Why Great Audio Quality Is Essential for Your Teleconference
How often have you had a teleconference where—because of audio-related issues—you had difficulty in conducting an important meeting? Or in some cases, not even being able to make a clear connection at all? Curtiss Singleton, Director of Sales for the Americas at Revolabs, Inc., discusses conferencing solutions that not only provide unmatched audio quality, but ones that also "cut the cord"—giving you the freedom to move around the workspace.
Revolabs focuses on Audio Quality
Doug Green, Publisher of Telecom Reseller, speaks with JP Carney, President and CEO of Revolabs, about the company, the importance of audio quality in UC, the compatibility of their products with various UC platforms, and their acquisition by Yamaha after one year. They discuss how clear audio for teleconferencing is the core element of true collaboration.

From Seed to A: Robinhood's Aim is Right on Target
Often at Index, we're asked about how we build conviction; how do we know, or at least have a strong gut feeling, that we're backing the right entrepreneurs with the right idea, the right platform, at the right time. The question has extra resonance at seed stage, when there's little for potential investors to go on, other than a minimum viable product (MVP) and hopefully a captivating, well-honed pitch.

Bringing Innovation to Our Educational Systems: Why Index Invested in Edmodo
The recent debate around the adoption of the Common Core is emblematic of the need for transformation in the educational systems of the US – and, perhaps around the world. While we have enjoyed a dramatic rise in social and productivity services as consumers, our children have been largely left with technology solutions from the last century for their learning. Many of the old-school ways of educating our youth clearly aren't working anymore – from a lack of STEM classes, to disparate achievement rates, to out-of-control costs. That's why we're excited to announce that we led a $30 million round in Edmodo, a safe platform where teachers and students can collaborate, share content, and leverage educational apps to augment in-classroom learning.
Big Data, Information Services and the Power of Knowledge
Since the term was first coined, 'Big Data' has become an industry buzz word, whose original meaning and potency has faded somewhat with overuse. Investors and entrepreneurs alike have long been chasing big data plays with little thought as to what such a term actually means. Simply put, 'big data' refers to the terabytes of data that technology has enabled us to produce, collect, store and mine. But in the majority of instances, data in itself has limited value.

Ichorcumab: the blood of the gods?

Anki: why the demo sealed the deal
If ever there was a case of a demo sealing the deal, then this was it. From the moment we saw Anki Drive cars racing around their track, our minds were made up. Those hundreds of hours I'd spent as a kid, battling electric-powered cars against my friends came flooding back.
Where to start an 'Asset-Centric' Biotech Firm?
In an era of payer austerity and funding challenges, more and more biotech entrepreneurs and investors, alike, are realizing the considerable risks associated with simultaneous development of multiple assets and instead opting for a more streamlined approach that has come to be known as "asset-centricity."
The end of retail (as we know it)
The carnage on the British High street - and its Main Street, USA equivalent - is no blip. The cycle of decline, which has seen a run of recent closures of UK household name retailers and a total of more than 200 medium or large retail businesses going bust over the past five years, is here to stay.

Why we invested in Supercell...
While many looked at Supercell's phenomenal rise and assumed that, statistically speaking, its best days had to be behind it, my partners and I took the contrary view and decided to lead a €100 million investment in the company.
Rethinking wealth management
When our good friend, Andy Rachleff, started Wealthfront with Dan Carroll a few years back, they held a revolutionary belief about how money should be managed. Having been a trustee of several university endowments, Andy had seen how larger and more sophisticated investors managed their funds.
The UK's Growth Dilemma
As they reach the stage when they're approaching profitability, fast-growth companies have a choice: they can either focus on profits - or on market share and scale. Our preference is that they continue to focus on growth.
The economics of freemium
Economics is occasionally derided as a phony science. Frankly I struggled with it school and university so to me this description really resonates. How can the graphs and formulae in the textbooks ever really capture the behavior of complex organizations and impulsive consumers?
We are the 8%
"Flatlining", "pre-recovery", "stagnant", "sluggish" - we're running out of adjectives to describe the UK's seemingly moribund economy. Stripped of its AAA rating last weekend, it shrank by 0.3% in the final quarter of last year [1], and - amid signs of a possible triple dip recession - more of the same is predicted for 2013.
Finding insight in Big Data
200,000 downloads per month don't happen everyday in the enterprise software universe, especially when you're talking about a piece of infrastructure software enabled search in Big Data.
Great VCs come from a range of backgrounds
The most successful venture-backed companies are those with great entrepreneurs, disrupting a market at just the right time. Clearly the capital and claimed expertise of VCs do not on their own create a winning company.
First Dibs for Index
When Net-a-Porter launched in 2000, Natalie Massenet, the company's inspiring founder, faced considerable scepticism about the very premise of her new venture. Why would women ever buy expensive clothing online?
'The Nielsen of social measurement'
I recall three things about my first visit to the Socialbakers team in Prague, in the autumn of 2010. The first was the size of their office: they were working in a cramped cubby-hole in the loft of a six storey building, shivering through the winter.
A new beginning in networking
When Guido and Kyle were looking for a name for their newly founded company, they were struggling to come up with something that captured the breadth of their vision for what they foresaw as the future of the networking business. They could have found another randomly-generated five or six letter Latin-sounding name, but that didn't seem to do the vision or the company justice.
Gianni Garotta: on to the next thing
This month Gianni is retiring. We have been working together for almost 10 years.
Investors should not be wary of VC-backed tech
The 'campaign' to kickstart the London tech IPO market is underway. The blog posts that Neil Rimer and I both published have attracted a lot of press attention. The engagement we've had with No10 and the LSE should result in some small but important regulatory changes that should be seen as important steps towards making London a major hub for tech IPOs.
Playground 1.0
Yesterday, over 130 people, largely drawn from Cambridge, London and Oxford, attended the first ever 'Playground' event, aimed squarely at young academics thinking about biotech start-ups.
The Lionel Messi of Biology?
He turned 46 years old last week, and at the end of 2011 he chose to leave a coveted academic position as Principal Investigator in the Department of Medicine at Cambridge University (UK).
Secrets to success in a complex market
When Ursheet and Guru started their venture, c, in the summer of 2009, it wasn't always so obvious that they would be the winners in Cloud Storage market. In fact, it wasn't entirely clear that there was a market for cloud-integrated enterprise storage.
Go big, stay at home
Here at Index, our conference rooms often play host to ardent debates. Robust discourse over where we should invest is an ingrained part of our culture. But when it comes to the fundamental issues that allow us to act on our mission of promoting the entrepreneurial ecosystem, we are generally in violent agreement.
A pure innovator's dilemma
In his book, The Innovator's Dilemma: When New Technologies Cause Great Firms to Fail, Clay Christensen authored one of the most influential thought pieces to impact the technology community.
Tech and the City
From our vantage point at Index, the centrality of the Tech sector to economic growth -- particularly during the economic slowdown of the last few years -- is all too clear.
Fuzebox: rising from the ashes
In the venture capital business, you occasionally see companies rising from the ashes of a venture disaster. Companies go down to their last month of payroll and yet find a way to survive and, later, flourish.
5 Reasons Why I Fell in Love with Codecademy

While investors (myself and my partners included), entrepreneurs, politicians and government officials collectively ballyhoo the coming of age of the London start-up scene and its steady stream of high-caliber entrepreneurs pursuing bold plans, we seem to be glossing over the fact that a key component of the ecosystem is sorely lacking.

There's a line between constructive and creepy, but when done correctly, email personalization can boost the performance of your email marketing campaigns.
I wrote a blog post recently for Only Influencers on email personalization that was creepy. But done correctly, personalization can boost the performance of your email marketing campaigns.
eMarketer recently reported on a Harris Interactive survey done in December 2013 that asked U.S. digital shoppers about email personalization. The results were great news for e-commerce marketers using email:
Here are some tips for good and not-so-good ways to gather information to personalize your email messages; done correctly the payoff will be a better subscriber experience and a boost to your bottom line revenue!
1. Do Ask
Gathering personal information at the point of opt-in can be tricky. The more you ask, the more likely it is that people will either lie or leave without completing the sign-up process. But it can be done.
As a rule of thumb, ask for no more than five fields of information on your sign-up page. If you must ask for more, break it up into multiple pages, with the most important information first, and be sure the answers are written to your database as each page is filled out -- not just at the end of the process when all pages are complete.
Tell people why you are asking these questions, in benefit-oriented terms, and they'll be more likely to answer. For example, I'm more likely to share the fact that I'm 5-feet 9-inches tall if it's clear that this will get me more emails about pants that come with longer inseams and eliminate emails about petite dresses.
2. Do Ask Again
Gathering information for personalization shouldn't stop after the opt-in.
Set up a preference and personalization center that subscribers can access anytime they receive an email or visit your site. As they get more comfortable with your brand and more familiar with your email program, they will likely be willing to share more personal information with you.
Show them the information you've already gathered on them -- then let them update it. Also show them the information you'd like to have but don't know yet -- and ask them to provide it. Don't forget to make a benefit-oriented case; let them know what they'll receive in return for providing the information.
3. Do Observe
Observed data can be even more valuable than reported data -- but here's a place where you have to be cautious. There's a line between constructive and creepy and it's important not to cross it.
One element of this is how you present the information. Seeing that a customer looked at a dozen bathing suits on your site yesterday but didn't buy any and sending an email with a selection of bathing suits in it isn't creepy. But including a message in the email that says, "We saw that you were looking at bathing suits on the site yesterday but didn't put any in your cart..." is. This is true even if they have opted-in to receive email from you and are a regular visitor to your site.
4. Don't Forget Permission
Continuing my previous thought: If I haven't opted-in to receive email from you and you're sending me messages based on observed behavior...then you're definitely in the creepy zone, even if you don't include the message about knowing what I did on your site yesterday.
Yes, I know that there's a big business in doing appends to get the email addresses of IP addresses that have visited your site. But it's creepy. If I wanted to receive email from you, I would have opted-in when I visited your site. If I didn't opt-in, then I don't want to receive email from you. End of story. Growing your list in this manner isn't email marketing -- it's email stalking.
If you're looking to boost the performance of your e-commerce email marketing program, personalization can be the key to your success. It's all about relevance -- figure out what information will help you be more relevant to your audience and then either ask them to provide it or watch to see if you can observe it. Do try this at your office and let me know how it goes!

I have a midlet with 2 screens.
Screen one is a form which has 2 StringItems and 1
in that sequence.
The StringItems display simple text messages.
The Textfield is a initialized as follows:
private TextField tf01 = new TextField("Ph num",null,5,TextField.NUMERIC);
I have added 2 Commands to the initial screen. One for exit to close the application. One "Ok" Command to go to the 2nd screen.
One BACK command to the 2nd screen to return to the 1st screen.
I have attached an
of the 1st screen when I have clicked on menu button and the menu is getting displayed.
Since there are only 2 commands on this screen Exit and Ok. I want on command to be displayed at the bottom left corner and one on the bottom right corner insted of the menu getting displayed.
How do I achieve this?
My code is as follows:
/* Currently this program does not do anything with numbers. It displays one screen with 2 StringItems following messages. Screen 01 also has a textfield on it to recrive a 5 digit number. Upon choosing next from the menu it stores this number in the record store "aRS" and changes the display to tne next form. This screen has 2 menus: 1 Exit and 2 next (Which displays another form) This new form has a back button functionality through which you can return to the previous form. */ //jad file (please verify the jar size) /* MIDlet-Name: storenumbers MIDlet-Version: 1.0 MIDlet-Vendor: MyCompany MIDlet-Jar-URL: storenumbers.jar MIDlet-1: storenumbers, , storenumbers MicroEdition-Configuration: CLDC-1.0 MicroEdition-Profile: MIDP-1.0 MIDlet-JAR-SIZE: 100 */ import javax.microedition.lcdui.Command; import javax.microedition.lcdui.CommandListener; import javax.microedition.lcdui.Display; import javax.microedition.lcdui.Displayable; import javax.microedition.lcdui.Form; import javax.microedition.lcdui.StringItem; import javax.microedition.midlet.MIDlet; import javax.microedition.lcdui.TextField; import javax.microedition.rms.RecordStore; public class storenumbers extends MIDlet implements CommandListener { private Display display; private Form form; private Command exit = new Command("Exit", Command.SCREEN, 1); private Command ok = new Command("next", Command.OK, 1); private Command back = new Command("back", Command.BACK, 1); private TextField tf01 = new TextField("Ph num",null,5,TextField.NUMERIC); private RecordStore rs = null; public storenumbers() { display = Display.getDisplay(this); StringItem messages[] = new StringItem[] { new StringItem("Hello, ", "J2EE is good."), new StringItem("Hello, ", "Friend.") }; form = new Form("Display Form with Items", messages); //Adding a text box to the form for entering a number form.append(tf01); form.addCommand(exit); form.addCommand(ok); form.setCommandListener(this); } public void startApp() { display.setCurrent(form); } public void pauseApp() { } public void destroyApp(boolean unconditional) { } public void commandAction(Command command, Displayable displayable) { if (command == exit) { destroyApp(true); notifyDestroyed(); } if (command == ok) { System.out.println("inside command == ok if()"); //Call method to store number in record store storenumberinRS(); StringItem messages[] = new StringItem[] { new StringItem("Welcome, ", "way to go boy."), new StringItem("Hello rey, ", "Champ") }; Form form1 = new Form("Display Form with Items", messages); form1.addCommand(back); form1.setCommandListener(this); display.setCurrent(form1); } if (command == back) { display.setCurrent(form); } } public void storenumberinRS() { try { rs = RecordStore.openRecordStore("aRS", false); } catch (Exception e) { System.out.println("Exception while opening record store"); } //Adding number to Record store byte numberbytes[] = tf01.getString().getBytes(); try { rs.addRecord(numberbytes, 0, numberbytes.length); } catch (Exception e) { System.out.println("Exception while addring number to record store"); } finally { try { rs.closeRecordStore(); } catch (Exception e) { } } }// method storenumberinRS() ends. }
Please help.

I think you can't do that in j2me. I am not very much sure, but it may possible on some mobiles one command may be display on bottom right and one at bottom left , but on some mobile it display as a menu.
Life is easy because we write the source code.....

Thanks for sharing your result data. For these tests, was this a single node mounting a standalone GFS disk, or was it shared between other nodes that had the same volume mounted? It is not clear to me on the median GFS was mounted on either, i.e., HBA, iSCSI, local disk?
We're somewhat local to you if you want to coordinate a call and discuss your objectives on this, too. We're using GFS in an 11-node RHEL cluster implementation. I'd be interested in your experiences with iSCSI as well.

Steve Pantaleo, 35, of Shelby and a 1996 Michigan State grad, celebrates outside of Ford Field Saturday after his alma mater's win.

It will not save us. No basketball game can do that. No matter who wins Monday night, Tuesday morning the jobs still will be gone, the factories still silent and empty, the houses still for sale or abandoned altogether.

Raw Honey and Cinnamon Baked Oats With Cranberries and Sunflower Seeds
Oats are rich in essential dietary fiber and a great support for heart health, while sunflower seeds, rich in vitamin E, play an important role in the prevention of cardiovascular disease.
How to Prepare: In a bowl, blend 2 cups of rolled oats, 2 tbsp. of honey, ½ cup of cranberries and ½ cup of sunflower seeds. Next, spread a small amount of olive oil onto a foil-lined cookie sheet to prevent stickiness and add oats mix. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. When cooled, store in a Ziploc container and get your munch on.

Recent posts: Electric Bastards
Electric Bastards are production and DJing duo Jordan Drieghe and Curt Savage, based in Belgium these guys have lost their souls to music. They are devoted to house beats and like to experiment with different genres. For several years they have been active in the music scene with different projects and appearing on many labels including a remix on "Once Again" by Mindgamers. Today they make their full Bonzai debut with "High Pass" including a fabulous remix, enjoy!
The original mix kicks off in true tech style with sharp percussion and a low end thumping drum. The layers are slowly stacked up with a brilliant bassline holding things up well. Lots of FX give the track a lot of character with a real cool vocal sample rounding things off.
Zas and Zanse aka Mindgamers return the previous favour to Electric Bastards with a stunning remix of the highest quality. Building up a cool tech vibe from the off with a rhythmic drum and percussion mix, strong, solid grooves come through and the track takes off when the bassline kicks in. Big sytnh sweeps on the break give an air of prog n the sound but the true roots are in tech as the track kicks back in, these guys sure know how to work a remix!

Talinn's finest Zas & Sanze aka Mindgamers are back with more tripped out prog house vibes with their new track "Once Again" and it comes with a little help from friends Florian Meindl and Electric Bastards on remix duty.
The original is a proper Mindgamers track with crisp, sharp hats and rhythmic percussions over a tight kick. Brilliant piano chords take centre stage here and a truly deep throbbing bass will get any speaker (and ass) shaking. Well placed vocal sample repeats once again and on the break the piano ramps up a notch with super cool strings coming through, one hell of a build up gets us pounding back into the groove, top quality stuff!
First up for remix duties is Florian Meindl with his Shitakusa Remix. Berlin based producer, DJ and sound designer Florian is a hard working artist with many releases and remixes under his belt including on his own label Flash Recordings. With a passion for music he is busy with writing movie soundtracks and has completed his BA at the London College Of Music. Here he applies his skill in style, carving out a straight up prog house groover, nice chunky kicks are in contrast with subtle strings and some very nifty FX and synth work. On the break the bass is boss and the pianos provide for an awesome build up back into this superb flowing track.

Angelina and Brad Deny Wedding Plans
We're not at all shocked to hear this... Brad and Angelina's rep have denied that the two have any plans to get married this month. Last week it sounded like the Jolie-Pitts may have changed their minds about marriage, but their rep has said this report was all made up. US Weekly reports:
Brad Pitt's rep denied late Friday that the actor is planning to wed Angelina Jolie in Johannesburg. "It's all made up," the rep told Us Weekly.
A tabloid reported this week that the couple would wed in South Africa in a simple and elegant ceremony with African music. Guests attending, according to the report, included Oprah Winfrey. "Oprah would not be invited to their wedding. They are not that close," a source close to the couple says.
Who knows if these two will ever get married. They seem pretty happy just the way they are. More pics of Angelina looking fab in her Tom Ford Sunglasses, just

CASHIERS, N.C. – Douglas Hanzel ensured that the longest current medalist drought in USGA amateur championship competition would continue.
Hanzel, 56, of Savannah, Ga., defeated top seed Chip Lutz, 58, of Reading, Pa., 3 and 2, in the first of two semifinal matches on Thursday morning at the 2013 USGA Senior Amateur at Wade Hampton Golf Club. Hanzel will meet Pat O'Donnell, 59, of Happy Valley, Ore., in the 18-hole final at 12:30 p.m. EDT. O'Donnell eliminated Buzz Fly, 58, of Memphis, Tenn., 2 and 1.
The semifinal matches were pushed back to Thursday because of rain, fog and unplayable conditions on Wednesday. It's the first time since 2002 that both the semifinals and championship match were contested on the same day.
Not since 1987, when John Richardson won at Saucon Valley Country Club in Bethlehem, Pa., had a qualifying medalist also claimed the championship trophy at the Senior Amateur, a span of 26 years. No other USGA amateur competition has had a medalist drought this long.
"I heard that last night," said Lutz, now a three-time Senior Amateur semifinalist (2010, 2011 and 2013). "I was really trying to put that out of my mind. I was kind of surprised [it had been that long]."
Unfortunately for him, Lutz ran into a hot player. Hanzel, the low amateur at the 2012 and 2013 U.S. Senior Opens, raced to a 4-up lead at the turn, shooting the equivalent of 4-under 32, with the usual match-play concessions.
Lutz had shot under par in all of his previous six rounds on the 6,842-yard, par-72 Tom Fazio design, including a pair of 3-under 69s in qualifying. He made six birdies in his 4-and-3 quarterfinal win on Wednesday, but had just one birdie in 16 holes against Hanzel.
Hanzel, the only player in USGA history to make match play in the U.S. Amateur, U.S. Mid-Amateur and Senior Amateur in the same year (2012), went 1 up on the par-3 third hole when he stuffed his tee shot to gimme range, and Lutz could not answer from 5 feet. On the par-5 fourth hole, Hanzel rolled in a long birdie putt and Lutz, facing a 4-footer, missed and went 2 down.
At the seventh hole, Lutz knocked a wedge approach to 6 feet for another winning birdie. He also birdied the ninth hole from 8 feet.
"I knew I was going to have to play under-par golf against Chip and I got out to a quick start," said Hanzel, the 2012 Georgia Senior Amateur champion. "My goal was to hit fairways and greens. I struck it good and I hit a couple of good putts."
Lutz won two of the next three holes to trim the margin to 2 down. He rolled in a 12-foot putt on the par-5 10th for his lone birdie. At the par-4 12th, Hanzel's 3-iron off the tee was pulled left under a bush, where he had to take an unplayable lie. He made a bogey 5, and Lutz converted a 7-foot comeback par putt to win the hole.
Hanzel, however, kept hitting quality shots to force Lutz to top him. It didn't happen. Hanzel closed out the match with a brilliant 8-iron approach from 170 yards to 12 feet at the 16th hole and calmly two-putted for the victory. He was three under for 16 holes, while Lutz was even par.
"It was a good, solid round given … it was a semifinal match," said Hanzel, a pulmonary-care physician who will be playing in his first USGA final. "I hit the ball pretty good where I was aiming, especially the last shot [on 16]."
For Lutz, it was more disappointment in a USGA championship. A two-time winner of the British Seniors Open Amateur (2011 and 2012) and Canadian Senior Amateur (2011 and 2012) – both stroke-play events – Lutz is still looking for his first USGA national championship.
"It's disappointing," said Lutz. "Hats off to him. He played nicely. At least I didn't lose to a bad score.
"I played well in the stroke-play portion. I love that part of the game, and I love [match play]. I just don't play it as much. Unfortunately, timing sometimes is important. If you get the wrong guy at the wrong time, you're down the road."
For O'Donnell, the matchup against Hanzel is a rematch from last year's Senior Amateur quarterfinals at Mountain Ridge Country Club in West Caldwell, N.J., where Hanzel prevailed, 3 and 1.
O'Donnell will be looking for the same effort in the final that he had against Fly. He played 2-under golf (with concessions) for 17 holes, making just one bogey (ninth hole).
"Today was awesome," said O'Donnell. "I had good tempo. Everything was really good. It was a great match. Buzz is a good player. He didn't miss too many shots. It came down to making a few putts out there."
O'Donnell, a maintenance analyst for Boeing, never trailed against Fly. He opened with a birdie at the par-5 first hole, but Fly squared the match two holes later with a birdie 2 on No. 3. A double-bogey 6 by Fly at the seventh gave O'Donnell a 1-up lead, which he held until Fly birdied the 13th hole to square the match.
One hole later, O'Donnell, competing in his fourth Senior Amateur and fifth USGA championship, took the lead for good with a par on the 14th hole. He closed out the match with a birdie at the 17th.
O'Donnell credited much of his success this week to his friend/caddie Craig Plummer.
"He keeps reminding me to keep up the tempo," said O'Donnell. "He tells me a lot of jokes."
O'Donnell was pleased that USGA officials decided to start the semifinal matches on Thursday morning.
"To play nine holes or 11 or 12, whatever we could have gotten in last night, and then to try and walk back out and tee it up somewhere or from the middle of the fairway, this is better. We got to start the match fresh in the morning."
Both the finalists receive exemptions into this year's U.S. Mid-Amateur at the Country Club of Birmingham in Alabama (Oct. 5-10), next year's U.S. Amateur at the Atlanta Athletic Club in Johns Creek, Ga., and the 2014 U.S. Senior Open at Oak Tree National in Edmond, Okla. The champion receives a 10-year exemption from qualifying for the Senior Amateur, an exemption from local qualifying for the 2014 U.S. Open and an exemption to the 2015 U.S. Amateur at Olympia Fields (Ill.) Country Club. The runner-up receives a three-year Senior Amateur exemption.

Not so sensational dalo2036No counter space. Good sized closets. Bathroom was updated. Large balcony. Clean! Be careful of the faucets. Hot water ....really hot! And splashes. Remember to take hair dryer and alarm clock. None in rooms. Although we very seldom saw our steward, the room was always clean. The air conditioner is hard to regulate. It's in the celing and you have to stand on the bed to adjust it.

I highly doubt it is still leaking. It would be fairly obvious. It really isn't unexpected to see a slick like this after the massive spill. You expect to see sparkly clean water? They used dispersants to mix a whole bunch of it in with the sea water, they probably removed less than what was left in the ocean.
BP had firmly denied that the well is continuing to leak.
"None of this is true," they said in a statement.
Big surprise.
Before we dive into the content, I must correct a misconception on ignorant display: "natural" does not equal "good." It can, and in advertisements it always does, but in reality, the two words are not synonymous. There are a lot of terrible things in nature: Ebola; Infanticide (e.g. in lions); Rape (e.g. in dolphins); Murder (e.g. in chimps); Cannibalism (e.g. all over the place). All natural, but not good. Sorry, pet peeve.

Oh no what is better the oil or more of BP`s poisons? We know how they clean this stuff up.
And Is this ad some sort of sick twisted joke being on a Oil spill thread. Oil is the problem here. Well could be just how BP runs their rigs actually I suppose.
Just wanted to add I know ATS doesn`t choose the Ad`s.

Drakath is the Champion of Chaos and the main antagonist of Adventure Quest Worlds. He was the son of the former king, Slugwrath. In DragonFable it is said that he and Sepulchure had a deal that Drakath would receive the Necrotic Blade of Doom to get his kingdom back. In exchange for the Doom weapon, Sepulchure wanted the white and black dragon boxes. Because Drakath couldn't get both boxes, (thanks to the hero from DragonFable), he didn't get the sword (Until he used it to stab Sepulchure). He seems to have acquired chaos powers, and seeks to end all good and evil and bring about an age of chaos.
In AdventureQuest Worlds, he appears to the shock of everyone as he fatally wounds Alteon, destroys Sepulchure and sends his castle crashing, beginning the war on Chaos. He has masterminded the creation of his Chaos Lords, the release of the Chaos Beasts and seeks to unleash his partner, the Mother of all Monsters, onto the world.
To free MoM, all the Chaos Lords have to be defeated.
The Chaos Finale
After the 12 Chaos Lords are defeated, the Hero heads to Mount Doomskull to defeat Drakath before unleashing the 13th Chaos Lord. Eventually, after fighting countless monsters, they reach the top of Mountain where they start a fight against Drakath. However, before the fight begins, Drakath promises that whoever the winner will be, he will reveal the identity of his 13th Chaos Lord. The battle starts fiercely then ends with Drakath winning. He then prepares to kill the Hero, when they reminds him about his promise. Drakath then laughs and shockingly chooses the Hero as his 13th Chaos Lord, turning them into the final Lord Of Chaos with 4 forms to choose from.
However, after revealing the 13th Chaos Lord's true identity, Drakath killed the Hero similar on how he did to Sepulchure, the hero was sent to Death's realm. Later, the Hero defeated Death, becoming the new Death. So the Hero returned to Lore to put an end to Drakath. After a very long fight, Drakath had to turn into a Prime Chaos Champion to end the fight, but instead of fighting, he entered the Chaos Lord portal to free the Mother of all Monsters. Also entering this portal, the hero managed their way to Drakath. This time, the hero won. Since all the Chaos Lords and the Champion of Chaos were defeated, The Queen of Monsters broke free, sucking up Drakath's power.
- Like Megatron both are betrayed by a servant who finds them incompetent and doubting their leadership skills Starscream to Megatron and Ledgermayne to Drakath.
- He and Palpatine are both Antagonists who corrupt protagonists of their setting to their sides(The Hero to Drakath and Darth Vader to Palpatine) and eventually both The Hero and Darth Vader plan on betraying them for greater power as well as trying to gain their ranks(Champion of Chaos for The Hero and Galactic Emperor for Darth Vader).
- Drakath from Adventure Quest Worlds is almost similar to Luca Blight in Suikoden 2 which closely resembles him.
- When the player finally completes the Chaos Saga, they can obtain the currently hardest in-game armor, Drakath's armor.
- Drakath was claimed by the Queen of Monsters to be her son in the ending of AdventureQuest Worlds 1st main saga.
