Halloween Costumes for Kids

It's time to start thinking about what to do for Halloween! With the economy improving, this might be a great time to splurge a little and get the kids something special for their costumes, instead of the ubiquitous white-sheet-with-eyeholes-cut-into-it, which is sooo last year's recession...

According to one article, "This Halloween as usual movie characters are very popular choices for adults, teenagers and children. Super heroes are always another popular choice especially for children. This year it looks like some retro themed costumes will be making their way to Halloween parties across the country...Michael Jackson...Jack Sparrow....superheroes....Harry Potter...GI Joe, Transformers, Hannah Montana and of course princess costumes. Also, many of the young boys will be wearing Mario or Luigi costumes. One of the hottest selling costumes for infants is the Baby Blossom outfit."

Save the Pandas! Giant Pandas Endangered

In case you haven't heard about this, a famed naturalist is calling for us to just let pandas "die out". I find this reprehensible, in light of the fact that it is humans that have ruined the habitats for the pandas, and anyway, ALL creatures deserve to survive. Here's the article...and beneath that are some t-shirts that celebrate the panda.

Let pandas die out, says naturalist
LONDON (Reuters Life) - Conservationists should "pull the plug" on giant pandas and let them die out, according to BBC presenter and naturalist Chris Packham.
"Here's a species that, of its own accord, has gone down an evolutionary cul-de-sac," Packham told Radio Times magazine.
The 48-year-old believes that money spent on conserving the panda would be better invested in other animals as the species is not strong enough to survive alone.
"It's not a strong species. Unfortunately it's big and cute and it's a symbol of the WWF (Worldwide Fund for Nature) -- and we pour millions of pounds into panda conservation." Link...
