The plush VIP Disneyland Railroad car known as the Lilly Belle, ventured outside the theme park for the first time Friday.
The car had another first when it was coupled with the Combine Car – the car behind the steam locomotive Walt Disney maneuvered on Disneyland's opening day in 1955.
Both cars, along with a hand car that used to sit in front of the Main Street, U.S.A. Railroad Station will be on display at the Fullerton Railroad Days for visitors to have a chance to explore.
The Combine Car usually sits at the Carolwood Barn inside the Los Angeles Live Steamers' Club grounds in Griffith Park. The barn was Disney's at his home in Holmby Hills, where he used to store his scale steam locomotives.
See how they moved the railroad cars by watching this video:
Also on display will be a boiler that used to be part of one of the Disneyland Railroad's steam locomotives. When it was removed, the engineers opened it up as an educational piece to explain how steam engines work.
The Lilly Belle was named after Disney's wife, Lillian. It is usually used for VIPs and other special park guests. The Lilly Belle still circles Disneyland periodically peopled with VIPs.

This hotel is at the edge of Nice Vielle Ville and has some charm. The proprietor is very friendly and hospitable. The room we had was very small for the relatively high price of 160 Euros and the walls are fairly thin so we heard bathroom related noise from the adjacent room. We would not stay there again.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Originating from part of an 18th century convent, Hotel Villa La Tour offers the charm of Southern France in an exclusive location. In the heart of the old part of Nice, near the colourful flower market, the port, museums, opera, bistros and shops. Only 10 minutes' walk to the beach. 17 individually furnished rooms offering modern facilities: shower, WC, hair dryer, telephone with PC attachment, air condition, free wifi connection satellite TV and a personal safe; some with a small balcony. ... more less
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Booking.com, Hotels.com, Orbitz, Expedia, Priceline, Tingo, Venere and HotelsClick so you can book your Hotel Villa La Tour reservations with confidence. We help millions of travellers each month to find the perfect hotel for both holiday and business trips, always with the best discounts and special offers.

A two-day pass aboard the Hop On Hop Off Tour provides riders with accessible transit and the cranial expansion of local knowledge. Throughout the route, a narration crafted by expert locals will keep you up to speed on where you are, where you are going, and where to direct your photographic and human irises. Non-English-speaking guests or bilingually curious natives can tune in to multilingual headsets along the ride. In addition to directing rubberneckers, the local good-times gurus at Gray Line lead wide-eyed wonderers into cultural hotbeds and fashionable storefronts. Riders who want to simply sink into the sun-soaked sand can browse the beach buffet out their window, hopping off when the bus reaches a towel-worthy strip.
Palm Beach Segway Tours' experienced and witty guides lead motorized conga lines through Palm Beach and the historic downtown of West Palm Beach. Wind cascades over helmeted noggins as mansions, yachts, and museums scroll by, set against a tropical backdrop of beaches and sea creatures. Intrepid tourists may also rent 49 c.c. retro gas scooters, the same vessels that Italian explorers piloted when they discovered America in 1958.
Once attendees master segway skills during a 20- to 30-minute orientation session, the expert guides at The Electric Experience whisk them away on a one- or two-hour trek through Delray Beach. Tours whizz down serene paths and quiet neighborhood streets in between stops at public beaches and the Sandoway House, where guests can take turns feeding a shark. As guides expound on Delray Beach's history, tours amble into Veterans Park, swing by manatees luxuriating in their natural habitats, and weave their way among the marina district's striking architecture. Afterward, The Electric Experience can equip visitors with sun-shielding gear for the beach, electric bikes for unguided rides, or folding bicycles that patrons can refold into origami swans to ride on ocean expeditions.
On the sidewalk outside the Wolfsonian's sprawling white walls, six people crane their necks to take in the building's ornate golden detailing as their guide chats animatedly about Miami's penchant for art deco architecture. The balmy breeze that's familiar to the city follows the group as they wend along Lincoln Road, propelling them into an area restaurant for a relaxed meal whipped up by some of the city's finest chefs. This tour of South Beach, part of a trio of Miami art, architecture, and culinary tours, enables guests to experience the city's bountiful cultural offerings through the anecdotes and historical tidbits poetry-slammed by a knowledgeable guide.
For the past three decades, the Davis Tours fleet of buses and motorcoaches have ferried tour groups to scenic locales, from the island landscapes of Key West to the killer-whale tank of the Miami Seaquarium. Their staff can plan entire custom trips, from transportation to meals, or they can simply furnish groups with a bus. The prepackaged tours, meanwhile, whisk groups through the Florida Everglades in an airboat or off to a Brazilian dinner theater show with unlimited sangria.
Groups of tourists walk past the current dwelling places of some of the area's notable residents, such as Addison Cairns Mizner, Paul Ilyinsky, and Henry Morrison Flagler. Unlike the case with traditional celebrity-sighting tours, however, all of these men died decades ago. Their spooky hauntings frame the path of Ghosts of Palm Beach's walking tours, during which knowledgeable guides share local folklore and paranormal encounters. Stops can include everything from Palm Beach Town Hall to high-fashion shops such as Gucci, Chanel, and Saks Fifth Avenue, where the ghosts still try to buy handbags for a dollar and two bits.

Your Turn: You Come Up with Transportation Funding
Fairfax County is asking residents to weigh in with a survey.
Fairfax County faces an estimated $3 billion gap in transportation funding over the next decade, and officials are now seeking ways to raise funds.
From now until fiscal year 2021, the county has $8.1 billion in needs but anticipates only $5.1 billion in revenues, Fairfax County Department of Transportation Director Tom Biesiadny said. Funding from the state or federal governments is unlikely to come through.
Fairfax County is asking residents to complete a survey so officials can learn how to fund these transportation improvements.
There are 20 options to fund transportation improvements, including the following:
- Income Tax
- Sales Tax
- Meals Tax
- Gas Tax (cents per gallon or a percentage of sales price)
- Real Estate Tax
- Hotel Tax
- Regional Vehicle Registration Fee
- Initial Registration Fee on New and Newly Located Vehicles
- Real Estate Transfer Tax
- Vehicle Repair Sales Tax on Labor
- Safety Inspection Fee
- Personal Property Tax
- Vehicle Miles Traveled Fee
- Commercial Parking Fee
- Developer Contributions
- Tolls
- Sales Tax on Services
- Increased Commercial and Industrial Tax Rate
- Make fewer transportation improvements rather than adding new sources of revenue
Residents have until 4:30 p.m. Oct. 12 to complete the survey. To take the survey, click here.
Patch wants to know: How would you fund transportation improvements in the county? Tell us in the comments section below.
Ed Hart
6:51 am on Thursday, September 27, 2012
Done. That was easy. Allen really messed up the whole state transportation budget. He should simply have adjusted the car property tax rates downward across the board. Instead he chose to make it a partisan campaign issue and convinced his voters that it wasn't needed. Transportation funding should be a statewide balancing act, not local. The car tax was the fairest way to maintain revenues for everyone.
Kathy Keith
7:56 am on Thursday, September 27, 2012
Ed, I'm confused. Wasn't the "car tax" Gilmore's issue. I don't remember Allen running on it--I do remember Gilmore making it a campagin issue.
Ed Hart
9:38 am on Friday, September 28, 2012
Yes, thank you. Silly me. but they do seem interchangeable in retrospect..
Glenn Baker
9:28 am on Thursday, September 27, 2012
I am curious about the changes to the car tax relief this year, as I somehow have a car that is one year older with sign more miles on it and I paid $1065 in car tax this year versus $1045 last year. How can it have gone UP $20 when the car is a year older?!?!? And looking at the possible funding fees and taxes what the heck is a "Vehicle Traveled Miles fee" Now I am going to be taxed if I actually drive my car?
My suggestion would be for developers to be required to make improvements to the local roads and infrastructure in areas they build in as new communities or office/retail sites, and also contribute additional funds (A small percentage say 1%) toward overall road and traffic and infrastructure projects around the county. The reason I say keep the fee small is that they will undoubtably pass that cost on to their clients who buy the new houses/buildings as most taxes levied on businesses end up.
Elizabeth Conway
2:48 pm on Thursday, September 27, 2012
Our car taxes were more this year also. I think some of the information with the bill said the amount of relief was reduced this year.
Beth Lawton
2:51 pm on Thursday, September 27, 2012
Patch has an article coming out this weekend about the car tax: Essentially, with the economy being down, more people are looking at used cars instead of new cars. Because the demand is high for used cars and supply is dropping, some used cars are actually becoming MORE valuable instead of depreciating.
9:33 pm on Thursday, September 27, 2012
Since 1988, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors have had the authority from the Virginia Assembly to levy a Transportation Impact Fee that would require developers to make improvements to local roads as stated above. The Transportation Impact Fee would be levied even in so-called "by-right" scenerios so transportation infrastructure is built before the opening of a new store (e.g., the Wal-mart at Kings Crossing or the several new stores that are being built now without any transportation infrastructure improvements).
Sally Spangler
9:43 am on Friday, September 28, 2012
That's an easy answer. The same one my house belongs to - the County decided it needed more money so instead of deletion because of age and use - your car is worth more simply because the County wants to gouge more money out of all of us.
My 43 year old home is worth more money than it ever has!!!!! Maybe we should be happy that we can all afford(?) to pay the County for their "forward thinking" hahaha! grimace.
John Boling
10:02 am on Thursday, September 27, 2012
Interesting in that the only options available raise money from new taxes or fees. We pay a hefty amount in taxes to the county. Maybe the county should align their responsibilities with the taxes available instead of using this gimmik to then suggest that the people support raising taxes on themselves. I can't wait for the moment they propose doing what was suggested in the survey and then say that this is what the citizens wanted.
Sally Spangler

Yes Mr. Bolling - instead of figuring out how to get more money for dreams wanted by the population - tell it like it is!!!! There is no money with which to make the dreams come true. If you want it badly enough to put in a $1,000 or so of your income or maybe even better, donate some of your invested dollars to pay for your dreams! And Fairfax County - We don't need to compete with Arlington County to become the most congested part of Northern Virginia. You also can take a pay cut and that money put into the dreams of the population. If I can live on less than $30K a year, so can you.

No to toll roads please. This especially hurts low-income families more who must travel to get to work. A hotel tax to get the many millions of visitors to our area to pay their share of road improvements is an idea I favor.

Keary - use side streets to get where you are going. I've been doing it for years. May take a bit longer, but I'm not paying luxury tax to use the multi-lane highways that are crowded most of the time these days.

Funding new roads? How about all the out of state cars that belong, obviously to people/families living in Fairfax County, but pay NO COUNTY TAXES! It used to be that every fall the police were parked in front of Gunston Elementary School and checked tags, driver's licenses, and driver IDs. NO Virginia information proving the car and driver were actually living in Fairfax County meant a fine and the driver needed to IMMEDIATELY to get his car registered in Virginia along with tags reflecting the car as domiciled in Fairfax County. The only way you got out of it was to be a short term visitor or a military person of short term residence. Maybe we should go back to that? Wonder how much more money would be raised with just that increase of cars properly tagged and licensed. The Driver would also be a registered home owner/renter in Virginia and Fairfax County - also a registered tax payer for County and State residence!

Quote: Interesting... Source? Quote: Yes, he offered to send 1000 doctors to New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. Quote: I agree, the Cubans would certainly benefit and it would also put billions of dollars into the American economy. Quote: I don't believe that, a $12,000,000,000,000 capitalist superpower hovering idly above a tiny communist island would easily engulf Cuba. Not to mention that Raul will cave in to America much easier than his brother. Quote: Don't believe the damn photo is you don't want to... I honestly don't give a shit. Quote: Free speech was the first goal of the United States after the Revolution; does that always happen as it was planned to? Quote: No, I think that trade is incompatible with communism. I don't doubt that Cuba will remain socialist after the embargo is lifted, it will just end up like China... A country with a capitalist economy, where the brutal dictator still remains in place. Quote: The United States is too close, too powerful, and too large Quote: Right click the photo and hit properties, the source will reveal itself... Quote: Oh please, Castro himself is one of the richest men in the world. He just gets pissed about Forbes calling him that every year and threatens to sue them. Quote: I agree, it is in the best interest of both countries to lift the embargo. They should both swallow their pride and extend the olive branch. (Cuba has done a better job at the than the United States) Quote: Potemkin is right, I grew up in a world were I was told to fear communism (I don't, I just don't like it). Most Americans still do hate communism, I just doubt the system will gain much strength because American see that what they are doing now is working. Quote: And they say that the United States lost that war... Who really lost that war? Quote: Yes, but its illegal and if the Feds find out that you went, they will take away your passport and fine you. I have been trying to get a general license to visit Cuba from the Office of Foreign Assets Control for years. banistansig2
Comintern-Revolution, how can you be so certain of this, that there are no homeless people in Cuba? Because Fidel has said so..?
Quote: Can you prove Fidel is "one of the richest men in the world"? What is your souce? What do you base this accusation on? Forbes? Forbes has admitted themselves that their numbers are more fiction than fact. Yes, he has a nice car. He has a giant wide screen TV. And he has benefits that Cubans cannot dream of. But if you want to claim that Fidel is a billionaire you should bring some documentation. Quote: Of course not… Dictators usually don't let out information that reflects negatively upon them, do they? Castro says that his net worth is zero, it obviously isn't. banistansig2
Quote: No, but that is not proof or documentation that points out that Fidel Castro is one of the richest men in the world. Quote: You are probably right. But that doesn't prove anything, except that Fidel is probably not telling the truth, which isn't a suprise anyways. Senator McCarthy wrote: Wow people still believe that. Forbes had zero evidence that Castro had money in a foreign bank. He lives an austere lifestlye. He has one foot in the grave, why would he need money? Forbes also encluded state-owned property. This is bullshit. Does President Bush own the Tennessee River Valley? No. Than why does state-owned property in Cuba part of Castro's direct wealth? Quote: People lose wars. Quote: I check Cuba's state run paper almost daily. I have not heard that. Can you provide a source in which Castro said he had a net worth of zero? "Don't hate on me bro" - Loz Quote: There is no documentation of the genocide in Darfur, does that mean that it is not so? Quote: Fidel wrote: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/05/ ... 2957.shtml banistansig2
Quote: Look. You can speculate, fine fine. But when you claim it is such and such, you should back that up. I think the most probable thing is that when Fidel dies and secrets about his life is revealed, Cubans will be shocked at the relatively luxury he had, and the people in the West will be suprised at how simple he lived. There has been no documentation that even hints at that he is a billionaire, so I guess that unless you can bring something up, anything substantial, the debate over Fidel's wealth is, well, pretty much over? Senator McCarthy wrote: News reports, government reports, reports, US gov. doc., ect. Quote: Yes I am aware of that quote. He said (from that article), "If they can prove that I have a bank account abroad..." He has no money in banks outside Cuba, that does not mean he has a total net worth of 0. "Don't hate on me bro" - Loz Quote: You trust the news and United States government unconditionally? Quote: Later in that same article: Quote: banistansig2
Quote: No, there is other evidence to support it. The media and the fact the gov. and rebel forces are constantly battling each other. Still, I am not the best to debate on the subject. Quote: That contradicts itself. He makes money but has no net worth? "Don't hate on me bro" - Loz Quote: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4521120.stm http://granmai.cubaweb.com/ingles/2006/septiembre/mier27/37estados-i.html The Alabama story is still visible in Granma, but the link is broken on the site. Quote: Heh, wrong. You clearly know veyr little about Raul aside from Time magazine articles. Quote: See, here's the difference: China was ruled by capitalists who really only cared about power and who had no interest in socialism from the start. Deng was prepared to cave in, because he opposed everything Mao did. Raul, Alarcon, Lage, and their ilk are far more ideologically motivated than the Chinese leaders were. Quote: I don't see how this means anything. Europe has gigantic trading power and economic strength. Quote: Heh, the writer who did that article said he considers his work "More art than science" and noted that he included all state property, assuming that because Fidel controls the state, he effectively owns all the property. Interestingly, they have been unable to complete Fidel's request to expose a single penny in an overseas bank account. Quote: Well, I'd say the Vietnamese people suffered the most, but America lost because it was politically neutered and has since become a nation of almost hilariously pussified people. Quote: They never fine you; just go via Canada. As long as you don't smuggle anything, they only threaten to fine. I'm gonna be going there myself, as well. "In a Revolution, one triumphs or dies." -Major Ernesto Guevara Quote: I guess we need an economics lesson today, if you spend all the money you make (let's say on food) you have no net worth. If I have no money saved and make one dollar a day (which I spend on food that same day) then my net worth is zero. Quote: My assertions are based on the man's actions, not what people tell me about him. Quote: The sense of nationalism in Cuba over the Revolution is largely based on the symbolism of the man himself (in my opinion). If Che rose from the dead and started leading that country, the socialist government would be stronger than ever. But just like China, the further the nation gets from its founding ideals, the more likely they are to cave in. Do you disagree? Quote: Then why is Cuba still locked in the Fifties? They are still driving cars that were made before the embargo... If a windshield breaks, they melt it to reform into the shape of the windshield using a mold. If the car needs new breaks, they press the asbestos in the mechanic's shop. Don't make it seem as if Cuba doesn't show any economic effects that resulted from the blockade. Quote: I'll have to PM you further on this, because I have wanted to visit Cuba for as long as I can remember... I've just never lived in a time without this stupid embargo. Like you said, it's a matter of pride. Cuba doesn't want to seem like they are pawns of the United States and the United States remains sour for the fact that Cuba never kissed the United States' ass like every other nation in the world (which I admire greatly). banistansig2
Trade sanctions will only exacerbate the economy for both Cuba and US. US cannot enjoy cheaper goods from Cuba. The implication for Cuban economy is obvious. It's an internecine relation. The best solution is to open their market and economy. Lift their economic embargo and trade sanctions and pour foreign direct investments to generate growth and wealth.
Quote: I am aware of the definition of net worth. I was assuming that Fidel got similar perks as the President of the US, one being they do not need to pay for there expenses. "Don't hate on me bro" - Loz Quote: I wish poeple would stop using automobiles as the symbol of Cuba's economic position. They are a small, poor country with few factories and a population under 15 million. Should they be expected to have a thriving car industry? "In a Revolution, one triumphs or dies." -Major Ernesto Guevara Quote: Yes, there are cars from the fifties, but there are also other cars. I've even seen sport cars in Cuba. Plenty of modern cars in Cuba, and the old U.S. cars seem to wither away. Cuba isn't locked in the fifties; Cuba has traces of the fifties. Quote: The Cuban "government" kissed the U.S. ass from about 1902 to 1959. The second most important man in Cuba (at certain times the most important) before the rebellion was the U.S. ambassador. Quote: The problem is that photographers are more interested in taking pictures of old cars on Cuban roads than pictures of ordinary ones that could be seen in other countries too. Homer: "You guys are commies? Then why am I seeing free markets?"
US trade sanctions on Cuba is just idiotic.
Also hypocritical of US politicians. I wonder how many of them smoke Cuban cigars. Man I love those. Your political compass

Hello everyone,
I recently posted this link to the photos my husband took during our trip to Ireland a couple of years ago in another thread, but Beith sagely recommended I post the link here as well because it's less likely to get lost in this forum than over there in DD.
I will happily field any questions regarding the photos, the places they were taken, or why they might have been taken, should anyone inquire!

DALLAS -- Move over, Larry Legend. Vinsanity still has a few special moments in him.
Vince Carter scored 26 points to pass Larry Bird on the NBA's career scoring list, and the Dallas Mavericks headed into the All-Star break with a 123-100 victory against the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday night.
Carter earned his nickname with circus dunks but can't quite rattle the rim like he used to. He's more dangerous these days from one of the places where Bird did plenty of damage: the 3-point line.
The 14-year veteran turned aside a Sacramento rally in the third quarter by going 5 of 7 from long range and scoring 17 of Dallas' last 21 points in the period. He ended the night with 21,796 career points for 29th on the all-time list, five ahead of Bird.
"There were open shots and I was shooting them to make them. I wasn't shooting to get attention," said Carter, who also became the 11th NBA player with at least 1,600 3-pointers. "I've talked to Larry before. He is a legend and one of the greatest to play the game."
Tyreke Evans scored 23 for the Kings, who lost their 18th straight regular season game in Dallas dating back almost 10 years.
The 3-pointer that pushed Carter past Bird came from a couple of feet behind the line with 2.9 seconds left in the third quarter and gave Dallas a 92-77 lead.
"It seems like every night, one of our guys is breaking a record," said Shawn Marion, one year shy of Carter in NBA experience. "It's cool what we've accomplished in this league. And we got a 'W.' All that stacked on top of each other is good."
Carter was 6 of 9 from beyond the arc, and the Mavericks made six straight from long range spanning the third and fourth quarters. Dallas finished 13 of 34 from 3-point range.
"It speaks to how well he's taken care of himself and longevity," said Dallas coach Rick Carlisle, who played with Bird in Boston. "You don't pass Larry Bird on the scoring list unless you've been in it a long time."
Dirk Nowitzki finished with 17 points, including a 3-pointer to put Dallas ahead 100-79 early in the fourth quarter. Nowitzki also had eight rebounds, six assists and three steals.
The Mavericks were up 18 early in the third quarter before Sacramento went on a 17-6 run to get within seven. Nine of the points came on free throws, and DeMarcus Cousins had a pair of baskets early in the run.
The Mavericks, who rallied from 17 down for an overtime win in Sacramento last month, didn't let the Kings do the same thing on their home court, thanks to Carter. He hit consecutive 3-pointers to end Sacramento's surge and start the Mavericks on a 19-11 run over the final five minutes of the third quarter.
The Kings, playing their fourth game in five nights before the All-Star break, didn't get closer than 17 in the fourth quarter. Cousins and Jason Thompson had 17 apiece, and James Johnson had 16 off the bench.
Cousins, who had a game-high 13 rebounds, stayed out of trouble for Sacramento after his previous two meetings with Dallas were marred by incidents. He was suspended for a game in December for hitting O.J. Mayo in the groin area during a game in Dallas, and was ejected for a flagrant foul after elbowing Carter last month in Sacramento. The foul helped the Mavericks clinch the overtime win.
Cousins, who insisted the contact was incidental both times, exchanged handshakes and hugs with Mayo and Carter after the game.
"He's going to figure it out," Sacramento coach Keith Smart said. "Believe me, whether it's going to here with the Kings or with anyone else. It's going to happen for the young man. Life is going to settle down and all his game is going to come together."
Neither team led by more than six before the Mavericks went on an 18-4 run for a 57-40 lead late in the first half. Darren Collison had eight points, including a three-point play when he took a feed from Marion for a layup after Marion jumped over diminutive Sacramento guard Isaiah Thomas to catch an entry pass from Nowitzki.
Collison finished with 18 points and nine of Dallas' 27 assists.
The Dallas spurt included the first points from Mayo, whose dunk on an assist from Collison ended an 0-for-4 shooting start for the Mavericks' leading scorer. Mayo finished with 10 points but was 0 of 7 from long range.
It was an efficient first half for the Mavericks, who had 15 assists and just two turnovers while shooting 49 per cent and taking a 59-44 lead.
NOTES: Mavericks C Chris Kaman missed his eighth straight game with a concussion sustained in practice Jan. 28. He has passed the league-mandated concussion test but is still experiencing headaches. ... Kings G Marcus Thornton missed the game with a bruised right hand. He sustained the injury against Memphis. ... Eight different Mavericks scored in a 30-point first quarter. Nowitzki and Marion led with six apiece. ... Isaiah Thomas, who is headed to Houston for the Rising Stars Challenge during All-Star weekend, extended his free throw streak to 35 over seven games. He was 3 of 3.

To be fair to the south coast, not that Im entirely sure it deserves it, it does get the odd summer swell - but they're so short lived and so unreliable that they're not worth travelling for. If you live next to the coast, you'd catch the odd wave, but as a travelling surfer you'd be very lucky to be there at the right moment.
God knows how the surf's school run in summer -- getting people paddling about on foam boards on flat water most of the time I'd imagine

On the morning of 26th June, Super Junior's Ryeowook left a mention of his appreciation to one of the related personnel through his personal Twitter account, saying "Thank you for the handsome choreography."
This particular personnel had published a tweet which read "The friends who worked on SuJu's new choreography together. Devin who worked with Michael Jackson.. Lyle who is touring with Usher.. Nick who is working with Justin Bieber.. Ne-yo's dancer Devin", along with a photo which authenticated his words.
The title song of Super Junior's 6th official album this time, 'Sexy, Free & Single', is a song with a trendy arrangement and compelling 'soulful house' genre, in addition to an easy and addictive chorus. It is a striking song whose lyrics deal with the success of the handsome men who are sexy, free, and single. Along with the glamorous performance that is unique to Super Junior, it is expected to captivate the eyes and ears of the global music fans once again. The appearance of the choreography team which had worked on similar splendid performances has also caught the attention of many.
The netizens who saw this left a wide variety of comments, including "A preview of the birth of a new choreography which is comparable to Mr. Simple and Sorry Sorry", "Even just by looking at the choreography team (it feels like) it's going to be a success", "Seems like it's an extremely star-studded choreography (team)", "Ah I'm really looking forward to it", "I'm anticipating for the 1st of July", and more.
On another hand, the songs from Super Junior's 6th official album 'Sexy, Free & Single' will first be released as digital tracks through various music sites on the 1st of July, while offline sales will begin on the 4th.

Jump Lock Rings
These bigger rings were a little easier to use than the small but still I wasted most trying to get them to lock properly. Great idea but not worth the money or stress!

Locking Jump Rings
These are very nice jump rings. They hold very well in comparison to regular jump rings and look really great. These are better than welding by a long shot! I've been using them for "boot candy" projects because they will hold up under pressure =}

jump locks
I am delighted with my order. One of the items is the Jump Lock Rings. I've recently learned of a fast way to make a twisted necklace using 11/o seed beads. Just take a yard of .5mm elastic and string beads and tie off in several colors twisted together and use the rings to fasten the ends together to form a choker. You can color-coordinate them to your outfit. My friends are wild about this easy idea.

IMO yeah, at least the PSP version is. But to be honest, you should be able to find it so darn cheap that it really won't do much harm to try it. Who knows maybe you like it.
On the other hand, the PS2 version runs better so I'd go with that one if you don't have the possibility to get the PC version. That is, assuming you still want to give it a chance.
