wazer replied to wazer's topic in Issues & bug reportingAlright well it does not work that way right now.
wazer replied to wazer's topic in Issues & bug reportingYes autoaim indication+. However isnt that silly? why press it twice, seems like a really dumb way to announce to your teammates that you are reloading, I tried it and it usually failed pressing double twice. Because either way it will work asa you say or not, and if it does not work you cannot announce anything for 5 seconds. I would rather suggest Autoloaders Press c once, DONT reload and announce shells left. Press c twice, reload and announce reload, but dont announce shells left if reloading. This can be fixed by checking if reloading or announce shells and then set a wait timer for 500-750ms to check before announcing. Normal: Press C Announce & reload
wazer posted a topic in Issues & bug reportingSo whenever I'm playing any autoloader or my batchat and I still have some rounds left lets say 2 or 3, and the hit C it will announce how many shells instead of saying reloading. Sometimes the reload appears too, but mostly it just says shells left and then it gives a warning about chat spam, this worked perfect in 9.16 but eversince 9.17 it has become bugged more or less.
wazer replied to wazer's topic in Issues & bug reportingI know that but NOT when selecting what I just said. Sessions statictics and battle results messages [EN, PL] is sometimes broken when getting out from game and not converting battle results window.
wazer replied to wazer's topic in Issues & bug reportingNo sorry It worked fine here when tested. However what is not working fine is the Tank lights (Turn of the sun + Night sky) mod In rare scenarios you will get white screen depending on what way you look around, you will get a totally white screen. I searched a bit on google and found other webpage where others complain about it, screenshot. Fix is to toggle the sun with the hotkey which is normally ctrl+f12 for now Also can you please not remove saved selection of Display Results from previous battle (EN,PL,RU) [PMOD] When only selecting YasenKrasen sessions stats v1 [EN, PL] - This works fine and is better detailed information than Sessions statictics and battle results messages [EN, PL]
wazer replied to wazer's topic in Issues & bug reportingWhat about this one? I tested works? https://github.com/Aimdrol/MLG-Hitmarker Found it in http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/476721-0917-gtos-mlg-mod-continued-by-aimdrol-marks-of-mailand-pl/

Scenes from a Slow-Moving Train
I'm traveling to New York City to begin the mayhem that is AWP. Just a few quick thoughts while in transit.
I've gotten the impression from a few blogs that if you're a recognizable poet, attending an AWP conference is a necessary evil. It's good to see and be seen. If you're established, everyone wants something from you: an autograph, the meaning of life, how to get published, etc. I think most well-published poets enjoy visiting with their peers and hearing from "fans" most of the time. But it's almost like a task instead of a fun few days. Too bad for them.
Me? I enjoy being a fan of poets and poetry in venues like this. Similar to the Dodge Festival (but on a lesser scale), the poets are really accessible. You can be in a session and ask a poet whom you've read for years what it was like to write a particular poem. No one knows me, so I can lurk and gawk and gush all I want—and post about it later.
Unfortunately, I won't have a chance to respond to your posts this week.But keep posting—I read them all. Photos tomorrow.
Tonight, I'm off to the Cave Canem fundraiser. Here are the details:
2nd Annual Cave Canem Fellows Reading
The Bowery Poetry Club, 308 Bowery, New York, New York
$10 cover charge.
Fellows Michelle Berry, DeLana Dameron, Jacqueline Johnson, LaTasha Nevada Diggs, Krista Franklin, Rachel Eliza Griffiths, Richard Hamilton; Myronn Hardy, Randall Horton, Marcus Jackson, Amanda Johnston, Jacqueline Jones LaMon, January O'Neil, Ernesto Mercer, Dante Micheaux, Indigo Moor, Nicole Sealey, Shia Shabazz, Evie Shockley, and Bianca Spriggs take a poetry marathon to New York City's literary hot spot!
A piece of good news: Crab Orchard Review accepted one of my poems! Now that's how you kick off the AWP, baby!
More on Thursday.

Confession Tuesday
So many confessions … so little time! Be sure to let me or Carolee know about your confessions.
Goodnight Mom has hers up on her blog.
Here we go:
- AWP. AWP. AWP. I'm looking forward to this on so many levels, but none more important than I need a break from my kids. I love them dearly, and when I think about missing out on days and days of kisses I well up with tears. HOWEVER, parenting is hard, and sometimes it's best for all to step back and recharge those batteries.
- My husband and I now have this ritual where one of us makes tea for the other before we climb into bed together. I'll definitely miss that!
- I owe him big time for letting me have this time away.
- Back to AWP, I believe this is my fourth conference. I've always learned a lot from attending sessions, talking with fellow poets, and milling around the book fair for new publications. But having a book deal takes things to a whole 'nother level (my husband HATES that phrase). I feel like I have a seat at the poetry table, so to speak.
- That's not to say that I wouldn't have a good time if I didn't have a book in the works. It's just a different experience for me.
- I'll be staying with Joseph Legaspi, which is half the fun right there.
- The one must-do thing while in NYC is to go dancing. Don't want to go clubbing. But if I can find a retro bar that plays Rob Base's "It Takes Two" and Young MC's "Bust a Move," STAND BACK! I'm breaking out the Wop!
- And while all of this is great, I'm a bit mournful because I will be there without my dear friend Phebus Etienne. She passed away last year, and the last time I saw her was at the Atlanta AWP conference in March. 2008 should have been her year, not mine.
- Go PATS!!!

AWP Countdown
I'm quite dizzy with anticipation about the AWP Conference. One of my goals is to glean as much insight on what's going on within the poetry industry. We never talk about poetry as a business or an industry, but AWP is a good place to have those conversations.
In trying to be an advocate for my book, I've been thinking long and hard about this huge disconnect I see between the number of poets writing today vs. book sales. I can't tell if we're part of a dying art or experiencing a revival. I mean, the number of creative writing programs has exploded during the past 30 years. There are more ways to get our work out there than ever before: more small presses, contests, journals, Web zines, community projects, spoken word venues, open mics, and blogs. Even state and city poet laureateships are on the rise, for better or worse. So why aren't we selling more books? Why are we still this low-profit (practically no-profit) industry? And please tell me where are all the women poets?
I've always believed that the pobiz sustains itself because the poetry readers are its writers, so it will never go away but never grow. Doesn't matter how many Pulitzers a poet wins or how many genius grants are given, we just haven't figured out a way to get our books into mainstream channels. I'm waiting for that high tide to raise all boats. If there are success stories, we don't hear about them--we're terrible about sharing knowledge within the community.
I really started to go off on this post but deleted most of it because, really, I don't have any answers. And anytime I start talking about the inequities in poetry, the hairs stand up on the back of my neck.
This AWP Conference is the largest, and the first time it's sold out with 7,500 people attending—with an ungodly amount of off-site events open to the public. Hope you'll come back later in the week to this blog for photos and posts from the conference.
And, if you send a question I'll try to get you an answer.

Stretched Thin
My like my husband's damaged ACL, which will require surgery in a few weeks (*sigh*), I am stretched a little thin right now. Between tweaking the manuscript and the upcoming AWP conference, I haven't been able to write a poem, nor have I wanted to.
Ideally I like to start a poem early in the week and post it on Thursday. But this month's poems I have written and posted within a few hours. So I may attempt to write one this weekend, or wait and write a poem on my train ride down to NYC (no Fung Wah for me this year!). However, I'm kinda looking forward to taking a mini-break. Needless to say, my blog posts will be sporadic over the next few days.
To my I Promise Blogroll partners in crime, I'll visit everyone today.
And starting next Thursday, I'll bring you as many of the sights and sounds of the AWP Conference as my little laptop will allow.

For all of you Law & Order Fans out there, enjoy!
Hope the writers' strike ends soon.

Confession Tuesday
If you're participating, let me and Carolee know.
- As the country honored MLK Jr., I went to Starbucks. It's not unusual for me to come once a week as my time away from the kids. But yesterday the place was overrun by college students and moms with their kids. Not a very good place to reflect and remember.
- I did wonder how many people thought of Monday as a day off vs. remembering Dr. King. Not a judgement—just a thought.
- Last night I watched most of the democratic debate in SC. Talk about contentious! I was so riveted by the discussion I was afraid to move from the TV for fear I'd miss something. It's clear that all three candidates are passionate about serving this country. And while I'm a Hillary supporter, I'd support one of the other candidates if they receive the party's nomination.
- Pats. Super Bowl. 18-0. Need I say more?
- The kids start a new day care today. While we're sad to leave behind the old day care, this one should keep them happy and safe. So now we can start getting our routines back on track.
- Beginning to read Zami by Audre Lorde. Fascinating.
- AWP. January 30. Need I say more?
- Oh my goodness … the Oscar nominations came out and I forgot to watch them. Drat. Must look over the list. More later.

Remembering MLK Jr.
I took this photo last year at The King Center in Atlanta. My friend, Phebus, and I visited the center during the AWP conference.
Many in the media are reminding the viewers to think of this holiday as "a day on" as opposed to a day off. Even as I reflect, I don't have a good sense what my parents, who lived in the Deep South back then, when through. I mean, I've never been refused entry anywhere. I've never sat at a separate lunch counter, used separate water fountains, or used bathrooms marked "For Colored Only." But I am a beneficiary of the marches, the protests, the speeches. I am--we all are--the beneficiaries of the King legacy.
I am one-generation removed from the Civil Rights Movement. My kids will be second-generation removed. It is my hope that one day I will be able to find the words to explain how we got here. I want to show them how words have actions, and how ideas can create change. And how one man had a vision.
The democratic presidents candidates have been invoking King's memory quite a bit leading up to tonight's debate. I can only hope that King would be pleased that we are in the position to have a viable black candidate and a formatable woman candidate on the ticket. So on this day, I'm am flooded with thoughts of the future, while looking back at our country's difficult past.
Because we all are the beneficiaries of the King legacy, let this day, and every day hereafter, be "a day on."

Any Thoughts?
So what's the deal? Why do the mainstream media hardly ever do articles or reviews about women poets? It is often hard to find ANY article to link to.
Are there more men poets than women poets? (When I got my MFA, the poetry students were mostly women.) Are men poets simply better poets than women poets? More interesting? Better at self-promotion maybe? Do articles in which the subject has a penis make for increased sales or something? Are men poets more likely to get published by a large press? What? Is? The? Deal? Here?
My response ... I have no clue. And like Jilly, most of the poets in my MFA program (at NYU) were women. What is it about the pobiz that is resistant to change? Maybe we should start more journals and online projects, write more reviews, and broker better publishing deals, because if things are going to change, it has to happen from the inside out.
Conversely, in 2007, four major poetry awards were given to African American women.
Thanks to Jilly for posting about the topic.
Sunday Scribblings: Fellow Travelers
Here, I can enjoy your stories, the honest, slice-of-life stories written by everyday people—imaginative, creative, passionate, bizarre, mad-as-hell, I'm-too-fat, I'm-too-thin, look-at-my-baby people. You don't need a book contract to construct an interesting blog post. For a space so immense, it feels very local. Yet this is a shared space where we tend to say the things we wouldn't say to a loved one, friend, or coworker.
What is it about the blogosphere that keeps us coming back? I've said it before and I'll say it again: we read it for the "unsaid." Every time I post something, the subtext is saying, "I don't know you, but here I am and I'm sharing this piece of my life with you. Please read." And the writing. Let's not forget the good writing that makes me, as a reader, care about the small stuff: a list of songs from your iPod; mourning the end of a season; mourning the loss of a friend; how you'd sometimes like to run away from home—and the places you'd end up. We can forgive the typos and the poorly constructed sentences for a good story. I don't come here for a lesson in grammar.
Tonight … eh … today, I come here because I can't sleep—and all that's on is Death Wish II and an ungodly amount of infomercials. I come here with this need to reveal something about myself, maybe because I spend every waking part of my day keeping something for myself. Now, I come because of Sunday Scribblings: this wonderful community of bloggers that has something to say about being a fellow traveler. I can't wait to read your stories.

New Poem
I've been thinking about love,
old love. Not "sunshine on a cloudy day"
love, or love like a Nor'easter,
with its thunder crack that splits
the heart wide open, snaps
its flag back and forth
in a mean wind,
but love at rest
because the days are too short
and the sky pulls
its grey flannel blanket over us,
while the occasional snowflakes
fall like displaced stars
resting on the window
of the skin. Meanwhile,
the yard dreams of spring thaw:
the ground filled with unbroken buds,
and enough love to save us all.

Confession Tuesday
So Carolee and I are making these Confession Tuesdays a "thing." If you're interested in confessing whatever it is you feel like confessing, let us know. Go to Carolee's blog and leave us a note. The purpose is to spark the creative process, or, in my case, unclutter the mind. If you decide to revisit your confessions for a poem or an essay, let us know.
Blah Blah Blah … here we go:
- The snow day on Monday gave me a chance to catch up on some outstanding pobiz stuff I've been working on. Things I didn't have to think about when writing the book: cover art, back-cover blurbs, book readings. It's all very fun and very scary. Be careful what you wish for.
- Anyone keeping up with politics? On the Dems side, I'm a little sick of the race discussion. Hillary's comments were taken out of context. I'm even more tired of the media keeping the discussion alive. The candidates want to debate the issues, so let them have at it. Tonight's debate on MSNBC should be issues-based with Tim Russert around. As for the Republicans, I don't think we'll have a clear frontrunner until after "Super Duper Tuesday" on February 5.
- I love politics. I think it can be one of the noblest professions to undertake. Wish it was my calling, but alas, I am a poet. That's my calling.
- My other calling is to motherhood. My kids are goofy. That's not really a confession—just a fact.
- Anyone who says that it doesn't take a village to raise a child obviously does not have kids. We've been looking for a home-based day care provider for Alex and Ella for weeks. This process takes time. I get it—we just can't leave them with anyone. I hope we find a solution soon because the process is draining and disruptive to our work schedules.
- I just had an "everything" bagel, and even after brushing I have a terrible onion/garlic breath. Sorry coworkers.

The Way I See It
~Former U.S. Secretary of State Madeline Albright.
A little Starbucks wisdom. This is a famous quote by the former Madame Secretary, but I didn't know about it until I bought a tall hot chocolate. Unfortunately I didn't get the series number off of the cup.
Not Your Father's Self-Published Book
I think it's a good lesson for all authors--be proactive with your manuscripts, from gestation to marketing to building industry relationships to the finished product. No one will nurture your project more than you. And don't take no for an answer.
Here's the story in The Boston Globe.

Sunday Scribblings: The Date
When I think of what is happening in the world today, specifically what happened on this date, January 12, 2008, some of the news stories are simply inexplicable.
Was there any good news? If so, please tell me. These some of the headlines on CNN.com:
- Arrest warrant issued in death of pregnant Marine
- Body found of kid thrown off bridge
- Autopsy: Figure skating star's death a mystery
- Hiker's death casts light toward other cases
- Misbehaving kids dumped at fire station
- Father sought in girls' deaths
Again, where was all the good news today? Even my local news was plagued with stories of abuse, accidental deaths, child abuse, foreclosures, and immediate layoffs for teachers.
Please, share some good news from your corner of the world.
New Poem
Praise our scars,
the small gashes
and the long,
serpentine tracks
that make up
our unbeauty.
Scar, from the
Greek word eschara,
meaning place of fire.
This is the body's politic,
reminding us that
the past existed.
Inside, what is tender
is retreaded by our living,
by wounds in the sidewalks
of dry skin. Never once
do we question
the sinkholes our bodies
drive into and repair
day after day.
No one but our
doctors and lovers
can read the map
to our hurting.

Creating a PAP
It's not what you think—no medical test involved!
This is my new term for 2008, a Poetry Action Plan, or PAP for short. I'm at a point where I need to start thinking strategically about getting my poems into mainstream poetry channels. So for now, consider this an enhanced version of my to-do list. Much of what I do here will morph into a marketing plan for my book.
January 2008 PAP
- Write a poem, and visit my I Promise blogsters. (Ugh—It's been a long week. Still, no excuse for bagging out on Thursday.)
- Continue to write a poem a week.
- Send out poems to two publishers/journals. During the past four months, I've sent out poems to 10 journals, and received five rejections. So now it's time to get on the bandwagon again and start sending out again. Ugh.
- Enter the "Discovery"/Boston Review Poetry Contest. Normally, I don't enter contests. But I have a good feeling about this one. Of course, I usually have the same good feeling when I buy a lottery ticket. *sigh*
- Write an article for two Web sites. This one has been hanging around for a while.
- Set up readings in the Boston/Cambridge area. This is new territory for me. I mean, I've never been this proactive about contacting venues and networking on my behalf.
- Get ready for AWP. I'm really looking forward to meeting many poets and writers from the blogosphere. And, it will be nice to reconnect with Cave Canem and Kundiman fellows. At least this year I feel I have a new story to tell.
- Pick dates for upcoming New & Emerging Writers Series (NEWS) readings.
I still have trouble reconciling the fact that poetry is a business, and if I want get my poetry out there, I have to work for it. But I enjoy putting my marketing skills toward something as worthwhile as poetry.
So, do you have goals for your creative projects? If so, please share.

2nd Annual Cave Canem Fellows Reading
Wed. Jan. 30, 2008 - 10 p.m.
2nd Annual Cave Canem Fellows Reading
The Bowery Poetry Club
308 Bowery
New York, New York
$10 cover charge.
Fellows Michelle Berry, DeLana Dameron, Jacqueline Johnson, LaTasha Nevada Diggs, Krista Franklin, Rachel Eliza Griffiths, Richard Hamilton; Myronn Hardy, Randall Horton, Marcus Jackson, Amanda Johnston, Jacqueline Jones LaMon, January O'Neil, Ernesto Mercer, Dante Micheaux, Indigo Moor, Nicole Sealey, Shia Shabazz, Evie Shockley, and Bianca Spriggs take a poetry marathon to New York City's literary hot spot!
Reading at Cafe Azteca
The reading was held at Café Azteca, with its walls decorated with brightly colored murals. Also, each mural had a bit of verse from a well-known poet or writer.
I think for an audience to come out and support poetry in this day and age, you really have to have advocates. It also helped that it was nearly 60 degrees last night. The Frost Foundation and the Eagle Tribune/Salem News continually remind the community that poetry matters, and that it is worth supporting. So I owe big debt of thanks to Mark Schorr, in particular, for asking me to read.
(Mark Schorr)
(Ray Landry)
This was my first time as a featured speaker, an honor I took very seriously. I mean, since I'm not a particularly strong public speaker, I was very conscious of not making mistakes or not talking to much between poems, and very aware of the audience's reactions.
My husband, Tim, came with me for support (a rare night out as a couple!), yet his observations will influence how I approach reading poetry in the future. For instance, I had one poem that broke the mood because of where it was placed. The poem was about abuse, yet because I put it in the middle of a group of family poems, it was disruptive to the flow. All in all, I couldn't have been happier with my performance (no other critic is tougher of herself than me).
The crowd was generous with their kind words and applause, and I was certainly humbled by the experience.

Confession Tuesday
The article in The Salem News was a pleasant surprise. And now I'm focused on using this great press to connect with other venues in the Boston area and connecting with other area writers. This is an exciting time and I feel more energized about poetry than ever!
At the end of the month, I'll attend the AWP conference in NYC. I'm really looking forward to this trip, not only because it's a great opportunity to be in the heart of the poetry community, but I'll spend some much needed me-time with friends talking about poetry, and eating and drinking in a city I love.
Cannot believe the New Hampshire primary is here. I'm a Hillary supporter, but, quite frankly, I could be happy with any of the democrats.
Saw the movie Juno over the weekend. Excellent film--I highly recommend it. Funny, but I could relate more to the yuppie couple of Jason Bateman and Jennifer Garner than the semi-cool kids in Juno's high school.
It's supposed to get to 60 degrees today. Finally, a break from the single-digit temps of late.
Is it too early to eat chocolate pudding? I mean, it must be noon somewhere in the world.

The "7 Things" List
1. A poem is not hard to understand. That doesn't mean a poem can't or shouldn't be difficult. If it was easy, then everyone would be reading poetry. And I don't think that's what we want—a mediocre, watered-down art form. You have to work through a poem, but the payoff is usually worth it.
2. Poetry is the worst-selling genre of book on the market today, which is unfortunate because poetry is valuable and important to so many people.
3. Despite evidence to the contrary, poetry is thriving. You can see it with all sorts of hybrid MFA programs, self-publishing opportunities, independent publishers, and online communities and zines
4. Poems start long before the words hit the page. You think we're listing to conversations, but we're really looking for a stray line or phrase to kick-start our work.
5. After poetry readings, poets appreciate a kind word. I mean, they're putting themselves out to you for approval, so it's worth it to walk up after and say, "I really enjoyed your work."
6. Poets don't sit around in dark coffee houses in black turtlenecks and berets smoking clove cigarettes snapping their fingers instead of applauding. That's one myth I would like to break right now.
7. There's no money in poetry. But again, if you work hard, the payoff, which is not always financial, is worth it.

New Poem
A note about this very new piece. It's a Southern tradition to eat black-eyed peas on New Year's Day. Also, the first person to entry your house on January should be male. What can I say--it's a tradition.
Simmers and spits in a pot on the stove.
January 1 and black-eyed peas seasoned
with hambone, onions, salt, and pepper
calls all souls to the table. My mother
slaves in the kitchen. On this day,
when being black does not reflect
the absence of something,
some traditions taste too good to forget.
Contained in Tupperware,
my father takes some
through his best friend's doorway—
the first male to enter. Then they'll return
to our house and grace our door. This is sure to bring
good fortune, cold beer, a lawd have mercy
followed by a laughter that starts
in the soul and works it way out,
a laughter that echos in the heart
from something intangible and starved,
until the only thing left to do is fix yourself a bowl.
Plate me up some of those peas
with grits and collards greens, says dad.
He leads us in prayer: Thank you for this fortunate meal.
Spoken by the god of new beginnings.

And Happy New Year!
This photo is the cover of my new 2008 Engagement Calendar by Anne Taintor. Picked it up at my local B&N. It's full of subversive, snide little comments set against the backdrop of 1950s Leave-It-To-Beaver-type images. I've been waiting to use it for months.
The phrase in the picture describes how I feel today. Had a great time with the family at home last night with a New Years party that ended at 8:30 p.m. Today I get out the calendar only to find that my youngest used it as a coloring book. Damn. I resent that the kids think everything in the house is theirs. I know they're kids, and they're learning, but I really like having a few items in the house that are just for me.
Did manage to get to Starbucks this afternoon to make a poetry plan for the week. I also read through the latest issues of P&W and APR, as well as start a new poem.
While I love my job, I'm not looking forward to going to work tomorrow.
While I love my kids, I'm looking forward to going to work tomorrow.
Those close to me tell me I'm fickle.
Hope you enjoyed the holiday. Looking forward to visiting many blogs during the week.

Video: Kendrick Perkins tries to pop finger back into place after dislocating it
The Oklahoma City Thunder officially began its 2013 preseason schedule on Saturday by playing Fenerbahce Ulker in Istanbul as part of the Global Games.
Unfortunately, Thunder forward Kendrick Perkins was forced to leave the game in the first half, joining fellow starter Russell Westbrook on the injury list.
Perkins dislocated a finger while battling for a rebound, and as seen in the video clip above, he did his best to fix it himself. He was apparently unsuccessful, however, as Perkins didn't start the second half. Instead, rookie Steven Adams got the nod in his place.
Fortunately, Perkins doesn't expect to miss too much time because of the injury.

The United States is pledging 364 million dollars in additional humanitarian aid to Syrians affected in the ongoing civil war.
The aid is intended for Syrians both within the country and in neighbouring countries hosting refugees. It is to be used for food, shelter, safe drinking water, medical care and other urgent help, says Anne Richard, assistant secretary of state for population, refugees and migration.
"Faced with the unprecedented scale of tragedy and human suffering that Syrians have endured for more than five years and continue to endure today, this announcement reflects the immense generosity of the American people," Richard says.
The pledge brings the total amount of US humanitarian assistance in response to the conflict to 5.9 billion dollars.

Geelong midfielder Allen Christensen is seeking an AFL trade and preliminary talks have been held with Brisbane.
Geelong said on Wednesday 23-year-old Christensen had expressed a desire to continue his career elsewhere for "non-football reasons" and the club was considering their position.
Christensen's manager Tim Hazell released a statement confirming he wants to move.
"It is decision taken purely for personal reasons," said Hazell. "He simply feels that at 23 he wants a fresh start to his football elsewhere. We will work through this process with the club in the hope of securing an outcome satisfactory to both parties."
Brisbane chief executive Greg Swann told AFL Trade Radio that the Lions had preliminary discussions about securing Christensen.
"If he's keen, we're very, very interested," Swann said.
"We haven't got all of the details. He (Christensen's manager) rang Peter Schwab, suggested he might want to come north."
Gold Coast could be in the mix to secure Christensen as it has picks eight and 15 up its sleeve.
But the club's list manager Scott Clayton said that "out of respect for Geelong", the Suns would wait for the club to consider its options before commenting further.
"Clearly the market was surprised at Allen's request," Clayton said.
"Out of respect to Geelong, we will wait for them to consider their options before we settle on a position or make further comment."
Christensen is considered one of Geelong's most promising young players.
Former Cat Cameron Mooney told radio station SEN that Geelong was "trying everything, I'm pretty sure, to keep him".
But Mooney said it was looking "likely" that Christensen would leave the club.
"He is a huge loss," Mooney said.
The former Cats forward said Geelong had known about Christensen's wish to leave the club for a couple of days.
The club was disappointed not only to lose such a good player, but also because with the news coming so late, they had missed out on early trade period moves.
He played eight games in 2014 after returning from back surgery and has played 65 games for the Cats in total, including the 2011 grand final win over Collingwood.

At a glance:
- The hair surprise
- The mucus plug
- The nesting Instinct
What's happening to your baby
Her vital stats? She weighs 6 1/3 pounds and measures a bit over 19 inches, head to heel. But, if she's born now and has different colour hair to both of you don't freak. It's perfectly normal for dark haired couples to have a baby emerge with blonde or red hair, or fair-haired parents to have a little one with a dark mop to rival Harry Styles'. Alternatively, your baby could be a baldy and just have a fine peachy down.
What's happening to you
If you go into labour now, you might feel crampy – a bit like you're getting your period. You'll also pass your mucus plug – it'll either come out all at once in a lump, or you'll get increased vaginal discharge over a few days. It might have brown, pink or red blood in it, especially if you've had sex, which is still perfectly safe at this stage. It's because your cervix is softening in readiness for labour. If you're worried at all about any discharge or bleeding that doesn't seem normal, speak to your doctor urgently. And if your waters break before your contractions have started, then you'll be induced if they don't start soon after to reduce the risk of infection. So whether your waters come out in out in a trickle or full flow, you must call your doctor or midwife.
Labour Signs: The Early Ones You Need To Look Out For
6 Ways To Increase Your Chances Of Having A Quick Birth
The nesting instinct
From scrubbing the grouting in your bathroom with a toothbrush, to rearranging every item in your kitchen cupboard in size order, or even dismantling door handles so you can disinfect the screws – when this instinct hits you, nothing will stand in your way. Not even a bewildered partner. Essentially, it's a primal need to prepare a 'nest' for the new baby, and organise your world.
Although of course it's not harmful to spend your days cleaning (if you must!) there's some things you should be aware of first. If you've got the urge to redecorate, then stay away from oil based paints, old paint that may contain lead and some latex paints that contain mercury. Most water-based ones can be used but always check the label and wear protective clothes/gloves. Fancy disinfecting your house top to bottom? Check the safety of the products you're using eg: avoid oven cleaners and dry cleaning products, and never mix ammonia with chlorine-based products i.e. bleach or cleanser – the combination produces toxic fumes.
Wear rubber gloves when cleaning and try not to breathe strong fumes. And if you have a cat then use gloves to clean the litter box, or get someone else to do it while you're pregnant. Cat faeces can cause toxoplasmosis (a rare, very serious blood infection that can cause birth defects). And it might be a good idea to stay away from gardening if your cat goes to the loo outside, or you know neighbourhood moggies use it as a poo-stop. Read more tips here.

chicago logs 500 shootings this year
and that's because of the most stringent gun restrictions in the country.
Wow! Gun control works great.
Especially if you're a criminal. Why don't they ban drugs while they're at it. Oh wait.......
How do these people get guns if they are banned. Doesn't a ban mean that no one can them?
That's how Feinswine's gun control will work; law abiding citizens comply, bad guys don't.
And the left doesn't have the nads to go to war against the bad guys - not when the law-abiding citizenry is the low-hanging fruit.
A model AWB city, they rate high on someone's list!
They are placing a $25 dollar fee on all gun sales. This is to help pay for gun related cost to the city. The legal buyers of firearms are not adding to these cost. The gang and drug dealers are killing each other with stolen firearms. But the Liberals will punish the citizen every time.
The Gary Gun Buyback program starts today.
$50 walmart gift cards for pistols and shotguns
$100 walmart gift cards for "assault weapons"
(and there is an existing AWB in cook county:rolleyes:)
another interesting tidbit that doesn't get reported by the news, but only mentioned on a blog by active police officers-Chief of Police Gary McCarthy apparently requested notice of any shooting victims whose life support would be pulled by family members as it would be affecting the now 500+ murder count as if he could insist they keep them on life support until next year so as not to continue pushing his embarrassing body count upwards in 2012. How appalling is that?
Criminals love gun control

Dr. G. Patrick
Dr. Patrick is an excellent clinician with a compassionate ,helpful,knowledge based practice ,focused on positive outcomes and patient care . With patient satisfaction and overall improved health/ comfort his focus. He is definitely hands on and unlike other Drs. who rely heavily on their ancillary staff to do routine tasks ,he is the caregiver which I greatly admire. His staff are great and provide traditional support . It is nice to be treated by a physician with great ethics and a great personality!

Great specialist
My first impression was that Dr. Patrick was going to be stern & bland which I hate in a doctor. Thankfully, I was incorrect. He asked me questions that weren't just read from a clipboard. He talked TO me not At me. He even made a few humorous comments. He eliminated my need for an oxygen feed overnight and diagnosed me with asthma as opposed to the COPD diagnosis I was previously given elsewhere. That was two years ago & I feel great.

Excellent Caring Doctor
Approximately 14 years ago, an x-ray showed a mass on my lung. My primary care physician recommended Dr. Patrick. When he came into the room, he immediately sat down and talked to me. He said he could feel my fear. He told me into the hall to show me the x-rays and said that I had this mass three years ago and there is very little if any change, so it did not think it was cancer. He said that I would need a biopsy to confirm what it was. He thought it was Sarcondosis. He was very concerned about the location of the mass. The first biopsy did not reveal what it was. A second biopsy showed that it was not cancer but did not confirm the Sarcodosis. Because it did not grow in the three years, he decided against surgury to remove it. It is located near the bronchial tubes and surgery was very delicate. He follows up with me every six months. He as said if it grows, it must be removed.As a note, he knew I have suffered from depression and when I told him my husband had stage three lung cancer, he told be to be sure I went to see someone about the depression.This is the sign of a truly caring physician.

Never received important test result.
Went to see Dr Patrick to have testing to determine why I was experiencing shortness of breath. Test was done but never received results. I have contacted his office 3 times and asked for the test results and did not receive any callbacks.Today I find out that he sent the results of my tese to my heart doctor??? So it has taken me over 1 year to find out I have COPD and should have started medication 1 year ago.

Crews from the South Oldham Fire Department and the county's hazmat team were called to Pewee Valley late Saturday afternoon.
A hazmat spill was reported about 4 p.m. in the 8500 block of Maple Avenue, located in Clovercroft subdivision.
Firefighters from across the county assembled at the scene.
The county's emergency notification system is changing, and users of the current system may need to re-register for the new service.
Messages about emergency events will now be sent by CodeRED, who recently acquired all of One Call Now's government clients.
According to Kevin Nuss, emergency management director, old contacts for the system have been transfered over, but he advises residents to re-register to ensure their information is in the system and up-to-date.

Oldham County's largest event will fill downtown La Grange this weekend with music, vendors, food and a parade.
It is the 42nd annual Oldham County Day, presented by the Project Guild of La Grange.
This year's parade — a keystone of the event — will honor the late Buddy Head, a life-long Oldham County resident and community supporter.
Tomorrow is just a day away — and it'll be a big day for youth in St. Francis Goshen's intensive theater camp.
About 20 youth in fifth through eighth grades will produce and perform "Annie" during two public shows Friday and Saturday.
They will also perform scenes from the show during Oldham County Day.
The camp is part of St. Francis Goshen's summer offerings, which include 10 other youth camps and six camps for preschoolers.
The "Annie" camp split into two groups, cast and crew.
Safety concerns have prompted organizers of Saturday's Cardinal Triathlon to relocate the event out of Oldham County. The race, in its fifth year, has drawn elite athletes to the area as a tune-up before the August Ironman Louisville event.
Organizers Todd and Cynthia Heady made a last-minute decision to move the race to Taylorsville after learning there would be no police support for the race.
The Fourth of July holiday was a dud last week in some Kentucky cities, including Prospect, where officials worried fireworks combined with dry conditions could set fires.
Prospect Mayor Tom Eberle canceled the Prospect "Boomsday" celebration just hours before the event started, citing extreme heat and overly dry conditions.
Four teens face criminal charges after a short-lived spree earlier this month.
According to La Grange Police Chief Kevin Collett, the teens broke several business and vehicle windows, including a large plate glass window at SKC Architects on Parker Avenue.
The teens then broke a window at La Grange Elementary, causing a computer to fall to the ground.
School district officials announced last week that — despite their preliminary budget — teachers will be getting a raise in the fall.
Superintendent Will Wells, who began his new position July 1, listed teacher compensation as a top priority during the superintendent hiring process.
Now, district officials have decided to dip into a contingency fund to offer an additional .5 percent raise.
La Grange man's untimely passing doesn't cancel plans to honor his life of service
After decades of tireless dedication to his community, a life-long Oldham County resident died Saturday. Willie S. Head — better known to all as "Buddy" — was 74.
Head had been named grand marshal for this year's Oldham County Day parade and considered it an honor.
Considered the deadliest day on U.S. roadways, Oldham County Police responded to three car crashes during on July 4.
None included serious injuries, however, the number of traffic-related fatalities statewide is higher this year than last.
A crash on I-71 southbound at mile marker 21 sent a 24-year-old woman to the hospital with a minor head injury, according to OCPD spokesperson Sarah King.

There is one giant lake right smack in the middle of the wood and various streams and rivers snaking around. It is usually warm but sometimes is cool but not cold. Most of the brighter colored plants are poisonous but some are ordinary bright colored edible plants. The dark plants are all edible. The Cornucopia is situated in the middle of the lake. Floating on the lake are various supplies. The more valuble ones are nearer to the Cornucopia and on the lake floor.

Day 1 (Bloodbath)
The tributes stood on their metal plates. If they didn't step off in time, they would be blown up. Saturn was grinning and flashing off his teeth. He didn't know it was his last smile. While he was smiling, he wasn't concentrating on the starting bell. He was still grinning when the bell wrung. He was blown up right away. Bits of his charred flesh splattered the other tributes. Juniper screamed as blood spattered onto her jumpsuit. The Cornucopia glistened at the middle of the lake. Oak ran next to his sister and hoped that nothing would harm her. A damp packet of dried food caught Oak's eyes. He took it and scooped up his sister. "We're avoiding a bloodbath!" he shouted. He ran into the forest and scurried up the tallest tree. The branches were wide and strong enough to hold each of them. He laid Juniper down on one branch and settled on the closest one. "I'm scared," Juniper whispered. The sounds of the dying tortured the warm air.
The bloodbath was over by 7:45 pm. Out of twenty four tributes, three were dead. Demeter, Sheen, and Conch were dead. The anthem played and their pictures smiled sadly down from the dark sky. The Careers consisted of Silver, Selene, and, surprisingly, Claire. The pretty and young girls found the much older and ugly girl nicer than they thought. They settled in a cave and were sitting by a fire, dividing what little they had managed to steal and scavenge. Silver had gathered a thermal sleeping bag, three bags of dried plums, and a bottle of iodine. Claire had gathered two grey sleeping bags, five jars of pickles, and an oil jug filled with fresh water. Selene had the most. She had killed Sheen and Conch, both of which had a lot of loot. She scavenged three coats, one blanket, a first aid kit, two bottles of morphling, four jugs of water, a bottle of iodine, and sixteen packets of high quality dried food. Claire was eating her fourth pickle out of a jar. Silver was relaxing in the themal sleeping bag. Selene was cleaning off the weapons she had found for the group: Lilac's gold needle, a wooden axe, a cleaver, and a flint knife.
Lilac was pasing the length of her cave. The dying remnants of her fire provided the only light. Her golden needle had been stolen by the evil Selene. All she had left was hunting knife, a thermal bedroll, and three packets of dried catfish. The lake was nearby. She could get water anytime. She remembered forming an alliance with Sheen just to see him killed by Selene minutes later. She had been stabbed by Claire and Selene took her needle as she fell. Lilac had made a makeshift bandage out of Sheen's t-shirt. She spat into her fire and was instantly devoured by darkness.
Juniper cried to herself silently. Oak had left to find more supplies for them and had not come back yet. His juniper branch laid a few feet away from where she rested. There was a slight rustle. Suddenly, Paxton jumps out of the bushes, his eyes wild from fear. Juniper couldn't resist jumping down from the tree and hugging Paxton. "It's okay. You can stay with me," she whispered gently into his ear. The fright from his eyes slowly diminshed until only a ghost of it remained. The two sat there together in the darkness. They hugged each other and told stories. Sometimes they would stop talking and cry quietly together. After hours, Oak came back with a few blankets and coats, nine knives, and two baskets of District 11's bread. He was surprised to see the mourning couple under the tree. He could see that Juniper cared for this boy. But he was struck with sadness. He could see resemblance in the two. In Oak and Juniper, nearly no resemblance showed. He helped them make beds on the branches and swiftly fell asleep.
Day 2
Rhea and Morphus were in a thicket. Rhea was begging quietly to the world to send her some morphling. "Please! I need it! I'll do anything!" she whispered loudly. Morphus was silently eating handfuls of blueberries. Suddenly, a silvery parachute fell with a basket. Inside was a single bottle of iodine and a note. We want a little hungered romance between you and Morphus. Give us that and we'll send you morphling everyday until both ouf you die. If no romance happens between now and 3:50 pm, kiss all chances of getting morphling goodbye. The note read. Rhea showed it to Morphus. Suddenly, Morphus leapt upon Rhea and was kissing her wildly. Rhea was returning the kisses. They were on the ground, the soft leaves and moss cusioning their lovefest. They stopped when two buckets fell beside them with silver parachutes. One had six bottles of morphling. The other had a packet of dried food, two bottles of water, and a note. Not enough. We'll send morphling every two days. Continue this and maybe we'll make sure one of you makes it out alive. Rhea and Morphus knew what they had to do. Sleeping together was one thing they had not planned to do.
Dalton was eating some roasted groosling while Elektra slept. He thought this was a good time to murder someone. He mixed the sleeping pills he had found yesterday in Elektra's canteen and waited for her to eat breakfast. When she finally awoke, she reached for her canteen and chugged most of it down. Within seconds, she was slumped over, asleep. He took out his cleaver and swiftly decapitated her in one fluid motion. Her head rolled away from him as the boom of a cannon went off. One more dead, nineteen to go. He celebrated by butchering most of the body before the hovercraft came and took all of the pieces.
Apple was skinning a rabbit muttation when she heard the loud noise. She dropped the meat and held out the knife. She was ready to kill. Suddenly, Rye jumps out. He barely has time to register Apple before she promptly slices him in the neck. He falls and manages to choke out a few words. Though he was bleeding badly, his chances of survival were more than 100%. "Wanted.....to....make you an.....ally.......friends?" he spluttered as she clutched his wound. Apple looks at him with disgust and stamps on his neck for good measure. There is an awful crunch and the distant boom of a cannon. Rye's eyes are blank and shiny. His mouth is in an awed circle. Apple is splattered in blood when the hovercraft comes to pick up Rye's corpse. From his hand drops the picture of a beautiful girl laughing at the world. Apple is so guilt ridden that she stabs herself in the head with the knife. As she dies, she hears the faint blast of her cannon. She smiles as the last bit of her life ebbs away.
Ginger was singing along with the anthem when she she felt a sharp pain on her back. She looked down and saw the bloody blade of a knife stuck through her. She gasped and fell backwards. The boy who stood over her was crying. "Wheat!" she cried. Her ally had injured her. "Ginger? Ginger!" Wheat screamed as he knelt by his dying comrade. "Why? Why me?" Ginger sobbed. "I'm sorry. I thought you were Selene. Please forgive me," he replied sadly. "I will. I have one question for you......before.....I.....die. Will you provide for my family when you win?" she whispered. Wheat shook his head. "I won't win. I love you and I won't live without you. Kill me like I killed you. Please. If you don't kill me, I'll never forgive myself," he argued. Ginger smiled and shook her head. "You will win for me. Please," she replied calmly before she shut her eyelids. Her chest stopped rising and a cannon blasted in the distance. While he waited for the hovercraft, he demanded that the Capital kill him on the spot. No hovercraft came for a long while and that long while was when he wasted away and died beside his love. The cannon boomed and the hovercraft took the dead couple away.
Day 3
Satin trapped Silver in a net and began his sick love of torture upon her. He first tied her to a rock bed and slit open her right arm. "Audience, I'm giving you a show of torture for a day's worth of meals. If you don't send me anything, once I win, the Capital will fuel my torture shows," he cackled to the sky. Silver screamed in pain as Satin slit her left arm. He also chopped of her beautiful locks and shaved the rest off with a razor blade. "Help! Please! Please!" Silver shrieked before Satin stuffed his socks in her mouth. A basket landed at the mouth of his cave. Inside was a pot of lamb stew, white rolls, and a flask of hot water.. He ate his fill, but there was plenty of leftovers. He took the hot water and scalded Silver's bleeding body with it. The socks couldn't stifle the pitiful shrieks of the victim. "Now, I will cut off her legs!" he said before chopping Silver's slim legs off. The socks were spat out and a long drawn out scream that would've scared the devil unleashed itself from Silver's dainty lips. "KILL ME NOW!!!!!!!! IT HURTS SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!" she shrieked. Satin barely had enough time to relish his victory before Selene shot an arrow through his head. When Claire and Selene came to Silver's side, she barely had enough life left. It seemed that it took most of her breath to howl her plea. "Kill me please. Please. It hurts so much," she whimpered weakly. Selene nodded sadly. "Are you sure?" she asked Silver. "I am very sure," Silver replied. Claire juiced one of the bright orange fruits into Silver's mouth. She had heard it was poisonous. Silver died instantly. The cannon boomed and a metal arms took Silver's damaged body away.
Juniper made a spread out of blueberries and rapunzel herbs and spread it on some bread she had been donated. She served the humble lunch along with water. Paxton practically inhaled his slice. Oak nibbled his until it was gone. Juniper had found curious little berries and was eating them slowly, one by one. After her tenth berry, she keeled over and a deafening boom shook the arena. Oak let out a pained scream of anguish and sadness. Paxton bellowed out despair and anger. They shook Juniper's frail body over and over, but no avail. She had died. Oak turned to Paxton, a look of insane anger twisting his handsome features. "You are the cause of my sister's death! I shall run you through with her branch!" he growled as he took the branch from Juniper's bed. Paxton armed himself with a discarded arrow. They dueled and Oak was struck dead. The cannon sounded in the distance. Paxton was so guilt ridden that he instantly stabbed himself in the neck. The hovercraft came and the three kids were taken away. Rhea and Morphus were already dead by the time Selene and Claire had found them.

Young Christian motivational speaker Nick Vujicic electrifies audiences with his lighthearted take on overcoming challenges.
Feeling overwhelmed by life? Then perhaps a few minutes with Nick Vujicic, above, are in order. Born in 1982 without arms and legs,the young Australian learned to cope partly by turning the tables on those who would mock his difference -- by making a joke of those differences himself. But beneath the laughs is also a profound message celebrating tenacity, love for one's fellow human being as well as the values of his Christian faith. Vujicic's latest book, the ironically titled "A Bully's Dream," comes out this month.

I want single line form, do you have that capability? I tried and can't figure it out. I just want Email entry and submit all on one line to add to the bottom of my webpage.
Thank you,
Natasha Walker
JotForm Support
Hi Natasha,
Yes, it is possible. Please have a look at this test form that I have just created:
What I did on this form in order to get this look is to shrink both email and submit button. I also aligned the email field to the left and submit button to the right. I also had to inject some custom CSS codes in order to arrange the vertical alignment of the fields. Please note that the header is just there for test purposes. It can be deleted easily.
Please feel free to clone it to have a look at it better. Do let us know if you have a form like this to be worked on, we will happily provide assistance on it.
Thank you
Thank you so much, I figured it out via the forums. I am sorry I didn't start there and wasted your time! I will start there next time!
Wishing you the very best season,
Natasha Walker

What Is Financial Management Software?
Financial management software solutions allow organizations to more effectively and accurately control and manage financial operations throughout the entire business – including across multiple companies, subsidiaries, divisions, countries, and sites. With powerful features and functionality, financial management systems dramatically streamline and enhance the way vital financial data is collected, processed, stored, accessed, and presented to users within and beyond the enterprise.
Key Benefits for Your Company
A financial management software package can deliver significant value and rapid return on investment. Some of the primary benefits include the ability to:
- Create process consistency across the entire enterprise.
- Align financial information across departments, business units, and remote offices for complete global visibility into financial status and activities.
- Build a solid compliance framework that ensures adherence to regulatory laws and guidelines through increased speed and integrity of financial reporting.
- Uncover and manage risk through improved control and auditing.
- Identify and leverage new revenue opportunities through in-depth strategic analysis.
- Does My Company Need Financial Management Software?
- Every company in every industry can benefit greatly from a financial management software package.
- Not only will financial management software help improve the way critical financial-related processes are managed across the entire business – resulting in increased efficiency and smoother execution of core business operations on a global scale – it can help companies avoid the risks and severe penalties associated with non-compliance with financial reporting laws and guidelines.
Common Financial Management Software Features
The financial management software packages on the market today provide a broad range of capabilities designed to dramatically enhance global financial operations. Most available offerings provide support for:
- General accounting procedures. With financial management software, organizations can fully automate and improve the way they execute, manage and monitor their core accounting operations, such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, cash flow, and general ledger.
- Global financial processes. Financial management applications enable companies to effectively conduct business – and manage all associated financial tasks and activities – at locations across the world. Features span international markets with support for multiple currencies and conversions, languages, country-specific laws and guidelines, and multi-national transactions.
- Forecasting. The ability to predict vital financial activities such as income, revenues, and expenses is crucial to accurate and effective strategic planning. Financial management solutions enable companies to leverage historical data about financial transactions to forecast and plan for the future.
- Cash flow tracking. In global organizations, it may be difficult to monitor income as it comes into different entities and business units, and track funds as they move between and out of various locations and divisions. Financial management streamlines consolidations, allocations, budgets, and other financial activities across an entire enterprise, providing complete, real-time visibility into cash flow transactions and status at all times.
- Reporting. Financial management software packages provide the ability to generate complete balance sheets, profit and loss statements, and other standard financial reports required for regulatory compliance. Additionally, many of them offer ad hoc analysis capabilities, so financial professionals can easily satisfy their own unique information needs.
What to Look for When Choosing a Financial Management Software Package
Financial activities often serve as the "hub" of business operations, particularly in organizations that operate on a global scale. Therefore, the seamless sharing of vital information across departments, business units, and locations is crucial to ensuring smooth, problem-free transactions. The financial management software package you choose must tightly integrate with other business systems across your company. This is particularly important for multi-national companies that typically maintain disparate applications and databases that reside at different locations in several different countries. For example, your financial management software must link directly to your inventory management and supply chain systems, to ensure that sufficient stock levels are kept to meet all demands. And, it should tie into sales force automation systems to guarantee accurate and timely collaboration on forecasts.
The integrity of confidential financial data should be of the utmost concern when choosing a financial management software application. The system you select should provide numerous integrated security controls – such as firewalls if it is Web-based, and multiple levels of password protection – to ensure that information is kept secure from unauthorized access at all times.
