4 Years Later...I have used many other hair dryers. This one, by far, is the best. Very long cord as a plus, and one of the reasons I bought this dryer was because it has the ability to have cool blast on permanence - meaning you don't have to constantly hold down a cool button - super annoying. I have thin, fine hair. I have to be gentle with the heat, but my hair is stubborn and doesn't like to straighten or STAY straight. I have absolutely NO Use for my flat iron anymore! I straighten my bangs daily, and have damage, but it's minimal - because I use a proper heat spray and use this dryer daily on the same parts of my hair, which shockingly, I am still able to grow out my bangs without difficulty. I also LOVE using the diffuser attachment on this as my hair is naturally very wavy/curly. I've had very short hair, and medium to longer, and in between and the diffuser attachment has been awesome, as well as the direction nozzle. I originally purchased this dryer because a well known curly on NC.com recommended it. I was hesitant, but man am I glad I took the risk!
I have had this dryer in three different climates ranging from moderately humid to minimal humidity, and this dryer has served me incredibly well in all climates. This keeps my hair smooth, shiny, and straight if I want it straight but gives me lots of body and volume if I work the dryer the right way. This is something that other dryers have failed at. This dryer also has a great range of heat capacities - can be used really hot, or the cool button, and the fan to blow the air out is really strong.
I am also VERY hard on my equipment. I've dropped this, gotten it wet, pieces have broken off, etc., and this dryer somehow still works through all the abuse I've put it through. I've had this product for close to four years now, and it's still going strong. There may be dryers with more reviews, that look prettier, but I will repurchase this one if it becomes defective.Dec 20, 2014StephHAIR TYPELight Brown / Oily Hair / Dry Hair / Curly Hair / Color Treated Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

Best Dryer I've Ever Used!I've been using this dryer for a couple weeks now and I am really happy with it!
I have naturally curly/wavy hair, so I was looking for a dryer with both a diffuser and a concentrator so that I could achieve both wavy and straight looks. Also I was looking for multiple speed/heat settings so that I could style both looks.
When blowing my hair out straight, I use the concentrator on high speed, high heat. I'm done quicker than it used to take with my last dryer, which I purchased at a beauty supply store. ALSO it seems quieter. The results are great! My hair is very shiny with no frizz. It only requires a few pass throughs with the flat iron afterwards - much less as compared to my last dryer. I suspect that if my hair was slightly less naturally wavy, no flat iron would be required. However, your hair really does get very hot, so take care.
When using the diffuser on my natural waves, the results are also really great and my hair is left very shiny. I use low speed but high heat and I'm done in minutes. Previously, I was using a more bowl-shaped diffuser so I was concerned that the flat shape of this one would not encourage the curls in the same way. I was wrong! It's great; it does not blow the curls all over the place. It's also nice that the cool shot button doesn't require you to hold it down.
The cord is plenty long, and I don't find the dryer to be too heavy. All-in-all, I am really happy with it. It really does yield different, BETTER, results than you would get from a drugstore or beauty supply store dryer. I think it's worth the investment - great results and time savings!Mar 9, 2012Tracie / HoustonHAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Curly Hair

Fantastic!This dryer creates beautiful smooth hair in just a few minutes. I have really thick hair which normally take an hour to blow dry. With this dryer, it took 15 minutes and the results were amazing and my hair was soft and smooth. I recommend this dryer for anyone who wants to salon results at home.Jan 3, 2012KattHAIR TYPEBlack / Oily Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair

Don't Buy This HairdryerI bought this hairdryer based on all the reviews. My warranty just expired and the hair dryer stopped working. I just called FHI and they want 60 dollars to look at it. I am really unhappy with their service considering the price for this dryer. Save your money. I bought a T3 bespoke and that still works after 5 years. I only upgraded because of the reviews. DO MORE RESEARCH and don't buy this one.Aug 29, 2011Karen B.

2nd Return - Not Worth The Money Or The Inconvenience!This hairdryer works well when it works - however, I just received the replacement for the 1st one I ordered that only worked for 3 days before it had no heat and this one has only worked 3 times and now has no heat.
Folica honors their guarantee, but the inconvenience of returning, waiting without a hairdryer, and then receiving another one that doesn't work just isn't worth it.
Unfortunately I will have to purchase a hairdryer locally. At least if I have a problem I won't be without one for two weeks at a time.Jul 29, 2011Barbara T.HAIR TYPECurly Hair / Color Treated Hair

Have To Keep Returning ItThis is my second FHI pro 2000 I have to return 1 already because the heat stops working after 2 or 3 uses. I have to return the 2nd one again because it just stopped working. I guess this is what I get for spending so much money on a hairdryer. While the thing blows hot it works very well.
Thank goodness Folica honors their guarantee!Jul 8, 2011CandiceHAIR TYPECurly Hair

Beautiful Performance!I have thin, fine wavy-curly hair that is hard to straighten, and easy to damage. I was looking for a dryer that would decrease my damage and be healthier on my hair, came with a diffuser, had a cool shot button I didn't have to constantly hold down, and that worked well with curly hair for diffusing but could straighten really good as well.
This dryer is really high powered- I have no idea what the previous reviewer was talking about when they said it doesn't get hot enough. It really does take less time to dry. I love the fact that this dryer has a cool shot button that you do not need to constantly press to get cool air- there is also an option next to the warm and hot settings to have it be on cool air despite also having a cool shot button all you have to do is click- which is extremely hard to find in dryers, even professional ones. Definitely quieter than a drug store dryer, and quieter than any other professional dryer that's been used on me in the past at salons (like babyliss, salano, rusk speed freak, etc).
I have used three settings for straightening to see what works best- hot/high speed, hot/low speed, warm/high speed, and warm/low speed- and I am shocked! Because with the warm heat setting on low power, my hair was straighter with blow drying than any other time I've been to the salon and they did it on high heat and high speed! It felt much less fried that usual, and I had no triangle frizzy mess after blow drying- I could have walked out the door with that hair it was so straight, shiny, soft, and flowy! The high heat settings work great as well, but I think being able to get away with the lower heat over all would be less damaging. This is coming from someone who's ALWAYS had to use the highest heat and power setting to get results. Other professional dryers have not been able to achieve this feat- so I definitely place this dryer at the top of the list for effective dryers!
For curly styling, the diffuser bowl works great- the placement of the holes as well as the power of the machine allow for great curls, but won't blow your hair around and cause needless frizz that can happen with diffusers that have too many holes or holes that are too big. Still a fast drying time. My wurls are left shinier than usual- so I know it's the blow dryer, not the products.
Over all, I really feel this was worth the price. I wasn't going to go for a dryer in this price range, but after several curlies recommending this and sick of frying my hair I'm trying to grow out desperately with a cheapo drug store dryer and not being convinced my stylists' dryers would be any better, I'm really glad I went with this beautiful machine. And what's amazing, is my hair LOOKS and FEELS healthier using this machine.

All That It PromisesThis was my first salon quality hairdryer. I choose the FHI because it was the same one they use at my salon. It definitely cuts my drying time in half and reduces frizz. My hair is smooth and soft after using it - my husband even commented that it looked really great, which is saying a lot. The only issues I have run into with this dryer are that it's very powerful and can cause some slight tangling - however this is not a deal breaker for me. Also, the cord is very long and I need to work on stretching it out because the dryer will cut off from time to time when it gets tangled. Other than that, I am very pleased with the product and feel like it was worth the money. I highly recommend investing in a nice dryer to protect your hair.Feb 9, 2011Virginia / Birmingham, ALHAIR TYPEBlonde / Color Treated Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

I Love It!!!I bought this dryer about 3 yrs ago at the Bronner Brothers Hair Show in Atlanta. And it still works as well as it did the first day I used it. It gives my clients hair a beautiful shine and it cuts my drying time in half. Even the coursest hair blow drys soft, shiny, and very managable. And it gives body to my clients with fine hair. I absolutely love this dryer. It was a wonderful investment.Jan 13, 2011Tiffany R. / North Carolina

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
The Emery County Republican party held a Lincoln Day dinner to honor Pres. Abraham Lincoln and his ideals. The feeling of freedom was in the air as the National Anthem was song by Amy Bell and the audience. Special attendees included the Governor of the state of Utah Gary Herbert. Sen. Orrin Hatch also made the trip from Washington DC to Castle Dale to attend the function. Sen. Hatch will seek re-election in 2012 as the senior senator from Utah. He was recently joined in Washington by junior senator Mike Lee who was unable to attend the dinner, but sent a representative.
Bill Dellos, county party chairman conducted the meeting. Lou Sansevero, vice chairman introduced the speakers. A steak dinner was catered by Kent Wilson from BKs. Musical entertainment was provided by the Emery High Chamber Choir and David Bird, director.
Gov. Herbert complimented Emery County saying it is a little piece of Americana. His sister lives in Ferron and he introduced his niece and nephew in attendance at the event. His sister however, had the choice between going on a cruise and listening to the governor speak and she went on the cruise joked the governor. Gov. Herbert appreciated the music and having young people involved in inspiring things.
The governor said he recently returned from Washington DC where he testified before a congressional committee on wildlands and also at the governors conference. Gov. Herbert said Utah is well respected back in Washington and the other governors were looking to Utah as a model for fiscal responsibility and balancing their budget each year. Utah is leading the nation in growth in exports. Utah is leading the nation as one of the best performing economies. Utah is technologically advanced and provides high tech businesses with high tech workers. China and India want our jobs said the governor. Utah is a leader in innovation and a quality workforce.
Gov. Herbert said the governors weren't asked to weigh in on the national health care policy and they should have been asked their opinions on such sweeping reform to health care. Gov. Herbert said he would like to see a return of state's rights where the states have more flexibility. The states should be a laboratory and testing ground for new ideas and systems. The United States is a great system if it's allowed to work as intended.
Gov. Herbert reflected that Pres. Obama has said time and again the states should be given more flexibility. "I am tired of the strings and micromanagement that's coming out of Washington. It's beginning to remind me of Henry Ford when he said you can have any color car you want as long as it's black."
Gov. Herbert said Utah has been working with the department of health on going paperless on medicare. But, the request has been denied and the denial came by email. So when Gov. Herbert was in Washington he told Pres. Obama what Utah wanted to do and they are working out a waiver so Utah can go paperless in regards to medicare which will save money.
While in Washington Gov. Herbert expressed his concerns with the interior secretaries order 3310 regarding wild land reinventory. Such reinventory is not needed and has been done before. BLM national director Bob Abbey told the congressional hearing that they (BLM) has no statutory authority to implement wild lands reinventory. Congress is the only body which can designate wilderness. "Bureaucrats are trying to usurp authority and that's going to change. I am proud, pleased and grateful to be your governor. I am a seventh generation Utahn who has been blessed by those who have gone before. We will pioneer the way. Utah is a great place to live and raise families," said Gov. Herbert.
Sen. Hatch told Emery County they have the best Lincoln Day dinner anywhere. Sen. Hatch said he is worried by the expanding debt. He has introduced a balanced budget amendment. He introduced one in 1997 and couldn't get it passed. Sen. Hatch said we need a president who understands economics. "The government should have to live within its means," said Sen. Hatch. He is heading up the Dept. of finance. America is running unfunded liability in medicare and social security. Sen. Hatch pointed out that social security won't be there when those kids who sang need it, if something isn't done. Sen. Hatch said he will work to balance the federal budget even if he is the most hated man in Washington.
State Sen. David Hinkins who represents Emery, Carbon, and parts of Utah County spoke next. He said the legislative session is winding down and they have accomplished a lot including a balanced budget. He is proud to be part of the rural cowboy caucus. He has had a number of good committee assignments this session along with other rural representatives. The transportation committee has played a big role in improvements to SR-6 with the help of Bevan Wilson who is on the UDOT commission. "There's no place like home. Talk about a rat race up there. I am pleased to represent the people of Emery County. We are doing all we can not to raise taxes. There are budget cuts and it's difficult. I appreciate our governor. In his state of the state address he supported energy. We couldn't ask for a better governor. We appreciate Sen. Hatch, he's the best. He has morals. We can be proud of him," said Sen. Hinkins.
Rep. Kay McIff spoke highly of Sen. Hatch. He said Sen. Hatch brings Utah a seat at the table. Rep. McIff also had praise for the governor, Sen. Hinkins and Rep. Christine Watkins. "She's feisty enough to make a difference. I voted down one of her measures, and she turned around and voted against one of mine. I take pride in my association with Emery County. I have appreciated the visits from the locals to the legislature. We have balanced a budget that will serve the people of Utah well. I'm not sure how we're going to solve the public lands debate, but something we need to be aware of and think about, if these public lands come up for sale. The buyers of the public domain might want to buy it and lock it up forever. We need to be careful and stay ahead of the game," said Rep. McIff.
Rep. Christine Watkins represents Green River in the legislature along with Carbon County and parts of Grand County. She was the lone Democratic speaker at the event. She said she views herself as an Emery County person. She came to Emery County when she was a 22 year old young mother. She taught school and raised her children here along with husband George Stucki. All her children graduated from Emery High. She said people still refer to her as Chris Stucki. Which she say's is fine with her. She lives in Carbon County now with her husband, John Watkins. She is proud to live in God's country. She is happy that Gov. Herbert is our governor because he knows Carbon and Emery counties. Rep. Watkins took the democrats from the legislature on a tour of rural counties last year and is planning another one for this year, because those urban legislators know nothing about rural Utah and its issues. She is proud of House Bill 98 which helps small school districts.
Morgan Philpot attended the dinner as well. He ran in the last election against Rep. Jim Matheson and lost. But, he said he's ready to run again. He enjoyed the time he spent in Emery County during the campaign. He attended the fair and the Peach Days celebration. He attended the Carbon-Emery football game which Emery won. He felt good about his work during the campaign and even though it hurt to lose, he felt he ran a grassroots campaign. He is fed up with Democrats who try to give Utah's lands away and lock them up. He is proud of his wife and kids and their support of his campaign.
Philpot shared a challenge he has that everyone rededicate themselves and resolve that this nation shall have a rebirth and this country will not perish from the earth. We need a new burst of freedom and it's going to come from places like Emery and Carbon counties. Put in your daily prayers that our nation can become a shining example. Thanks so much for what you do, said Philpot.
Thomas Wright introduced himself as the new state Republican party chairman. He has replaced David Hansen who has left the chairmanship to head up Sen. Hatch's re-election campaign. Wright believes in grassroot politics for change. It starts with getting people registered to vote and participating in the political process. Outwork your opponents, do the work that no one else is able to do. "Pres. Lincolm stood up for what he believed in. Take back America. I'm not an expert on Emery County. I am an urbanite, but I hope to be here a lot," said Wright.
Bruce Hough was the concluding speaker he is the national party committee member. He said their most important job right now is to nominate a republican to beat Pres. Obama in 2012. He praised Gov. Herbert for his example and mentioned Utah will be the place this summer where all the governors and territories will meet and Gov. Herbert will be the host. He mentioned how important Sen. Hatch is to Utah and that he heads up the finance committee. Washington needs conservative senators in Washington. "We need to get a balanced budget amendment passed. Sen. Lee is working with Sen. Hatch on the balanced budget amendment," said Hough.
Hough expressed his discontent with people making decisions about Utah who don't know what they are talking about.
Dellos closed the meeting and announced the Republican Organizing convention at Huntington Elementary on March 17 at 6 p.m. and invited all to attend.

Accomplice To Evil
"The sons of Yaakov came upon the corpses of the city that had defiled their sister." – Bereishis 34:27
Shechem, the son of Chamor, set his sights on Dina. He carefully laid a trap to entice her out of her tent, and then kidnapped and defiled her. When Yaakov and his sons heard what had been done, "they were extremely distressed . . . [and said] 'So shall not be done!' "
Shechem became infatuated with Dina, and came to ask for her hand in marriage. "Name your price and I will pay it," he said to Yaakov. The brothers of Dina answered Shechem, "To marry into our family, a person must have a bris milah." Shechem and Chamor agreed, and they convinced the people of their town to be circumcised as well. On the third day of their milah, Reuven and Shimon took up their swords and killed out every male in the city.
After they were finished, the pasuk says "the sons of Yaakov came upon the corpses of the city that had defiled their sister." The Sforno is bothered by the expression "the city that defiled their sister." After all, it was Shechem alone who committed the act, not the city.
The Sforno answers by explaining that in that society, forcibly taking a woman was not considered abhorrent. If it had not been socially acceptable, Shechem never would have done it. Therefore, it is considered as if they were all participants.
The problem is that the Sforno doesn't seem to have answered his question. Granted, the entire town may have been responsible for creating the social atmosphere that accepted such conduct, but all they did was to give Shechem the opportunity to act as he wished. They didn't join him in the act. They didn't aid him. They didn't tempt him to do it. The most we can blame them for is giving the opportunity to Shechem to do as he chose. If so, how can the pasuk say the city defiled Dina?
A Cog in the Wheel of a Killing Machine
On April 14, 1944, the deportation of Hungarian Jewry began. Within 56 days, almost 500,000 men, women and children were transported to Auschwitz.
Imagine you were a German train switch operator at a station near Auschwitz. You came of age at a time when Hitler had been long accepted as the Fuehrer. From your youth you were indoctrinated with the belief that the fatherland was the glory of all true Germans, and that Hitler alone was the savior of the new Germany.
It would be hard for you to deny your knowledge of where this human cargo was headed, as the air was heavy with the smell of burning flesh. But you never killed anyone. In fact, you may not even have completely bought into the racial theory thing. Your job was just to keep those trains rolling. So you aren't guilty of murder. Are you?
At the Nuremberg Trials, the Nazis defended themselves with the mantra, "We were only following orders." Each participant denied his guilt by claiming he was just a cog in the wheel: not a murderer himself, not a decision-maker – just a lackey. Yet, even the secular world didn't accept this because being a cog in the wheel of a killing machine makes you a part of a machine that kills. As such, you are a killer.
The Sforno is teaching us that even if a person is not an active participant in an act, he can be considered responsible for its happening. In a normal society, basic human rights are a given. If the society has failed to keep safeguards in place, then that society has failed in its most basic responsibilities. Every member of that group is therefore held accountable for that failure.
In the case of Dina, the townspeople made it possible for Shechem to do what he did. Without their easing the standards, it never would have happened. Once they lowered the accepted behavior, they paved the way for him, so they are held responsible for what he did.
Accessories to Terror
This concept is especially relevant in our times when the murder of innocent people has become an accepted manner of protesting for one's political rights. Inflicting terror on men, women, and children is almost part of the political process – because it advances my cause.Rabbi Ben Tzion Shafier

LIVETARGET Hollow Body Field Mouse
Best of Show Winner for Soft Lures at the 2011 ICAST Show
Mice are native to most areas of North America, and can often be found foraging for food along shorelines and on floating vegetation - putting them in constant contact with hungry, opportunistic bass. Offering the perfect mouse imitation, the Live Target Hollow Body Field Mouse features intricate, lifelike detailing so realistic you'd swear it was alive. Perfect for twitching along the tops of pads and grassmats, it is extremely weedless, super soft for excellent collapsibility, and equipped with a razor sharp frog hook. A deadly alternative to the hollow bodied frog, the Koppers Live Target Hollow Body Field Mouse gets bit.

Comments: Been using this mouse for 2 years now & it is hands down the best top water bait on the market. I throw it anyplace & it always comes back. It actually is my go to bait, I've caught bass from less than a pound up to 9.2lbs. Everyone I know who has tried it, simply love it. It's the only top water bait you need.
From: Bob: Lake Conroe, TX 9/3/16
Comments: To all the people saying it rolls to much to walk, that's how it was designed to walk. If you watch the video from livetarget you will see that. On to the bait itself. This is a top notch top water bait, just cast it out there pop it three good times & reel you slack & do it again all the way Mack to the boat. I would suggest a good stiff rod & a fast reel with good braid. You are going to need it! I use a St. Croix slop-n-frog in 7' paired with an Abu Garcia revo MGX 7.9:1 with sunline 60lb blue & green braid. I have been using livetarget frogs & bought this to try & I have put my frogs up & used this the past two weekends & have landed a lot of bass one weighed in a 9.1lbs. I have been using the white mouse & will be buying another one in white & the rest of the colors. Bass love em' FISH ON!
From: Matt: Grady, AL 6/4/16
Comments: Had this lure for a while, my dad bought it has a souvenir for a lake & didn't use it till I was at my friends catching 2-5lbers ever couple castes on a frog. I took this mouse out & first cast landed a 7.6lb bass. The bass was my pb for about 30 minutes when I caught a 9.6. I sold it to my friend for 25 dollars & bought 2 more with the money & our largest on it know is 12.9. Caught this bass after loosing a 5lber & was complaining about loosing it while my mouse lure was sitting 10 feet away from the boat totally still it bit. I definitely think this is a great lure. I recommend it with Scott Martins signature series tcs rods 7'3" heavy, 50 pound pline tcb braid & definitely a 13 fishing reel because of the drag! If you're wondering if it's worth the money it is buy 2 it's worth it. Middle size and gray black is my favorite!
From: George: USA 5/8/16
Comments: Bought mine a year or so ago and it just sat in my tackle box. Saw it in there today and thought "What the heck". Fourth cast into some weeds and BAM! a nice 5 pounder. Summer is just coming on and the vegetation in my clear California lake is getting thick. Looking forward to using this thing all summer.
From: Pat: Sun City, CA 6/12/15
Comments: Excellent bait, works great on french largemouth bass. Very easy to walk this mouse at slow or fast speed, with a nice rolling action. The plastic is very soft and the hooks very sharp so the hook up ratio is better than with many hollow body frog style baits. My advices: The tail attachement is a bit weak, superglue it before its first rodeo, not a big deal. You can also use spinnerbait squirts to replace the tail in case of lost. Water come inside after a few casts,just squeeze it or obture a little bit the hole legs as I do.
From: Beno: France 6/1/15
Comments: This is definitely a BIG bass lure. I am having a problem hooking fish, though. The one bass I landed was a bit over 4 lbs. Fought him to the boat, he threw the mouse, then turned around and SMASHED it as it floated. I quickly landed him. Other than that, I have lost one at the boat & had several others on for a few seconds. should I be setting the hook like a worm? I really want to master this lure, as the majority of my bites have been big fish (4+).
From: John: MS 5/18/15
Comments: You can walk it, straight retrieve it, or slow twitch it. Its a tough shorter rod twitch than a typical walk action, but it certainly walks. I definitely works well! Now the bad. For $11 it should hold up better. The tail is torn in half, and only 4-5 strands of skirt remain on each side. It still catches fish, but doesn't walk for squat like that. Also, the rubber body is beginning to show lots of fatigue and won't live through too many more trips. The bait does hang some, but usually a quick rod flick and it pops free without much fuss. Also, after it gets some age it will fill with water easier. Just squeeze the water out and keep on tossing.
From: Chuck: Longview, TX 10/19/14
Comments: This mouse is officially my confidence bait. The action this thing has is awesome. You CAN walk this bait!!! I was fishing this mouse around a tree trunk that was sticking out of the water and started off with a slow retrieve and had a huge blowup but missed him, did the same retrieve in the same area and had no luck, then walked the dog through it and bam landed a nice 5lb fatty. You can work this bait multiple ways and the price beats any other rat/mice by a long shot. This thing straight up produces. Just bought one in every color!
From: Jeff: Los Gatos, CA 8/12/14
Comments: For my science class I used one of these live target mice for a model. And when I turned it in my teacher believed that the mouse was real. so I thing if this live target lure can trick one of our nations educators than it just might trick a bass:)
From: Josh: OR 6/11/14
Comments: This mouse is a killer weapon in my tackle box. I used it this weekend over lilly pads in an Arkansas lake and my mouse (grey and white) was having strikes every 4th or 5th throw. and the hook sets were deep my partner used a frog and never got struck upon my friend ordered two for himself Sunday when we got home. I cant wait for next weekend when I can go back out and throw it again.
From: Eldon: Fort Smith, AR 5/20/14
Comments: Guys if you decide to listen to one review listen to this one. When I first started working this lure it rode a little on its side so I thought it was junk. You really need to give this thing a slow retrieve with a steady reel and some quick flicks. Not so much of walking the dog or fast hard actions. With this being said this mouse has become my miracle bait. I was having a tough day and not much was hitting. I soon went to a very shallow swampy section of the lake and I caught my biggest bass ever at 9lb 6oz. I casted along the shore under some brush and I hooked up. I decided to use it the rest of the day and caught 10+ more big bass. This has become my go-to top water lure and no tackle box is complete without one. Super soft body great for hook-ups and these people saying that it falls apart are being babies. AWESOME LURE!!
From: Ryan: WI 4/21/14
Comments: This is my "go to" lure for slop and pads. My biggest bass caught on it was a 5lb fatty largemouth, But my buddy lost a 7lb+. The tail does fall out, just repair it with super glue.
From: Big C: OR, USA
Comments: This was my favorite weedless topwater lure. If you say it's not working you're fishing it wrong. I caught huge bass all summer long, especially at night time in the weeds. I plan on fishing this next season every night.
From: Chuck: Grand Rapids, MI, USA
Comments: One of the most fun baits ive ever used. I toss it onto land, and slowly pull it n the water...pause, a few twitches, pause...if I dont get blown up, i walk the dog back to the boat. Great product! Thanks Koppers!
From: Mike: Huntington Beach, CA
Comments: do not fish in grass mats it will land upside down and catch the grass. a good open water bait though.
From: Caleb: prescott,wi
Comments: Not what I expected from a Kopper's product. I bought one of these and had terrible results with it. Fished it over matted cover and worked it into open pockets. As soon as I got it into an open pocket it turned on its side or back and then the hooks caught up on grass and matted grass. Neat idea but was not practical in my experience.
From: Brian: IA
Comments: Another added note, if any topwater like the mouse or frog keeps filling with water, appropriate sized rubber heat shrink tubing on the hook shank does a great job. Just make it come through the belly hook hole about a mm and it will help tons, this also keeps whatever scent you prefer in the bait longer, helps it slowly seep out. Just a tip on the mouse not so much a review.
Comments: Be gentle on the pull, it walks just fine, also superglue the tail into the bait right out of the package, I also recommend super glue to the skirt leg holes, after jerking the hook into a few fish, the bait tends to get stretched out of course, this keeps it from filling with water as bad, otherwise top shelf topwater.
Comments: Dont know why people saying that this mouse cant walk the dog. it walk great. you just have to know how to walk it. is so eazy. i have caught so many bass and pike on this lure. this lure is a beast. i still have my first mouse that i got last year and still catching bass on it. landed well over 40+ bass on that same mouse. some lakes i fish at this mouse will out fish the frog any day. but it not so weedless. when it get beat up i used the hudd glue. good as new.
From: Skyline: greenfield, wi
Comments: One of the best topwater baits ive ever thrown. You cant "walk the dog" like a traditional frog though. You cast it out and retrieve it slowly, it looks as if it were a mouse tredding water. The tail action is what really brings in those bass. There were a few set backs. I orded 8 of these, two of each color, I had 3 lose there tails after getting nailed all morning. However, i continued to throw it without the tail and it still caught bass so i guess that really isnt a major set back. They are also VERY soft. Great hook up ratio, never lost a fish on them. My personal opinion, this is a 9 outa 10 topwater bait.
From: Peter: Palmetto, Ga
Comments: This is a great bait but you can't fish it like a traditional frog. If you throw it tight to cover and slowly retrieve it , it looks like a mouse treading water hence the rolling action. It does not like to walk the dog because of the rolling action. It is most deffinately a cast and retrieve bait and it is awesome. Fish it like it's a mouse treading water and you will get bit! The tail action alone pulls the hawgs
From: Thomas: Holly Springs NC
Comments: The BEST! The END
From: hmongbass: Madison, WI
Comments: Great lure! after a bunch of bass this lure is still in great shape and still floats and reacts perfectly. I recommend this!
From: Ray: Orlando, FL
Comments: As a topwater fiend, I've tried them all. This product I must say is the worst. It casts ok, rolls to much on the pads, grabs junk to easy and fills up with water. Big dissapointment! I'll stick witht e boze sumo frog anyday!
From: Karl: Chicago, IL
Comments: 31 bass you sure, by the way it sounds you are way over your head for 3 hours. But still a good bait
Comments: OMG..... one of my best bass fishing ever. it came from this mouse.. landed 31 BASS in 3 hours of fishing. this mouse out fish the frog that day. all i have to say is...........WOW. What i did is put some super glue on the tale. it never came off.
From: Skyline: Greenfield, WI
Comments: I picked one up at my local store and took it up north, it quickly became my "go to lure". If you're not getting results you're not fishin' it right. Yes it'll catch lilly pads and grass but if you cast in to the gaps in them get ready for action. My 18" large mouth could tell you how great it was, if I hadn't eaten it.
From: Mike: Ontario, Canada
Comments: just got it today and brought it to a lake and it swims like a dream. got a couple nice bass and a couple hits, the tail has not came off yet, so pleased so far. will be getting more.
From: Trenten: FL
Comments: This thing is simply amazing!The hookup ratio is outstanding.If you haven't tried this you are missing out.This mouse will out fish a frog and the way it rides up away from the hook is great.The hooks are premium.Get one and try it ,you'll be back for more.The strikes on this thing are heart stopping!And yes this is a game changer!
From: Keith: Madison, GA
Comments: I ordered 2 of these this spring and finally got to fish them the last few weeks and they accounted for all my fish with the largest being 4lbs from a city pond....well all were from city ponds. Great action once you figure them out, they are soft, I just squeezed the water out of mine between casts to make sure it stayed up which it did. I did happen to loose the legs after dragging the 4lb fish 100ft though the weeds but minor fix with a few strands of a skirt in each hole with some superglue and good to go. Will role if you reel it too fast and it does sit low in the water. Its got more good qualities then bad and if the other guy wants to send me all his instead of giving them to his competitors by all means let me know. This is a fish catching machine and am more then pleased with it.
From: William: Long Beach, CA
Comments: JUNK...WHAT A WASTE ON 10 DOLLARS
From: Troy: WI
Comments: Dont buy. Filled with water after several casts and sank. Not durable and does not work well when floating. This bait sells on looks and nothing else. Have other live target baits. They catch me fish. Giving this bait to Adam.
From: Erik: WI
Comments: ON the second cast a half pound bass tore the legs clean out and nearly separated the tail from the body. very disappointing, returned it to my tackle dealer and received a full refund. Would be amazing if it was as durable as the frogs. 0 out of 5 stars
Comments: Purchased the LT Mouse a few months back and tried it out on a trip to Black Lake, NY for the bass opener. Damn did it perform well, i loved the action the mouse had. I would have to say it out performed any hollow body frog I've fished. It seems to have more of a swimming action, rather than the walk the dog action the frogs have. The appearance of a mouse makes it look more vulnerable to bass rather than a frog, since mice don't belong in the water. Another great product from Koppers!
From: Dan: Buffalo, NY
Comments: The bait needs to be wider so it wont be rotating as your trying to walk it. If it was just a little thicker this would not be a problem.
From: Andy: MA
Comments: Three casts with this the other night and it came up without legs and tail: dead bait. I'm dissappointed as Koppers stuff has always been top notch for me. Probably I got a bad one, but based on comments I see here and elsewhere, I'm concerned about how well it will hold up. Not buying another.
From: WT: Mpls, MN
Comments: I was fishing behind a guy throwing a pad crasher(which is my favorite frog) and he casted to the same pads I eventually casted to. I pulled out 4 quality fish right behind him when he caught zero. Im buying more. There is something about that swimming action as opposed to the walking action of the frog. I used to have the same tearing problem as other people. So when I take it out of the package I stretch the tail out a ways and apply epoxy in the hole. I do the same with the front line tie. Make sure to get the epoxy in the bait instead of just outside of it. This makes the mouse as well as other frogs last way longer.
From: Ben: Hudsonville, MI
Comments: Tried it today, and the only thing possitive about it is it looks like a mouse.... Rubber legs came off after a few hits. Hooks pick up weeds on every cast, unless you only fish open water. The only ones I would recommend this lure to are my competition in tournaments...
From: Dick: Sterling, IL
Comments: Love the realistic details that koppers live target keeps on bringing. For me if seems like they made the body too soft, i keep getting weeds and grass caught on only one of my hooks. After catching 1 fish my mouse was just not the same it kept catching weeds. Awesome lure but overall too soft and not durable as the frog.
Comments: great walk the dog action - best used on a random pause often during the retrieve. most of the fish that hit it are a little better than frog fish in the early spring. haven't had any real hard strikes or caught as many as i thought it would. tail might come off - glue something in it's place and you're back in the game. good bait - but i prefer kopper's frogs. didn't think that would be the case after seeing this mouse.
From: Matt: AZ
Comments: GREAT BAIT, BUT AFTER CATCHING 2 TO 3 FISH THE BAIT IS SHOT . I HAD 3 USED THEM ON 5 FISH IN 3HRS OF FISHING. WILL NOT BUY ANY MORE
From: Kyle: MISS
Comments: mine worked this season, caught a monster bass on these, awesome bait. I plan to get more, mine didn't sink, it floats great, might be your guys baits are from somewhere else. Mine floats on water and works great for monster bass. I caught my trophy this year and plan to get more. Its awesome topwater, keep mouse going! Really great bait.
From: Alex again!
Comments: Second one sank too. I give up.
From: Mike: Jackson, MO
Comments: Walks with no effort at all but my first one sank immediately so I'm gonna give em another shot and hope I just got a bad one. These will be great on smaller ponds.
From: Mike: Jackson, MO
Comments: Got this bait this year! hooks are sharp and nice looking bait. Using it this summer, i don't have alot of weeds in my lake but this bait is sweet and nice. More realistic. The company should make a snake, bird, and other unusual topwates like this one to get big girls biting. Good fishing to you forever!
From: Alex: Kansas
Comments: worked fine for the 10x's i tossed it,then some angry ass smallie tore the dang tail off and now it fills up with water to quick,by the time i get it back to me its under water.looks great but didnt hold up quite as planned.
From: Sammy: USA
Comments: Looks great!!! I'm going to get mouse bait. Time to catch some lunkers. I seen this type bait used in New York. Caught alot of fish because New york has rats. Well rats are everywhere in America. Might be your next Go to bait! :)
From: Alex: Kansas
Comments: This thing is going to be killer, just arrived cant wait to throw it this year!! Super soft, I threw it in my plano box and am just amazed walking away how real it looks.
From: Brett: NY
Comments: I dont even need to use this mouse to know it will be a game changer this year!

I forgot one thing from the list: noisy things (piezoelectric buzzer).
@Michael--cool! You are right--the kids could do more on their own with that. I like Arduino because of the programming part. These seem to be two different skills. But it looks like they are very complementary. Thank you for the suggestion.

difficult to put onto a 2.5 year old
"These shoes are really difficult to put on my 2.5 year old. it seems the opening is just not big enough to comfortably get his feet in.Also, I bought these because it said they have some kind of "antibacterial" footbed. I thought it would cut down on the odor, but after wearing them just one week, these sandals smell exactly like the $20 sandals I bought at Target.I would not buy these sandals again."

The apartment has been furnished mostly in art nouveau style. The art nouveau style is very wide spread in Prague, the city giving the name to this apartment. The apartment has been furnished with original antique furniture with a fine decoration taste. In 98 square meters the guest will find two double bedrooms, a living room as well as a big kitchen with dining area and a spacious bathroom. There is also a wide hall on entering the apartment. The apartment can accommodate up to eight guests.
Both bedrooms are equipped with majestic bedroom sets, original works of master carpenters of French and German origin in the early twentieth century. In the master bedroom there is a double bed (200 cm x 140 cm) together with a very nice wardrobe, a chest of drawers and a bedside table, all original pieces in German art nouveau style. This bedroom is very bright having a 3 meters x 2 meters big glass window. In the second bedroom the guest will find a very nice set of furniture in French art nouveau style including a double bed (200 cm x 140 cm), a wardrobe and two bedside tables. Tasty paintings and illustrations on the walls together with appropriate ceiling and table lamps round the delightful atmosphere.
The living room has a large sofa that offers a comfortable sit place to the guests. It can eventually be converted in the sleep place for up to two persons (200 cm x 160 cm). A 32" flat screen TV with local and international channels can be watched in this room. A blue-ray-player is also the guest's disposition. The living room is also very bright having a 3 meters x 2 meters big glass window
The kitchen is excellently equipped with oven, microwave, four hobs, fridge, coffee machine, toaster, kettle, dishwasher as well as a complete set of dishes, glasses and cutlery. In the dining table there is place for up to 8 guests as well as a sofa that can eventually converted into the sleep place for two children. There is also a wall TV in the kitchen.
The apartment has a modern bathroom with a spacious shower, a big sink and a comfortable toilet. There is a hairdryer at the guest's disposition. The bathroom walls are made of a nice marble in a brown tone.
The floor is wood parquet in the whole apartment (except the bathroom). The apartment has central heating. The building dates back to early last century and has a beautiful facade. The apartment is in the courtyard, so it is very quiet. First class bed sheets as well as towels will be provided.
There is WiFi Internet access in the apartment included in the apartment's price. Up to four free bicycles are also available upon request.
The apartment is located at the Prinzregentenstrasse 93, 81677 Munich, Germany. This is just 50 meters from the famous Prinzregentenplatz (Prince Regent Square) in Munich, which is also a subway and bus station. With the subway you are in 10 minutes in the Marienplatz, the central square in Munich. It is a privileged location in the prestigious Bogenhausen quarter of Munich. All shops and facilities for daily needs are within walking distance. The atmosphere in the Prince Regent Square with its many recreational opportunities such as Prince Regent Theatre, Prinzregentenbad, English Garden and the renowned galleries and quality restaurants ensure the continued attractiveness of the neighborhood as a favorite of Munich.
The apartment does not have a private parking or garage available but the apartment's area (Bogenhausen) is a free parking area. You can park with no cost in almost any street in the area. The parking availability in the area depends on the day hour, but it takes no more than 5 minutes in average to find a free lot. If you are planning to move around, outside Munich, it is not a bad idea to have a car. For movements inside Munich it is probably not a very good idea (there are lot of paid parking areas in the city).

Your accommodation was exactly what we hoped for. Clean, high quality, organized, well located, properly priced.
I would recommend this accomodation to anyone.
Thank you very much. We will be back.
Kind regards

Clean apartment, neat and equipped with all facilities. Nice that it comes with towel, sponge, toilet rolls and towels. Beds were fine, although of course that is personal. We did have our own pillows included. Fully equipped kitchen. Only downside I found that you are in the basement and a kind of moisture in the house have. So windows left open all day. I also missed some planche little in the bathroom and hallway. Alex responded well (via email) on incremental questions. Coffee maker was broken, we got the next day a new one immediately. Also new interim towels was possible. Location is easily accessible by car and public transport. Central location, also supermarket and bakery nearby. I would so go there again.
Net appartement, keurig en voorzien van alle faciliteiten. Prettig dat het voorzien is van theedoek, vaatdoekje, wc-rollen en handdoeken. Bedden waren prima, alhoewel dat natuurlijk persoonlijk is. Wij hadden wel de eigen kussens meegenomen. Compleet uitgeruste keuken. Enige nadeel vond ik dat je in de kelder zit en dus een soort vocht in huis hebt. Ramen dus alle dagen open gelaten. Verder miste ik wat planchetjes in de badkamer en hal. Alex reageerde goed (via email) op tussentijdse vragen. Koffiezetter was kapot, we kregen de volgende dag meteen een nieuwe. Ook tussentijds nieuwe handdoeken was mogelijk. Locatie is uitstekend bereikbaar met auto en openbaar vervoer. Centrale ligging, tevens supermarkt en bakker in buurt. ik zou er zo weer heen gaan.
Location is great, just steps to the subway. Tengelmann and bakery just around the corner. Quiet location and spacious. English Garden is not far away. Good connection to the center by metro station closeby.
Lage ist super, wenige Schritte zur U-Bahn. Tengelmann und Bäcker gleich um die Ecke. Ruhige Lage und geräumig. Englischer Garten ist auch nicht weit. Gute Anbindung ins Zentrum durch nahgelegene U-Bahnstation.
Super apartment. We enjoyed our week Mende girls in full. The beds, especially the couch when you can 6 stayed, are a little unkonfortabel but the rest is super nice and clean. Thank you Alex
Super Wohnung. Wir genossen unser Mädelswochemende in vollen Zügen.
Die Betten, vorallem die Couch wenn man zu 6. übernachtet, sind ein wenig unkonfortabel aber der Rest ist superschön und sauber. Danke Alex
It all worked out well and the apartment is great. Only the humidity is so high due to the basement, it is not recommended in winter Astmathiker.
Hat alles gut geklappt und das Apartment ist toll. Nur die Luftfeuchtigkeit ist dank Souterrain so hoch, dass es im Winter für Astmathiker nicht zu empfehlen ist.
Nice room, nice environment, man is fast because the city ubahn and Buss are right outside the door.
Schönes Zimmer , nette umgebung , mann ist schnell in der stadt da die ubahn und der Buss direkt vor der Türe sind.
Excellent Munchen apartment in a nice quiet residential area of the city, close enough to the action thanks to the Metro. Alex is a great proprietor, quick and excellent with the email communication, could have asked so much more but finding out yourself is part of the fun.
The apartment itself is a basement property, two good sized bedrooms, small and compact kitchen. Free wifi which is always a bonus. In all honesty we only slept and showered in the place as we were always out all day and night. It's a quiet building and very very safe neighbourhood. The key arrangement is a lot of fun and easy to workout.
It's on a main road for taxis and bang next to the metro, which is like 5 mins to the centre of the city. There is a fantastic bakery up the road from the apartment, a real local place that does great coffee, pastries and sandwiches.
All in all I would use this place again on my next visit, of which there will be one because the weather was so awful we need to see Munich in the summer
Perfectly organized, hosts very friendly and uncomplicated; super residential location with metro station at the door, very quiet, good beds, everything available, what you need, bathroom very small, but clean. Gladly again.
Perfekt organisiert; Gastgeber sehr freundlich und unkompliziert; super Wohnlage mit U-Bahnstation vor der Tür; sehr ruhig; gute Betten; alles vorhanden, was man braucht; Bad zwar sehr klein, aber sauber. Gerne wieder.
Super central location of the apartment in subway Prince Regent Square or bus stop. Price-performance ratio. You can find free parking nearby. The key collection instructions works just fine, thanks. The apartment was clean and perfectly fine for an overnight stay. We were with 6 people there.
Super zentrale Lage der Wohnung an U-Bahn Prinzregentenplatz oder Bushaltestelle. Preis-Leistung passt. Parkplatz findet man kostenlos in der Nähe. Die Schlüsselabholung funktioniert dank Anleitung prima. Die Wohnung war sauber und für eine Übernachtung völlig in Ordnung. Wir waren mit 6 Personen dort.
We traveled to Munich on business to exhibit at the World's largest construction trade show - Bauma 2013. We looked at hotels at first, but wanted something a little more "comfortable" as we were in Munich for 12 nights. We were somewhat skeptical as this was a first, renting through an online site, for any of us. We were pleasantly surprised. The apartment was exactly as it was portrayed...Alex, our host, was very accommodating, polite and helpful throughout our entire trip. The location was PERFECT, the apartment very clean and neat and we thoroughly enjoyed this experience. One "Tip" that I recommend be added to the apartments description... "In a VERY quiet neighborhood...not for the late night crowd".

A Good Faith Revival of Duty of Care Liability in Business Organization Law
Carter G. Bishop
Suffolk University Law School
Tulsa Law Review, Vol. 41, p. 477, 2006
Suffolk University Law School Research Paper No. 07-02
The core fiduciary duties of care and loyalty have long been the most important and controversial theories of director liability in corporate law. The Delaware response to exploding director care liability has been a robust business judgment rule eroding the duty of care itself coupled later with statutory complete exculpation for duty of care liability. Shareholder efforts to circumvent those director protections have placed increasing pressure on the express exceptions to statutory exculpation in general and good faith in particular. The anti-exculpatory role of good faith arguably expanded by a narrow self benefit conceptualization of the duty of loyalty. That pressure is most recently expressed in the 2006 release of In re The Walt Disney Company Derivative Litigation, a nearly ten-year saga testing the conceptual limits of good faith while concluding Disney directors were not liable. While the Disney directors were arguably negligent, the shareholder plaintiffs failed to prove the directors acted in bad faith and thus absent actionable personal benefit, the directors' decisional conduct was protected by the business judgment rule as well as statutory exculpation. In this Article, Professor Bishop canvases the modern contours of the core corporate fiduciary duties of care and loyalty to challenge conventional wisdom and demonstrate that the peripheral duty of good faith is a distinct concept but not a separately actionable fiduciary duty. Delaware statutory exculpation and indemnification law as well as its business judgment rule lean heavily on a requirement of conceptual good faith as the minimum price of protected director conduct. Professor Bishop argues, properly conceived, bad faith operates to deconstruct those protections, a more proper and limited role for a duty extremely difficult to define and prove. Moreover, confining good faith to this role allows it to serve a justified policy goal designed to increase liability for unjustifiable behavior bordering on intentional misconduct. By stripping away exculpation, indemnification and business judgment rule protections, bad faith reinvigorates the core duty of care to an ordinary negligence standard requiring only proof of a breach of the ordinary negligence duty, corporate harm, and causation. Professor Bishop argues that the good faith reinvigoration of duty of care liability requires further re-examination of the 1993 Delaware Supreme Court opinion in Cede II, a case that conflated liability standards for a breach of the fiduciary duties of care and loyalty by allowing directors to escape care liability, like loyalty liability, by showing that the director conduct was "entirely fair" to the corporation and its shareholders. The "entire fairness standard" more appropriately addresses the fairness of director personal benefit and conflict of interest transactions. While statutory exculpation makes this error irrelevant in most cases, statutory exculpation is not available upon proof of bad faith thus mandating judicial correction of Cede II to avoid using an irrelevant entire fairness test to shield care liability. Given these corporate fiduciary duty missteps and the trend to adopt statutes approving ex ante contractual elimination of the duties of care and loyalty in unincorporated business organizations including limited liability companies, Professor Bishop concludes that careful attention is required to prevent these corporate errors from invading unincorporated law, particularly in Delaware.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Sony Online Entertainment recently announced that Vanguard: Saga of Heroes would be going free to play sometime this summer. In today's Devil's Advocate, we take a look at that announcement and offer a few thoughts. See what you think before heading into the comments to leave your thoughts.
I tend to think of Vanguard as an MMO time capsule, one that has been generally undisturbed for many years. Now that SOE has pledged some support for bringing some vigor back into Vanguard, I do believe it's time to make an appeal to MMO players out there to bring about a resurgence on the world of Telon. As such, today's Devil's Advocate is about discussing what makes Vanguard a worthwhile game to play, and what SOE's renewed interest in the game can potentially do for the game's future.
Read more of Victor Barreiro Jr.'s The Devil's Advocate: The Vanguard Appeal.
I tried Vangaurd several times in the past. Once even a month ago. I found it bit problematic with its UI and game responsiveness. I have a good laptop and it is running most new games in high mode. But VSoH just seemed clanky. And UI itself needed a lot of love too.
I absolutely loved Vanguard, and would play it again in a F2P model. The harvesting system, crafting and diplomacy were so engaging. The lack of players due to the lack of support was the straw that broke the desire to pay to play. Every game has issues and ever game has strong points. Here is to hoping that Vanguard receives a renewed interest.
Thanks for the update Victor

I'm really looking forward to the inevitable population increase that the freemium conversion will bring, but I'm very concerned with how limiting the options will be- of all the companies' payment models for games that have gone from subscription only to "F2P" I've found Sony's to be the worst.
look forward with that )
I played at launch and for the first two months before qutting.
Recently went back and subbed for a few more months. The game ran great for me, Win7x64, 8GB RAM, GTX-460 SLI, SSD.
The world still has the "awe-factor" than many of today's games are missing. Lots of fun and I will be playing more when it goes F2P.
There is a free 14 day trial.
Vanguard has appeal?
Hi folks.
Just wanted to let everyone know that if you do try to play Vanguard, the latest version of the launchpad is available at http://www.soe.com/getthegame/
Just make sure you change the client install to LIVE by clicking the cog on the lower left of the launchpad above the download progress bar, and select the Live game version.
It took me a while to figure this out myself, mostly due to the fact that the Vanguard site isn't too forthcoming with answers, sadly.

I was in vanguard beta, I even had a 3 month sub to the game when it first came out. The sad truth was and still is that soe really does ot care about this game. It has sat for year with minimal updates. Honestly I think that the reason for that was the wanted to kill off the competition to eq2. Now that they are working on on EQ3(EqNext) only have the let silius go back to vanguard.
I might play it free to play, I think the game had a lot of potential right after the nge hit but soe seamed fit to just let the game languish in obscurity, despite there being a small vocal amount of players who think it is the greatest thing since Swiss cheese.
I honestly don't see how it got the score they gave it. But he I realize if they don't give high scores to games folks are not going to talk to them about the games they really want to look at.
Played this one off and on over the years, and I found it to be a lot of fun. Full of bugs that shouldn't be there like running into the water and somehow slipping beneath it and out of the zone and floating into the netherworld hehe! I will definately return to when the FTP goes into effect.

I had a lot of fun with Vanguard, despite the bugginess. But I would never go back unless they bring back the FFA PVP server. That server was a blast but I would never play a pure PVE game.

F2P is not gonna happen I think. With the upcoming EU transtition, all $O€ games are listed, except Vanguard and EverQuest 1. I can understand why EQ1 is skipped with EQN coming soon, but Vanguard missing would imply that $O€ might give up on it

I find Vanguard to be one of the hardest games to get to run smoothly.......Even on a really good gaming rig I cant get it to run without issues.....
Its always been an amazing game to me. Just not enough players around.
I am enjoying Vanguard. Whenever I want a shot of old-school MMO, Vanguard delivers. I particularly like the wide open seamless world, and the crafting and diplomacy mini-games.
Also, there is a TON of content: you could level 2-3 characters from 1-50 and never repeat the same content. For each level, there are at least two or three different areas to play in.
RIP City of Heroes. One of my favorite MMO's.
"As such, today's Devil's Advocate is about discussing what makes Vanguard a worthwhile game to play"
Best classes ever. Anyone who loves MMOs will have a blast playing through the different classes, imo.
I hate that it's going F2P. Of course I dont pay for it right now because the attention it gets from SOE isn't worth $15 a month ...
I can't see cash shops being a good direction for this game.
LFD tools are great for cramming people into content, but quality > quantity.
I am, usually on the sandbox .. more "hardcore" side of things, but I also do just want to have fun. So lighten up already
I played beta and about 2 months after that and really enjoyed the game, I have gone back a few times and what has kept me from resubbing is always the same few things, bugs and population.
I'm looking forward to F2P, not so much for myself but in hopes of a larger population. I don't much care for the F2P model Sony has been using personally, but I would considering resubbing if it improves the game.
Nice game - not worth a sub but might theoretically be worth it if the microtransation model is reasonable.
The shame is that it's SOE in charge. Given how Sony's complete ineptitude has burned me in the past, I wouldn't pay them a red cent even if Vanguard was the last MMO on the planet.
got a bit excited about this then i realized it was Sony and knowing what their FTP model was/is for Evequest II that quickly vaporized
as soon as i hear about animations being revamped i'll probably give it another go.
the "behind the scenes" game is very very good (i love in depth crafting and group pve) but the animations were so horrid i actually felt embarrassed to play the game around friends and family.

I like vanguard, subscribe now and then. What gets me to unsubscribe however, is that fairly early on it became painfully obvious to me that quests were a far slower method of levelling than simply grinding in a dungeon. The quest experience reward was often worth what one or two monsters would give in the dungeon, so it became just one long grind for me.

I played on release for the first month, but at the time it couldn't convice me to play it over WoW. Now that I've essentially left WoW behind, giving Vanguard another shot sounds like a great idea. Looking forward to the F2P release.

Ezell introduced at ETSU
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - ETSU introduced its new women's basketball coach on campus Wednesday.
Brittney Ezell is inheriting a team that went 8-18 overall and 6-12 in Atlantic Sun play last season.
A former two-sport star in softball and basketball at the University of Alabama, Ezell has spent the last three seasons as the head women's basketball coach at Belmont University in Nashville.
"We are extremely pleased to welcome Coach Ezell to ETSU, and we are excited about the leadership and passion she will bring to our program," said ETSU interim Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Dr. Richard Sander.
"I am confident Coach Ezell can make our program a consistent winner and get us back to the NCAA Tournament."
Ezell said she was honored by the opportunity to coach the Lady Bucs.
"It is such an exciting time to be an East Tennessee State Buccaneer and it is truly an honor to have the opportunity to work with Dr. Richard Sander and Dr. Brian Noland," Ezell said.
"I am eager to get to work and to help restore the women's basketball program to a championship level."
