"Sometimes I feel like this has been my whole life."
Us too, Milla Jovovich, us too. Thus begins the all new trailer (watch below) out of #NYCC2016 for the final installment of the #ResidentEvil film series, Resident Evil: The Final Chapter. The sixth film in a franchise spawned by the popular video game series puts a cap (so say the filmmakers) on what started in 2002 as the first female-led zombie action/horror film.
Watch the trailer for Resident Evil: The Final Chapter below:
In the trailer Milla Jovovich reprises her role as Alice, this time returning to Raccoon City where the T-virus first erupted and where the evil Umbrella Corporation, led by super computer The Red Queen, claims to have a plan to rid the world of the T-virus and its mutant zombie infected for good. As anyone who's watched the previous films can attest, Alice has no reason to trust The Red Queen (no matter how cute that little British girl may be), but the little bitch knows how to appeal to Alice, with the promise of a good fight back at The Hive, of course.
The official synopsis for the film, which hits theaters January 27, 2017 states
Picking up immediately after the events in Resident Evil: Retribution, Alice (Milla Jovovich) is the only survivor of what was meant to be humanity's final stand against the undead. Now, she must return to where the nightmare began – The Hive in Raccoon City, where the Umbrella Corporation is gathering its forces for a final strike against the only remaining survivors of the apocalypse.
The Resident Evil franchise, every film written and directed by Paul W.S. Anderson, has consistently been raked by critics, but in addition to being the longest-running franchise based on a video game series, it's also the only video game franchise to earn more with each sequel released. A rare feat and reason aplenty why we're getting a sixth installment of a series no one in particular is asking for, and which seemed to suggest by its earlier installment titles that it had already ended.
Just goes to show the words "Apocalypse," "Extinction," and "Afterlife" aren't quite the final terms we usually know them to be.

Returning to the series are co-stars Eoin Macken, Ali Larter, Iain Glen, and William Levy, joined by newcomer Ruby Rose. At New York Comic Con, Anderson was asked if we can expect this to be a truly final chapter to the series, to which he responded:
This is the conclusion, we're bringing it full circle, it's coming back to where it all began.
For those who love seeing Jovovich kicking ass without a hair out of place (she really does do it quite well), or massive amounts of gun loading and utility vehicle plow-downs, there's no franchise that does it better — not to mention with the promise of decent horror scares thrown into the mix. On the franchise's horror roots in the video games and as a series straddling the action and horror genres Anderson said this of The Final Chapter:
"[The film] alternates between some big kick ass action scenes and also some of the most terrifying things I've put on the screen in my career."
While we certainly get more action than horror from this new trailer, it's obvious Anderson and company aren't holding anything back for the final film. And despite the relatively low quality of story and consistency in the series, there's no denying it presented us with one of the raddest female action badasses ever put to screen.
Catch the film out in January and find more news from the 2016 New York Comic Con on Movie Pilot.

Will you be checking out the latest, and final, chapter of the Resident Evil series or do you think this has gone on too long?

Unanswered: publishing or FTP?
I've been doing MS Access and other databases for a long time. I always did a small amount of SQL Server database work as well. However now my web sites have grown beyond Access usage for back-end database scripting. I am setting up, for example, a membership list in SQL Server and users are hitting the Access MDB files that the web pages are freezing on each user simultaneously.
In the past, I used a custom FTP VB6 application I wrote to download Access databases from my web server to my client computer (which I would then use for newsletters, setting member preferences, etc.) My hosting companies do not allow remote SQL Server connections so I either have to use online web applications to manage my users or find a way to connect the Access MDB file on the server to the back-end SQL Server.
I noticed there is a SQL Server publishing wizard that FTPs your client SQL database to a web server. Since a SQL database is disk-based and not a file-based system (that you can just copy off the server) does anyone have suggestions on how to manage a SQL Server database remotely if you don't have your own web server or have access to it (other than through a hosting control panel)?
Basically I just need to find a way to download tables from the server (or upload them with changes or new data) so I can manage my membership list from the client computer.
Should I be building some sort of web service for this?
If anyone thinks I'm making this too complicated and has a better solution or Microsoft set of developer tools they can use, let me know.

New FDA E-cigarette Regulations Condemned by CASAA
New FDA E-cigarette Regulations Condemned by CASAA
DES MOINES, IA (May 6, 2016) - The Consumer Advocates for Smoke-free Alternatives Association (CASAA) is condemning the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) tobacco deeming regulations that will effectively ban 99.9% of the vapor products currently on the market.
CASAA is justifiably outraged that the FDA has opted to squander a monumental opportunity to greatly improve the health and well-being of the public. Moreover, the FDA has demonstrated a clear lack of regard for the most recent scientific evidence and advice from public health professionals that support the promotion of vapor products to smokers as an effective means to reduce the harms of smoking. FDA has turned its back on millions of smokers and their families with the finalization of these regulations.
Yesterday's action by the FDA imposes an insurmountable burden to apply for and meet impossible and largely irrelevant standards. Rather than work toward supporting innovation of less harmful products, FDA's actions demonstrate a clear preference for the status-quo which keeps dangerous products in place while stifling their low-risk competitors. In no uncertain terms, the FDA regulations are an unmitigated disaster which will only increase suffering by prolonging the war on smoking.
The impact of smoking on public health has been of great concern for decades. Considerable effort, funded largely by taxpayers, has gone into combating the toll of smoking over the past 50 years. Despite these efforts, the level of death and disease attributed to smoking has remained relatively constant. The electronic cigarette, which is an effective and enjoyable substitute for many smokers, poses a small fraction of the health risk compared to combustible tobacco. The popularity of vaping represents an unprecedented opportunity to significantly reduce the harm caused by smoking.
The enactment or deferral of these regulations presented a stark choice for the U.S. government: Embrace the status quo by employing coercive and punitive tactics to achieve small incremental declines in cigarette smoking, or enact sensible, tailored regulations that support the development and innovation of life-saving products. In any other field, if a product were significantly less harmful than a previous model, the government, health officials, and the public would be singing its praises and demanding access -- not attempting to enact prohibitive regulations that would force it out of existence.
In blinding contrast, the FDA's deeming regulation comes on the heels of two monumental reports released by Public Health England and the Royal College of Physicians in the UK. Both organizations recognize the significant contribution that electronic cigarettes can make toward improving public health as an alternative to smoking that is at least 95% less harmful than combustible cigarettes. Conversely, the FDA is sending a clear but misleading message to 42 million smokers in the U.S. that abstinence is the only acceptable option. Such an irresponsible and reckless recommendation from an agency with a mandate to protect public health is an appalling breach of ethics and public trust.
The Consumer Advocates for Smoke-free Alternatives Association (CASAA) is a non-profit 501(c)(4) organization with an all-volunteer board and a grassroots membership of more than 140,000 active members from all walks of life. CASAA is dedicated to ensuring the availability of reduced harm alternatives to smoking and to providing smokers and the public with honest information about those products. CASAA will continue its efforts in advocating for more reasonable, ethical, and sensible regulations.

Arranging collections
General advice on setting up a collection and finding a contractor
Many businesses find that they can save money by recycling some of their waste.
Somerset Waste Partnership provides charged for collections for businesses if requested, through our collection contractor. However, we recommend you shop around other contractors operating, to compare prices and get the best deal.
There are a number of licensed waste management companies who provide commercial waste and recycling collection services in Somerset listed on this website. There are also listings in Yellow Pages and similar directories.
Costs depend on the type of waste, the containers used and frequency of collection.
Unlike household waste and council tax, waste collections are not included in business rates.
By recycling some of your waste, may find you save money and be fulfilling your "Pre-Treatment regulations". Landfill Tax, which is levied on refuse is increasing each year and is now £86.10 per tonne. This means that landfill is an expensive option and other options including recycling are better for the environment and for your books.

The deals are not completely done, but the Orioles expect fifth-round draft pick, Connor Narron, a high school infielder from Goldsboro, North Carolina and ninth-round pick, prep pitcher Parker Bridwell from Hereford, Texas, in Baltimore this Thursday and Friday for physicals.
If all goes well, they could soon officially sign and report to the Gulf Coast League Orioles as early as next week.
"We are hopeful that we are within five or six days tops (of the pair reporting to that club)," O's scouting director Joe Jordan said. "We feel like we will be in good shape on these pretty soon. More than likely the middle of next week.
"It will be all about getting them acclimated to the way we do things. Whatever game stuff we get out of it is a bonus to me."
Meanwhile, Jordan is heading to Los Angeles for scouting and some face-to-face negotiations with three players from California that have not yet signed.
"We have three guys from the West Coast that are in our top ten that we haven't signed. I'm sure there will be a lot of attention paid to those guys.
"It reaches a point where it's about that time for someone to make a decision. We are going to address it, let both sides make their point and hopefully get what we want."
Jordan is expecting to meet with third-round pick, UCLA pitcher Dan Klein, sixth-round selection, Cal pitcher Dixon Anderson and Pepperdine pitcher Matthew Bywater, taken in round seven.
The O's were hopeful that Klein would have been signed not long after the end of the College World Series, but it still hasn't happened.
"I'll know more about it (Klein) come the weekend. I'm tired of speculating on that one. I'm going to go and deal with it face-to-face and see what we can put together."
Top pick Many Machado is still not signed and that one still figures to down perhaps to the last day for picks to sign on August 16.
Machado is no longer playing summer ball in Florida.
Meanwhile, the O's are delighted that an agreement is within reach with Narron, who dropped to the fifth round because many thought he was headed to North Carolina to play college ball.
"I felt pretty good about it. Dominic Viola, our area scout, we felt got through the signability information maybe different or better than others. We felt like we would be in good shape. We thought about taking him earlier and put it off a bit. It comes down to our area scout did a good job on this one," Jordan said.

The atemoya has attracted increasing interest due to its aroma, flavor and market value. But like most fruits is quite perishable, making necessary the application of preservation methods, such as drying spray, which prolongs the shelf life, reduces the water activity and gets as final product the food powder. The objective this study was dehydrated the formulation prepared with 50% atemoya pulp + 50% distilled water, added 25% maltodextrin, in a spray dryer with inlet air temperature of 180°C, the feeding flow rate of 0.5 L h-1, air pressure of 30 kgf cm-2 and the nozzle diameter of 1.2 mm. As the final product, it was obtained two powder samples, one collected in the drying chamber and another in the cyclone, been these characterized physic, physico-chemically and morphologically. The experimental data on physico-chemical analyzes were analyzed by completely randomized design. Evaluating the results it is observed that the color of the sample powder collected in the drying chamber was darker than that of the cyclone; samples of atemoya powder collected in the drying chamber had a higher moisture content, pH, ascorbic acid, ash, sugars and proteins in relation to the powder samples collected in the cyclone and lower water activity, absolute density and apparent, moreover, the powder of the drying chamber is more soluble, has a higher porosity and large particles than that of the cyclone and in both sticky aggregates are formed. © 2015, Sociedade Brasileira de Fruticultura.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different sources and proportions of organic materials on the growth of guava rootstocks. The experiment was carried out during the period of September 2010 to March 2011, in the Experimental Farm of the Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia da Paraíba, located in the São Gonçalo Irrigated Perimeter, Sousa-PB, northeastern Brazil. It was utilized a randomized complete-blocks experimental design, with the treatments arranged in a 3 x 4 factorial scheme, four replications, and ten plants per experiment unit. To the first factor it was assigned the organic sources (bovine manure, ovine manure, and earthworm humus) and to the second the proportions of these sources in the substrate (0, 20, 40, and 60% v v -1). We evaluated the shoot length, stem diameter, shoot dry mass, root system dry mass, total dry mass, shoot length/stem diameter ratio, shoot dry mass/system dry mass ratio and Dickson quality index. The incorporation of organic sources to substrate influenced in a positive way in the growth of the guava rootstocks. The substrate containing of earthworm humus, in the proportion of 40%, provided the production of rootstocks of higher quality.

About 50 miles off the coast of Florida, deep sea rigs are now drilling for oil. That makes perfect sense. For decades, the U.S. has banned any new offshore drilling, locking that oil away for a rainy day while we imported relatively cheap oil from overseas.
Now, with gas more than $4 per gallon, it's time to tap our domestic resources and send fewer petro-dollars overseas. But there's one problem: It's not American oil companies that are drilling. It's Chinese and Canadian companies, drilling on behalf of Cuba's autocratic government.
That's right. Even as pump prices soar and Americans fume, foreign powers are extracting a natural resource we could be developing for ourselves. The question of whether there will be drilling is settled. The only variable is who will get the fuel and the profits. Will they be sold by American firms or go to foreign markets and companies?
Today's soaring energy prices are, in many ways, our own fault. The federal government saddles energy producers with far too many restrictions and prohibitions. To bring prices down, Washington should step aside and let American firms compete freely with their foreign competitors. Here's a four-point energy action plan:
1) Drill for off-shore oil.Start with oil, because most of our economy does.
The price of crude is soaring because supplies are tight and investors expect them to remain so for years to come. But that doesn't have to be the case. There's plenty of untapped oil right in the United States.
The Interior Department estimates that the Outer Continental Shelf holds more than 19 billion barrels of oil. And this is probably a conservative prediction, since estimates tend to be low. Plus, technology will advance even as we're harvesting that fuel.
2) Tap ANWRCongress has put 17.5 million acres of the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge off-limits to oil companies. Yet by drilling in a tiny portion (2,000 acres - about the size of an American airport) of ANWR, experts believe we could extract 10 billion barrels of oil. It takes us 15 years to import that much oil from Saudi Arabia.
All this oil and gas is off-limits only because we've voluntarily put it off-limits. It's past time to change that.
At the same time, we should be developing other domestic sources of power. After all, gasoline isn't the only energy source we'll need more of in the years ahead.
3) Flip the nuclear switch.Electricity, obviously, is critical to everyday life. Who would want to live without refrigeration, air conditioning, computers and hundreds of other modern devices? We'll need more juice in the decades ahead, and the best way to provide that is with nuclear power. Nukes provide a reliable source of energy with zero emissions. Just ask France, which generates 80 percent of its electricity using nuclear power. Yet the United States has not ordered a new reactor since the mid-1970s. Even if we decided today to start building new reactors, we lack the industrial infrastructure to do so. Again, federal policy has crippled the market.
The nuclear industry is probably the most regulated in the world, yet the federal government doesn't keep up its end of the deal. For example, Washington was legally obligated to start taking charge of all spent nuclear fuel 10 years ago. Yet it never has and, quite possibly, it never will.
Lawmakers should give the nuclear industry the responsibility for handling spent fuel. Washington could still set safety standards, but should allow producers to operate freely as long as they stay within those standards. Lawmakers also should ease licensing standards. Those steps would help open markets and get new plants started.
4) Let markets work.Finally, federal policy-makers should stop trying to pick winners. Since the 1970s, Washington has subsidized "infant" industries such as geothermal, solar and wind. Some 30 years later, not one has panned out, and "alternative" energy sources provide only a tiny portion of America's electrical power.
There may be places where alternative energy makes sense. For example, in Texas, investor T. Boone Pickens is backing a multibillion dollar project that will build the world's largest wind farm. He's building it because the market suggests it will generate both power and profits. That's a model to follow - where there's enough wind to make such a project work.
In short, if we want more energy, lawmakers will have to stop blocking efforts to produce it.
In an election year, politicians like to promise that our country will be "energy independent" soon. It's a worthwhile goal. But we can't even hope to achieve it until politicians stop making energy policy - and start letting American ingenuity find solutions.

Hidden Markov models are traditionally decoded by the Viterbi algorithm which finds the highest probability state path in the model. In recent years, several limitations of the Viterbi decoding have been demonstrated, and new algorithms have been developed to address them (Kall et al., 2005; Brejova et al., 2007; Gross et al., 2007; Brown and Truszkowski,… (More)

Short tandem repeats are ubiquitous in genomic sequences and due to their complex evolutionary history pose a challenge for sequence alignment tools. To better account for the presence of tandem repeats in pairwise sequence alignments, we propose a simple tractable pair hidden Markov model that explicitly models their presence. Using the framework of gain… (More)

Hidden Markov models (HMMs) and their variants were successfully used for several sequence annotation tasks. Traditionally, inference with HMMs is done using the Viterbi and posterior decoding algorithms. However, recently a variety of different optimization criteria and associated computational problems were proposed. In this paper, we consider three HMM… (More)

Search for sequence similarity in large-scale databases of DNA and protein sequences is one of the essential problems in bioinformatics. To distinguish random matches from biologically relevant similarities, it is customary to compute statistical P-value of each discovered match. In this context, P-value is the probability that a similarity with a given… (More)

The Canadian Press
Jan 23, 2017
Representatives from the coastal Tsleil-Waututh and Squamish nations as well as the Coldwater Indian Band near Merritt in B.C.'s Interior, told reporters Jan. 17 that the federal government failed to meaningfully include them in the planning and review process before approving Kinder Morgan Canada's $6.8-billion project.
The controversial expansion would run from near Edmonton to Burnaby, B.C. and would triple the existing pipeline's capacity. It is also expected to increase tanker traffic seven-fold within the densely populated Burrard Inlet.
Chief Lee Spahan of the Coldwater Indian Band said he has serious concerns over the government's decision to approve a route that poses unacceptable risks to his community's drinking water, should the Coldwater Valley watershed be contaminated.
"The Crown acknowledged if there were a spill or release from the pipeline, it would be impossible to remediate our aquifer to potable standards," Spahan said. "In other words, we would never be able to drink our water again."
Spahan said Kinder Morgan identified a safer, albeit more costly, alternative route but withdrew the option from the National Energy Board's consideration without consulting or notifying the Coldwater nation.
"For Coldwater, this is about our drinking water. It is our Standing Rock," he said, referencing the high-profile protests in the United States against a pipeline the Standing Rock Sioux say threatens their water supply.
The federal government did not respond to requests for comment.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau approved the Trans Mountain project last November with 157 conditions that were laid out by the National Energy Board. He said he expects the decision to be "bitterly disputed," but ultimately it is in Canada's best interest.
Squamish Chief Ian Campbell described the federal government's efforts at consultation as little more than lip service.
"We talk about an era of reconciliation but we do not see the actions that go with that," Campbell said.
"We're at a milestone in Canadian history, an opportunity to mature as a society where the old status quo will no longer be acceptable, that of a colonial imposition to run roughshod over aboriginal rights and title within our own homelands and waters."
Elected councillor Charlene Aleck of the Tsleil-Waututh said at least five First Nations have filed legal challenges since Trans Mountain received federal approval.
In an emailed statement, Kinder Morgan said it has been working with Coldwater since 2013 with discussions focusing on rights and title, as well as the environment, including protecting the nation's water source.
"We share the same objective of ensuring the construction and operation of the project minimizes impacts to the environment and, specifically, the Coldwater aquifer," the email reads.
On its website, Kinder Morgan says it has signed 51 community benefits agreements with First Nations worth more than $400 million, including all the First Nations whose reserves the pipeline crosses and 80 per cent of the First Nations in close proximity to the project.
But Campbell said buy-in from one nation does not equate to buy-in from all.
"We are distinct First Nations across Canada," he said.
"We are responsible for decisions within our own homelands and waters. Therefore, the one third or so of First Nations that have signed on, that is their choice, their autonomy to make those decisions within their own territories."
Recently, the B.C. government gave its blessing to the project after securing a revenue-sharing agreement with the federal government that could see the province bring in more than $1 billion over 20 years.

View Poll Results: Vote Today For Todd Crawford!

- 54. You may not vote on this poll
Every day Todd should read and respond to our questions
Once a week Todd should read and respond to all our questions over the last week.
Once a month Todd should read and respond to all of our questions over the last month.
Todd's a busy guy. Perhaps CJ should assign someone who has more time to assist us with our questions and concerns.
This vote is a waste of time...it won't change a thing.

Okay, a bit of sensationalism to get you to read this, but I do want your vote and it is a vote about Todd Crawford.
Over a year ago I thought Todd did a pretty good job of responding to our questions here at ABW. I guess I came to expect that type of service. Lately, though, I sense that many people (I know I am one) are disappointed with the amount of time he spends here, his choice of questions to answer and the degree to which he answers.
Perhaps this is the new Todd.
Perhaps this is the new CJ business model.
Perhaps we should have a vote to let Todd and CJ know what we expect or I guess, what we hope for.
Please vote.

I always thought is was absurd for him to come respond to all the negative comments about CJ...and the never ending "conpiracy theories" most so blatantly propose
You still can't figure out why he so vigorously jumped on the CJ v. Performics thread?
Possibly it hit a nerve?
Have you thought how CJ must be looking at all this? Is there that great of incentive to be active here...unless there was a real threat of affiliates leaving CJ for the competition?
Hi Connie
It was Connie who initially responded to the Performics thread. From what I've heard, she's one of the top earners in the affiliate world.
For such a statement from her saying there is a significant difference in tracking CJ v. Performics ... why wouldn't Tod speak up?
I don't think Tod wants to talk about parasites, or the other things he considers our "conspiracy theories"... Probably no more than he would listen to the Art Bell radio program on a regular basis.
Yes, he's got a new wife...drives nice motorbikes...and collects expensive wine. Maybe if he didn't know what real fun was, he'd be here more often.

Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
Todd Crawford is a Vice President of one of the top two (or is it now three) affiliate networks in the world. Anyone who expects him to be here regularly as a participant really should allow some realism back into their life.
[edited to add: The reason I say top two networks is simply because for some years now, both Performics and BeFree have publically stated that they are NOT affiliate networks.]
Over the years, the United States has sent many of its fine young men and women into great peril to fight for freedom beyond our borders. The only amount of land we have ever asked for in return is enough to bury those that did not return.

I don't see any reason why Todd should come here and much less any reason he should answer any questions. Expecting him here is a complete joke. Abestweb.com is not cj.com. abestweb.com does not sign Todds paycheck. Todd probably has one or two other affiliates out there in the world of affiliate marketing that deserve his attention just as much as we abestwebbers. I've even heard there were other affiliate marketing communities like abestweb though I don't have a need to find any.
June 2nd, 2003, 07:54 PM #6

I do not disagree with you. I guess my point would be if he can't be here regularly, can't respond fairly to all posts written, partially answers a question, beats around the bush with his answers or does not follow up on a question....well, he should just not answer at all.
I've suggested to him in PM that if he does not have the time to do this properly, he should perhaps form a focus group; a group of affiliates he selects to meet once a month in a chat of sorts to discuss current issues of the month. He or they could then report on the information discussed and any outcomes that may come of it. His response...
Good idea but i don't have the bandwidth to organize something like this right now.
Now isn't this the same guy who criticized us for complaining about the CJ spider using up bandwidth?

remember how it used to was: the forum at CJU got so critical, justified or not, that it is no longer there.
I would hate to think that CJ's participation here depended on only happy thoughts and warm fuzzies being directed to them.
I think Someone should be paid by CJ to make a regular presence here before the threads get too vitriolic. Maybe someone with inside information, too.

I suggested this very thing to CJ, that they have someone here assigned to relay information from affiliates to CJ and respond with CJ's feedback. I was told that it would be inapropriate for someone who does not represent CJ be a voice here. I guess I have to agree with that one.

CJ could certainly designate someone within the company to represent them to ABW. That person could advise CJ management about current topics and concerns, and provide CJ's official response here at ABW.
I understand Todd being too busy to visit ABW every day, and I certainly do not expect him to. However, when take it upon yourself to act as a messenger or provider of information, it looks bad when that information is inaccurate or incomplete, or when topics of importance to ABW members go ignored.
CJ canned their own message boards because they couldn't stand the heat. ABW is a thorn in their side, and they would most likely prefer that ABW just go away. So they monitor us and intervene to do damage control when they see fit.

Everyone (including Todd) would be best served by designating someone at CJ (who gives a crap), who will look in here at ABW. This person can help where they can (like Sarah from Linkshare), or be a little more empowered (like Scott) from BeFree.
It would obviously be great if someone responsible would come here and address every post with an "I'm on it!", and an answer in short order, but is that realistic?
I wish we had what amounts to an internal "Champion" or advocate at CJ.
Just wish it was something. It occurs to me, that after an initial Sh*tstorm, things would settle down to a workable level. If someone (like Todd) comes in here every week or two, he is simply going to get blasted by those folks that are upset - it will never be a constructive relationship - IMHO.

Todd's comments were very helpful.
He should ignore the cage rattlers and just provide his responses to the professionals.
Thanks Todd.

There are just far too many flaming rants against CJ for anyone to expect them to make regular appearances. Too many of them go round and round, and by the time they finally peter out, someone else starts a similar thread and the whole cycle begins again.
Todd seems like a decent guy. I'm sure he wants to do the right thing. But it seems like a poor allocation of scarce resources to spend significant time poring over the ABW boards to respond to rants and raves. As I've said before, it's tough to keep smiling if you keep getting kicked in the teeth.

I just started posting to this forum, but I have been reading the responses over the last several months.
I feel that CJ has an obligation (and should have motivation) to listen to its affiliates, especially such a voice as abestweb. But, in their defense, asking Todd to read all the negativity and find the appropriate posts to react too, is a bit much.
I was involved with a similar situation in the telecom industry. Agents had a message board that was created to post comments/questions for the carrier. The problem was, the message board became entirely too counter-productive to monitor and post replies. Although there were valid points that needed attention, finding them was difficult.
We established one point of contact (a moderator for the agents) that then emailed valid, well-defined questions/problems to the carrier. The message board was used to get all the agents input on a given issue, then, once completely explained, that comment/question/criticism was sent to the contact at the carrier.
We found this to work rather well.
Challenge is still the same, getting a CJ contact that is in position to answer and can make things happen. I believe I have seen Haiko get responses from people (although I am not suggesting that Haiko be responsible for this)
But, perhaps asking CJ to respond/reply to Abestweb's consolidated opinions/requests may be easier for them to accept and act on than reviewing these posts.

Most ABWers have not been around this industry long enough to appreciate even hearing from Todd -Scott or a LS representative. Total silence was the rule before CJ made the bold move to boot out the CPC crowd and establish EPC. Too late now for they to have listened to me beg them to also give the phoney "lead" merchants and "incnet" Dupers to boot too.

With the 1-800 number, now all you get is an opportunity to leave a message. With this forum, imo, Todd has decreased his activity here for the same reason they don't respond to phone calls, and as he tactfully has hinted in some of his posts; CJ WANTS EVERYONE TO USE THE HELP FEATURE IN THE ACCOUNT MANAGER!
Sorry for yelling, but I do believe that is what they are trying to say, including Todd. That way the responding to affiliate issues can be delegated away to his 'do boys', and a record is kept. Some of the posts here can be a liability trap just waiting to be sprung. I would imagine he has work to do. This, of course, is IMHO.

CJ wants people to use their help feature so they can provide us with the same tired canned responses I've come to expect from Todd & a seemingly corrupt network...so why bother?
June 3rd, 2003, 10:50 AM #19
Thank you all for your votes and comments. The votes are MOST interesting. Your comments are close to what I expected and in one way or another I have to say I agree with them all.
There does not seem to be any perfect way for people to communicate with CJ (or Todd with us). What bothers me and many others is that getting your message answered here by Todd seems to be a luck of the draw (getting it posted on the rare days he shows up) or complaining real loud about COC violations. I recently bumped a question for two weeks straight hoping Todd might visit us and be curious of what I was asking. He finally did, asked me what the question again was again (guess he did not want to look) and when I responded, he ignored it. It was a simple question, not setting him in any way, one that I was not getting answered correctly at AAQ. It's stuff like this that really is bad CJ/Publisher PR.
Communication is also a problem for the Advertisers (merchants). I spoke by phone this week to the AM of one of CJ's newer advertisers and was told that they have been frustated getting answers from CJ (and they have a direct line of communication).
Hopefully Todd and the powers to be at CJ can read our posts, realize communication is a big problem and that they really need to work on a solution.
The lack of responses here from CJ often appears as a lack of interest. I strongly urge those who would like better communication to send your suggestions to CJ, either by mail, email or Ask A Questions (or all three).
I plan to submit the following suggestions:
1. CJ selects an individual to be their ABW listener and and person who responds to our posts. Now to be fair, certain topics can be off limits (those that always end up in flame wars here). Perhaps they come here once a week, every Wednesday let's say, and comment only on the more active topics related to CJ. Responses to us are made and we have to wait until next Wednesday to get more answers. At least it is something we can depend on. Also, as they only respond to the more active topics, I know I would feel they are answering the hot issues, not just picking the ones on the day they happen to stop by ABW.
2. If Todd is to visit and correspond with us, perhaps he could follow up on the hot topics that our CJ rep has identified...either to clarify or expound on what has been said. Make it regular though Todd, if you plan to do this example. Can you set aside 30 minutes a week for us? Read and respond...come back next week...do it again. Don't keep going on one topic until you beat it to death. You'll never win. LOL
3. Improve the communication system at the CJ website. The current message box on my CJ home screen has been unchanged for weeks. Sometimes stuff is up there for over a month. First, put up the date the announcement was posted. Second, put a link at bottom of box for past announcements.
4. Minor things:
a. When you send out deactivated advertisers, how hard is it to put their name in the email? You only do a few a week.
b. How about a suggestion box at CJ for our wish lists for the next version of CJ? There were many areas of CJ 6.0 that had problems when it was released. Many suggestions placed here, some fixed, others seem ignored. How about an offical place where we can point out flaws and areas we would like improved. It's just another form of communication would find helpful.
These are just my ideas...I encourage the rest of you to speak up and communicate with CJ directly with your ideas. We have no guarantee our messages here are being heard, so do contact them directly.
Sorry to be so long winded. I just feel a company as big as CJ should be doing a better job of communicating with its affiliates (and merchants).

My suggestion is - Don't get obsessed with fixing CJ. When they want our help, they will ask.
June 3rd, 2003, 02:45 PM #21
You can't expect Todd to get involved in every argument or thread about CJ. Those who follow GoogleGuy's posts at Webmasterworld will understand.. it's useful to CJ to monitor affiliates' discussions and issues and to offer information when necessary.
I have to say though I object to the personal angle that complaints about Todd (and other liaisons elsewhere) tend to have. Please try to show some respect if you want want to maintain a useful dialog. The last thing we want is for Todd and CJ to not bother interacting because they're continually getting flamed.

NBA goes on the offense against players
Credit: AP
The NBA opted for not one but two moves on the chessboard of litigation Tuesday, filing claims against the players' association with the National Labor Relations Board and a separate action in federal court in New York.
This came less than a day after NBA Commissioner David Stern questioned whether the players were negotiating in good faith after a nearly three-hour session Monday between the sides. It was their first official meeting since the NBA locked out its players July 1.
In filings in federal district court, the league alleged Tuesday that the National Basketball Players Association has "threatened on more than two dozen occasions to abandon or renounce its role as the exclusive bargaining representative of NBA players."
Adam Silver, NBA deputy commissioner, said, "These claims were filed in an effort to eliminate the use of impermissible pressure tactics by the union which are impeding the parties' ability to negotiate a new collective bargaining agreement."
Just call it a race to embrace the high ground of good-faith bargaining. The players union shot back on that issue, and others, with an edgy response from Executive Director Billy Hunter.
"The litigation tactics of the NBA today are just another example of their bad-faith bargaining and we will seek the complete dismissal of the actions as they are totally without merit," Hunter said in a statement. "The NBA Players Association . . . has been engaged in good faith bargaining with the NBA for over two years.
"We urge the NBA to engage with us at the bargaining table and to use more productively the short time we have left before the 2011-12 season is seriously jeopardized."
The NBA has said the league lost more than $300 million last season and it wants a significant reduction in players' salaries. The union objects to a big pay cut and a hard salary cap.
Legal experts said the NBA's legal moves were a preemptive strike and smart venue shopping. The suit was filed in the 2nd Circuit, an often-friendly NBA venue and known to be pro-employer.
"They're going on the offensive here, rather than playing defense," said Dan Lazaroff, a professor at Loyola Law School, specializing in sports labor issues.
Said Dana Kravetz, managing partner of Michelman & Robinson and a specialist in employment counseling and litigation: "Given the potential threat of (union) decertification, it's an aggressive move. ...
"Getting into court first is sometimes the name of the game, and you're dealing with the 2nd Circuit (which) has been somewhat favorable when it comes to the NBA and issues of antitrust. It's an aggressive move but none of it stops the negotiations from still going on."
Stern, in an interview Tuesday with ESPN, was asked why the unfair-labor-practice charge was filed against the players union.
"Because they're not serious about making a deal with the NBA," he said. "They're so busy talking about their decertification strategy, following the lead of their attorney Jeffrey Kessler, who did it for the NFL players.
"And engaging in conversations with agents about it and talking about it constantly ... is distracting them from getting serious in making a deal."
One of the more succinct reactions, from the players, came from Philadelphia 76ers center Spencer Hawes on his Twitter feed.
"Nice waking up to see we were being sued by our employers today for failing to agree to an $8 billion giveback and decade-long pay freeze," said Hawes.

FTC Comes Out Swinging in Defense of Tesla Motors; Singles Out Missouri, New Jersey
Brandon Hill
May 20, 2014 9:00 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
The FTC takes another stand against "harmful" laws forbidding direct-to-consumer auto sales
It looks as though Tesla Motors has some friends in high places. Just last month,
three Federal Trade Commission (FTC) directors wrote a blog post
in which they blasted states that have implemented laws to
forbid Tesla from selling cars directly to the public
"In this case and others, many state and local regulators have eliminated the direct purchasing option for consumers, by taking steps to protect existing middlemen from new competition," wrote the directors in April. "We believe this is bad policy."
Now the FTC staff has issued a press release that
singles out Missouri
New Jersey for their bans on direct-to-consumers auto sales bans
. The FTC's Office of Policy Planning, Bureau of Competition, and Bureau of Economics note that both states "operate as a special protection for [independent motor vehicle dealers] – a protection that is likely harming both competition and consumers."
The FTC singles out the abuse of Tesla in particular, stating:
The prohibitions on direct sales in Missouri and New Jersey particularly affect Tesla Motors, a relatively new entrant in the auto market that has been prevented from selling directly to consumers, the staff comment states. But their effects are likely more far-reaching.
The FTC goes on to conclude that the legislatures for the states of Missouri and New Jersey should "permit manufacturers and consumers to reengage the normal competitive process that prevails in most other industries."
We have the feeling that
National Auto Dealers Association
(NADA) won't take too kindly to the strong wording from the FTC. When the FTC's pro-Tesla blog was posted last month, the NADA responded by claiming that "the fierce competition between local dealers in a given market drives down prices both in and across brands" and that "buying a car isn't like buying a pair of shoes online. Cars require licensing to operate, insurance and financing to take home, and contain hazardous materials, so states are fully within their rights to protect consumers by standardizing the way cars are sold."
The NADA, which represents
nearly 16,000 auto dealerships and 32,000 franchise locations
, will likely also respond to the latest comments from the FTC, and we will provide you with an update once a statement is provided.

Muslim preacher to sue after collapse of sham weddings case
AN imam who was accused of conducting nearly 600 sham marriages is planning to sue the Home Office after walking free from court.
Mohammed Mattar, 62, was cleared after the case collapsed due to paperwork blunders and is poised to launch a huge compensation claim, saying he has been put through "two years of hell".
Mr Mattar was accused of conducting 580 sham marriages between Muslim men and European brides between 2008 and 2012.
The marriages are alleged to have helped non-EU men win the right to remain permanently in Britain.
The case collapsed after the Home Office failed to hand over paperwork on time – leading to prosecutors missing deadlines to disclose material to Mr Mattar's lawyers.
Afterwards Mr Mattar said: "This has been going on for over two years.
"It's been hell.
"I'm discussing what action I am taking with my lawyers.
"This has upset my family greatly, it has affected me psychologically, my wife has been left worried the police will come to the house every day."
Last night, Jonathan Isaby, chief executive of the TaxPayers' Alliance, said: "This whole fiasco has been a complete waste of money, and officials in charge of our justice system must do better."
The Home Office said: "We have reviewed the case with the CPS and both parties have agreed there are lessons to be learned to prevent something similar happening again."
Ukip migration spokesman Steven Woolfe said: "This case has highlighted an ever increasing problem.
"There has been a rise in sham marriages within the black economy.
"Loopholes are being exploited by criminal gangs to profit from the poorest and most vulnerable in our society."
Just days ago Britain's biggest sham marriage case collapsed against a vicar amid allegations of misconduct by border officials.
We carried out up to three marriages a month, charging £100. They were for people who wanted to be married under Islamic law
Ugandan-born clergyman Rev Nathan Ntege, 55, walked free when a judge halted the case after 31 days.
Three Home Office staff have been suspended after officers at the heart of the prosecution were accused of lying on oath.
Mr Mattar, from Kilburn, north London, a preacher at the Dar Al Dawa Islamic Centre in west London, denied conspiring to facilitate a breach of UK immigration law.
Mr Mattar – whose son Ismail is a serving officer with the Metropolitan Police – said: "We carried out up to three marriages a month, charging £100.
"They were for people who wanted to be married under Islamic law.
"Once we had the ceremony they went to the council and registered it there.
"We have never broken the law."

Expert: Real estate boom in Dubai to continue
Ahmad Saeed, The general manager of Al-Fatan Real Estate Company, which participated at the International Real Estate and Investment Show 2005, estimates that the real estates boom in Dubai will last for the next several years, with the growing needs in large areas for offices, commercial stores and housing units.
He said that Al-Fatan has 500 requests in its waiting list for purchasing of commercial offices from local and international companies, and unfortunately it can not meet all of them at present, reported the Emirates newspaper, Al-Bayan. Saeed added that the permission to foreign people to own real estates in Dubai contributed to the boom it faces now.
According to Saeed, his company intends to accomplish large real estate projects during the next five years by total costs of Dh 5 billion ($1.36 billion) in the Emirate of Dubai. During next September the company will accomplish the Marine Towers project, which includes two towers of 51 floors each. The sales of the project's units surpass the exceptions, according to Saeed, and expected to end in April. The company intends also to start building Saif resort and hotel in the Palm Island, which will be accomplished within 20 months and is offered in a tender at present.
The company will also accomplish apartment tower of 50 floors, and office tower of 15 floors, to be ready in 2007. It is possible to pay for these projects in installments through "Amlak" company, while 20% is paid in cash and 80% is paid through a period ranged between 15 to 20 years.

"Almost all of the philosophical truths that I have come to know and understand I have learned from Aristotle," says Mortimer J. Adler. This easy-to-listen-to exposition of Aristotle's thoughts about nature, human actions, and the conduct of life confirms convictions that most of us hold, though we may not be fully aware of them. This is because Aristotle's philosophical insights are grounded in the common experience we all possess and because they illuminate the common sense we all rely on.
Philosophy is everybody's business. It deepens our understanding of the knowledge we already have about ourselves, our society, and the world in which we live. With the proper guidance, all of us can experience success and great satisfaction from this effort of understanding, and in this, no better guide can be found than Aristotle.
©1978 Mortimer J. Adler (P)1993 Blackstone Audio, Inc.
"This is a self-help book in the best sense of the term.... The Aristotelian wisdom Adler affords us goes far beyond anything all the Norman Vincent Peales, Michael Kordas, and Wayne W. Dyers combined have to offer. Above all, Adler once again demonstrates that philosophy, real philosophy, can actually be useful." (Chicago Tribune Book World)
"Davidson has a wonderful voice. Far from common, it's a genuinely erudite English actor's voice. His sound is classy and classical." (AudioFile)
"Incredibly well read"
This is actually the first audio book I have listened to over and over (at least a few chapters 5 times). Chapters 12-15 (Audible's numbering) should be required reading for every member of human race. They deal with why we should live well, virtues and vices, making good choices. It amazes me, though it probably shouldn't, that Aristotle was thinking of things like the nature of love and friendship, family, government in 400 BC.
I also cannot say too much about Frederick Davidson, who has become my favorite narrator. He seems to completely understand the subject matter, which means we listeners are given a great advantage. He paces the text perfectly and puts the right emphasis on the complex parts which helps them sink in.
Don't be afraid of it. This really is an outstanding piece of work.
"A great primer in classical philosophy"
You either like Dr. Adler, or you hate him. A good experiment to tell whether or not you have a problem with intellectual hubris is to read one of his books and see how much it raises your blood pressure. He takes a very didactic tone, and if you don't like that, you'd better find somewhere else to get your primer in Aristotelian thought. Unfortunately, I think the choice of narrator may exacerbate this--the nasal tone with British accent and drawn out inflection may stir unconscious prejudices of snobbishness.
However, if you can swallow your ego for a few hours and listen to this book, you will be rewarded! It may even cause you to rethink some of your basic assumptions/ideas about reality. The chapter on logic and argumentation was great! (though, admittedly, I had to pause quite often to allow my brain to catch up with the various propositions, etc...)
I'm an Adler fan, so I admit my bias here, but I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to dive into Aristotelian conceptions of physics and metaphysics, ethics, politics, and theology.
"Excellent introduction to philosophical thinking."
Aristotle is represented well, concisely and in such a way as to train the listener to think more clearly.
The narrator, in combination with the writing style of Mr. Adler's, made the entire audiobook sound very condescending. If a book is meant to be written for everybody to understand, it should be narrated in a way that doesn't talk down to everybody.
The content was it's saving grace. I've been studying Aristotle for quite some time, and this smoothed out and clarified my understanding of his philosophical system.
"Kill me now!"
Circular and rhetorical
He is utterly annoying
The narrator
So disappointed in this book. I tried to give it a chance, I really did, but after 2 hrs it made me want to gouge my ears out with a fork. I can't overemphasize how utterly annoying the narration is! And the writing? It just goes on and on in circles. Please make it stop!
"One of the best summaries of Aristotle"
It organizes Aristotle very well which the lecture notes that we have of his do not.

Scott Taylor Wins BorgWarner Cup for the Second Time
Only 2WD Winner Does It Again!
Belvidere, IL (September 2, 2008) - Scott Taylor and his #8 Skyjacker Suspensions Russ Wernimont Designs BFGoodrich Ford F-150 made its second trip of the year, to Crandon International Off-Road Raceway. The team was looking for some good "home cooking" to get their race program back on track. The 39th annual Borg Warner Off-Road World Championships at the "Big House" was just what Scott Taylor needed, as he continued to rewrite the Crandon history books.
The familiar red, white and blue Skyjacker Ford F-150 has only raced the two events in the Midwest, both Crandon events, as Taylor Racing committed to compete in the West Coast based CORR series. Scott and his team were glad to be back around familiar faces and friends, on the hallowed grounds of this historic track.
After the Friday morning, parade and driver's meeting in downtown Crandon, qualifying for the BorgWarner Heavy Metal Shootout took place. Scott Taylor set a new PRO-2WD lap record with a time of 1 minute 25.23 seconds. His time broke a seven year old record by more than one second.
Saturday -Round XI
The starting grid had Scott and his Skyjacker Ford start in the back row. This was due to the limited WSORR schedule Taylor Racing had run. The start saw Scott put the RoushYates horsepower to his BFGoodrich tires launching his #8 Ford past all, but two competitors, as the field came out of Forest County Potawatomi Turn One. After one lap, Scott got around #10 Waldvogel for second, with his sites set on the leader, #21 Hoek. With about three laps to go, the third place truck, #17 Renezeder, made contact with the #8 Skyjacker Ford, puncturing the left rear tire. This slowed Scott's pace allowing Renezeder to take the position. Undaunted, Scott kept the pedal to the metal, as the tire began to shred. Fortunately the tire's inner liner held up, giving the Skyjacker Suspension RWD BFGoodrich Tire Ford F-150 a third place finish.
Overnight chief engineer, Russ Wernimont, crew chief Mike Kasch, and Scott Taylor came up with a few changes to their #8 hot rod, in the hopes of gaining more top speed, out of the Skyjacker BFG Ford.
Sunday - Round XII
Once again, Scott and his #8 Skyjacker Suspensions Russ Wernimont Designs BFGoodrich Ford F-150 were lined up at the back of the pack. The land rush start saw #21 Hoek grab the holeshot with Scott coming through the first turn in fifth place. Then Scott went to work on the field. The BFGoodrich tires were putting all the RoushYates horsepower to good use. By lap five, Scott got up to the leader, #21 Hoek, and made the pass for the lead. At the finish it was Scott Taylor - 1st, Mike Oberg- 2nd, and Rhonda Konitzer- 3rd.
"The last week we have really made some progress getting this new truck package to work better," remarked Scott Taylor. "Then last night we changed a sway bar, and made a carburetor and intake manifold change that's better suited for fast tracks like Crandon. It really lets this new RoushYates engine really breathe."
BorgWarner Heavy Metal Shootout
The final race of the day was the BorgWarner Heavy Metal Shootout. As in year's past, the two-wheel drive competitors get a head start over the four wheel drive counterparts.
The polesitter, Scott Taylor, immediately jumped into the lead when the green flag fell. The #8 Skyjacker Suspensions RWD BFGoodrich Tires Ford F- 150 was a rocket ship. When #17 Renezeder and #99 Probst got tangled together in the Argonne Corner, Russ radioed to Scott to really get on that RoushYates engine, to widen the gap on the competition.
Then on lap two, in the same area, the four wheel drive leader, #4 Greaves, got caught up into another truck, rolling several times. Before track workers could get to the truck, two more race trucks, piled into the upside down Greaves. The Argonne Corner could have been named Carnage Corner, with all the damaged trucks that were limping back to the pits. While all of this was going on, Scott kept pushing the limits of his Skyjacker Ford.
On lap five, Russ radioed to Scott that his lead over second place was over fifteen seconds. Realizing that any threat from a four wheel drive truck was gone, Scott backed off slightly, keeping second place at bay, ensuring his second BorgWarner trophy, and the first one for Skyjacker Suspensions.
Scott Taylor is the only two-wheel drive driver to win the BorgWarner. The reigning WSORR PRO-2WD champion accomplished the feat in 2002, and once again this year.
A jubilant Scott Taylor talked about the road to his historic victory;
We built a new truck this year and have struggled quite a bit all season. We committed to run the West Coast series, and race both Crandon events. We have tried all types of things to get this truck to perform. Changes in shocks, springs, engines, any thing we could think of. Within the last couple of weeks, we made great strides. We switched to King Shocks and their engineers came out to help with the setup. RoushYates built us an awesome engine that puts us up front. Russ, Mike, and I have never given up, and it's finally paying dividends."
"I need to thank Skyjacker Suspensions, BFGoodrich Tires, Ford Trucks, Russ Wernimont Designs, Justice Brothers, Miller Electric, and everyone else on the side of the truck. I must thank the World Series of Off-Road Racing for continuing the tradition of short course off- road racing, with the incredible support from the Forest County Potawatomi community, Lucas Oil, BorgWarner, Traxxas, the Crandon community, and all the volunteers that make this race track what it is."
Scott Taylor's next race: September 13-14, Championship Off-Road Racing at the QUARRY, Chula Vista, California.

My 19 yr old son is on Remeron 30 mg at night. He takes it @ 9 pm and is asleep by 10 pm. He gets up in the morning around 9-10 am but is exhausted and will doze off and on all day. Is this normal?
Does Remeron make you overly tired?

Hello missyjojo. Normal in as fatigue, drowsiness, sleepy are normal side effects to taking Remeron/Mirtazapine. Once awaken, a drug hangover type of symptom is also considered common and normal. I suggest that his dose be adjusted, lessened (if possible). This might very possibly rectify the issue. The longer a person is on Remeron, most side effects will lessen and or diminish. Regards pledge
I would sleep on and off at nights. And nap here and there all day long on 30mg a day - or dose off even while i was lounging around with friends. My sleepiness went away after I was titrated to 60mg (but the higher dosage made me really much hungrier than on the low 30mg dose)

Top Lane
Vi Build
Mid Game
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Hey guys, this guide is about Vi, the Piltover Enforcer. I got her when she came out and LOVE playing as her and hope to share some about her through this. As I play her more and learn more about her I will further update the guide.
Who and Why?
Vi, the Piltover Enforcer is the partner of Caitlyn the Piltover City Sheriff. Vi is newly released and is over powered and I expect a nerf will be coming her way soon, however she is extremely fun to play as. Vi is a melee bruiser and can go top lane or even jungle. She has a wonderful jungle clear time if you are interested in that.
Vi is a melee champion and excels in top lane. She has a weak early game but flourishes in mid to late game. Vi can even serve exceptionally well as a solo top lane champion. She is very flexible in her roles and her damage output is VERY high at the moment.
Pros and Cons
High Damage Out-Put
Several Viable Roles
Natural Escape/Gap Closer
Over Powered
Banned Often
Soon To Be Nerfed
Easily Focused
People WILL Queue Dodge When She Is Played
Still A Little Rough Around The Edges
Blast Shield
Vi charges a shield over time. The shield can be activated by hitting an enemy with an ability.
Vault Breaker
Vi charges her gauntlets and unleashes a vault shattering punch, carrying her forward. Enemy champions that Vi collides with stop her movement and are knocked back.
Denting Blows
Vi's punches break her opponent's armor, dealing bonus damage and granting her attack speed.
Excessive Force
Vi's next attack blasts through her target, dealing damage to enemies behind it.
Assault and Battery
Vi runs down an enemy, knocking aside anyone in the way. When she reaches her target she knocks it into the air, jumps after it, and slams it back into the ground.
Summoner Spells
I prefer to take Flash/Ignite, a common combo on the battlefield. Flash allows for an ADDITIONAL escape or entrance/gap closer. Ignite just adds to that additional damage out-put and also allows kill security if an enemy tries to run away and your gap closers are on cool-down.
Optional Summoner Spells
Allows to better initiation of ganks.
Allows Vi to become even more over powered in comparison to her enemies.
Drops armor and magic resit with Summoners Wrath on the Masteries Page.
Allows for a speed boost.
Another Gap Closer/Initiator.
