-signing process, and then signNow alerts you when the process is completed. Finally, signNow electronically stores the documents, which are accessible at any time. As a result, you can easily track the progress of the signature process and create an audit trail of your documents. The “Professional” plan is recommended for sole proprietors and freelancers, and costs $180 per year ($15 per month) for up to 50 requested signatures per month. The “Workgroup” plan is geared towards teams and businesses, and it costs $240 per user per year ($20 per month per user), for unlimited requested signatures.3. signNowsignNow is another e-signature service. Similar to signNow, signNow allows you to upload a PDF file, MS Word file or web application document. Next, you can edit the document, such as by adding initials boxes or tabs, and then email them out for signatures. Once recipients e-sign the document, signNow notifies you and archives the document. signNow offers low rates for these services: a 1-person annual plan with unlimited document sending costs $11 per month. An annual plan for 10 senders with unlimited document sending costs only $39 per month.4. ExariExari is a document assembly and contract management service that assists in automating high-volume business documents, such as sales agreements or NDAs. First, the document assembly service allows authors to create automated document templates. No technical knowledge is required; most authors are business analysts and lawyers. Authors have a variety of options for customizing documents, such as fill-in-the-blank fields, optional clauses, and dynamic updating of topic headings. They also can add questions that the end user must answer. Once you send out the document, the user answers the questionnaire, and Exari uses that data to customize the document. Next, the contract management feature allows you to store and track both the templates and the signed documents. Pricing is based on the size and scope of your planned implementation, so visit their website for more information.5. FillanyPDFIt’s a hassle having to print out PDF forms in order to complete them. Fortunately, FillanyPDF is a service that allows you to edit, fill out and send any PDFs, while entirely online. This “Fill & Sign” plan costs $5 per month, or $50 per year. If you subscribe to the “Professional” plan, you can also create fillable PDFs using your own documents. With this service, any PDF, JPG or GIF file becomes fillable when you upload it to the site. You can modify a form using white-out, redaction and drawing tools. Then, you can email a link to your users, who can fill out and e-sign your form on the website. FillanyPDF also allows you to track who filled out your forms, and no downloads are necessary to access these services.  The “Professional” plan costs $49 per month, or $490 per year.Switching firms can be a hassle. As a former startup attorney, I have a bit of advice about finding the right attorney for your business: it’s best to focus on the specific attorney you’ll be working with. He or she should have a solid understanding of the ins and outs of your business industry, a deep knowledge of the legal issues your startup may face, and previous work experience with startups to ensure a quality and efficient work product. This is absolutely key when matching our startup clients at UpCounsel to attorneys on our platform who can perform their legal work and hash out their legal projects in a timely manner. We also allow clients to store any and all of their legal documents directly on UpCounsel so they don’t have to go searching in alternative places for the correct paperwork. It’s proven to be a free and lightweight way to store legal documents that our clients love. Here's what it looks like:As I’ve mentioned, it’s more important to find the right attorney as opposed to the right law firm. And seeing as you’re a startup, our own startup clients typically save an average of 50-60% on their legal work, since the attorneys don't include overhead fees (a.k.a. the fees included for doing business with the firm itself) in their invoices.Hope this gives you a deeper look into what other sites and services are out there. If you have any questions or would like more information on how best to handle your legal housekeeping/ attorney matters, feel free to signNow out to me directly. As a former startup attorney at Latham & Watkins, I’d be happy to give you some guidance.

The class would be known as the Superior class battleship thanks to input by Brayden Swanson named after the great lakes.The first ship would be known as the USS Superior, named after lake superior, because in my opinion it’s a very superior ship design. (yes, I say so myself, but I spent too much time on this so I’m proud of it. )So my design isn’t going to be your traditional big gun warship because at this point while big guns are great at gunfire support they lack the range to strike far inshore and are quite inaccurate designed to saturate entire map grids leaving nothing standing, but...

Approximately once every 10 minutes since January 3, 2009 at 18:15:05 UTC, one miner in the world has found/will find a valid Bitcoin block that meets the current difficulty requirements. When that happens, the block reward and the transaction fees will be distributed to the wallet(s) configured by that miner in that block. These two sources make up all of a miner’s income.Block rewards are the only way that new Bitcoins are min[t]ed. The block reward started at 50 BTC/block and halves every 210,000 blocks. This is why the current block reward is 12.5 BTC/block as of Sept 2017.Transaction fees for a block are the sum of the fees paid for all new transactions included in that block. For example, I might send you .5 BTC and specify a fee of .00004 BTC as incentive for miners to include that transaction in their block. The first miner to include that transaction in an accepted block will then earn that .00004 BTC in addition to the block reward and fees from other included transactions.Early on, transaction fees were a negligible source of miner income since there were very few transactions and the block reward was high. However, as the block reward diminishes and the number of transactions grows this trend will reverse and block rewards will become negligible and transaction fees will dominate earnings.Mining pools are another layer on top of this. Instead of the reward and fees going to a single miner, they instead have a number of miners pooling their efforts and splitting the rewards based on that pool's rules. In this way, if it would normally take you 10,000 years on average to find a block by yourself, you can instead join a mining pool and get small fractions of a block reward regularly based on your mining contribution and the pool's rules.Compare that to solo mining without a mining pool, where until you find a valid block you won't get a single Satoshi.

Long story, short: when proof of lacking ethics in major gaming publications was uncovered, a wall of false SJW victimhood was quickly constructed in order to hide behind and deflect any questions focusing on their corruption.Games were never cheap but their prices have gone up substantially recently. A complete game, which used to cost $40 in 2004 (or $53.50, if inflation corrected for 2018), today, by the time all the DLCs’ and Season Passes’ dust settles, will have set you back at least $150-$180. If the game is good, it could still offer you from 40 to over 100 hours of fun. If it is not good, however, this creates a real problem because returning a game is close to impossible. That is why accurate and honest game reviews are so important. And we always knew that something was not right with professional game reviews.It is not by mistake that so many big publisher games receive a far greater Metacritic score from professional reviewers than from actual gamers (while indie games receive the opposite treatment). In 2014 there was finally a smoking gun: professional gaming journalists and reviewers were caught in bed with game developers and their PR people. Both figuratively and literally. So, in order to cover up the stink, the spin-masters of the multi-Billion dollars industry quickly tried to masquerade this into a sexist harassment issue as a way to keep people from paying attention to the facts and, instead, focus on the staged “outrage”.PULLING ON A SMALL THREAD ENDS UP RIPPING THE CURTAIN:It all started with a female game developer having a string of affairs with some game journalists and publishers, which, of course would be no one’s business but their own. Oldest story in the world, anyone not directly involved would pay exactly zero attention. Only her (now former) boyfriend called them out very loudly and very publicly, by posting proof online. This made some people to take notice and realize that this was not just another case of serial infidelity but, in fact, it looked very much like the exchange of sexual favors in order to (allegedly) secure journalistic exposure and favorable reviews.The fuse was lit and the flame was starting eating its path towards the bomb. The Pied Pipers of the gaming Industry quickly realized that the mice were about to wake up on them. And they collectively tried to change their tune.THE PANIC DANCE AROUND THE LOOT PILE:The professional gaming press has cornered a very profitable niche market. And, besides direct advertising, it depends largely on early access and swag: all-paid trips to gaming conventions and press events with overly generous per diem; exclusive developing studio tours; special and collector’s editions of gaming paraphernalia as gifts that can be sold later at great profit; and, of course pre-release access to new games, because the early review gets the worm. If my competitors have access to the latest over-hyped games and I don’t, my readers will switch over in order to read their reviews on the latest triple-A title. And they will stay there. And if these incentives are not enough, good ol’ bribes rarely fail to deliver the desired reviews.Game publishers and developers have been known to secure favorable reviews for their products by reducing or closing the flow of the above. And they sure get their way: ten years ago, the Evil incArnate of the gaming industry (also known as EA) even had at least one gaming journalist fired for giving one of its games less than an enthusiastic review.So the lack of ethics was painfully real, the profits from such practices were very substantial and so any threat to them was decided to be met with an asymmetric response. As a first salvo, the most entrenched gaming press unleashed a coordinated name-calling attack against anyone who would dare question their “integrity”. It is never a good idea to indiscriminately insult your own audience but they did not stop there. Because next they called in a Rodeo Clown.It has been estimated that the money pile Jocker had amassed from Gotham City’s organized crime syndicates comprised of 6.3 Billion dollars. Well, the Gaming Industry brings in twenty times that amount every year, a growing market second only to China in size.FOLLOW THE CLOWN. FORGET THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN:Anita Sarkeesian is a professional feminist who, since 2007, kept raising thousands of dollars in order to produce SJW videos on YouTube, videos whose production value could be easily matched by 15 year olds on an allowance budget. She psignNowes her controversial politics to a very small, fringe minority and that is why most of her videos have both the comments and voting options disabled. Which is her prerogative, of course. In order to keep the funding coming, however, she kept inviting, instigating and fanning controversy as a way to receive free publicity which, then, tries to turn into more funding - and, when no such reaction could be elicited, she has even been accused of creating it herself. So, even though completely irrelevant to the GamerGate scandal, she was connivingly inserted into the mix.Admittedly she was never good at anything she tried her hand at except stirring up anger in anyone unlucky enough to be exposed to her intentionally inflammatory drivel. Yet that “talent” and her gender was exactly what the gaming press spin-doctors needed in order to change the narrative. By first cultivating and harvesting the angry backlash and then focusing solely on the unethical game developer’s and Sarkeesian’s gender, they tried to turn a story about a severe lack of journalistic ethics into a story of “two poor women under attack by the bad male gamers”. It was a ridiculous smoke screen. But they were not going to be alone in blowing it.THE LIBERAL ARTS MAJORS ARE UP TO BAT:It is no secret that the mainstream media suffer a severe pro-SJW bias. Even on issues they do understand, they tend to focus on the leftist regressive aspects of them - let alone on issues, such as gaming journalism, they care and know very little about. So, even if it was besides the point and it ignored 99% of the GamerGate story, from all of Kotaku’s sister sites (Gizmondo, LifeHacker, i09, Jalopnik, Gawker, Jezebel) to Network news and the Colbert Report (not to mention the Grade-A certified SoyBoy Canadian PM), the purple-haired crowd was triggered to come out en mass to reproduce a false narrative, and, in the process, managed to obfuscate the real issue threatening to be exposed: that gaming journalism is as corrupt as the political one.Now, the people generating the fake outrage may have never been gamers but a lot of women actually are. And they strongly objected to their gender been used so shamelessly to hide dishonest business practices behind - and that is how the secondary #NotYourShield movement got started.Ever since 2014 I have deleted my bookmarks of Polygon, Gamasutra, EuroGamer and, of course, Kotaku (and all its GAWKER tentacles) and never gave them a second thought. Not only are they totally unreliable sources of gaming (or any) information, but their problematic ethics will stop at nothing in order for them to keep getting away with it.

OP: Is paper a conductor?this is a question devoid of limits. Which definition of conductor is in view here? Which variety of paper?Normally, we can derive the intended meaning of words from the questioner, but Quora’s allowance for utterly anonymous questioners asking open-ended, bottomless, topless (gaps!) and wall/fence-free questions, devoid of context and with only the most barely, rarely, and often conflicting clues of spelling, rhetorical twang, or display of political bias to guess from. Here, we have a mere four words and raw punctuational inquisitiveness to proceed with.Paper, printed with appropriately (or inappropriately forged) official verbiage, signatures and stamps and seals, can be used to acquire transportation via any number of conveyances, barriers, borders, or impedimenta. Sadly, no such paper, acting as conductor, is available.It is claimed that Lully, that French Maistre de Musique, invented the Baton, thus creating the art of conducting music, with a staff which he pounded on the floor of rehearsal room and pit, to keep the Tactus and band’s attention. Supposedly, this idea was taken up by Haydn, who wisely chose to use a sheet of music paper, rolled, as an extension of his hand to lead the Esterhazy house orchestra, and thus also, by extension, allowing the paper to be considered a conductor with the same lazy rhetoric by which the ones who played violins became “violins” in common musical parlance… although this lingual use probably went unremarked in writing, and the modified practice did not come to M. Lully in time to save him from dying of cancer of the foot, a traumatic byproduct of occasionally missing the floor with his monstrous baton.The more recently coined usage of conductor has been used to identify the conduits for electrical charges as they move through a circuit. Failing that, many possible ways that paper could qualify as a conductor {If someone were to take reams of paper, make a 3D scanned model of, say, Leonard Bernstein as someone did with the Late Arthur Feidler, conductor for many years of the Boston Pops), then laboriously cut each sheet as a Horizonte slice of Bernstein’s body, then painstakingly lay sheet upon sheet, as the thicker rock slices, cut from Feidler’s model were for the statue between the parking lot and airlines building at Boston’s Logan are), would the paper become a conductor?} we are left to consider the wonderful, wild, and sometimes wacky world of electrical conductors.This peroration may seem excessive, but, really, can we do aught else in Quora, where restraint is placed on the answerers (although, it is not laid equally upon questioners) to be nice.The conductor conundrumin electricity, conductors are generally beefy columns of metal, stretched between power generating facilities and power consumption or distribution points. The columns are so long compared to their diameter that we treat them as wires or aggregated into bundles, call them cables. Since one metallic conductor is as willing to share its current with another if they should touch (or if the field potential is strong enough, without actually touching), wise electrical engineers employ something to separate them.To keep conductors separate, one needs an insulator, which can be as simple and direct as a hard vacuum, or as touchy-feelie as non-conducting materials in intimate contact with the conductors, but both thick enough and resistant to passing current as to keep crossing or neighboring conductors appropriately lonely. When formed around a wire, insulators are termed insulation, and their resistance (or, indeed, impedance) to current is measured in Ohms. In fairness, the harmonious or dullardly flow of electrons is the afore-named current, and it is measured in Amperes, both names being assigned to recognize the scientists whose work most revealed the machinations of the associated concept. To be complete, the field potential mentioned in the peroration is measured in Volts, named in the same manner for Volta, whose name apparently needed shortening.So, we have conductors which carry moving electrical charges, insulators which don’t, and potential differences by which we can keep track. All the voltage potential produced by a source is dropped in a circuit, so it is best in power transmission to ensure that conductors have very low resistance and insulators have extremely high resistance, so the current will flow in the conductors and not flow through the insulation, getting as much power to some kind of end-use system, which may be as simple as the filament if a light bulb, which is resistive enough to make light from the energy invested in the current as it passes through, to systems so complex that their workings are, to the common man, too close to magic to be considered seriously.for those who are brave (or have reread Harry Potter more than five times) we can summarize the whole of electrical engineering in a small subset of rules, laws, quid pro quo’s and outright lies as follows:We can point to one place, announce that it is ground (especially when it isn’t) and assign it the value of 0 volts, and insist in the face of logic, calculus and Electric Company audits that it never changes voltage, and get away with it!All applied voltage must be “consumed” as the current travels through the circuit. If one terminal of a two-terminal power source is connected to ground, the other will either be positive or negative, depending on how it is connected, we can quantities the value of the source in volts of differential, and as we go around the circuit formed by any number of components and connecting conductors, and derive the voltage at that point using information about current (Amps), resistance (Ohms), and really clever equations, or Houston’s stick the black lead of a voltmeter on the ground point, touch the read lead to each point, and read the voltage, which is actually quite a bit more clever, sometimes.Current can be computed by knowing the resistance of a component and the voltage across it, or read off the ammeter on the source, about which, remember the aside about clever in the previous point.Resistance can be laboriously calculated, knowing the bulk resistivity of the material, the length, thickness, and if not cylindrical, the various other dimensions, of the material. In Electricity, this is pretty simple, since most components are really long wires or cables and the equations are mostly simple ratios. (The really hard part is calculating how much wire is needed to go from one geographic point to another, since the cable is heavy, and suspended from poles, with a shape that is described as “catenary”, which term means “the shape of a heavy cable suspended between two points”.Electronics gets more complicated, but we don’t have to care when considering “is paper a conductor”.For a simple material with resistance R, current I, and voltage V across it, the following three equations tell all:[math]I=E/R[/math][math]R=E/I[/math][math]E=IxR[/math]hopefully that didn’t hurt too much.from these equations, we can draw useful concepts. Really, we can, I’m not making this up.Useful conceptsif a constant resistance is in a circuit, and the voltage across it increases, the current will increase, proportionally: double the V and the I doubles.if a constant resistance in a circuit has a changing current, the voltage across it will change, proportionally.if a variable resistance is in a circuit where the current is constrained to remain constant, the voltage across it will change with the change of its resistance, increasing resistance causing it to drop a greater voltage.§(these three concepts become obvious if you look at the equations. If, in the first equation, you hold R constant, increasing E will increase I, and vice versa, in the second, keeping current constant, increasing resistance must increase voltage, and vice versa. The third I’d a bit more tricksy; if the voltage always is the product of current and resistance, then increasing one of I or R will require the other to be reduced to keep the equation, and maintaining E at the same value. Each equation is the algebraic equivalent of the other two.)the § sign indicates one of those lies. I am completely glossing over things like voltage dividers (required to make the concepts true) and source resistance, and frankly weeks of other things taught in a formal course in Basic Electricity, and you aren’t sorry that I am.Now, this tends to make electricity look really simple, and so long as all the conductors are copper, or better still, gold, so wire resistance is so low that we can ignore the decimal places beyond the fourth for most things, it is. But that also means that insulators have to refuse to carry current with a faithfulness and consistency which few materials are willing to promise. Electrical Engineers learn these limits and keep them in mind, and we are now going to tread where angels fear to rush in.there are many ways that current can foil insulation, and many ways that insulation can foil any plan to keep current in its place.if you want to be sure that your current stays in its place, you can’t beat a good old vacuum. But a good vacuum, who can find one? [To do violence to Proverbs chapter 30]First, it is hard to make a good vacuum, and a perfect one is why the Varian family eats well. There is lots of vacuum in deep space… but that starts, really, some distance from the Oort Cloud surrounding our Solar system, And now, Science is just absolutely sure that even that space is stuffed full of Dark Matter! That’ll probably hold until next Tuesday, or the next time an astrophysicist gets indigestion.but, I hear you cry, if we can ignore wire resistance, surely we can ignore insulation current, if we use really good insulation, right?Wellllllll….. yeah….maybe.At what point do we say that an insulator isn’t an insulator anymore, or call paper a conductor?That is the hardest part of this question.And, lucky for us, science has some answers.But first, let’s take a long-overdue, realistic look at the definition of paper.What is paper?We didn’t always have paper to kick around. We used to inscribe writing on rock, trees, draw with paint on cave walls. At one point, we are assured that writing of a short term nature was eschewed altogether, with tallies being performed with pebbles in a bag, knots on a rope, all manner of ways to avoid having to invent paper at all. Then, the Phoenicians ruined it all, or maybe the Egyptians, or even the Algonquin or Iroquoi or maybe those Man Killers the Pequot, who, subdued by neighboring tribes and bodyswapped with the Mohegan, now reserve their evil to taking your money in Casinos.Either way, paper that we’d recognize today is a relatively recent invention (compared to the invention of evil, anyway). And your average modern paper-user is used to a variety and array of options that would have made your average Phoenician hang up the phone in amazement.We have paper made of the lignum, a natural stringy fiber derived from dissolving the adhesive out of trees, from cellulose derived chemically by processing cotton, from silk (you don’t even want to know where silk comes from), from artificial materials as simple as cellulose chemically formed from hydrocarbon molecules derived from oil, coal, or some madly grinning pot chemist with too many pots. The number of paper compositions exceed the number of uses, and the characteristics of the resulting sheets are mind boggling.Up until recently, dry paper was considered the ideal insulator. That paper was probably a standard tree lignite paper, unbleached, like what was still called butcher paper when I was a kid, some 55years ago.bHowever, as recent research has revealed, natural fibers like lignite and cellulose have conductive paths built in which aren’t ‘fixed’ by beating, forming, dissolution of the wood’s adhesive matrix, or washing. What did control the conductive properties of paper, then, was the relative humidity of the surrounding air, so most electrical components for which paper was used as an insulating form was sealed with a waterproofing agent. Making that paper more conductive (which still left it with resistance on the order of hundreds of thousands of Ohms per square centimeter (0.1–1.0 meg Ohms/cm^2), while dry paper Exhibited resistance more on the order of tens-of-megohms/cm^2).That simple cellulose paper can be found today, but it was formally supplanted for ‘civilized’ use by papers with recycled rag content, or made by less natural means from oil-based precursors. The bleaching reduces the resistivity, and without post processing, such papers can become as conductive as 20 Ohms/cm^2. Lamination of all kinds of sheet and roll stock is now common, allowing layers of insulating plastic, mildly conducting conductive-material impregnated plastics and conductive metal foils. Even low-conductance dry unbleached papers can be made conductive in post processing, using various formulas of conductive ink, in one case, available in fiber-tipped pens much like the permanent ink markers of the 60s, the highlighters of the last fourth years, etc. Conductive inks for common press work, inkjet printer use, and brush painting which absorb into the paper and permit electronic circuits to be constructed using conductive adhesives and standard surface mount components are revolutionizing the greeting card industry, and if I get another scratchy-voiced, shrieking birthday card telling me I’m an old fart, I may start a CounterRevolution myself…. well, you get the idea.This raises another question: when the conductive layer becomes part of the paper’s matrix, is the paper overall conductive, even though other portions aren’t? We never called Printed Circuit board “conductive”, because the laminated copper layer didn’t infiltrate the insulating and supporting Fiberglas or plastic layer, even when thirteen layers of each were interconnected with bias and glued and pressed together to create multilayer boards.So, as you can see, there is nothing uncomplicated about the simple question, “is paper conductor”, even though, if a fit of restraint, I have omitted decades of history, petabytes of data, philosophical and scientific papers addressing both the insulative and conductive characteristics of standard stock papers, beautiful papers, holographic imprint, and photographically coated papers, all of which could be wholly, partially, or emphatically not conductive, and didn’t even mention that pure cellulose papers used in electrical fields of tens of thousands of volts to spread genetic materials for analysis are non-conductive for filtering coffee…Sometimes things are hard to answer exactly.
