HEAD MOLD: "Jess"
PERSONAL FUN FACT: It took me a long time to realize that my Ivy doll had the same head mold as Jess. I personally think that this is the cutest, most beautiful Asian head mold that American Girl has ever produced. That being said, it is the only one in my collection right now...so I guess I'm not a fair judge. Jess and Ivy may share the same head mold, but I feel that both of these dolls have their own unique personalities. Ivy looks more cute and cuddly, whereas Jess is a striking beauty, who could be a model! I never noticed until I got my Jess doll, but this head mold actually has pointed indents at the corners of the eyes. Since my Ivy doll has paint in these indents, I never realized that the mold itself was special in that location. My Jess doll is cut a lot more evenly than my Ivy--who has pretty wonky eyes (which I absolutely adore). I think her soft, full eyebrows compliment her warm brown eyes. I do prefer Ivy's decal brown eyes over Jess's standard brown eyes. I really appreciate how American Girl transformed this head mold to suit different characters uniquely! It is amazing what different colored eyes, different wigs, and a little paint can do for a head mold.

Hong Kong Transport
Motorbikes | Motorcycles | Scooters | Tricycles - All Brands
There are approximately 75,000 - 82,000 (ish) Licenced | Registered motorcycles, scooters and tricycles in Hong Kong, it never really changes much and dealers keep large stocks of popular models for immediate delivery due to heavy demand - The Transport Department classifies motorcycles and scooters as the same type of vehicle, personally I prefer the term motorbikes rather than motorcycles .....and yes, Hong Konger‛s love fast bikes.
There is nothing at all unusual about the popularity of motorcycles in Hong Kong, big powerful bikes are a lot more popular than the entry level 125cc and 250cc bikes simply because here you can get a motorcycle from all the major brands that do 190mph + and 0 - 60mph in 2.8 seconds, fast enough to outperform most supercars and even hypercars in Hong Kong and at a fraction of the price of a typical supercar, it is an easy sale. Scooters, well they are popular for food delivery companies!
There are over 125 brands of motorcycles, scooters and trikes for sale in Hong Kong
Motorbikes - the top 7 selling brands of motorbikes as far as I can determine in Hong Kong are as follows
Honda ✚ Yamaha ✚ Suzuki ✚ Kawasaki ✚ Ducati ✚ Harley Davidson ✚ BMW
Scooters - the top 5 selling brands of scooters as far as I can determine in Hong Kong are as follows :
Kymco ✚ Sym ✚ Piaggio ✚ San Yang ✚ Vespa
Tricycles - the top 5 selling brands of tricycles | trikes as far as I can determine in Hong Kong are as follows :
Adiva ✚ BRP ✚ Gilera ✚ Paiggio ✚ Harley Davidson
All the numerous biker clubs are out in force on Sunday‛s when weather permits! It is not unusual to see 50+ big bikes in formation on country roads on Hong Kong Island and the New Territories

On July 16, 1945, one week after the establishment of White Sands Missile Range (WSMR), the world’s first atomic bomb was detonated in the north-central portion of the missile range, approximately 60 miles north of White Sands National Park.
For the Project Trinity test, the bomb was placed atop a 100-foot steel tower that was designated Zero. Ground Zero was at the foot of the tower. Equipment, instruments, and observation points were established at varying distances from Ground Zero. The wooden observation shelters were protected by concrete and earthen barricades, and the nearest observation point was 5.7 miles from Ground Zero.
At 5:30 a.m. on July 16, the nuclear device, known as “Gadget,” was successfully detonated. To most observers—watching through dark glasses—the brilliance of the light from the explosion overshadowed the shock wave and sound that arrived some seconds later. A multi-colored cloud surged 38,000 feet into the air within seven minutes. Where the tower had been was a crater one-half mile across and eight feet deep. Sand in the crater was fused by the intense heat into a glass-like solid, the color of green jade. This material was given the name trinitite. The explosion point was named Trinity Site.
Although no information on the test was released until after the atomic bomb had been used as a weapon, the flash of light and shock wave made a vivid impression over an area with a radius of at least 160 miles.
The world’s second atomic bomb, codenamed “Little Boy,” was exploded over Hiroshima, Japan, on August 6, 1945. Three days later, a third bomb codenamed “Fat Man,” devastated the city of Nagasaki. The Hiroshima bombing was the second artificial nuclear explosion in history, after the Trinity test, and the first uranium-based detonation. The bombs exploded at Trinity Site and Nagasaki had plutonium cores. A “Fat Man” bomb casing is on display in front of the WSMR visitor center.
After the explosion, Trinity Site was encircled with more than a mile of chain-link fencing, and signs were posted to warn people of radioactivity. The site was closed to both WSMR personnel and the general public. By 1953, much of the radioactivity had subsided, and the first Trinity Site open house was held in September of that year.
In 1965, Army officials erected a monument on Ground Zero. In 1975, the National Park Service designated Trinity Site as a National Historic Landmark. The landmark includes base camp, where the scientists and support group lived; the McDonald ranch house, where the plutonium core was assembled; as well as Ground Zero.
Today, visits to the site are sponsored by WSMR in April and October. The rest of the year the site is closed to the public because it lies within the impact zone for missiles fired into the northern part of WSMR.

Fort Buchanan, PR- Approximately 60 soldiers assigned to the 393rd Combat Sustaintment Support Battalion (CSSB), US Army Reserve-Puerto Rico, arrived to Puerto Rico from Afghanistan, 12 April, after being mobilized close to a year.
“We are deeply proud of each one of you. I realize that your mission was not easy. It was a high visibility mission and a critical one, and you executed it flawlessly”, said Brig. Gen. Fernando Fernandez, Senior Army Reserve officer in the Caribbean.
The troops conducted logistic operations and coordination of supplies and sustaintment at Camp Leatherneck, the largest Marine base in Afghanistan. They also provided critical support to the Southwest and West regional commands.
The soldiers supervised over 260 tactical convoys, traveling approximately 1 million miles over some of the most dangerous zones in a Afghanistan.
As part of their mission, the members of the largest US Army command in the Caribbean transported over 38,000 tons of sustainment, 760,000 gallons of fuel and retrograding more than 4,800 pieces of equipment during their tenure.
“The numbers speak volumes for the soldiers of ‘Logistical Task Force Taino,’” said Lt. Col. Louis Feliciano, commander of the 393rd CSSB.
Sgt. Ramon Russe, a Morovis, PR native, was one of the soldiers who returned home.
“I am extremely happy to be back in Puerto Rico. I am ready to see my family and my children”, said the Chemical Operations Specialist, who has four children.
A group of energized family members gathered at the Luis Muñoz Marin Airport in Carolina, PR to receive the troops.
The 393rd CSSB is the second US Army Reserve-Puerto Rico unit that has returned from Afghanistan in 2013.
The Army Reserve-Puerto Rico has mobilized over 5,000 soldiers since the year 2001.

IMPORTANT NOTES: This outfit is a repackaged version of Julie's Dance Set, which was a 2014 special edition. In 2015, American Girl started to sell the accessories and the outfit separately. The separate accessory set came with a disco ball, a ticket, and a poster, and was known as Julie's Disco Accessories
PERSONAL FUN FACT: I wanted this outfit the moment I learned of its existence! But originally, this dress was marketed as a special edition outfit, so it was very expensive. Having just gotten really back into American Girls when this was new, I was not really comfortable spending so much money on it. I remember marveling at this on display at the American Girl Store, but having to remind myself that I couldn't buy it. I was so grateful when Mattel brought the 2014 special edition outfits back the next year. My guess is that they had loads of overstock, so they were just trying to sell what they had left over. Fortunately, the prices dropped, because the accessories were sold separately instead of with the outfits. I'm really glad that this dress was marked down and sold without the disco ball because it meant that my Julie doll could own it! I actually got this on sale on Cyber Monday 2015--American Girl marked all full priced items down by 20%!!! Even though this outfit is really simple, its quality is very impressive. I think it makes an awesome statement piece on display. I especially love how beautiful my beloved Julie doll looks in it!

57e écluse sur le Canal à franchir par les navigants depuis son extrèmité occidentale à Toulouse.
59e écluse à l'origine sur le Canal avant les années 70 (60e si l'on compte l'écluse Notre Dame à Beziers sur l'ancien tracé).
58e écluse si l'on ne compte pas l'écluse de Garonne, la ou a été posée la première pierre du Canal du Midi, guère usitée (mais qui a conservé ses portes éclusières) et commune aux canaux du Midi, Latéral à la Garonne et de Brienne).
57e écluse si on ôte aussi du décompte l'ancienne écluse Matabiau à Toulouse, qui a perdu sa fonction éclusière lors de la modernisation du Canal dans les années 70.
Ecluse à bajoyers droits.
Contrairement à l'écluse Notre Dame, l'entrée sur le canal est navigable de ce côté.

HEAD MOLD: "Josefina"; pierced ears
PERSONAL FUN FACT: Elizabeth Cole is the missing piece to my childhood, and of my American Girl collection. Elizabeth and I were always "meant to be," and it was only a matter of when, not if, she'd become part of my doll family. Since 2005, I knew that I wanted an Elizabeth doll, but I had no way of knowing just how special she would eventually become. Elizabeth first debuted in 2005, when Felicity's collection made it's return to the catalogues. But it would be ten more years from that time before Elizabeth finally took her rightful place in my collection.
Elizabeth Cole has always been the most appealing best friend American Girl doll ever made, in my opinion. Both my sister and I agree, even though Colleen's favorite doll is Molly. Elizabeth's character is such an integral part of Felicity's stories. Colleen and I always loved Lissie's books growing up, and as adults, we consider them to probably be the best written historical American Girl books. Elizabeth's importance in Lissie's books made her automatically irresistible, and a vital part to our doll collection. Colleen and I have always agreed in complete unison that we wanted a Bitsy doll. Even during the doll hiatus, even during our early days as reclaimed doll collectors, we both knew that we could never deny an Elizabeth doll. No matter how many times we said we were done adding any more dolls to our AG collection, Elizabeth was always the exception. Ironically though, we never actually sat down and seriously discussed getting her. Perhaps it is because Bitsy retired and was only available through eBay, or perhaps it is because we got massively side tracked. Either way, the important thing is that eventually Elizabeth did materialize, and she is finally where she belongs--sitting with my childhood Felicity doll on display. In the end, Bitsy was an impulsive purchase, but a great decision. Within days of ordering Emily for Colleen, we both were on an unspoken quest for Bitsy. It was the same day I ordered my new Beforever Addy from American Girl. Later that night, we spent an hour or so scrolling through pages of Elizabeth listings on eBay, until we found the perfect one. The moment we saw our doll, we knew she was the right girl, so without any hesitation Colleen hit the "Buy It Now" button, and Elizabeth was on her way to her new home, while my Felicity awaited her impending arrival. In that moment, we needed an Elizabeth doll, because both Colleen and I knew she was the last doll missing in our collection, and our family wouldn't feel complete without her.
The time frame in which we got Elizabeth was strangely perfect, but in no way was it planned to be so. Christmas 2015 marks the ten year anniversary of Elizabeth's introduction to the catalogue, and it marks Marisol's tenth birthday--the last doll I got as a child. It is actually because of Mari, that I did not choose Elizabeth as my Christmas gift that year. I know without a doubt, if Marisol had not been the Girl of the Year at the time, that holiday would have been all about Felicity and Elizabeth. I would have certainly wanted Bitsy that year, and I know I would have ordered hoards of clothes for the pair--after all, I hadn't had many opportunities to shower my Felicity doll with items from her collection since she was partially retired in 2002. I spent hours staring at the Felicity and Elizabeth spread in the catalogues that year. But in the end, I had to get Marisol since she was limited edition, and I wouldn't have another opportunity to get her. I have no regrets though, because at the end of the day, I think this year was the right time for Elizabeth to join our family.
Bitsy represents a series of important events to me. First of all, her introduction to the American Girl collection was a very huge deal to my fourteen year old self. I was elated that Felicity had come back to the catalogues, since she had been pulled from them in 2002. Plus, Elizabeth had so many more clothes than Nellie, the first best friend doll, and her collection intertwined perfectly with Lissie's. Until recently, I had never actually watched any of the American Girl movies with the exception of Felicity's. It was an event at my house--I remember I made sure to have control of the television that night so Felicity and I could watch her on screen debut. For once, I was glad that American Girl had gone with the gimmicky route, because it meant that Felicity was back, and perhaps this new attention cast on her would prevent her from going away again. In a way though, these memories of Felicity's relaunch are somewhat bittersweet. They remind me of what was, but also what could have been. That was the last year I actually acknowledged my passion for dolls. After that, I packed all my dolls up for several years and pretended I was too "mature" for them. If I had stayed true to myself during my teenage years, I could have actually enjoyed new dolls like Elizabeth, Julie, Ivy, etc. But at the end of the day, the only mistake worth regretting is one you cannot learn from. I can honestly say, I wouldn't change a thing, because it's made me who I am today, and it's shaped my doll collection.
Having Elizabeth is like correcting a mistake I made years ago. If I had stayed true to myself, I know that I would have gotten an Elizabeth doll much sooner. I feel like she represents a change in me--that in some way, my life and doll collection has come full circle. After all this time, I finally got the Bitsy doll I always wanted, and exactly ten years from the Christmas I would have originally gotten her for. For the 2015 holiday, my sister and I added three dolls to our American Girl collection--Elizabeth, Emily, and Aduke (my Beforever Addy). This is the first time since 2004 we have gotten so many dolls for one holiday. This occasion is also on the cusp of our five year anniversary since we reclaimed our doll hobby back in 2011. I still can't believe that it has been five years since I first asked Dad if I could buy Satiny Shimmer Mulan on eBay...and I can't believe how far we've come, and how much life has changed. I can give Elizabeth the life I always wanted to give her when I was younger, but wasn't capable of. I truly appreciate every doll in my collection, for every flaw and quirk he or she has. I feel free from all the restrictions and criticisms I used to bestow upon myself and my dolls. Most importantly, the hiatus from dolls and our resurgence back into them is what has most defined me as a person and a collector. Sometimes it's not about getting it right the first time--sometimes it's about doing the wrong thing and then fixing it, and appreciating what you have even more. To me, Elizabeth Cole is a true testament to that--I may not have gotten her ten years ago, but ten years later, she means the world to me, and she holds a significance that she never would have had things played out another way.
