This unit broke 3 times while under warranty and was able to be repaired. Unit finally had a broken transmission after it was out of warranty after under 4 years. $1000 to repair. The dryer lint trap does not line up well with the machine, letting a lot of lint into the inside of the machine. I would recommend the laundromat over this set.

I am so happy that I made this purchase. Works so well and amazingly quiet.

We bought this laundry center about 10 years ago to use in the house that our daughter was renting. She used it for the five years that she lived there. Then we moved into that house for two years, using it on an almost-daily basis to do the laundry for our family--two adults and two grown boys. After we moved out, we gave the machine to our son to use in his house, and he has used it regularly ever since. That's a lot of laundry! Maybe they've changed the design since we bought our machine, but we haven't had ANY problems with that machine. We have had a Maintenance Protection Agreement on it since we bought it, but we've only had the usual yearly checkups, with no issues. I've been pretty good about keeping the lint filter and keeping the ductwork clean (occasional vacuuming)--that's a bit irritating, but necessary. Now that we're in a new home, we have been using a Kenmore HE Front-Loader set (working well, with no issues!), but we're going to downsize and get the HE version of this laundry center. Looking forward to it!

I agree with an earlier reviewer that this design must be from an eastern block country circa 1940's. It has NO frills what so ever. It's very loud and the random knocking sounds makes me think something is going to break at any second. It's ridiculously slow. (A light normal light load takes 52 minutes.) That said, I've had it for 8 months with no problems. It's installed it a condo that I rent. Because of all the bad reviews, I purchased the Sears 3 year extended warranty. Even if I was 100% pleased with it, I still wouldn't recommend it because of the automated Sears phone system. It took me over an hour to find someone that would give me the number of the salesman that sold me the machine. Please hire some real engineers and do a total redesign making it faster, quieter, more reliable, Eco-friendly, and with some modern features that stand alone machines have.

I have had this unit for 1 week after my 12 year old Kenmore unit died. Its is great. I wash about 2 loads a day. With 3 small kids it gets lots of use. I love the auto water level feature. I feel in the long run it will save on the water bill by leaving it on automatic instead of a small, medium or large load. I'm loving the fabric softener dispenser button. No more downey ball for me. Also, the dryer is huge. Has cut down on my drying big time. The only small issue is the sound it makes when it washes. I didn't even notice at first. With kids home all day all I hear are the kids so I only noticed it after we had it a few days and the kids were in bed. But its not loud enough to annoy me so to me its no big deal. I recommend this product to anyone.

I had my unit for 2 years. The main seal broke and the transmission needed replacement. $500.00 repair.

I have had this unit for a week now - we've done about 8 loads of laundry. I am concerned about the noises it makes when it changes gears. The agitation cycle seems to be pretty loud as well. The dryer takes forever to dry clothing!

I have had this machine for 6 years. The level sensor system has quit woking 3 times and the water has overflowed the tub each time. Wash water runs everywhere. It appears the tube running down into the tub gets clogged up

We have been living with one of these Sears laundry centers for about 2 years. So far we have not seen any of the mechanical problems described by other reviewers, however there are problems. About once every two weeks a shirt button will get caught in the dryer tub vent screen. The shirt will twist up into a wrinkled mess, and the button will come off the shirt. It seems the square holes in the vent screen are just the right size to catch and hold a button. Very annoying. When the spin cycle engages, the machine is as noisy as a locomotive. Fortunately we can close a door to the laundry area, and at least decrease the noise. Cant imagine this in a small apartment. Other than that it seems to wash and dry fine, but I would not recommend the machine to anyone.

Resisting Play-Doh
You Know You're a Mother When: Resisting Play-Doh
Some of my most vivid childhood memories involve sitting at the kitchen table and playing with Play-Doh sets for hours on end. Now that my daughter's about to turn two, I planned on purchasing some and even found an organic version, but a friend recently cautioned against it.
When she introduced her son to the classic modeling clay, she envisioned afternoons of creative play. Instead, she found herself finding tiny wads of the dried up dough in every corner of her home for days after the lids had been replaced on the containers. She also started making up excuses as to why he couldn't bring out the sets, fearing that she'd spend the next five years of her life finding the lil pieces in crevices that she didn't even know existed.
Do you allow Play-Doh? And, do you have any tricks for keeping it contained?

the endings kind of make me mad if the anime was good because i want to see more of it. but i don't get sad from stuff like this
one of the best anime endings that made me cry was, Wolf's rain..it was the very first that i've watched that made me cry..
one of the worst anime endings that i've seen..uhm for me it is, rumbling hearts..i hate it..i think it's lame..it makes me mad just thinking about it ):
one of the greatest anime endings that inspired me is ayashi no ceres and fushigi yuugi..
there are so much more...^^
"Never tell a man that you love him until he has declared his undying love for you."
the endings kind of make me mad if the anime was good because i want to see more of it. but i don't get sad from stuff like this
Instant beast.. Just add water
well there are some anime dat make me sad and hurt inside..and also make me want to stop da world in order for me 2 erase wat hppen on dat episode...such as trinity blood..(i miss dat show)...anyway it was sad..i dnt want to spoil anything but u just have 2 find out on crunchyroll.com..also naruto even if i'm not by da ending..i have a feeling it is goin 2 make me cry n break my new computer..especially when i heard dat kakashi is goin die...whyyyyyyyyyyyy.....i got 2 brace wats comin up on da show n when i read da manga...
Animes with happy endings don't seem to be remembered as vividly as anime that ends sadly. But there have been a few that ended on a happy note. Tenchi Universe ended great. The one anime that I think had a perfect ending was Rumbling Hearts. Nobody got screwed and everyone was able to move on.
Not most of the time, as I take issue with vague endings. A good deal of anime series don't tie up loose plot threads by the time the credits roll for the final episode. Sure, we all love to read between the lines every now and then, but at least they shouldn't leave us hanging all the time.
Though I've yet to see Grave of the Fireflies. People whose opinions I trust say that the film's a tragedy's tragedy when it comes to anime. Even though from the get-go you'd know how the story ends for our hero and his baby sister.
Overall, I prefer happy endings.
If you work for a living, why do you kill yourself working?

I'm breaking right now because i just watch the last show of code gease and that had alot of questions and no answers but I know what lelouch real plan was he wanted a new world and all the crimes where on him so. sorry im not going to spoil it. but i just hate how your favorite charrater dies and loses every thing but not his will. wolf rain deffrently was the most saddess show i have ever seen and trinity blood a boy lost his father and his brother and sister thats in a cacune but attuachlly gotten well i believe that their his duaghters attuachlly sadisfy me the most. I also hate endings off of movies like priencess monokeiy and nassacka from the Valley of the wind (sorry for the spelling) was sad and porko roso also was not the ending i wanted and not suspecting it.
only only ONLY the ending of Code Geass.
Any others are like, nothing, in my eyes.
I don't know why, really. It just got to me. Really bad, I may add...
I won't let this world exist without me! If I die, we all die! / Avatar & Signature by anime_8000.
Teh ending for trintiy blood was also horrible. Cane is still alive, neither stayed with Esther.

During a breakout season in 2012, Schoepfer, a forward, was Boston's second leading scorer and ranked fourth in the now defunct Women's Professional Soccer League Elite with seven goals and six assists.
Schoepfer, a 24-year-old Waterford native, also played for the Breakers in 2011 and had two goals and two assists in 13 games. She made her professional debut in 2010 with Sky Blue FC in the WPS. Her resume includes national team experience with the U.S. Under-23 and Under-17 teams. She was an All-American at Penn State.

you cant really decide what you watch on the news but you can with anime
I like the news in anime tho :P
you cant really decide what you watch on the news but you can with anime
Kind of like an antidote to all the depression you get while watching the news, eh?Originally Posted by *Innocent Anime Angel*
Um..i forget what time the news is on so i watch it rarely :P But i watched this thing about a whale in London hehe but other than that its anime all the way!
TY Sasurai for the lovely sig!*
Isn't there like, a channel that broadcasts news for almost the entire day? We have several of that here.
Look... if the news just wore more interesting outfits and started having awesome battles and made REALLY humorous replies and had relationships between each other and EVERYTHING COULD EXPLODE...
Then Hell, we'd all watch the news.
would you rather watch a cartoon featuring fake people beating the shit out each and dying, or hear about real people really dying on the news everyday?
News Flash: The news is depressing. Informative, but depressing. The only way they get people to watch is to be depressing. anime is made especially for entertainment, comparing the news, which is for hopefully correct information on current events, is not seen as entertainment to me. They are two different kinds of television; barely comparable. Interresting topic...
Yeah, and most people generally prefer to be entertained than have their hearts broken. ^^;;; Not that watching the news is a bad thing... it's just a matter of preference. I do think lots of teenagers today SHOULD watch the news more often. Loads of my friends don't even read the papers, they just flip to the comics section and finish in less than 5 minutes.

HP, Sirius, Micron: Tech Pre-Market
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- HP (HPQ - Get Report) was a big winner before market open on Wednesday, boosted by analyst upgrades.
Citi Research, for example, upgraded HP to buy from sell early on Wednesday, citing potential for upside at the embattled tech giant. Catalysts for the stock include an uptick in HP's services business and the financial benefits of the firm's cost-cutting, according to Citi.
Shares of HP rose 2.67% to $26.15 before market open.
Sirius XM (SIRI - Get Report) was also a winner as the Internet radio giant continues its recent momentum.
Shares of Sirius climbed 0.7% to $3.62 before market open, after gaining 2.3% during Tuesday's trading. In a statement released early on Tuesday, Sirius announced that it added 715,000 net new subscribers during the second quarter, taking its total subscribers to more than 25 million. Sirius also raised its full-year guidance for total net subscriber additions to 1.5 million, from its previous guidance of 1.4 million. The New York-based firm was also one of Wednesday's most active pre-market Nasdaq stocks on share volume of 432,505. Social gamer Zynga (ZNGA - Get Report) was another winner, climbing 2.1% to $3.41, while its partner Facebook (FB - Get Report) rose 0.47% to $25.60.

Dole Food Company, Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter And Full Year Results
Dole Food Company, Inc. (NYSE: DOLE) today announced financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 29, 2012. The consummation of the sale of Dole's worldwide packaged foods and Asia fresh businesses on April 1, 2013 to ITOCHU Corporation, for $1.685 billion in cash, will result in a major portion of Dole's operations being sold. The new Dole will have a smaller footprint as a commodity produce company with two lines of fresh produce businesses, which are classified as continuing operations: fresh fruit and fresh vegetables; and will no longer include the worldwide packaged foods and Asia fresh businesses as part of the Dole operations, which are classified as discontinued operations.
Dole reported results from its continuing operations (the two lines of fresh produce businesses remaining with the new Dole).
For the fourth quarter of 2012 Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was $(12) million compared to $11 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. Income (loss) from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $(88) million, or $(0.99) per share, compared to $6 million, or $0.06 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2011. Comparable income (loss) from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of 2012 was a loss of $(52) million, or $(0.59) per share, compared to $4 million, or $0.05 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2011 (see Exhibit 3).
For the full year, Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was $146 million compared to $196 million in 2011. Income from continuing operations for fiscal 2012 was $1 million, compared to $102 million, or $1.15 per share in 2011. Comparable income from continuing operations for fiscal 2012 was $44 million, or $0.49 per share, compared to $122 million, or $1.37 per share, in 2011 (see Exhibit 3).
"Fiscal 2012 results for both Dole's continuing operations and its discontinued operations were lower compared to 2011 mainly due to banana market conditions and non-recurring charges for ITOCHU transaction related costs, provisions for certain previously-disclosed legal-related matters, and charges related to Typhoon Bopha in Asia," said C. Michael Carter, Dole's President and Chief Operating Officer. "The combined revenue of Dole's discontinued operations being sold represented approximately 38% of Dole's revenues, at $2.6 billion in 2012. The new Dole will continue as an international commodity produce company with a smaller footprint, retaining its entire North American fresh vegetables business as well as its fresh fruit businesses in North America, Latin America, Europe and Africa, which together generated $4.2 billion in revenues in fiscal 2012 and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $146 million."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

NBA Feet: James Harden Runs The One In Win VS Cavs by Patrick Johnson 1 Comments
looks like we'll hopefully be seeing a matte finish color option for the upper on the lebron X's soon. Not that i care but it looks better than the glossy option.
March 27, 2013 BY John Kim / 3
Just a handful of games went down over the last tw nights. but NBA Feet was at full force in both quantity and quality. Kobe Bryant debuted a new "Away" colorway of the Nike Kobe 8 which has possible roots in iD, while LeBron James kept his streak going with a Black/Red PE of the Nike LeBron X. NBA Feet MVP candidate Derrick Williams wore the Air Jordan XVI "Midnight Navy" OG for part of the game, and bonafide Jordan athlete Ray Allen went with the Bred XIII with a red lace-swap. The NBA Feet highlight of this recap goes to none other than John Wall, who did the adidas CrazyQuick proud by putting up a career best 47 points while backing it up with 7 boards and 8 assists. A full recap of the last two nights is just ahead so stay tuned for more later this week!

President Obama arrived in Belfast, Northern Ireland on Monday. He appealed to Northern Ireland's youth to sustain their peace in his first opportunity to highlight the role the United States has played helping bring about reconciliation in the country. He delivered a speech to a largely young audience at the Belfast Waterfront Hall, where President Clinton delivered his 1998 address to Northern Ireland. President Obama spoke primarily of the future. Following the speech, President Obama was to move to the Lough Erne Golf Resort for the G8 economic summit. While it was unclear whether any of the world leaders would make it onto the links for a round of golf, the president was scheduled to arrive by helicopter on the 14th hole of the Faldo Course.

Think Corporate Tax Cuts Create Jobs? Think Again.
by Scott Klinger, 2/25/2015
Nine million unemployed Americans want to work, but they can't find a job. Nearly seven million more are working part-time but want full-time work. We still have a job shortage in this country. Many in Congress think the solution is more corporate tax cuts.

e.l.f. Essential Professional Travel Brush Kit
- $5.00
Professional Travel Brush Kit is rated out of 5 by 35.
Rated 3 out of 5 by EmmaM from Not a complete travel kit I was expecting this to be a bit bigger. Even for travel size, the brushes are quite small. Especially the "powder brush." I see this as being more for blush or contouring. I would definitely bring a couple other brushes with me, such as a full sized face brush and a couple others. For $5, it's a great starter kit to have. The case is sturdy and professional looking.
Date published: 2014-11-21
Rated 1 out of 5 by arcadiarose from Cheap This is a really cheap set. The handles are not glued on very well, the sponge tip comes right of the sponge applicator, and the large powder brush sheds. The two eye brushes and the eyebrow comb/brush work OK in a pinch, but aren't the usual e.l.f. quality. The little travel roll is decently made, though. I put my better travel brushes in it.
Date published: 2014-10-28
Rated 3 out of 5 by LarraKyleen from About what you would expect I got this travel set, and most of the brushes are an average, usable quality. None of them are outstanding or my favorites, but they're perfectly usable. The big face brush, however, sheds fibers like they're going out of style; additionally, it's very rough on the skin. I don't feel like it's a terrible deal for $5, but for that price I would rather just buy 5 of elf's dollar brushes that I really love.
Date published: 2014-09-30
Rated 5 out of 5 by Peggy from I love this set, but I have a set that I bought about a year ago and I just love it and that is why I bought another set.
Date published: 2014-09-30
Rated 1 out of 5 by Trinimia from Horrid quality I got this brush set a few days ago and was excited about having it for my purse but OMG the powder brush is so coarse it's unbelievable. I'm so upset, I'm not expecting cashmere for the price but not something so harsh on the face. And the shedding is so annoying, it sheds a lot. At this rate I doubt there'll be any bristles left after a week. Very disappointing :(
Date published: 2014-08-22
Rated 3 out of 5 by Zoseph from I really love how convenient this is to pack around but the powder brush is horrid, the bristles are rough and it sheds like crazy.
Date published: 2014-08-06
Rated 2 out of 5 by DraykesMom from Ok I bought this product about 2 months ago. All the brushes are good for travel use with the exception of the full use brush. With a swipe of face powder on my face I had the bristles all over my face.
Date published: 2014-06-03
Rated 3 out of 5 by Larissa from Cute but incomplete With the exception of the powder brush, I am glad I bought it. It's good for traveling but you need to bring your everyday powder brush with you too. The powder brush sheds horribly and is soooo pokey and irritating on the skin. Because of that, I would call this set incomplete.

Hi, I'm a generally exuberant person who prefers to talk about games I love rather than games I hate. Luckily, I have pretty varied taste.
I've been gaming since the mid 80's and don't plan on stopping any time soon. I think it's a great form of expression and am generally excited to see which way the industry goes next!

It occurred to me I perhaps should have done this blog second or maybe third. What I've posted is getting a little long and I think this will be my last post on the Monster Hunter. If anyone is still interested or has questions feel free to drop a comment as I try to follow all the comments on my blog posts.
This blog post will be all about the hunt, sort of the namesake of MH. Hunting is really divided up into two portions: Preparation and Execution, and this post will outline those aspects separately.
Monster Hunter is a series that is as much about planning as it is about execution. This aspect is one of the key things that sets it apart from any other action based game. My previous points somewhat foreshadowed that, talking about Weapon Choice and Armor Choice, both of which are in essence preparative acts. But the immediate preparation for a hunt is another layer of preparation that a lot of other games dont have and is sort of a defining characteristic of Monster Hunter.
The primary aspect of hunt prep is consumables. If you play a little you will often notice little nodes strewn around the map where you can gather things like herbs, mushrooms, whetstones, stones, and a panoply of other things. While some of these things are used to craft/upgrade gear, a majority of them are intended to be combined with other things to make consumeables which will help you take down monsters easier.
Item Collection
Most people see item collection for consumables a bit of a burden in MH, including myself (seriously I need more spider webs!!!). Luckily, the Farm and the Fishing Fleet in the single player campaign give you a steady stream of materials to make consumables. Both the farm and the fishing fleet are unlocked as you play through the beginning stages of the early game.
Take advantage of these, even if you play on line, make an effort to get through the offline portion of low rank stuff to upgrade your farm / fishing fleet. It pays off bigtime once you get to high rank saving you both time and money in game.
Consumables and Item Combos
The obvious question I wanted to get to quickly is this: What do I need to make consumables which are useful? The answer to this is that it depends on the monster. But ultimately, consumables are massively effective and should not be avoided. A well placed / timed flash bomb can be the difference between a 5 minute kill on a rathalos, or a 15 minute kill. Bombs can do more damage than you can in a short amount of time, etc. While not all monsters are affected by all consumables, most are by one or two. Here is a short list of what I think is most important, along with their combinations. (Note that before trying to combine them, its recommended that you buy the combination manuals from the vendor so that when combining in your box the combo rate will be 100%).
Shock Trap - Thunderbug + Trap Tool
Pitfall Trap - Net + Trap Tool
Flash Bomb - Flashbug + Bomb Casing
Sonic Bomb - Gunpowder + Screamer
Dung Bomb - Dung + Bomb Casing
Potion - Herb + Blue Mushroom
Mega Potion - Potion + Honey
Barrel Bomb L - Large Barrel + Gunpowder
Barrel Bomb L+ - Barrel Bomb L + Scatterfish
Barrel Bomb S - Small Barrel + Fire Herb
Using these consumables at the right moment can render monsters incapacitated for 5-20 seconds, giving you ample time to beat on them to break their parts, or just put out damage. A lot of new players dont understand the use of consumables, but one of the keys to quick runs is utilizing consumables to increase your effective time to damage monsters. Just note that when monsters are enraged (next section) the consumables will have diminished or no effect, and also after using one type on an enemy the next one of the same type may have diminished effect (e.g. using 2 shock traps on an enemy in 1 hunt).
The Hunt (Execution)
The other big aspect of hunting is actually taking on the monster itself. I dont want to go too much into combat mechanics here, but rather things to keep in mind while hunting. One of the most mystifying things for many new players is things like trapping enemies, or why they sometimes become more dangerous or ferocious, and that is what this section will be about.
Monster States
Monsters have 5 states, more or less, and each one indicates something different.
A patrolling unalert state, which is what they are in default before they have detected you as the hunter. A monster going from their unalert state to alert will always have the cheesy red exclamation point, as well as some sort of fanfare which you can usually take advantage of to deal a little damage, though this will often be a Roar, which will leave you prone unless you are using the armor skill Earplugs or Earplugs HG.
The next state is the normal combat state. This is the state the monster is in by default when the fight starts. This state will last depending on the rate at which you damage the enemy and honestly I dont know all the details for this state change.
The next state is when the monster is most weak. For most monsters, after about 5 minutes it will become Exhausted (though, this depends on the monster and the weapon you are using). You can tell when a monster is exhausted by two things. Not only will it be more slow or docile, but it may attempt to attack and end up flopping on the ground at the end of its attack, but the better tell is to look at its mouth. If the monster looks like its drooling, its probably exhausted. Take advantage of this state as much as you can. Exhausted monsters are more affected by consumables (Traps last twice as long, for example) and are generally much easier to connect with in terms of attack.
Exhausted monsters will often try to do something to regain some of their stamina. In order to do this they either need to a) eat or b) sleep. If you can interrupt either, you can prevent the monster from regaining stamina and you will probably have an easier time killing it. So, if a monster flees an area, try to chase it as best you can (paintballs come in handy here). They tend to move faster than you, but if you are diligent you can generally catch up before its too late.
Monsters will also enrage. This is where monsters are much more problematic. Enraged monsters move more quickly, and often deal more damage. They have less recovery time after each attack, and consumables will last less time or not work at all. If a monster just started kicking your ass seemingly out of nowhere, it probably went into rage mode.
Monsters go into rage mode for various reasons, though its usually marked by a large roar to indicate that its pissed. Additionally, enraged monsters also have puffs of smoke either white or black that will come out of its face or other body parts. Some monsters its very easy to tell if they are enraged (deviljho), while others may need a more trained eye (diablos). But look for that smoke coming out of the monsters mouth or head orifice, as thats usually the tell.
Triggering enrage mode is tricky and I believe it is a combination of time spent fighting, damage taken, and staggers or breaks (See below). Often, once you break a monster part, they will stagger, roar, and then go into full rage mode.
Note that rage mode overrides exhausted, so even if the monster was exhausted it can still be dangerous if it goes into rage mode (which it will) so be alert.
This isnt exactly a monster state but I list it as one anyway. Once a monster has taken 90% of its hp in damage it will begin limping. This is only visible when it is either a) walking around unalerted, or b) transitioning from one area to another or retreating.
Limping is important because it is the indication that you are almost done with the fight, or that you need to capture the enemy. Some players mistakenly think the drooling tell is an indication that a monster is ready for capture (At least I did as a newb), but that is wrong. When the monster begins to limp, that is your signal to capture it. If youre on a capture quest (or just like capturing because of the rewards / reduced time) keep an eye out for this tell.
Hurting Monsters
Monsters have two types of health pools. First, the general health pool. This is the monsters total HP. Once it is depleted to zero, the monster dies. But as you may have noticed, monsters do not have HP bars, so guaging how much damage you are doing to them is more nuanced. You can see if youre doing effective damage by staggers, breaks, (below) and the limping from above.
(Qurupeco Hitzones)
In MH every monster consists of multiple hitzones. Each hit does damage depending on how vulnerable that part is. In general, monsters tend to be most vulnerable in the head or the stomach and least vulnerable in the back or the wings (though there are exceptions to this rule). Hitting a monster in the head might do 4 times as much damage as hitting it in the leg. However, hitting in the leg may be significantly easier, so dont pass on opportunity for free attacks just because it isnt the weakest point.
In many action games, combos are dependent on staggering the enemy, where the first hit knocks the monster back a little, and the next hit continues this knockback animation. MH has a stagger system but its nothing like this. Generally, once a body part reaches a threshold of damage, it will stagger. This generally applies to all body parts. Staggering an enemy at the right time can knock them down, giving you free time to wail on them, though timing staggers is generally impossible (or doable with an insane amount of practice vs a single monster).
This is one of the key indications that you are actually hurting the monster and progressing. Additionally, as the monster becomes more injured, the stagger threshold reduces. This means that if you seem to be knocking the monster down a ton in a short amount of time, its probably close to dead, so keep at it!
Breaking / Cutting
(Rathalos with tail vs. tail sever)
Breaking is one of the key aspects of MH. Breaking monster parts serves three purposes. First: it indicates that you are making progress toward taking down a monster, second: it often reduces the effectiveness of a monster, and third: it increases your rewards at the end of the fight (even more if you capture).
You may have noticed this as all large monsters have at least 1 breakable part. Great jaggis frill around his neck will break if you hit him in the face enough, Azuros claws will break if you hit his hands, etc. etc. Some monsters will be seriously impaired if you can break their parts, for example Barioth becomes a pushover if his wings are broken, and most monsters have a tail whip which is reduced in range if the tail is cut off.
Breaking and Cutting is key to getting the parts of the monster you need to make gear, as well as making the monster easier to fight, so go for those breakable parts!
Capturing Monsters
One last note, because I found it completely mystifying when I was new, is on capturing monsters. To cap a monster, you need to have 3 conditions: It needs to be trapped, it needs to be tranquilized, and it needs to have 10% or less of its life left. When I was new, this seemed overwhelming and when I was hunting for materials I often chose kill quests over cap quests, but now that Im more experienced I almost exclusively capture monsters.
It is simply much faster because its 10% less damage that you have to deal. Admittedly, you have to be careful if you can kill monsters quickly, but by paying attention (or taking the skill Perception / Capture Guru and using a paintball - the mark on the minimap will flash when its ready to be captured) you can reduce the time to finish the hunt by 10% which is significant. Additionally, you get better rewards at the end of the mission, typically more rare materials which is often more useful than the normal materials you can gain from the 3-4 carves you get on monsters normally after killing them.
One of the other problems can be preparation and trap placement. When going on a cap quest keep in mind the following: You will always be gifted with a free trap. However, always take one of your own as well. While it is nice to have the free trap, nothing sucks more than beating a monster into submission then failing a mission because the monster didnt trigger the trap, or while it was trapped you couldnt tranq it.
Second, dont be hasty with your traps! While it may be tempting to try an intercept a monster before he leaves the area, make sure you have time to set the trap up to stop it before it does, otherwise the trap will be wasted and any time you saved from doing a cap quest is lost (because you can only have 1 trap down at a time). When you are trapping an enemy do it either when they are in a long animation (i.e. the Qurupeco Buff Dance) or put the trap in a place you KNOW the monster will step on or wait until it runs off to take a nap and trap it while its sleeping.
Once trapped, toss your tranq bombs or shoot your tranq shots and thats it.
Welp, that concludes my MH beginners stuff. Its huge, almost essay like and I apologize for that. Ive tried to strike a balance between being clear and comprehensive, and being concise and easy for beginners to understand. So I hope you enjoyed it, and as long as I reached one new player I will consider this forray worth it.

Changchun Railway Vehicles
Changchun Railway Vehicles Company Ltd. (长春轨道客车) is a Chinese rolling stock manufacturer under China CNR Corporation. While the CRV emerged in 2002, the company's roots date back to the establishment of the Changchun Car Company in 1954.
The company has a joint venture established with Bombardier Transportation (Changchun Bombardier Railway Vehicles Co Ltd) to build Movia metro cars for the Guangzhou Metro and Shanghai Metro,[1] and Rapid Transit Vehicle cars for the Tianjin Metro.
The company supplied 17 trains for the Al Mashaaer Al Mugaddassah Metro in Saudi Arabia[when?][2] and Tehran Metro Line 1 & 2.[3]
On June 25, 2010 the company delivered 12 new sets of 4C engines and carriages to Thailand's Bangkok Mass Transit System Public Company Limited (BTSC) in a deal said to be valued at US$70 million. The funding will be in the form of letters of credit issued by Bangkok Bank.
Each train set will comprise a motor car at each end, with two trailer cars in the middle. The carriages will be deployed on the Silom line, which runs through the heart of the business and financial districts along Silom and Sathon Roads, terminating at the National Stadium and Wongwian Yai. BTS Skytrain say the 12 train sets each have a capacity of 1,490 passengers, while the current 3C series can only hold 1,106. The majority of 3C trains that operated on the Silom line have been converted to operate on the Siemens signaling system in use on the original Sukhumvit line which runs northwards and eastwards between Mo Chit and Bearing.

The Zonal Cultural Centres have yet to make a tangible impact.
It was 25 years ago that the concept of the Zonal Cultural Centres was initiated with the idea of "taking the resurgent cultures of India out to the masses where they live instead of confining Indian Cultural Renaissance to just auditoria and galleries," where the clientele gets limited to urban audiences and viewers. The idea was not to make these centres State-oriented but "comprise several States belonging to a composite geographical region, and sharing certain cultural similarities." So instead of headquarters in any State capital, these centres were located at certain pivotal cultural points on the Indian map.
Thus rather than Chandigarh it was Patiala that hosted the North ZCC, Thanjavur and not Chennai that hosted the South ZCC, Santiniketan rather than Kolkata where the East ZCC was located and Udaipur rather than Jaipur where the West Zone cultural Centre had its headquarters. Dimapur became the centre for the North East ZCC, Nagpur for South Central ZCC and Allahabad for North Central ZCC. To save these centres from State Politics, it was decided to place them under the chairmanship of the Governor of the particular Zone, with adequate representation on the Governing Council and various Committees of the ZCC from all component States and Union Department/Ministry of Culture. A generous corpus fund provided by the Centre and State governments was to ensure a degree of autonomy to these centres, in conducting their work. Encouraging arts and crafts in a holistic fashion along with performing art traditions, the idea was to prioritise folk and tribal art forms (classical art forms too were to be presented) so that these artistes do not feel intimidated by classical artistes or discriminated against the elite renowned artiste class. Enough encouragement was to be given to new and upcoming artistes with the hope and expectation that senior artistes would be forthcoming in lending their support to the ZCC's.
What started off with high aims helping national integration through the arts and enabling them to function as an instrument of social change gradually got diluted in perspective. Zonal Centres were often headed by persons who knew little and cared even less about arts and culture. Governors and SNA representatives as ex officio members of these centres were too busy to devote much time to the working of these centres. Classical artistes dominated programme space and the tendency to choose urban areas rather than out of the way places for activities, defeated the main aim of these centres. A people-oriented calendar with cross-country cultural Yatras, participation in cattle fairs, and mass religious celebrations such as Kumbh melas and Urs where urban and rural populations can be equally involved and a whole gamut of pan-zonal art forms can be seen in all encompassing vigour and diversity, did not find enough representation. The out-reach perspective was clearly being diluted, leaving out the aam aadmi. The documentation work undertaken by these centres cannot be of the same level as the Akademies and generally the Akademies treated the Zonal Centres as the poor cousins who had to be satisfied with the crumbs from the rich man's table. Participating in programmes abroad (economically helpful) became a heady proposition further taking away from the main purpose of these centres.
Future guidelines
The stock taking exercise under Mani Shankar Aiyar's Chairmanship with Sitakant Mahapatra and Amol Palekar as Members after an exhaustive over-view has spelt out certain guidelines for the future. Ensuring even intra-zonal cooperation is difficult. When artistes travel performing in out-of-the-way places, expecting for instance a Nagaland performer to be living for days on just rice and sambar would be unrealistic.
At last the cultural policy makers seem to have woken up and courses for training cultural administrators have started in various places. Something like the event 'Octave' showcasing telling excerpts from the unending variety of performing art traditions of the North-East, first designed by the SNA with the Zonal Cultural Centre involved, has not only given an exposure to millions in the country to the rich culture of the North-East, but it has also opened the eyes of the artistes of the North Eastern States to several parts of India they had only heard of but never visited. To encourage website for ZCC, to start artiste insurance schemes, to have chain programmes as done by SPIC MACAY, to help Guru/Shishya Parampara schemes by ensuring some succour in old age and to have more collaboration and help from the Akademies and to increase outreach programmes is part of the guidelines which hopefully will lead to better functioning of the Zonal Centres.

It doesn't matter whether you're looking for a gift suitable for a 12 year old, a 72 year old or anyone in between, we've got it covered.
Enjoy your Gift Experience Day!

Fallout: New Vegas - J.E. Sawyer Mod v5.1
JE Sawyer has released v5 and then subsequently v5.1 of his "hardcore" mod for Fallout: New Vegas. Follow the link for the notes.
More information. |
Cool loved his mod and game. Better then Fallout 3 BY FAR. Unfortunately my PC crashed when I was half was through the game…will have to wait a few years and replay it.
This is certainly on my list of mods to try out, so thanks for the new update. I've still got Old World Blues to playthrough and another new character build in mind, so this should fit the bill nicely.
