Answer 1

A few ways to do it, but one way is:

jQuery(document).ready(function(){ 
    var do_all_functions_running = false; 
    jQuery('a.slide_circ').click(function(){
        if (!do_all_functions_running) { 
            do_all_functions_running = true;
            do_all_functions();
            do_all_functions_running = false;
        }
        return false;   
    });  
});

Not perfect, but it'll work.
