 Mega Man Toys
Modeled after the appearances of the characters in the cartoon shows, these toys are the Mega Man equivalent of the typical poseable action figures that kids play with.
The figures cover the most prominent characters of the X and original series, along with a few Robot Masters and such, and are pretty poseable.
Included cars are: Mega Man and Roll, Proto Man and Ice Man, Bass and Spring Man, Quick Man and Guts Man, and Shadow Man and Napalm Man. Each set also comes with a tiny packet of candy, for which I see no purpose whatsoever, as the cars are not in themselves candy dispensers.

 Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories PSP Preview - FUTURE GAMEZ
It all started with Grand Theft Auto III where we had to re-evaluate the boundaries of what interactive games were like.
To say that Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories is one of the most anticipated titles on PSP would be an understatement.
As well as cars Toni can drive cars, motorcycles, trucks, and boats to name a few.

 Harry Potter: Discussion Guide for Books I-IV
So the magical world of Harry Potter, a world of flying cars and dragons, unicorns and magic potions, invisibility cloaks and evil powers, becomes real as readers discover truths about bravery, loyalty, choice, and the power of love.
Harry learns that his parents did not die in a car crash but were killed by Voldemort, the Lord of Darkness, and that he's famous in the world of wizardry.
Harry could be compared to King Arthur—both are orphaned boys who are raised by foster parents, and each is unaware of his true background but slowly begins to understand it.

 The Johnny Bacardi Show
Here's another contender for that list; Milligan, unconcerned with canon or continuity except (and loosely at that) with his own stint writing X-Statix, is giving us one of the freshest and most fun stories to come from Marvel in a good while now, and the Derington/Allred team are providing imaginative visuals.
We get the lead character (for once) showing why she's supposed to be as good at her job as she is, and having some great interaction with a character I liked before he got folded into the JSA book, Dr. Mid-Nite, both in and out of the courtroom.
Edit: After listing to the whole thing once through, two tracks stood out (and there were at least a couple more which I liked): "Families" and especially the mournful, almost "Don't Be Denied" (from Time Fades Away- put that G-darn album out on CD, Neil!)-ish "Roger and Out".

 Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Review
There are too many reasons for me to list why it has that rating, but I'll say this: if you get sick when you see blood, don't even look at this game, and don't use a sword on someone else.
The cars won't explode as easily as they did in Grand Theft Auto III, which is nice for many reasons.
Compared with the last game, the characters in this game are a lot more interesting.

 Viewing Review @ Video Game City
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is an excellent video game achievement that ranks up as one of the best games of this generation and in the high list of the overall best.
The character models are more detailed, the cars have a new shine effect, the heat shimmer and lighting effects are also a nice touch but all of this along with a farther out draw distance come at the expense of performance in some instances.
GTAIII introduced us to the open ended aspect of the gameplay, whereas Vice City showed us the immense variety of its world, and now San Andreas attempts to show us how large this vision can be when put to the test on a much larger scale.

 Grand Theft Auto III
You appear outside the nearest hospital, minus a cool grand and all the weapons you had accumulated.
There are a few problems with little things like border detection in some places, as I occasionally pushed dumpsters and random set decoration through walls or fences, but with regards to the characters and the cars, no such problem exists.
There are 73 missions in the main story, 20 unique jumps to find and complete (taking a squad car up and over the elevated train tracks is a blast), 100 hidden packages to be found, and untold legions of gang members, mobsters, yakuza, law enforcement, and civilians to waste.

 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003): Paul Walker, Tyrese, Eva Mendes, John Singleton
There’s some dumb fun to be had there, especially in a closing chase that features about 200 cars.
But after this promising start, the film makes the tragic mistake of largely abandoning the intriguing world of illegal drag racing, instead dropping its characters into a generic action-movie story that could be found on any basic-cable channel.
But when the characters shift into park, the scenes play as flat as a Kansas highway.

 Electronic Gaming Monthly: Xbox Jacks Grand Theft Auto
Topping off the features list is a set of controls that come pre-set in two separate styles (Classic or Xbox) and are also fully customizable.
The Xbox has long suffered from a dearth of quality titles in which it's possible to carjack a sedan, use it to pick up a hooker and drive her to a secluded spot (say, to discuss politics), then beat her like a bass drum and steal her hard-earned ducats when she attempts to leave.
Reflection-mapping techniques serve to illustrate the differences between the game's cars, trucks, trains, and boats.

 Bathroom use on The Sopranos. By Richard B. Woodward
The characters may only be obeying nature's call, but references to this biological necessity are far rarer than nude or execution scenes—even in the history of the movies.
The Sopranos makes the hallmarks of the American family and of the American economy—the uncontrollable urge to own ever bigger homes and cars, to purchase more and more shit—look about as attractive as a fat man on the can with a bad case of the trots.
During Sunday night's episode of The Sopranos, Paulie Walnuts, in a philosophic moment, asked one of those imponderables that not even Aristotle or Descartes dared to tackle.

 J-List side blog
While the vast majority of Japanese can read the 1900+ joyo kanji (the so-called "general use" characters that all Japanese must learn by the time they graduate from high school), there are many very difficult characters that fall outside of the "official" lists, and thus, people aren't sure how to pronounce them.
I've updated the description to reflect one feature I forgot to list on Friday, a "disc memory" function that plays the disc from the last position you were watching when you turned the player off (a feature I am personally quite fond of).
The Japanese have an interesting sense of things sometimes, which never fails to impress me. A balding man with a comb-over and lines of hair on the top of his said is said to have "bar code hair," which is certainly an interesting way to look at things.

 Crime and Gangster Films
Often from poor immigrant families, gangster characters often fall prey to crime in the pursuit of wealth, status, and material possessions (clothes and cars), because all other "normal" avenues to the top are unavailable to them.
Crime plots also include questions such as how the criminal will be apprehended by police, private eyes, special agents or lawful authorities, or mysteries such as who stole the valued object.
Gangster/crime films are usually set in large, crowded cities, to provide a view of the secret world of the criminal: dark nightclubs or streets with lurid neon signs, fast cars, piles of cash, sleazy bars, contraband, seedy living quarters or rooming houses.
