   In addition to this you may need to pause the machine in order for the buffering of files to catcxh up. You can see this actually happening in the bar at the bottom of the screen. It should only take 30 seconds or so then you can watch the complete film in one go.

   This actually happens on a lot of presentations not just this one.

   Good luck

   I’m a little confused – there is no “Plugins” option on the left nav (looks like it’s located right below Appearance). Is this because I’m not doing a self-hosted blog?

  Yes; plugins are not available on WordPress.com-hosted blogs, but Akismet is already running for you on WordPress.com. No configuration is needed.

   I have thousands of “spam” or “trash” entries. How can I delete them in bulk and not just in 20 message increments? Thanks,
