The hallway leads to a play room (recreation room with large bar area. There is a guest room and full bath behind that room. The left side of the Y as you face the home from the street includes the living spaces and the right hand side of the Y has 4 bedrooms and two full baths. The rear of the house has glass sliders leading out onto covered and uncovered terraces with steps leading down to the yard. A pool had been contemplated but was never built.
The flat roof and white brick were very unusual at the time. The Charlotte Observer ran a color photo story about the house at the time and interviewed my mother Daisy Salcines for the article.
"Our family took many weekend trips to Greenville South Carolina to the home of the Cuban architect Gustavo Moreno to finalize the design. My family left Cuba in August of 1961 right after the Bay of Pigs invasion. The Moreno family and our family always enjoyed a traditional Cuban meal each time before we headed back to Charlotte. Being able to gather with other Cuban families at that time was very meaningful because everyone who had left the Island felt very homesick and there was a lot of nostalgia accompanied by dwindling hopes of ever being able to return. The front door which is a double door was cut from a piece of wood that was used for the doors of the Metropolitan Opera House being crafted that same year. As I mentioned yesterday my mother also had two commercial water fountains installed in the house (Kitchen/play room) to keep the three of us from constantly grabbing glasses and ice and leaving them in the sink. All of these little details came back for me last night and brought me a lot of joy just remembering." Transferred in 2015 to Salcine's Trust.

Elsa Schiaparelli marvelled in the art of the oxymoron. A silhouette of pure, sharp contour is transcended by a vision of the ordinary becoming spectacular. It reveals a strong woman with Parisian allure and cosmopolitan fantasy. Today is about defining the essence of a style in fostering the paradoxes of such an eclectic personality.

Toyota Logo and Its History
The Toyota Logo and some History behind this auto giant.
One of the top automotive manufacturers in the world, Toyota has been selling a wide range of vehicles since the company was founded in 1939. The Japanese car manufacturer sold over 8.5 million cars in 2016 and netted over $2.3 billion. In this article, we'll look at the Toyota Logo and the history of the company, and the role the logo has played in the company's astounding success.
This History of Toyota
For all their success in the automobile industry, Toyota didn't start out selling vehicles. At least the company that Toyota was a subsidiary of did not. Instead, the company, then known as Toyoda Automatic Loom Works, started out selling textiles and automatic looms. In the early 1930s, however, the Japanese government began urging Toyoda to expand into automobile production in order to supply the nation's ongoing war with China. Kiichiro Toyoda, the son of the company's founder, traveled to Europe to investigate the intricacies of automobile production, and in 1934 the company produced its first Type A engine. One year later, Toyoda was manufacturing its first vehicle, the Model AA passenger car.
Shortly after that, the automobile manufacturing wing of Toyoda Automatic Loom Works became its own company, which was named Toyota. The explanation behind the change in just a single letter was the fact that, in the Japanese spelling of the word, the new name consisted of eight strokes—a lucky number in Eastern culture.
During the Second World War, Toyota dedicated all of its efforts to manufacturing simple trucks to be used by the Japanese military. Allied forces recognized the contribution Toyota was making to the Japanese war effort and scheduled a bombing raid on their factories that would have likely crippled the young company. However, in a stroke of good fortune for Toyota, the war ended before the attack could be carried out.
With the war over, though, Toyota still faced many challenges. The Japanese economy was crippled, and Toyota spent several years on the brink of bankruptcy. In spite of this, the company held on and slowly began to expand. By the end of the 1960s, Toyota had exported its one-millionth automobile.
Today, Toyota has carved out a large share of the global automobile market by selling affordable, fuel-efficient trucks, cars, and SUVs. It is also the second most profitable company in Japan, coming in just behind fellow Japanese car manufacturer Mitsubishi. What role, though, did Toyota's logo play in the company's success, and how did it come about?
The Toyota Logo
The first logo for Toyota came about as the result of a public competition. It was also during this competition that the name "Toyota" was suggested to replace the name "Toyoda". The company went with the results of the competition, changing its name to Toyota and choosing a blue and red, diamond-shaped emblem as the company's very first logo.
This logo served the company until 1989 when Toyota unveiled a new logo to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the company. This new logo featured three separate ovals combined together and is the logo still used by the company to this day. According to Toyota, designers spent five years developing the new logo to ensure that the design would be well-accepted in all of the company's many international markets.
Toyota debuted the new logo on their luxury vehicle, the Celsior, in October of 1989. Shortly after that, the new logo was found on every Toyota vehicle in production.
Design Elements of the Toyota Logo
The Toyota logo may appear relatively simplistic at first glance, however, it contains several exciting and unique design elements. To see the meaning behind the Toyota logo, one need look no further than Toyota's own explanation:
"The two perpendicular ovals inside the larger oval represent the heart of the customer and the heart of the company. They are overlapped to represent a mutually beneficial relationship and trust between each other. The overlapping of the two perpendicular ovals inside the outer oval symbolizes "T" for Toyota, as well as a steering wheel, representing the vehicle itself. The outer oval symbolizes the world embracing Toyota. Each oval is contoured with different stroke thicknesses, similar to the "brush" art known in Japanese culture."
In addition to this, Toyota set out to design a logo that would be immediately recognizable and announce the presence of a Toyota vehicle on the road. To do this, Toyota designed the logo to look the same when viewed normally and when viewed inversed (as it would be when viewed through a rear-view mirror). This is an especially impressive feat when considering all the other messages the logo manages to incorporate.
Even today, the Toyota logo stands unparalleled as one of the most complexly designed logos in the automotive industry, and Toyota is an excellent example of a company that has placed an immense amount of importance on their logo design.
The Popularity of the Toyota Logo
Despite all its successes, throughout the history of the Toyota logo, the emblem has never generated quite the same level of popularity as the Ford and Chevrolet logos, though perhaps it is a bit unfair to compare the popularity of the Toyota logo to two competitors as steeped in tradition and national appeal as Ford and Chevy.
Though there might not be nearly as many shirts and hats displaying the Toyota logo, the design has still accomplished all of its intended purposes. Toyota managed to design a simple logo with a complex message. They also managed to design a logo that would be recognizable and appealing in all of the many countries they sell vehicles in.
Lastly, one great testament to the popularity of the Toyota logo and the importance the company places on it is the entire pages dedicated to the logo's design and history on Toyota's website. A visit to these pages leaves no doubt about the pride Toyota has for its logo and is another excellent example of the value a good logo design can have.

From discovery to recovery: an HIV timeline
Ever since HIV was identified as the cause of Aids, researchers, drugs, people and governments have been fighting back. Here's a look at 60 years of action on HIV and Aids.
Millennials living positively with HIV
HIV and AIDS remains the biggest conundrum in South Africa, but young people living with the virus have made it their mission to spread awareness and fight the existing stigma.
Fighting HIV by using preventive pills
South Africa's health department has HIV prevention programmes but young women are still vulnerable to infection and HIV organisations have called for an emphasis on other prevention measures.
Healthy body, yes. Healthy mind?
Promoting a healthy mind, as opposed to waiting for people to become unwell, is the way to prevent the scourge of mental illness that is still stigmatised today.
A safe haven for abused women
Some women feel they can't leave abusive relationships. But for those who can and do, a centre in Rustenburg now offers survivors counselling and a place to stay.
African leaders prefer overseas to local health care
Medical facilities at home are seemingly not good enough for people who head African countries. Many of them seek 'overseas' attention when they are ill.
What killed two toddlers at a Limpopo hospital?
The families of the two children who died at Dr CN Phatudi Hospital face a lengthy wait for answers from the provincial health department as they try to make sense of their childrens' sudden deaths.
Candid give-and-take with Dr Sex
In her new book Tlaleng Mofokeng, South Africa's sex-talk expert, deals directly with decriminalising sex workers, the National Health Insurance Bill and the importance of sexual pleasure.
Wife seeks justice years after husband dies following surgery
James Swart underwent surgery for a tumour he never had and died soon after. His family believe they were lied to about his condition and that the doctors were criminally negligent.
Survivors of gender-based violence fight to be heard
Gender-based violence is escalating as the social crisis deepens. While researchers call for a practical intervention for men, some activists want a special council that could become a powerful platform for survivors.
Mother who lost three children sees negligent doctor jailed
Buyiselwa Daweti blames gynaecologist Danie van der Walt for medical negligence after the miscarriage of her twins and her daughter's death in childbirth.
New ways to fight HIV
A major South African HIV vaccine study could provide vital new information in the search to find a cure for a disease affecting just under two million people a year.
Vuwani residents divided over elections
Amid the continued distress over the demarcation of the Limpopo town, many choose abstention in protest against the poor services and lack of jobs in the area.
How to relate to autism in a meaningful way
Professionals, facilities and knowledge are lacking when it comes to autism, resulting in children such as Sboniso Hlophe missing schooling for much of their formative years.
May Day: A tale of two rallies
Workers' Day events provided opportunities for election campaigning, as well as a chance for some to capitalise on the crowds and make some much-needed money.

New party aims for a socialist South Africa
Numsa's Socialist Revolutionary Workers' Party wants land, resources and wealth in the hands of the people. Could it fill the left-wing gap in South Africa's political spectrum?

A call to end human rights violations
More than 2 000 people marched to Durban City Hall on Human Rights Day in a bid to get the government in KwaZulu-Natal to respond to the transgressions taking place in the province.
The financial woes of mental health NGOs
The Life Esidimeni outrage triggered changes to operating licence requirements for mental health NGOs. But many, like Gordonia, lack the funding to comply.
Public healthcare fails the mentally ill
The number of psychiatrists in the public healthcare system is completely inadequate for the needs of the mentally ill, with professionals and patients suffering as a result.

GIANCARLO FALGUERA SILVA
I am a third culture kid, growing up in the US to parents who immigrated there from the Philippines before I was born. I have a naturally competitive spirit and have competed in different sports for as long as I can remember. I love learning about new cultures and traditions, especially through their cuisine.
An ambition to see the world through different lenses
Giancarlo has always been a person who vigorously pursues his passions. Whether it's competitive swimming (which saw him competing against some of the world's best as he represented the Philippines), photography, or study, he gives everything to whatever he's doing.
That was true even before he came to study at IE University. Giancarlo got his bachelor's degree in European Studies and International Relations in Manila, attending a Model United Nations and representing his university in competitive swimming while he was there. He worked in various customer-facing roles before IE University caught his eye through our Partner Programs.
Seeing that studying a Master in International Relations at IE University would allow him to live in Madrid, a city he already adored, he took a deeper look and liked what he saw. The diversity of the program is something that Giancarlo is particularly enthusiastic about, and he recalls noticing almost 30 nationalities represented among his future classmates at the welcoming ceremony, before the program had even begun. The different perspectives they offered during class discussions is something he values very highly.
Another element of the classroom experience at IE University that has both surprised and pleased Giancarlo is just how much the professors encourage open discussion. This positive and supportive attitude has been reflected in Giancarlo's IE University experience as a whole, where collaborating with peers has shown him the value of playing to people's strengths when it comes to group work.
To say that Giancarlo is a keen photographer would be an understatement—and he's been delighted with the support he's received from IE University in pursuing his passion. From his first experiences behind the camera at high school, he has since become so accomplished at the art that he is now a freelance professional photographer. During his time at IE University, he has put this skill to very good use. Realizing that all his fellow master's students at IE School of Global & Public Affairs would benefit from an up-to-date, professionally shot image for their professional profiles, he sought the assistance of his program management team in organizing a shoot for them.
In Giancarlo's view, the assistance he received in sourcing a venue and scheduling the shoot to everyone's convenience, as well as the voluntary help from his classmates, typifies the IE University experience. Giancarlo praises the program management team, without whom he suggests the shoot would not have been possible.
Looking beyond his studies, Giancarlo has his eye on a career in international security. He can see himself working in a governmental or intergovernmental role, a private-sector organization, or a think tank. This is a sector that will always need talented people, he says, due to the complexities inherent in finding ways for different cultures to collaborate. Working in groups with such a diverse set of classmates has really helped prepare him for exactly that type of challenge in future.
Giancarlo also speaks highly of the opportunities he has had to work with our partners like the UN and NATO, as part of the Capstone Project for his program. By working with world-renowned institutions that have major global influence, Giancarlo has been able to put what he's learned to practical use. These types of partnerships, he says, show just how proactively IE Talent & Careers reaches out to students to help them with their professional ambitions.
Asked where he sees himself in five to ten years' time, Giancarlo says that he wants to be using what he has learned to work collaboratively with diverse groups, seeking to overcome the complex international security issues that affect us all.
Looking back on his studies, Giancarlo doesn't hesitate in offering advice to anybody considering following in his footsteps and taking our Master in International Relations. "The IE experience as a whole is truly whatever you make of it," he asserts. "The professors will always offer additional help, clarification or feedback on your assignments—but more importantly, IE offers so many avenues to grow your network if you put the effort into it."
While Giancarlo's IE University experience has been defined by opportunities both inside and outside of the classroom, he believes it is the connections and friendships made that will last well beyond his graduation. He urges everyone who steps onto the IE University campuses to make an effort to meet new people there, getting the most out of what the IE Community has to offer. We couldn't agree more!

"Best Practices in Applying to Graduate School"


An Oshkosh Democrat is emerging as a potential replacement for Assembly Minority Leader Peter Barca, who announced he was stepping down Thursday.
MADISON - Oshkosh Democrat Gordon Hintz said Friday he would run to replace Assembly Minority Leader Peter Barca, who announced this week he was stepping down.
In an interview, Hintz said that Democrats have to communicate to voters from rural regions to Milwaukee how his party can make their lives better.
"I'm a believer in a broad appeal," said Hintz, a member of the Legislature's Joint Finance Committee. "I think Democrats can explain what they're doing to provide opportunity."
Hintz would be the first new leader for Assembly Democrats during the tenure of Gov. Scott Walker, a period in which Republicans have racked up victory after victory on the legislative floor and at the ballot box.
Several other Democrats, including Rep. Chris Taylor of Madison, have been mentioned as potential candidates but so far none has committed to a run.
Taylor said Friday that she would not run for the post, saying she was "excited to support Gordon Hintz." Rep. Evan Goyke (D-Milwaukee), who unsuccessfully challenged Barca in 2014, said Friday he was also backing Hintz.
Barca, a former congressman from Kenosha, announced Thursday he was leaving his leadership post after a lengthy private meeting of Assembly Democrats outside the state Capitol. Barca has been in the role for 6½ years — a challenging period for his party.
Those involved in and familiar with the discussions said fellow Democrats told Barca Thursday that they had become frustrated with him, with some showing a willingness to quickly vote on whether to keep him as their leader.
The challenge to Barca's leadership followed his decision last month to vote for a deal struck by Walker with Foxconn Technology Group, a Taiwanese company that has agreed to build an up to $10 billion plant near Barca's district. The flat-screen display plant could employ thousands in exchange for up to $2.85 billion in cash from Wisconsin taxpayers.
Most Democrats — including Hintz — oppose the package because of its price tag and because of provisions in the deal that would exempt the company from some environmental rules.
"This afternoon I made the very difficult decision to step down as leader of the Assembly following deliberate, thoughtful discussions," Barca said in a statement Thursday. "We ended our discussion this afternoon with a very constructive strategy session and are very focused on the work we must do to improve Gov. (Scott) Walker's short-sighted budget."
Many of Barca's colleagues were comfortable with his support for the Foxconn package but were bothered by how closely he had worked with Republican leaders on the issue, said one person familiar with Thursday's meeting. That person and others spoke on the condition they not be named because of the sensitivity of the meeting.
Walker tweaked Democrats in a tweet Friday that touted the up to 13,000 jobs that could come out of Foxconn's liquid display factory.
At the ballot box, Barca had little to no success in winning legislative seats in districts that were drawn by Republicans. In November, Republicans won a 64-35 seat majority in the Assembly, their largest in that house since 1957.
Barca had played a prominent role in leading Democrats in his house during the massive 2011 labor protests against Walker's legislation repealing most collective bargaining for most public employees. The Democratic leader marshaled a more than 61-hour continuous floor debate in an unsuccessful effort to kill the bill.
Toward the end of that debate, Hintz reacted to a vote by telling then GOP Rep. Michelle Litjens that she was "(expletive) dead," a statement that Litjens later said she took to be a political threat rather than a personal one. Hintz later apologized to Litjens, who is now engaged to Assembly Speaker Robin Vos (R-Rochester).
Only days before that February 2011 incident, Hintz had been cited by Appleton police in connection with an investigation of the Heavenly Touch Massage Parlor there for prostitution. Hintz pleaded no contest to the citation and apologized for the incident at the time, calling it a "bad decision in my personal life that was out of character for me."
Could there be an air guitar solo to celebrate a successful leadership bid?
"It is always there if needed," Hintz said by text message.


for the Gunslinger to follow.
and the Gunslinger got older.
as that of the sunken island that was Atlantis.
that he could not yet fully-understand.
is what he had always wished.
he had always been "The Gunslinger".

BANGUI, Central African Republic -- Thousands of Muslims climbed aboard trucks protected by heavily armed Chadian soldiers in a mass exodus Friday from the capital of Central African Republic. Their flight follows months of escalating attacks on anyone perceived as supporting a now-defunct Muslim rebel government blamed for scores of atrocities during its rule of this predominantly Christian country.
In The Hague, Netherlands, the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court announced a preliminary investigation into potential war crimes or crimes against humanity in Central African Republic, saying the crisis has "gone from bad to worse" since September.
Along the streets of Bangui, crowds of Christians gathered to cheer the convoy's departure for the neighboring country of Chad, which is mostly Muslim. It was an acrid farewell to their Muslim neighbors who had in some cases lived alongside Christians for generations here and have few ties to Chad.
The dangers for those who stayed behind were clear: One man who tumbled from the precariously overloaded trucks was brutally slain, witnesses said.
"He didn't even have the time to fall -- he landed into the hands of the angry mob who then lynched him at the scene," said Armando Yanguendji, a resident of the Gobongo district who witnessed the horror.
Another truck in the same neighborhood escaped attack from Christian militiamen only when Burundian peacekeepers fired into the air to disperse the crowd trying to assault the convoy, he said. Some trucks broke down even before they could leave Bangui on Friday and had to be abandoned. The passengers jumped aboard other trucks, facing constant jeering, threats and stone-throwing from the spectators.
"The Christians say the Muslims must go back where they came from -- that's why we are going home," said Osmani Benui as she fled Bangui. "We couldn't stay here because we had no protection."
They did have protection as they departed. Chadian special forces went along as well as Seleka rebels in cars in the convoy, armed with pistols and AK-47s.
The convoy of some 500 cars, trucks and motorcycles strained under the weight of people's belongings. Even as thousands fled, hundreds more sought refuge at a mosque in Bangui's predominantly Muslim PK5 neighborhood.
"It really is a horrific situation. All over Bangui, entire Muslim neighborhoods are being destroyed and emptied," said Peter Bouckaert, emergencies director for Human Rights Watch, who has gotten trapped Muslims to safety under the guard of peacekeepers.
"Their buildings are being destroyed and being taken apart, brick by brick, roof by roof, to wipe out any sign of their once existence in this country," he added.
The dangers are not limited to the capital.
The aid group Medecins Sans Frontieres, or Doctors Without Borders, said Friday that tens of thousands of Muslims already have fled to Chad and Cameroon, while entire communities remain trapped in parts of northwest Central African Republic. A Muslim community of more than 8,000 people in Bouar "remains effectively imprisoned, unable to flee the violence."
"We are concerned about the fate of these communities trapped in their villages, surrounded by anti-Balaka groups, and also about the fact that many Muslim families are being forced into exile to survive," said Martine Flokstra, MSF emergency coordinator.
In announcing the International Criminal Court's preliminary investigation, prosecutor Fatou Bensouda cited reports of "hundreds of killings, acts of rape and sexual slavery, destruction of property, pillaging, torture, forced displacement and recruitment and use of children in hostilities." She added that "in many incidents, victims appear to have been deliberately targeted on religious grounds."
The ICC is the world's permanent war crimes tribunal, established in 2002 to investigate and punish atrocities when member states are unwilling or unable to do so themselves. Central African Republic is a member.
Although most of Central African Republic's roughly 4.6 million citizens are Christian, there is a sizeable Muslim population in its north near the borders with Sudan and Chad.
Fighting in the country has worsened since last March, when an alliance of Muslim rebel groups from the north united to overthrow the president of a decade.
Although their grievances were political and economic -- not religious -- fighting has taken on an increasingly sectarian tone since then.

The rebels, known as Seleka, were aided by Chadian and Sudanese mercenaries. They quickly became despised by Christians in the capital after the fighters went on looting sprees, raping and killing civilians at random. An armed Christian movement known as the anti-Balaka, aided by loyalists of ousted President Francois Bozize, began retaliating several months later.
Christian fighters attempted to overthrow the Muslim rebel government in early December, sparking unprecedented bloodshed that left more than 1,000 people dead in a matter of days. An untold number have died in the weeks that followed, with most of the attacks in Bangui targeting Muslims.
The Muslim rebel leader who took power last March has stepped aside, and the country is currently being led by former Bangui Mayor Catherine Samba-Panza as interim president.
In recent weeks, angry mobs have set fire to mosques and have brutally killed and mutilated Muslims. On Wednesday, one Muslim suspected of having aided last year's rebellion was attacked for 15 minutes with knives, bricks and feet by army soldiers shortly after Samba-Panza had left the scene. Men in uniform then paraded his body through the streets before it was dismembered and set ablaze.
No one was detained in connection with the slaying, which took place in the presence of African regional peacekeepers.
"It is very unfortunate that that happened, that we were not able to quickly intervene and then save him, but things happened so quickly that we couldn't," said Eloi Yao, spokesman for the African mission known as MISCA.
Babacar Gaye, the U.N. special representative to Central African Republic, called for an investigation and said those responsible "should be made an example of."
Wednesday's attack came minutes after the interim president told the hundreds of soldiers standing in formation that she was proud of them and called on their support to bring order to their anarchic country.

This is completely bewildered and awful news for me, seriously. My friend told me this morning that our pointer can be checked through the website. She urged me to change my password before someone else checks my result. My pointer for this semester is such a damn number, terrible and bloody low. How it is possible for me to continue ace-ing in my exams if it is acting in such ways? Especially for my UAK paper, I scored the lowest grade which ruined my pointer totally. And I guessed, there must be a big mistake, because I sit this paper three days earlier than the actual date, and it was in the late evening. Arrrghh… this semester has been hell.
I need to recheck it back by asking the Unit Peperiksaan and Penilaian. Back to me, am I studied wise? Absolutely, no. Frankly, I studied moderately, because I focused more on IPG activities. sometimes, i hate the bad side of me. :( But, even the hardest paper I sit last year was not that bad. And I am pretty sure; most of my friends will laugh at me.
Oh wait guys, I suppose blame myself too. My bad. My fault. FRUSTRATED, of course.
Bill Gates deserves it. So, me too.

Kendall Mill Historic District is a historic mill complex, mill village, and national historic district located at Camden, Kershaw County, South Carolina. The district encompasses 119 contributing buildings, 1 contributing sites, and 1 contributing structure in Camden.  The district is centered on the Wateree Plant and associated structures that date from 1899 to 1923.  The mill village to the south and southeast of the plant was built between 1900 and ca. 1925 and is a virtually intact reminder of the importance of the textile industry to South Carolina. The mill faces Kendall Park, a ten-acre landscaped park. On the eastern border of the park are the mill supervisors' houses, built between 1900 and ca. 1925. The operatives house consist of one-story, 1 1/2-story, and a few two-story frame houses which date from 1900 to 1923. The district also includes Kendall Lake, north of the mill. The Dekalb Cotton Mill was organized in 1899. The Dekalb Mill building, designed by W.B. Smith Whaley in the Romanesque Revival style, was considered a model of textile architecture. The original plant building is a four-story rectangular brick building with a back stair tower and an imposing six-story front stair tower. The west addition to the plant, which is in keeping, architecturally, with the older buildings, was constructed in 1964. It is located in the City of Camden Historic District.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

" I bought this set just the day it was released. I unboxed it( it has 5 bags, a small sheet of stickers, and a fairly thick manual), and built it. The build was really fun, having about an equal amount of technic and normal building. When it was finished, I just couldn't stop admiring how good it looked. The only bad thing is that the AT AP has three seats, and only has two clone troopers. "

" First off, I`m going to start by saying this is a great set. It has plenty of play ability for kids and plenty of display ability for collectors. It has four opening compartments, including a space for BB-8 and some luggage, a storage area for a gun and a couple of thermal detonators, the cockpit, and a space that has some storage for something small, but the instructions don`t say anything about what to do with it. For me the main play feature is the one where you can turn the engine in the back, and it will also turn the stud gun on the side. There are also two spring-loaded shooters hidden under the front that can be activated by a little wheel on he side. The minifigs are also awesome. BB-8 is just like all the other ones we`ve gotten before. Finn has a new leg print and I think a new torso print. Also he has new expressions on his face, which is double-sided. Rose is also really cool, she has great print, expressions, and hair piece.
Overall, this is a great set that I recommend to kids and collectors alike. I hope this review has been helpful. "

For the past week, I've been carefully going over my new purchase in my spare time. I started with simple things. I filled the fuel tank on the way home. I replaced the FILTHY air filter. The inside of the coolant tank was cruddy, so I removed and cleaned it, rendering the fluid level visible once again. I also changed the engine oil and greased the front end components. Monday, the extended holiday weekend was finally over, allowing me to transfer the title and register the truck for road use.
High on the priority list is tires and an alignment. Upon closer inspection, it became clear that trying to get away with just two tires for now would be a bad idea. So I took it in and bought four. During mounting/balancing, I asked the shop to give the truck a basic inspection while it was on the lift. I have a laundry list of things to do to it, but it seemed wise to put another set of eyes on it to see if there's anything I missed.
The front end was found to be loose in several spots. Before an alignment can be performed, new tie-rods and pitman/idler arms must be installed. That's nearly $300 for quality parts, but that's not all they found. The fuel tank has a slow leak, periodically dripping that precious petrol. Now I'll be damned if I'm putting an old pump in a new tank, so there goes another couple hundred bucks in parts alone. Good thing I'll be doing the wrenching myself to avoid labor costs.
So it's looking more and more like $700 may have been a fair price after all, rather than a fantastic bargain. I've already spent more on fixing up the truck than I did on the purchase price, and I'm not done yet.
So what do you do when a great deal becomes merely a good deal... or worse? You can give up on it, and put it back on Craigslist until it becomes someone else's problem. Or, you can see it through.
When you intend to keep a vehicle for a long time, you can ease the pain of expensive parts by reminding yourself how much trouble-free mileage you stand to get out of them. Buying tires? Compare the up-front cost to the tire's treadlife expectancy. Buying a battery? Pay attention to the number of months it claims to last.
