Did You Know???
Halloween is a holiday that is celebrated on the night of October 31st.Children dress up in costumes,they go to people’s homes saying “Trick or treat!” they seek candy, sweets or some other type of goodies.
This practice originally involved a threat. A threat is when someone says that they will do something bad if they do not get what they want. In this case the threat could be explained as: “Give me a treat or I will play a trick on you.” Children today usually do not play tricks if they do not get treats. However some children still get up to mischief,they do things to make fun of people,like putting toilet paper in trees,removing gates from houses,writing on windows with soap or throwing eggs at people’s houses or something along those lines. People sometimes dress up as ghosts, witches, goblins and other scary things for Halloween.It has become very popular to have a halloween party.
The Pagan holiday Samhain,All Saints holy day replaced this,this was known as the Day of the Dead. Many Wiccans and modern Pagans celebrate the Day of the Dead. This is a happy holiday even though it celebrates Death. It is the day that the souls of dead people come back to Earth.Therefore, in Pagan religions it is not about scary things. It is about remembering family or friends who have died.
Many Lutheran churches celebrate a holiday on October 31st called The Reformation. This holiday celebrates the day that Martin Luther put The Ninety-Five Theses on a church door.
Halloween has seen the release of many famous halloween films,this has led to character costumes been developed,that have developed with ,including Scream Costumes,Chucky Costumes And Michael Myers Costumes And Face Masks.
It all began when being chased by Detective Mike Norris (Chris Sarandon), serial killer and voodoo practitioner Charles Lee “Chucky” Ray (Brad Dourif), is shot and mortally wounded. Before dying in his human body,Ray takes cover inside a toy store, finds boxes of “Good Guy” dolls, he uses a voodoo ritual to transfer his soul into one of them. The toy store is then struck by lightning burning it the ground. A doll called “Chucky” is found by a homeless man,he is sold to Karen Barclay, who gives him to her son Andy as a birthday gift.
Now here’s where the craic starts… Get you Chucky Costume Out!
While Karen is working late at night,Andy’s aunt Maggie agrees to baby-sit.When she got Andy to bed, which keeps Chucky from watching a news story about Edward “Eddie” Caputo (his former accomplice who had left him stranded on foot the night he was killed), he causes Maggie to fall out a window to her death (by hitting her in the head with a child’s hammer).
The next day, apparently upon Chucky’s request, Andy visits the house of Eddie Caputo (Neil Giuntoli). As Andy urinates outside, Chucky is revealed as being alive. He sneaks into Eddie’s house and blows out the pilot light on the stove and turns up the gas; Eddie, in panicked self-defense, fires his gun and the house explodes, killing him.
Andy is questioned by police about his presence at the explosion; he blames it on Chucky, and is placed in a psychiatric ward for a few days. Karen believes that Chucky is the culprit after finding that there were no batteries in his back. Karen tells Chucky to talk to her, or else she is going to throw him in the fire. Chucky then comes alive in her hands, bites her, and runs out of the apartment.
Karen contacts Mike, who is now investigating Aunt Maggie’s death. Although he initially doubts her story, he becomes a firm believer after he is attacked by Chucky in his car, and survives only by shooting Chucky in the shoulder.
Chucky later meets with John (a.k.a. “Dr. Death”), his voodoo instructor from years past, and asks why his gunshot wound bled. John, under torture through a voodoo doll, informs him that his body is slowly conforming to that of a human’s, and that he will soon be trapped in the body if he doesn’t transfer his soul into the body of the first person to whom he revealed himself (which is Andy). Chucky says he’s going to be 6 years old again.
Chucky murders John and leaves to find Andy. Mike and Karen find John before he dies, learning that Andy is in danger and that the only way to stop Chucky is to destroy his heart.
Andy escapes from the psychiatric unit as Chucky brutally kills the head doctor. Mike and Karen rush back to the apartment hoping that Andy is there. Chucky reaches the apartment through the furnace and knocks Andy unconscious with a baseball bat to possess him. After a prolonged struggle, Chucky is thrown into the fireplace by Karen where Andy drops a match, setting Chucky on fire. Thinking that Chucky is dead, Andy and Karen go to help the injured Mike. The heavily burned Chucky attacks again, finally stopping when Mike shoots him through the heart as John instructed.
And that is the story so far..He went on to appear in Child’s Play 2,Child’s Play 3,Bride of Chucky and the Seed of Chucky.
The Easter Bunny is a character depicted as a rabbit bringing Easter eggs, sometimes the rabbit is depicted with clothes.In legendary times,the creature brings baskets filled with colored eggs,candy and sometimes also toys to the homes of children on the night before Easter.The Easter Bunny will either put the baskets in a designated place or hide them somewhere in the house or garden for the children to find when they wake up in the morning.
The Easter Bunny is a counterpart to the Santa Claus of Christmas,they both bring gifts to children on the night before their respective holiday. It was first mentioned in Georg Franck von Frankenau’s De ovis paschalibus, referring to an Alsace tradition of an Easter Hare bringing Easter Eggs (and the negative impact of too much egg consumption).

Big Bird is a protagonist of the children’s television show Sesame Street.The funny character Big Bird like many of the other Sesame Street characters, is a Muppet character. He is sometimes referred to simply as “Bird” by his friends.See Big Bird Costume
It was officially performed by Caroll Spinney since 1969, big bird is an eight-foot two-inch tall bright yellow bird.
He can roller skate, ice skate, dance, sing, write poetry, draw and even ride a unicycle.But despite this wide array of talents, he is prone to frequent misunderstandings, on one occasion even singing the alphabet as one big long word (ABC-DEF-GHI), pondering what it could ever mean. He lives in a large nest behind the 123 Sesame Street brownstone which had to be completely rebuilt during Season 32 after it was destroyed by a hurricane,he has a teddy bear named Radar, after Walter “Radar” O’Reilly of M*A*S*H, who had a teddy bear and was also lovably naive and innocent. Radar was given to Big Bird by Gary Burghoff when he guest starred on the show.Later on however, it was said that Big Bird got the bear as a gift from Mr. Hooper. What is big bird??
In an episode of Sesame Street Big Bird was asked if he was related to the cassowary, he replied, “I’m more of a condor.” On a 1976 episode of Hollywood Squares, he said he was a lark.In the film, Don’t Eat the Pictures, Osiris calls Big Bird an ibis. Zoologist Mike Dickison hypothesizes that Big Bird, or Grandicrocavis viasesamensis, is a type of flightless crane.Judge for yourself!
This is obviously a very sensitive matter and one that requires and deserves serious consideration and analysis
At the start of the 2011 election Mr Kenny said Fine Gael recognised the importance of “the giving of hope and confidence to people through the taxation system”, when speaking to reporters outside party election headquarters in Dublin. “The Fine Gael party in this election is the only party that is categorically saying that there will not be any increase in income tax over our period in government,” he said. “There will be no increase in income tax.” He said the country needed strong government and not an administration that depended on the support of Independents. “I think that this is a time for courageous and strong government. It is not a time for government that might self-combust or that would be dependent on the whim of any mercenary Independents. This is a judgment call for the people.
Kenny refused to participate in the three-way leaders’ debate proposed by TV3, stating his unhappiness that Vincent Browne would chair the debate.In September 2010 Browne made a comment on his show that Kenny “should go into a dark room with a gun and bottle of whiskey”.Micheál Martin and Eamon Gilmore took part without him.Browne offered to step aside if Kenny would participate, but Kenny then stated that his schedule prevented him from attending the debate.Kenny was in Leitrim for Town hall style meeting that evening. During the meeting a man heckled him for several minutes.The heckler were later revealed to be a prankster.
On 11 February 2011, Kenny said he would not return ministerial severance payments of €40,000 he received in 1997, saying he took his payments in “different times”.
On 13 February , Kenny announced that he was going to brief Merkel on the state of the Irish economy.

If Banana Man eats lots of bananas in one sitting, he quickly becomes obese in his transformation; if he eats bananas that are not full, he transforms with extra weight in the lower part of his body.
